I guess I am the odd man out because I would first cut the 12 inch width off the fabric and cut it down to the 2 inch widths. This is my reasoning. The long twelve inches need to be stable, so the length is the most stable side of the fabric. The fabric would give you 20 strips on the first strip after being cut down, You then cut the remaining strip only partially, so you have enough to make up the 8 remaining needed 2 inch strips. Which if it is doubled would be four inches. Then use the width of fabric for the other strips that aren't so long.
