    One $5.00 pkg will usually make a full quilt depending upon the pattern

    I've also used Thangles...www.thangles.com, they are great if you're doing a pattern, but I mostly do scrappies, so I do the 7/8ths thing alot. I love the process...relaxing for me.

    As an alternative I like Kay England's half and quarter triangle rulers. Her method eliminates the 7/8ths measurements and subcutting of squares. Also a portion of the price goes toward breast cancer research. I think it saves on fabric, too.

    I like to print off my HST, you can find free sites online to print them.
    My guild did a swap of HST, we each did 3 different sheets. With 18 participants we had about 6 months to finish the project. It only took about 10 minutes to do each paper, I did a few at a time when the mood hit me. In the end you had about enough to make a twin bed sized quilt if you put borders on it.

    Thanks for the info. I'm going to order the software.

    Are "Thangles" the same thing as the paper triangles you all are talking about??
