I’ve decided to call this Saw Mill. The block starts with these large 8 1/2” HST blocks.
Next, I placed them on my 2” strip die. Notice they are all oriented the same way. I used my AccuQuilt Studio die, but there is a GO! Die that you can use as well.
This is what I ended up with.
And just some tiny slivers of waste.
I rearrange my strips like this.
You can see after sewing them back together, I end up with a block that measures 6 1/2 inches by 8 1/2 inches.
I’m only doing this version, but by turning your HSTs before cutting them into strips, you can get a mirror image block.
Back to sewing. Have a great day!

If you check out my blog (see more quilts.blogspot.com), you’ll see I have these same blocks in progress, lol. It hadn’t occurred to me to use the Studio strip cutter on the blocks, duh!
Yay! Glad I could help!
This has been on my bucket list for quite a while. I will most definitely be doing it this way for sure. Thank you.
