I finished clue 5 after dinner tonight, and pressed my green fabrics to start on clue 6 tomorrow. Hoping to get everything cut tomorrow, and pieced/pressed/trimmed on my day off on Thursday.
This week I learned I can comfortably cut 4 layers of fabric at a time now without losing accuracy, but 6 layers wiggles a little too much under my ruler. I also discovered it is much, much faster to lay out 15-20 hsts in a row and trim the dog ears all at once.
I have been making hst with the square method as my leader/enders, and I am getting much better results by sewing them one at a time like Bonnie does with her triangle ruler, despite the seam going down the bias edge. My seams on those squares are all over the place.
