It was in an old magazine, but they still sell the pattern online. The half square triangle pattern was super easy because you can use the thangles type paper. I'm already in my quilting room sorting through my fat quarters! Can't wait to start sewing.
Before everyone goes out to buy "special" rulers, you only need a standard ruler and a cutting mat with a 45 degree angle marker to cut the piecies. Most of us have this stuff already.
