Cut -

 

 

The strata are cut - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Marigold - 

 

 

I use my strip cutter die -

With 5 strips across the width of the die -

And can cut 2 sets of strata at a time - 

So each "row" above has the parts for two blocks - 

And needs to be sorted - later - 

The "end cuts" - rolled up on the left side of the cookie sheet - 

Give me a LOT of scraps -

Since I fan-fold the strata in thirds - 

I get two skinny bits at the "folds" - 

And two "selvage" ends - one skinny and one larger - 

 

 

Then I can "un-sew" them like I'm doing - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Pastel Brights - 

The scraps are good for my Scrap Card and Heart - 

And for "crumb" blocks - 

And other "scrap" projects - ;))

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
