I hope my question here doesn't sound stupid.
How do you deal with projects which require you to make cuts of 44" strips? As fabric usually come in widths of 44/45", it's quite impossible to get an exact 44" if you cut away both selvages.
Hope to get some advice here. Thanks.

It is difficult, as some of the fabric is only 42" wide too, and some of the selvages are getting wider...
You may have to piece these together or cut the fabric on the length instead of across the width :D:D:D
