Maybe because I rarely piece quilts the traditional ways, but I need help to figure out the size on the setting triangles on a table runner with the squares set on point. Can anyone recommend? My squares will be 12 inches squares. TIA

Scroll through the pattern toward the end where setting the blocks is discussed.

Here's a link to Bonnie Hunter's site with that info. She provides all the calculations, but if you scroll down a bit, there's a handy dandy chart so you don't need to do the math.
