But the trick is, I didn't cut hst, I cut squares. Then I drew a line from corner to corner and put the pairs together, and yesterday sewed either side of the line then cut them in half. It makes for perfect hst's, no stretched bias! So it took two movies to cut everything, mark the lines, and pair up the hsts. I had previously counted and written down how many combinations of each colour I would need.
