Ringo Lake Clue 2 and 3

Clue 2  was a difficult one for me and I really don't know why.  I haven't had trouble in the past with making flying geese and getting the seam allowance room at the top. I think I did about twice as many as were required.  I ripped out and remeasured and resewed many many geese.  I finally finished on Thursday night. I used Bonnie's essential triangle ruler for both.  I will have to try using the folded corner ruler in the future and see if I get better accuracy.  Maybe I should have used the oversized square.

Clue 3 was not as hard.  I really like the folded corners ruler.  I used it with Bonnie's essential triangle ruler.  I thought everything was going excellently because I could tell when my triangles weren't cut perfectly because they didn't line up with the angle and length of the diamond cut by the folding corner ruler.  Well I had 20 that I had to redo.  Most were sewn inaccurately and a few were cut inaccurately.  The batik corner triangles were the most problematic.
