Tri Recs ruler
I have this set, bought it a long time ago and never knew what to do with it. I am just a template addict. I was looking at videos and patterns today for the ruler and a lot said to use paper piecing method and after 3 strip quilts that I paper pieced, don't want to do any more of it. Has anyone made blocks from the ruler set and did you paper piece them.
Thanks,
Evelyn

Cathedral Stars, a free pattern designed by Bonnie Hunter (www.quiltville.com). I used the same constant colors that Bonnie did (red, black, blue).
It's not a difficult ruler to use; just make sure you cut the little notch off the right triangle. It doesn't look like much, but it really makes a difference in piecing!
