this tute was fascinating and very helpful, but I have one question: How does this affect the fabric requirements given for quilt patterns? Ok two questions! Is more fabric required? I usually buy more fabric to allow for cutting errors (Yes I make errors, lots of them, and usually end up using ALL the extra fabric anyway) !!! Your tute is very easy to understand. Thanks.

THank you Rhonda for the tutorial. You make it look so easy.

check out the HST tutorial and you will see there is little waste left. So it shouldn't take any more fabric than you would have anyway.

You're welcome! Once you learn how to make the "Blocks" as in Boston Blocks or Star Point Blocks etc it is just a matter of sewing squares together. It is easy.

Rhonda, I was looking at all the tuts you have and they are just to die for. But I just haven't seen it or by luck maybe I won't and I can tell you something about the HST or even your two tone square. You may need math and I'm not very good with that part. So you take your two squares that are different colors and sew they face to face all the way around, no opening. After you sew them together just cut from corner to corner turn and cut again and you get 4T. and if you want square's them make them big enough and sew the same way and just cut in the middle and then in the middle the other way and come out with four squares. I hope you didn't know this already and that's the only thing I could show everyone.
Love being on the site you guys are GREAT. Thanks for everything.
