I can't thank you enough Sue Fish for this tip, my Patchwork Class ladies and I love it and now do this method a lot on most of our quilts and the effect when using chosen colours is fab as you can see here!

Scroll to top of page and you will see just at the top of the topic 3 tabs, the left one says "Bookmark" click on that give it a name and et voila it's in your "My Bookmarks"

I wanted a wider strip than the adding machine tape would make so I cut up an old phone book into strips and used those. Also figured out that the fabric strips were easier to keep straight as I could use the lines of print on the phone book paper to align them. It's also much easier to tear off.
