Bonnie Hunter has information on her site www.quiltville.blogspot.ca on figuring out setting triangles. She also has great free patterns under the free pattern tab.

One thing I have found to be very necessary. MAKE THEM BIGGER. After they are sewn onto the rows and the rows sewn together, I put my ruler on the tips of two of the blocks and cut 1/4 inch away from that for the seam allowance. Sometimes it pays to leave more than 1/4 inch and make the blocks "float".

I cut the blocks in half for the triangle units when I made this. I just trimmed the edges of the quilt down before adding the borders. It's so busy, I didn't feel it took away from the look by doing so.
