    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

    Cut into segments
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]169246[/ATTACH]

    Press, add next strip

    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.

    Sure does shorten the measuring time it takes to make the log cabin block.
