Margo, your link on striplate hints on the Daily Blog isn't working. Sorry, but I find getting a message to you is easier than finding tech support.

Started part 2 of this last night. Used the 1 3/4 measure to cut my strips as suggested. Gave me enough wiggle room to not struggle when I piecing. Here's how I cut them. Used the template glued to plastic. Marked with a frixon pen then used the ruler and rotary cutter to cut. Each strip gives me 32 pieces and a one big enough for the 1/2 at the end. The frixon pen will disappear when pressed with a hot iron. Generally this is in the seam allowance anyway so it's not a big deal.

I stack 3 strips at a time so that's 6 layers. That's all I'll do at once.

Thanks for looking. Keep sewing!
