I was at a quilting retreat this past weekend, and a lady had a ruler type device that marked fabric, then you sew, cut apart, and make half square triangles - a lot at one time. - similar to Thangles - but without the paper. It was called Quick Quarter II Triangle maker. I thought it would be easy enough to find, so I didn't write down any additional information. Well, I can't find it! Can anyone offer any help?

Thanks so much for the help. I'm ordering one tonight. I have a lot of small HST to make, and I hope this will make it quicker, and more accurate.
Thanks again!!

i have one too,love it!..but have just drew the line with a regular ruler lately. so long as my machine is set up with an acurate 1/4", i keep the bar on the 1/4" foot right on the drawn line and sew both sides. they are perfect.
Thangles are wonderful too..i used them for a star quilt, and it turned out great!

I also have a Fons and Porters - I also got it at JoAnn's. I also used a coupon. I also gave the longer one to a neighbor who I am helping learn to quilt. I like the shorter one the best and I don't even do a triangle square without my little "stick". Edie
