I usually don't do all my cutting at one time. I'll cut everything for the blocks, but I wait until they're put together before cutting the sashing and borders so I can get the size right. I'll make one block to see how it will go together. Then I do one step on each block and press before moving to the next step.

Typically, I will do one sample block.... to confirm measurements.... then off to the assembly line.... cut, sew, press... hut 1,2,3. ;-)
Sometimes the "prep" time seems to take FOREVER... but it is worth it. To me, it is just more efficient.

When I was starting, the teacher for our guild gave a talk about people who were "process" and "product" oriented in their creation. By her terms, I am product oriented, as I want to see what happens as I go along. It actually takes a bit longer, but I cut some, then sew some.
