    Hand piecing does not have to require a lot of prep. I learned by watching a Jinny Beyer video years ago. All she does is cut out the pieces and sew (using a single strand of thread). She "eyeballs"...

    The Stripology (this is the rectangular mat, not the square one) has slots that are 12.5" long, and there are 20 slots a half inch apart.

    Patchwork, the JT comes in multiple sizes. The JT Pro is similar in size to the rectangular Stripology. Like mhollifiel above, I find the dimensions of the JT better.

    sarose48, just to be clear, Linda's PDF is for an 11" finished log cabin block. This is the one that uses 2" strips but has a center square that is cut 2.5" as you requested.

    You might want to splurge on wool batting too (Hobbs or Quilter's Dream). It is washable, but lightweight and warm. It also shows quilting beautifully.

    You can adjust the size of the center square, I think, to use 2" strips and end up with a finished block size of 12". I might try to do this in EQ7 later on to see what happens.
