where did you find this method of cutting the logs in strips? It sounds so much easier.

I go on and on..... so much easier.... just keep your colors straight (I usually make one block for a sample). I made a log cabin quilt, queen size, in a week using this method. I can't imagine cutting tons of logs.... that would drive me crazy.
