Folded Corner Clipper
Has anyone used this? Am I reading and seeing the video correctly that you get 2 different sized HST out of your 2 pieces of fabric instead of 2 the same size? Or am I confused?

I don't know about that. I thought it was designed mainly to snowball blocks. That's what I use mine for.
I just looked up the video...I don't usually sew the little triangles that are left. i've got baggies of them LOL

Looks like they are just sewing the 2 triangles together that would normally be discarded when you make a snowball or flying geese unit. They are normally not used in your pattern so they are bonus and a smaller size.

I googled the video and yes, you are getting 2 different size triangles with this ruler. There are many HST methods that I think are as easy or better than this ruler. This one in particular using painters tape is awesome! http://www.aprilrosenthal.com/2013/1...ngle-hst-hack/

Whenever I have a block where I need to trim off a corner, if its large enough I stitch another line, press it and add it to my growing HST container. Sometimes I add them to the quilt they came from as an added sashing/border to add size to the quilt.
