Glad you could figure out the steps for the project. There are such different methods for this technique. Sometimes instructions just seem backwards and somehow we find our own way is better. LOL.
You have inspired me to try a block or two to see what it is all about. It is a beautiful detail in the quilt blocks. I'm still not sure why the re-hooping step is needed. To help with re-hooping mark the corners of the hoop with a removable marking pen. That way you have reference points.
Have fun!
