I am making a Mother's Dream quilt for my daughter. I was reviewing the cutting directions and came across this:
Next speed piece the half squares, by stacking the Color 1 and Color 2 3-7/8" x 7-3/4" strips, right sides together and all edges aligned. On the back of the top strip, lightly mark the 3 7/8" square line and mark the diagonals in the direction shown at left. Now sew a SCANT 1/4" above and below the marked diagonals, pivoting at the square lines. Now cut apart ON the marked diagonals, and on the 3-7/8" square line. This will give you four half squares. Press seam allowances towards the darker fabric. Trim these back to measure 3-1/2" if needed. Repeat this with a Color 1 and Color 3 3-7/8" x 7-3/4" strip set to make four more in that color combo...

I have never read the instruction "Speed Piece" before. Do these directions make sense to you? I am very visual and am trying to wrap my brain around this.
