I just finished sewing a quilt top with many HST and used the Angler 2 and never marked any of the blocks. Just tape the Angler 2 on your machine, works like a charm. Love it.

missouri quilt site has a method, I'll see if I can find it

Love this! I have it in two sizes. So much easier than trimming 4 sides!

I use the wondercut ruler, It is fast, fun and easy, you can cut a whole strip(WOF) of HST with just 2 seams. see web site for inst. it also has other uses. http://www.wondercutruler.com/ruler.html good luck

I use the "stitch to both side of the center line" method and often do 2, 4 or 8 HSTs at once. It is easier with a marked line, especially when it comes to cutting them "apart".

The other way you can do it without marking is to match up two squares right sides together, fold in half on the diagonal, press the seam, open them up and sew 1/4" on both sides of the fold. No marking needed.

Try Brenda Henning's Triangulation 3.0 CD. It has sizes from 7/16" to & 7". It's similar to "Thangles", but a lot more sizes.
