And I don't mean your method of making Flying Geese or HSTs. My issue is with the 6" border on a purchased pattern, all squares (on point), and half squares, "diamonds". I didn't like that the main colored 2" squares would be cut and probably end up as 2 fabrics, so I changed to a 'better' method. Didn't work, the border is 1" too short, so now I will try another way, which will make my MC small squares one color, and the larger square two background triangles. If that works I will have to un-sew all that I've done, a lot more unpicking than what has already been done. Also must admit that I didn't measure and trim so that may account for my stuff-up, but I'm sure the new way will be best.
