I've only ever seen it done by foundation paper piecing. Like Bobbinalong said, the weird corner angles would likely make the ruler not work. That being said, does your ruler allow for different width strips? You could try doing a test block with 1" strips on two adjacent sides (say, top and left) and 2" strips on the other two sides. I don't know how that would work with the corner strips, though; I've never been able to wrap my head around the geometry of this block.
If you do foundation piecing, I linked a pattern in my reply to Bobbinalong. It's been on my To Do list for years!
