Help...driving myself crazy!!
 
In the last few weeks, there was a post about "setting blocks on point". (I think) Someone posted a link to a video of a guy that showed how to do it. He started with a square, then added fabric which he then trimmed. The result was a center, with borders. There was some discussion as to the fact that he wasted too much fabric, and others offered different ways to do it. I wrote it all down, and...yup...can't find it now. I've been searching like crazy for his video, or the post. Am I searching for the right terms? Does anyone have any idea what I'm searching for?? Thanks!!

Jan In Va has pointers and tips. I think they have one on setting blocks on point. It's really using blocks up and down and adding triangles at the edges to make it look on point.

Don't feel like you are alone Anniedeb. I can't figure how to "bookmark" anymore so I just copy and paste it in an e-mail and send it to myself. I have no problem finding an e-mail on my computer !!

Jan in VA is such a great member knowing so many things!!
