Clarification please ... you mentioned 3-1/2" strips could be held off in cutting.
In the original instructions you cut 3-1/4" strips from A ...... so I'm thinking this is one and the same ... and should these trips be 3-1/4" or 3-1/2"???
For those of us who have already cut, and those to follow ... what is the correct measurement?
Please? and Thanks!

I'm in with red, black and white
Well, I said that I was going to use this to expand my color horizons, but I guess I'm not, unless I try to do two! I'm going with my favorite red, black and white. What do you think?
If the photo comes up properly, the A fabric (buttons) is on the left, and the F fabric (red with stitching and needles) is on the right.
