I did spend a bit of time cutting yesterday.  Now sewing though.

Do you know how many FQ it takes to cut out 700 half square triangles using the Easy Angle ruler and 2" strips?
  <<<< FIVE Fat Quarters !!!!
Thank goodness I had picked up exactly 5 more FQ the last time I was at LQS (thinking that would be plenty and I would have leftover to add to stash)
HA!  was I wrong.    I have one strip less than 2" wide.

I've had to put Orca on hold this week to concentrate on Christmas.   I'll have a house full for Christmas so my blocks will have to sit and wait until Monday for sure.
Thanks for stopping by....

  5. Wow, that's a lot more fabric than I thought it would be! I haven't started step 5 yet, but hopefully it will go fast once I do. Great work!
