You can put some thin tape on your 12 1/2 inch ruler to mark the 12 1/4 inch size. That will make the trimming easier.

When I do less than 1/4 inch seam, I add another line of stitching to prevent fraying.

Trim the Log Cabins just a sliver all around. No one will even notice.

I had something very similar happen, and I just eased them together when I sewed, and after I quilted it up (using my LA) you can't tell. It wasn't that hard to ease in 1/4" over 12 inches.

If your ruler has lines on it just adjust the cutting line, then flip the ruler the other way and finish squaring up the square.
