I cut most of my strips 1 3/4" wide. It seems log cabin blocks can become a bit off and having the wider strip allows me to compensate. I make my log cabin blocks from lots of left over strips from other projects.

Eleanor Burns's book "log cabin in a day" was her first book and my first "real" quilt. I still use her method. It's quick and easy, although the acuquilt sounds good to me, now.
