Cut a strip of fabric W/O/F by 1-1/4" wide.

Press fabric strip as shown in 1st photo, both edges in, overlapping.

Thanks for the tutorial.

I agree totally! I am a daily reader, can hardly wait each morning to read all the postings, but also a real newbie, only 6 mo or less and get soooo very confused with the abbreviations, some explanation somewhere would be very helpful....but as all the other ladies have mentioned, I learn so much every time I am here, really appreciate all the expert advise and goodwill shown by all.

Could you use ribbon with this process as well? If so, how wide would you want the ribbon to be?

What a great idea, I'll have to try it. I would think silk ribbon, 1/2" wide would work up beautiful, especially is hand dyed!

Here is a block where I used a red floral calico fabric, total different look
