I cut my strips 2 inches wide. You can use whatever size you want, just be consistant.

Pick the two strips you want for the foundation square.

Sew those two strips together

cut them into two inch segments (if using two inch strips)

Press open

Choose next strip and sew these segments to it

To cut into segments line up your ruler on the bottom and the side

continue adding strips until you get the block the size you want.
