I pieced a log cabin quilt a couple of years ago using Judy Martin's method of cutting all the sizes before sewing. It seemed to take forever to cut everything, but I was glad I did once I started sewing.
I'm in the midst of cutting out strips for a log cabin-like quilt, this time using the 12" X 24" June Tailor Shape Cutter Plus with the slots. Making a cutting map to cut the various sizes on the lengthwise grain as Judy Martin recommends was a real time-saver.
