Hunter Star -

I swear these guys look the same to me -

Frontwards -

And backwards -

Until you flip them over and try to match them -

Then you can tell that some of them aren't "right" -

Like the one on the RIGHT - LOL -

But if you match the top FLAT edge - it will work when you press it open -

And there IS a LEFT and RIGHT side to them -
Which I did NOT notice as I removed them from the die -

EVEN though the die instructions are CLEARLY labeled A - B - C - AR -
My pea brain totally missed the "R" part in the AR for REVERSE - LOL -

The A shape goes on the LEFT side of the trapezoid -
The AR shape goes on the RIGHT side of the trapezoid -

BUT it still doesn't say which way the FLAT end or the POINTY end go -
And because this is my "reference" post for this particular die -
NOTE TO SELF - FLAT end goes to the MIDDLE of the trapezoid - LOL - ;))

And - because I mistakenly thought they were the same shape -
By this time - I had them totally mixed up -

So -

Once I got them re-sorted -

I was moving right along -

Until I got to this guy -

Why do I ALWAYS seem to have something going the wrong way? -
Just keeping it "real" - showing my progress - warts and all - LOL -
NOTE TO SELF - Pay attention - sew WRONG sides together - LOL - ;))

So I fixed that one -
Right about the time my delivery arrived -

And then I added the top triangles -
Love how the dog-ears on the ends line up -

But I was worried about those angled dog-ears on the ends of the BLUE -

Until I pretended that I was going to sew them together -

And layered them -

And they matched -

On both ends -

I got the RIGHT ends on the BLUE ones -

And got ready to sew the LEFT ends on -

But decided to stop there for the day -

The YELLOW ones are done -

And I want to get back to the binding on Sunday -

Since I'm not expecting ANY more deliveries -

Until sometime next week - LOL -

So they can wait until I want/need to sit at my machine in front of the window -

To catch the delivery guy when he drops off a package -

In case he doesn't knock on the door - or ring the doorbell -

To let me know that I have a package waiting to be stolen - LOL - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
