I don't think it is too strong, however you could test it by covering up a bit of the outsides of the strip to see if you like it a little narrower, then trim it if you are sure. Best of luck with this bonus project. PaulaB quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03850498636712774853noreply@blogger.com
