Has anyone made TURNING TWENTY INTO DIAMONDS?
 

I have Turning Twenty Just Got Better, and one of the variations is Turning Twenty Into Diamonds, on page 13.
I don't understand one of the instructions. It says to make the blocks following Twisting Turning Twenty, except "we did NOT cut the 3-1/2"x16-1/2" strips". What does that mean? The only thing I can figure is that you don't need those strips since they are used for the border of the Twisting Turning Twenty, and not for the border of the TT Into Diamonds. But don't you still have to cut them to get the correct sized pieces you need to construct the block? Hope I'm being clear. Thanks!
