    I agree with most here. I make one single block to make sure everything is accurate (usually just the work of the cutter and piecer). Then I chain piece...course I make mostly samplers...but the bedsize one block repeats I chain pieced. Make one first, then cut all the rest and organize in baggies or manila folders with snaps.
