Sure! Have you ever heard of Bonnie Hunter's enders/leaders quilts? This would be a perfect candidate.

I made a triple Irish Chain prior to the rotary cutter with templates and sissors. That being said, I don't think I would want to make an Irish chain without rotary cutting and strip piecing, its so much more precise.

I 've been a quilter since the day of making templates from cardboard and using scissors, so all my quilts were done this way...including the Irish chains. Yes, it's do able, but it is more time consuming,tedious for accuracy and frankly it adds so much interest in the fabric "sparkle" when completed. Just my thoughts.
