    Love this, I have fall fabric I was wanting to do this with a couple years ago now I am for sure going to get into my stash and use this idea. It's exactly what I wanted and a more formal finish with the top stitch than the rolled him I could use. I just love the more tailored finish. Thank you Blessings

The technique is the same as shown in our Slice Rug video here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/77/how-to-make-a-slice-rug After your desired strips are sewn, just measure out the length/width you'd like, and trim the piece(s), then bind it.
