Pre cut, of course. I love them.

I use pre cut ones but my mother has been making her own with index cards.

I am using the precut. They are all the same size and I don't have to worry about them being off.

I use the precuts. I started by cutting my own and found it was too time consuming so I purchased some. They work much better for me.

I'm using precut that can be reused.

The above weblink is an excellent tutorial for using the MYLAR precut hexes templates - they're punched in the center so you can pop out the template with a chopstock (or whatever) after the hex is "basted" into shape.

The mylar works far better than paper or cardboard and doesn't have its sides compromised after several uses - when tracing or sewing with them, often the sides get worn within just a few uses (traces) because of the softer nature of the card stock. You can get a set of 50 or so of these in a pack, so you can get pretty far ahead in prep work, to be able to sit down and baste-baste-baste before more trace-trace-trace. The website also has links to the mylar pop-out templates).

I have tried several methods and this is the only one that works for me.

This is how I have done GFG also, although I didn't have a Go! at the time. I bought a metal non-slip window template from http://www.ardcotemplates.com/ and cut strips the width of the template, then used the template to cut stacked strips into the hex shape. These days I'd use the Go!
