EDIT UPDATE -
Since posting this post -
I designed a LEFT-HANDED ruler to cut HST and QST -
LEFT-HANDED!! -
No more Flippin' rulers!! -
I call it a LEFT-EZE™ Rule -
Check it out on my other blog - HERE - ;))
===
Another thing that I use -
To make HSTriangle blocks -
Is called “Triangles on a Roll™”
It’s really cool stuff -
I have several different sizes -
The top roll - Green -
Will make 735 -
QST - 2” finished squares
The second one - Red -
Will make 1200 -
HST - 1” finished squares
The bottom one is -
What I have left of the roll -
That makes -
HST - 2” finished squares
They come in real handy -
When I only need a couple of blocks -
And not a bunch of “multiples” -
Or you can use the Easy Angle Ruler -
Like I showed you - here -
Or you can use Triangulations -
Like I did - here -
I love how there are SO many different ways -
To do the SAME thing -
I think that is what makes quilting so much FUN -
So - try everything -
Find a method that YOU like -
And USE that one - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
I remember seeing something similar in Pre-Quilting Days. It was for a log cabin.....Maybe that is what started my obsession with log cabin quilts! I agree with you re. trying things out and finding what suits us. GOOD advice.
