The quilt in your avatar has at least that many bis/bias edges <g> and it looks like you did fine with it.
Sewing bias edges is a good time to learn to let go of control issues. It is one of those times when you GUIDE the fabric rather than WRESTLING it to keep it in line ... a light hand, and you will have not problems with either type of edge. <wave>
cute, though ... I didn't catch it until you pointed it out. LOL

Plus I would starch the living daylights out of it first before cutting! From doing OBWs I've learned that bias is my FRIEND - sometimes the little bit of streeeetchhhhh is what I need to make everything maaaaatchhhh! :lol:

I love your version of the runner with the sashing! Have to try that! :-D

the quilt in my avatar is "Strip Twist" mentioned here awhile back.(check the SEARCH) It is all done in strips. I sew-d, THEN cut. Very easy, VERY effective with lots of colors and NO BIAS. I'll try to stop wrestling my bias strips. Some of my squares weren't the same size (how did THAT happen??) so I was REALLY thankful for some of that streeeeeetch.....

Gotchya! Sort of like Bonnie Hunter's Weed Wacker ... It is a lovely quilt, by the way, if I didn't already say it.
You are correct ... stretch can be our friend <g> ...
sometimes, I am just underwhelmed with how inaccurate my best rotary cutting turns out :?
On the other hand, since not being perfect means I get to practice my art more, it can't all be a bad thing, eh? 8-)
