I never even thought about doing them straight. I finished a stack and whack on point several months ago and the only thing I didn't like about it is there's alot of stretching . If it's done straight-you miss out on the effect of the side diamonds. A hint ladies--when you cut for the diamonds-starch till the fabric is like a board before you cut AND add a half inch to the square before you cut in half. You won't lose your points after the triangles have been added to the sides. I taught a class on that and my students were so happy that the points were still there after squaring up the quilt.
