Not too dumb. I always thought turnovers were something from Pepperidge Farm that you baked for dessert.

LOL .... were a little confused there for a minute !! Yum :-D

Do you cut a 6 inch strip then cut to 6 inch blocks or do you need fewer than this, or are you fussy cutting??

Interesting question! If the two sides are 6 inches, then you would use a 6 inch strip and squares. I have never purchased any, so I am not sure.

It depends :wink:
If you are sewing two turnovers together ( half sq triangle block), you will lose a 1/2 inch (seam allowances), so if you were to sew that to a square that is 6" the square would be too big.
