Hey if we don't have to cut the tail, one less step. Good Hint Mary! :D Bebe are you using the Easy Angler ruler or the other directions for cutting. I have not even looked at the other directions. I know Aggi can help you if you get stuck but if she is not around I will read them and help you :!:
Sorry I'm only getting to the messages now, I haven't had a chance to get to the Internet all weekend and I have missed you all!! I do have all my 142 blocks made!! wooo hoooo!!
I'm not exactely sure what you are talking about Bebe, but when it comes to those tails at the end of the triangles, I like to keep them on, because they act as a great guide to making sure that I am getting a 1/4 inch seam allowance when I have to add the bigger triangle on to my little triangles. I have always left the tails on afterwards, cause to me it meant more work later to take them all off LOL!!! I hate having to create more work for myself :) :P
I still have a few more posts to read from this thread. I didn't have work yesterday as it was a long weekend here. So I am doing some serious catch up here this morning in the office to read some posts in between work...
I hope to have photos of my half triangles posted this evening!!
