When sewing your strip sets together; should you alternate sewing from top to bottom and then bottom to top? to avoid getting a bowing effect? I am doing a small section to go with a panel , and I am starting to notice a bow about half way through. Elaine

I sew sets of two together until I have all them in sets of two. When I get through sewing those, if there is one left (an orphan) I sew it to the last set of two. Then start the next chain piecing with two of the twos togehter until I get to the end.

Olga,
I was just admiring your bargello - it has such depth and though those are not fabrics I would chose they work wonderfully. Guess I need to branch out more and be brave enough to use more pastels.
Sincerely - your bargello quilt top is beautiful.

It would take about a week or so, because I'm going out of town for a few days.
