Personally I feel that using the sizing on the block really helps with squaring it up. I still have a problem sometimes. If I am cutting a block that is just a two piece block, I always add 1/2 " to the block and there is lots of room for squaring up. Some of the well-know quilters do this and that is where I got it. I always use sizing on all my blocks and it is the one tool that really is helpful to me. Try both ways and see what works for you.
