    The width depends on the pattern... Look... we don't have a tradition on quilting in my country. We are growing in this art from2 or 3 decades only. We need to use imported fabrics, and it turns it very expensive. So, there's not a rule... for example, this kind of fabric, Jinny Beyer, fabric, it is cut on 2 or 3 strips, depending on the pattern...

    And yes, it pretty much for quilting uses, it is sold on quilt stores...

    Your points are perfect! I love the fabric. Too bad our screens are so small. I bet it is smashing up close. :thumbup:

    Yes, I do adore Jiny's fabric. And she is a very nice lady as well... last week I was watching a video where she was receiving Ricky Tims in her beautiful centennial house! :wink:

    You're doing absolutely fine with your English! And you know what, the more you're on these Boards, the better it'll get! On another Board, I saw a young French girl go from stumbling with her words, to getting quite good at typing in English!!!

    I ~s~m~i~l~e~d~ when I noticed you'd been stalking me too! Enjoy!!! my new Brazilian amigo! :)
