I also have Marti Michelles' LC ruler; have used it for 2 quilts and love it. Prior to that I made at least a dozen using Eleanor Burns method. Both are easy. Just make sure you SQUARE UP AS YOU GO or your cabins won't line up. Also, do your best to sew an accurate 1/4"; sure makes squaring up easier.
