Cutting instructions:

I used blue template plastic to make two templates.
The first HST is from a 4 7/8 square of plastic, cut once on the diagonal. This is labeled as A.

the first QST is from a 5 1/4 square of plastic, cut twice on the diagonal. This is labeled as B.

I came up with a good system to cut my "A" units without the plastic template, because I was either slicing the edges off it, or it was slipping. So I used the corner of a ruler that had a line to mark the center of the corner (a 45 degree line) and used masking tape placed carefully at the 4 7/8 marks -see photo.

Let's start with the zigzag green.
