I have cut a lot of strips of both colors, and hope it's enough for this clue. Today I cut 5 sets, but haven't sewn the HSTs yet. I can tell already I am having a lot of scraps from this step as I am not very good at cutting at an angle and sometimes veer off a little. It's not much, but then I have to straighten the cut and loose just a bit. , there is no wiggle room for these mistakes, so then I have to find another scrap to get that last cut. Also, because I am using scraps, I have to use 2 shorter pieces to make a long enough strip for cutting and then I have scraps from both ends. I will put these scraps to use, I just don't like loosing so much of my fabric to the scrap box. LOL, OK, I get it that I am complaining about making scraps from my scraps. LOL
