![]() Many times I have said that I don’t get stressed about perfect blocks. If you are using a larger square ruler just slide the ruler up to the top seam allowance, line it up to the point and then cut. Note: I had to turn the ruler around because I was using a ruler that is only 5 inches wide. There will be a couple of stitches at the top of the block but they will pull out easily. Next, turn the ruler around so the writing is backward and line up the 45-degree line with the seam allowance again and cut the block. ![]() Most long rulers have a 45-degree line on them, I laid that line on the seam allowance of my strip tube and then cut off the corner. Both sides are sewn with a ¼ inch seam allowance to form the tube. Sew down one side of the tube and then turn around and sew the other side in the opposite direction to keep your tube from bowing. Now that you have two strips sets sewn, place them right sides together with opposite fabrics facing.
