I didn't 'get' it until I started quilting seriously! If it's a shape on paper, bleuwch! If it's cut out of fabric, it makes perfect sense! It's like those formulae from school - gobbledegook! But the formulae to work out cutting measurements for HST or setting triangles for on point blocks? A thing of beauty! :-D
