I'm hating hating hating these little triangles. Someone do them for me, Please??????? :) I'm surprised I have any fabric left after all the times I've ripped these poor things apart. I don't know why I cannot compute these things!

BK -- just cheat. Draw the block out as a PP block. Much easier! I did one the old fashioned way and said ENOUGH!! PP all the way on this one.

Don't give up! Nobody hates triangles more than I do and I'm doing them by traditional piecing them. I have been using sizing when I press and they are actually behaving. Use a leader and chain piece them. you can do it. Think how great it will feel when you get them done!

I've had company all week and they are in my guest/sewing room so I haven't been able to start this but I'm so ready to. We have some more family in town next week but they are staying elsewhere.
