The shifting issue might not be so bad if you sew one row in one direction, and the next row sew back the other way. I do this when I'm piecing long strips and it seems to help things stay more even.

The lesson basically is this: Don't put your design all the way to the edge, give yourself some wiggle room!

I've never done a chenille effect, so here comes a newbie question: How do you make sure that you cut only the layers you want to cut?
Thanks!
