I don't have a "quilt" to show, I was trying to do table runners ... here they are. I've taken them apart so many times trying to fix them that the fabric frayed and I can't, so they are done and who cares LOL
I don't have a pic of them sewn together yet, because I still need to do the border (and need to get my machine back from the shop this weekend)
But what I was running into was the middle was being "chopped" so it looked like this in the middle:

In a post where I was having problems with triangles lining up in the middle (and not losing the "point" of the triangle) I received loads of wonderful suggestions and advice. Here's the link for this thread: http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...r-t274554.html
I found my problem! I wasn't using a scant 1/4 inch seam ... it was THAT easy!!!! And I have PERFECT triangle points!
I didn't have to pin / glue or anything ... wow ... the hardest problem, solved with the simplest solution!!!
And here's a picture to prove how easy it was ... this took me all of 3 minutes with some scrap fabric! LOL
