Thangles
#46
I print out any 'paper on fabric' pattern using lightweight translucent vellum (not scrapbooking vellum.) It's super easy to remove and no tiny bits of paper going everywhere. Once you use the vellum you'll not want to hassle with copy paper or the Thangle paper.

They is no more marking of lines to make half triangles. I have seen tutorials for this quilt made without thangles and they are so many more steps an maneuvers to make.
Don't worry and have fun with it.

Take a square of each fabric and place them right sides together. Sew all four edges at 1/4" (don't leave an opening)
Then cut them corner to corner, both ways. Presto - 4 HST's!
I don't know the math for the size for a 1 1/2" HST, but it should be easy enough to fudge. Make 4 and put them together , then measure the size of the square.
