Triangle Frenzy® Simplified formula for estimating size:
Width = (strip width - 0.5”) x number of triangles wide
(Swirl and Runner is two, Hexagon and Whirlwind are four)
Length = (strip width - 0.5” seam allowance) x 1.15 x number of triangles long
(Swirl is 3, Runner, Hexagon, and Whirlwind are four)
Keep in mind that these are approximations, and actual finished size varies depending on cutting and sewing variations. This formula will give you a rough estimate of what finished size to expect for your Triangle Frenzy® projects!
This is for the other variations of the different Triangle Frenzy® patterns.
Thank you all for your enthusiasm!!

Would this type of formula be useful on the patterns?
I am just afraid that the variations in rulers, seam allowances and such would lead to confusion if the finished size turned out to be different than the calculations. But that is no different than any other pattern, right?
You may have just talked me into including it?
Would you like to see that information on my website until then?
Thanks
