A single sheet on a bight or spliced eyes work great if you always leave the sheets attached to that particular sail. This is actually not a bad idea if you want to do that, your sheets for the 150 are going to be longer than necessary for the blade jib, so having dedicated sheets can keep the cockpit cleaner when conditions warrant the smaller headsail.
