Mystery Week Three

After my frustrations with this "half chevron" unit earlier in the week, I decided to cut and sew them differently:

Diamonds and triangles cut with the Easy Angle ruler, chain piecing with ease.

Ready for pressing:

First side pressed, ready for the second triangle:

And after the second triangle was added:

They still need their bunny ears trimmed off. As I go through them, any that are not quite right I will cut down for the HSTs we need this week. Because I haven't started that part of the requirements yet! I will use the "magic 8" method when I get to them.

Hopefully it is not too late for me to join the link-up. It is here, anyway, so you can check out everyone else's fantastic progress on Good Fortune!
