The LC block is a very forgiving block. I made this offset (curved) LC using 1.5" and 1" strips and did not PP. Yes a few of them came out a wee bit wonky. But can you find any of them?

I precut all my logs which helps some and there were a few cases of stretch but all in all it was no trouble to get the quilt together. Each LC unit measured 6 1/2" and each block consists of 4 units. I used my regular 6 1/2" square ruler to check each one as I completed it. I didn't worry for the ones that were 1/8" off. Any square ruler will work. It went together really fast and easy. It was my "mindless" sewing project. Now to find time to quilt it.
I would proceed assembling the quilt without PP. Why add the extra work? Your parents are sure to love the quilt no matter what, because YOU made it especially for them.
Edited to add, LOVE your Avatar. What a beautiful GSD. I have two Shilohs and they are the lights of my life. GSD is 3rd smartest breed of dog, right behind border collie and poodle.
