I have read most raq quilt instructions tell you to do the snipping all at one time at the end of the process.
I clip right after I sew the blocks or rows together, as I go along. It doesn't seem to hurt anything as far as I can tell, and it keeps me from clipping all those blocks/rows at one time.
