I think I did fairly well at eliminating any slight curve in my strips, but I didn't find it as easy to cut using a longer ruler as I thought I would (and I am more apt to get that little bend when folding the fabric 2x before cutting). Makes me think of an Accuquilt, cutting is my nemesis right now, no matter how slowly and carefully I go.
You won't regret the Accuquilt system if you get one. You won't have those little curves in your strips any more and it is so quick an accurate. Of course I have no affiliation with Accuquilt just a reborn user and in love with the system.
