    I took my square and placed in on my matt. The shape of a diamond. Then cut it down the center:) This was the first time I tried making a block and I am proud of my work:)

    Joan, you did so well. I am so proud of you. Look how well everything fits together. That is your work!!!! You did good.
    You read the pattern, followed instructions and produced that marvelous block!!!!!!!!!! I am a proud sister.
    (1/2 square triangles would have worked. You will graduate to that later. You did great!)

    Anyone want to post a few photos showing how to make the half square triangles? Have any handy? Step by step, work in progress.

    Joan, I didn't mean to offend you or anyone else.....

    I offered that as a suggestion and nothing more.

    your block turned out lovely.......and you have every right to be proud of your work.

    I think if you just do a search there is already one, if not more, tutes on doing them here on the board... with photos.

    It's cool. Joan wasn't offended and she was happy to learn there are so many different ways to make different pieces of the quilting patterns. We are here to help each other and you were helping. I made my 1/2 square triangles the hard way for several months before I happened upon the faster ways. I stretched that bias till it squeaked. :) . Couldn't figure out why it was so wavy when I finished. :) It all comes in time. Thank you for helping and please don't stop.

    Yes. I looked and found 4 methods in just a few minutes. They were all good. I know there are probably more. We just pick the one that works best for the project we are on.
    I am loving this post. I want to thank each and every one of you for making it such a success.
