Thread: Thangles

Has anyone used these to make the half square blocks...just bought a pattern that calls for many 1.50 inch .....triangles...thought this might be the way to go...never used thangles...any help would be appreciated...Evelyn

I have used them , I like them. and you don't have to trim your blocks, they come out exact.

I like thangles too, but not if i have to make too many, then i make up a grid and do it that way

I have used thangles on a few of my quilts this is the latest one.
They is no more marking of lines to make half triangles. I have seen tutorials for this quilt made without thangles and they are so many more steps an maneuvers to make.
Don't worry and have fun with it.

Made with Thangles

Beautiful quilt! I love the colors!

Love your quilt, and the colors are beautiful!

Instead of buying the thangles, here's a site where you can print them off yourself.

But is this worth the ink , paper, and time to cut the paper strips apart?
