    I'm sure this has been covered on here before but since I'm new I need some feedback. Has anyone used the Thangles? I saw a demo and it looks easy and simplifies making HSTs.

    This is not a link for Thangles but is a link for making 1/2 square triangles. See what you think.

    I personally like triangles on a roll better. You can make a lot more hst"s at a time, and faster too. It also comes in lots of sizes.

    I have used them lots of times. I like the fact you make the same size every time. I just recently made a pattern from the Thangles co. It was easy but looks very complicated. They have a real nice patterns on there site.

    I like thangles also, just makes life easier for me. Can make a lot of them in a short period of time, especially when a pattern calls for alot of them.
