Well I don't actually count my HST's as actual triangles because I make them using two squares, sew up 1/4" on each side of the middle, cut and press open. I'm never working with actual triangles when making them. The bottom of this basket has actual cut triangles and this was my first time working with them like that. I figured it was going to come out all wonky and I had a heck of a time when lining up one side to sew. It didn't look like it was going to come out right. That darn triangle and it's points hanging off just throws everything off for me. But it came out right and I've made two more blocks so all is well! (That was me that posted the Frosted Stars, you have a great memory!)
Thanks everyone for you compliments!
