SIDE SETTING TRIANGLES:
1. Measure your block ON THE DIAGONAL and add 2" to that measurement and cut a square.
2. Cut that square on BOTH DIAGONALS. The long edge will be on the straight grain and will be set along the EDGES of your quilt top.
CORNER SETTING TRIANGLES:
1. Measure your block along one side, add 2" to this measurement and cut 2 squares.
2. Cut these squares on ONE DIAGONAL. The short sides will be on the straight grain and will be set along the corners of your quilt top.
No math. No lost block points. A little "float" allowed. A stable, wonderful setting!
