The above group will make approximately 300 HS triangle blocks. This is about 50 more than I need to complete my project but I figure while I am in the mode of cutting and making these I would go ahead and do so. The extras will go in my "1 1/2" box for future scrappy projects. Plus I am going to mix in some of the squares I made in this post with these blocks. So, I will have plenty.
The next step is to slice on the marked line and press open. This is a bit tedious but something I don't mind doing because I can sit and watch TV as I put them in a slotted box to keep them organized. After I press I put them in in no particular order because they will come back out to be trimmed to 1 1/2 inches square.
Hezzie loves to be part of the action. He kept his head here for several hours while I pressed the squares open. He doesn't find this tedious at all......
Even when I would get up to take a break and come back, he would lay his head back down. Such a loyal companion. :)
