This is what I do. I think I read about this over at Quiltville. I figure if I measure it, there's a chance that I will cut wrong - been know to do that. I just lay the top out flat and smooth the borders (or sashing) flat down the the center, then I place a thin cutting mat under neath and rotary cut.
