Just curious.
I did mine w/ just a pen, piece of paper, glue stick and regular ruler. I drew my two squares (on for the center triangle one for both side units) w/ seam allowance. Cut them out of the paper w/ care. Cut strips of fabric laid the paper on the strip and put a small spot of glue stick to keep them from moving and used a ruler and rotary cutter. The set of triangles you have to cut w/ 2 strips one right side up one upside down, cut the square then mark 1/2 inch from each side and make the diagonal cut the same direction each time. Oh and my strips of fabric were spray sized to feel like paper. lol
