I am making my Swoon blocks with all HST's instead of some flying geese blocks. That means a LOT of HST's. A. LOT.
I am one that likes to prepare all the pieces before starting assembly. I have ONE block assembled of 9. And, so, by my calculations I need 336 more HST's. I really HOPE I did my figuring right and this is 336 blocks pressed and ready to trim. Yes, I have to TRIM all of these blocks, EEEK! Although, I did go ahead and press the seams open on these, so the next 8 should be neater and lay flatter than my first block (I didn't realize how bulky some of the seams would be by pressing to the side like I normally do!) I have to take trimming little by little as it seems my left thigh goes numb when standing at the cutting table too long :P It's been doing that for some time now, one of the consequences of getting old, egads :P
