RollRoll Cotton Boll - Update

I have finally started Step 5. I have stayed with the clues but really thought I was going to fall behind this week, between the broken foot and the 600 HST's I thought I was doomed.  Well I finally found a little routine for me.... I cut up enough pairs to fill up the top of my 6.5 x 24 ruler, carry it over to the sewing machine - chain piece the units, iron the units, and then as I am cutting of the dog ears I count and place them in piles of 25.  I then line up the piles on the edge of my ironing board and put in rows of 4, which of course I know 4 piles=100.  I ended up sewing 211 already..which really isn't that bad...especially since I am sewing left footed and I really am not that coordinated----I tend to leave my foot on the pedal a little longer than necessary, but that is OK.. I am going to have to deal with it for the next couple of months until my foot heals, but at least I am able to sew.

Part 5 - The first 114

At the rate I am going I may be done before the next clue comes out, if not, well I have a week to catch up on both clues.

Take a few minutes to sew everyday, it helps maintain your sanity.
