I sewed scraps into strips roughly 13 inches long, then the strips together about 36 inches. That gave me enough length to cut about 3 triangles with my 12 inch ruler. I would work with pieces about 30-40 inches long and cut a few blocks out at a time. That seemed to be a good compromise between cutting several pieces at once and not having fabric that was too unwieldy.
