Betty, the colors will go up and down both. if you get confused, lay it out on a table and arrange a few at a time, pin together and sew those. Sometimes I've had to do that, takes a while, but after a few strips you should be back in order.
The 1" strips are a pain....aren't you glad I didn't have you cut those 3/4 of an inch? I've only done a couple with the smallest piece at 3/4"...that was enough for me.

Was so disgusted with myself was ready to throw it in the trash.
Hope I'm doing this right. The 1" pieces are really a challenge with only 1/2" showing never worked with such tiny pieces.
