Well, the center/first two strips changes with each of the two blocks. One has two centers the same size, so one light strip has to be cut at 1.5". The other block starts with the light at 1".
As Eleanor Burn's log cabin book teaches, I need to know if the "handle"--the last strip added, needs to be on the top or bottom as it's added to the next strip. I think in the basic log cabin it's on top--but I'd hae to check. In the new design--the ones posted here--the handle is always at the bottom. I'd have to make the other one to see if that one is the same. If I've been away from them for awhile, I look at a completed square to get me started. Finally I got smart and made notes. I've sold every project I've made with these blocks, so am always careful to keep a few extras--at least half way done.
Thank you for so many kind replies. :-D
