The pattern uses two plain strips. I cut horses and cowboys out of my second strip. There are no fussy cuts in the pattern. My decision was to highlight the cowboys and horses, so I have 5" squares to join with strip #1. I think joining two squares would be easier that sewing the squares to the strip and trimming the joined unit to 5".
