sorry, i was trying not to get it tooo big. black and white. black and olive green on the hour glass blocks.
if you have a regular tri angle ruler that is Not F & P. maybe make your practice size tri by cutting the 5.25 square diagonally twice. then lay it on top of your triangle ruler/cutter. mine showed to cut a 3.5 " triangle. cut once, then flip the ruler over to get the next cut. i had to learn to pay attention to which was my bottom side as i flipped. it had been several years since i had used it.
That is what I did, but I only used my sewn strips. Didn't make a square. I used my reg. triangle ruler, lined up the 4" & 1 1/2" line on the bottom & seam line, it stuck over the top just about but not quite a 1/4", then cut on both sides, turned ruler over and then cut other way. Only cut 4 to start, sewed them together and shock & aw, it came out right.
