I tried them and did not like them at all. All that mess after pulling of the paper and the little bits that stayed behind. YUK! I get perfect half square tris by making them a little bit larger and squaring them up after sewing. It takes a little more time but perfect every time. No paper mess and the money spent on paper can be spent on FABRIC!

I just made a quilt last year using Thangles, I love them too, I am making two quilts this year with them. The first one is my picture. These make quilting so easy and help you learn accuracy. This is a great way for a newbie to take up quilting

I've done the buck-a-block. I really like using thangles. As for the paper problem. My eleven-year-old loves to do that part for me. :D

I haven't used Thangles, but I have used Triangles on a Roll which I believe is nearly the same thing. I made this wall hanging one day while playing around with T on R just to see if it was easier. It was!
The colors look faded in this pic, but you get the idea. [ATTACH=CONFIG]11349[/ATTACH] |

Love to have a pic please :D Elle I just love it when you proper English ladies talk Western! The tip-off is "Have you"--What you SHOULD have said is "Ain't you got one of them there thangle quilts to show us?" Bwwaaaahaaahaaaa! I may live in Texas, but I'm a displaced Yankee. <LOL> |
I know of friends who have used them, but I don't really have problems with my triangles, so I have not used them.
