Celtic Solstice, Part 1

I've worked on Celtic Solstice this weekend.  All of my part one pieces are cut.  I am using Deb Tucker's V-Block ruler for this step.  I've used the Tri Recs in the past, and I haven't been happy with my accuracy using it.  The V-Block ruler is very forgiving in your cutting and sewing, but you have to trim down at the end. I am willing to do that trimming for the sake of accuracy.

Here's a real life picture of my blocks in progress.  It looks chaotic, but I have a system.



 Some of my blocks are sewn but not trimmed.

 
I should have most of these units complete by the time the next clue comes out, but I do have a little bit of Christmas sewing to do too.
