Considering....

Tumbler layout options:
This is the original stack of 1200 3" tumblers.
My mother in law wanted to start sewing right away.
She started with a 1/2/1/2 configuration.
The pattern  creates white strips in a way.
Then she laid out this: 
1/2/1/2/1
 2/1/2/1/2
which looks more scrappy and she settled on it.
I am considering my options here.
I still haven't decided how I will configure my tumblers.


p.s. giveaway still going on, comment on this POST.
