I cut my quilting squares and binding along the salvage. Since I buy 2 yd of fabric at a time, it's a nice large piece to work with instead of cutting salvage to salvage and having smaller pieces to work with. I do cut salvage to salvage when I have a small piece that's wider than long. It all works...do what feels right for you! :roll:

I cut my borders lengthwise on the fabrics because I don't like the pieced look. I also cut the binding lengthwise if I use the border fabric for the binding.
|
That's what I'd do.

It should work; I've done it before without any problems.
