    Default Pretty sure this should have been easier!

    Lol...this was a lesson in perseverance! Could not get the triangles cut correctly for some reason, so I took an idea from Quilter65 and just added squares and cut them afterwards. I will bind it with the black batik after it's quilted. Whew. I am sure this is an easy pattern....if only I had one!

    Beautiful runner. Inset triangles can be tricky. I think if you cut a square 1 inch larger than length of one side where you are attaching it and then cut the square diagonally you will have 2 triangles.
