Accuquilt sells both the half square triangle dies (long side is on bias) and quarter square triangle dies (long side is on the straight of grain). So to make hour glass units, you need the quarter square die which results in straight of grain being on the outside of the square. Be sure to read both the clues and the die descriptions to make sure you are getting the right sized die to make the finished size block.
