ACTUAL COMPLETION OF PART 5
Completed my 32 HSTs in no time. I used the Magic Eight method, seen in Blossom Heart Quilts and on Gogle, which is the easiest for me. I tried cutting from strips but it was too slippery with the Easy Angle Ruler. To mark my large squares for stitching and cutting, I lay the top fabric on sandpaper, so no slipping. After stitching the whole large block I press it flat before cutting the pieces apart. I trim them to size before pressing them open, so only one edge needs trimming. Then I press them open. I hope this may help those of you who may be all thumbs or shaky like me.
Here are samples of my Parts 3 and 4. Please pardon the lighting, done late at night.
I'm feeing more on top of things now. I hope you are all coming along nicely as well.
