I had to press and cut more fabric because of the size of strips/pieces needed. So I spent a fair amount of time doing that. Then a bit more time trying to piece. I say “trying” because of this…
I finally managed to finish piecing the first step of this clue. And I finished one set of the second step (cutting off and adding those final triangle pieces). I laid them out, and though I know they likely won’t even come close to this layout for the final quilt, I love putting the pieces together to see what designs happen. Who knows, they could be inspiration for future quilts!
As you say, while it may not be how Bonnie has planned the step to be used, I hope you have a few extra to try some alternative things or even get to incorporate your guesses into your RT project anyway!
