designing a quilt on point
#1
I am making a crumb quilt and want to set my squares on point. There is a lot of help out there for figuring the corner and side triangles, but I also want to add sashing. One site said to add the width of the sashing into the block... ok I may be pretty dense here.... there is sashing on each side of the block. Do I add each side or only one? Any help any of you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Quilter1234

so do I add the width of the pink sashing to the size of my block.
Example .. block is 6 inches finished, sashing is 2 inches finished, therefore I consider by block as an 8 inch block and figure my corner and side triangles accordingly.
Thank you for your diagram and help with this. Quilter 1234
