click on: 'VIDEO Super Fast Rotary Cutting: Square on Point'

This wastes no fabric, and keeps an 'upright' upright.

Anita, may I first say it is a priviledge to chat with you here on the board. I have seen this video in the past but could never find it on a search, so thank you so much for providing the link! I have always wanted to use my scraps to make the quilt you show on the video. I love that it snips off the dog ears.

You were using an 8" square. Does it finish at 7.5" using your method? If so, I am going to assume I should be using all 5.5" squares unfinished to make my 5" finished block.

Thanks so much for the great info!

Diane
