Thankyou so much for the hint. I think when I go to Joann's I'll invest in a package of the Ta Da's.

You're welcome! They really are a life saver when having to make MANY 1/2 square triangles. You can also check out their website: www.tadatriangles.com. I think if you try them...you'll love them! :)

Patti, that is really pretty. I love buttery yellow so much, I painted my kitchen that color. :D
