It was kinda like in one of my first quilting classes she was saying how the bias edge was on the triangle, sew the bias, and I said :?: :?: and she said "sew the hypotenuse" and I said :idea: and got it.

Welcome to the world of Accuquilt! did you get a Studio or GO!?? I love my Studio machine. Can't imagine cutting fabric any other way now! hardly ever use my rotary cutter. LOL
