I find I sometimes have to sew two or three WOF strips together to get the legth of border I need. Using the diagonal seams make them less noticeable. I don't cut long strips from LOF, Seems like a waste of fabric. I would rather save it for another project. Just me.
If you have never tried LOF borders you should give it a try on a small lap quilt or baby quilt. LOF is wonderful for borders Lays nice and flat, no seams and no stretched edges. Remaining fabric can be incorperated into the quilt of backing or binding.
