Yes, I did just cut on the outline with no seam allowance except for the pieces that were the outer edge. The pieces that make up the outer edge I included the 1/4 inch seam allowance, if you don't do this then the block will be short all the way around. I also cheated and didn't baste my pieces, I used washable stick glue. I would never do this on a big project like a grandmothers flower garden. When I had all the pieces sewn together I soaked the block for a few minutes and removed the paper backing, pressed the triange and squared it up. Hope this helps.
