This is fascinating!! I'm intrigued and definitely need to try it...I can't quite imagine the cutting part in my head!!! Can't see how you would get one continuous length of fabric!!! LOL!!! So I'm gonna have to try it out....thanks!!!

You have to be sure to offset the lines you've drawn rather than matching them exactly when you sew the seam. Just follow the instructions carefully. It works really well and is the way I always make bias strips.
