As to the block you sure don`t need a special ruler just a 45% I just finished! Boy were those trapezoids ever hard to sew to the diamonds took them apart too many times to count but well worth it.
I feel if you can do this block you can do anything!
Yes pp maybe is the way to go but I wanted to try just cutting but ended up using templates which din`t turn out to bad.
I know you don't need the ruler but it makes it so much easier & her instructions are very good & her video is even better. I love this Hunter's Star & would do another again anytime.
Yes, the forest fire situation is much better but unfortunately some of the fire has gone underground & could smolder there for weeks or months & when the conditions become just right we could be right back where it all started. Hopefully that will not happen. We keep hoping for rain but only have received a little. We are expecting extremely high temps starting tomorrow (high 30's) so don't know what that will bring. We sure appreciated all the help & prayers we received & will be eternally grateful to ALL the people who bravely fought these fires & continue to do so.
Thank you for asking.

P.S. Like your block very much !!
