The HST steps down a step in each bar.

Just remember two things. 1) To finish at 8”, the total length of the 2 strips in each row will always be 11”. 2) the diagonal lines change direction: first up the mountain, then down the mountain. The Jenny Doan tutorial doesn’t use strips; it uses big HST, cuts them apart then puts them back together.
