Cutting Log Cabin Strips - 4 of 4

Cutting Log Cabin Strips to Length
Marti demos the From Marti Michell Log Cabin Rulers. Blocks come out square and the correct size because cutting strips to the exact length is more accurate than other methods.
The pattern for Rachel's Baskets, hanging in the background, is in her book Log Cabin ABCs. You can see the full quilt on our Web site at www.frommarti.com/show_LC_bskt... The fabrics are from Marti's Wild Rose line by Maywood Studio.
:10 Cut lengths in alphabetical order.
1:00 Put the "a" line on the trued-up end of the strip. Cut and you will get a new trued-up end, etc.
3:17 Explore the joys of chain-piecing cut-to-length strips. It is faster, easier and more accurate than other methods. Marti demos the timesaving achieved by chain-piecing cut-to-length strips vs. chain-piecing small units to a long strip and cutting the strip last.
5:20 Every time you chain piece a cut-to-length piece, it confirms your accuracy!
Thank you for watching.
