Saw a cute pillow case this week with Points (triangles, folded) on the border. Does anyone know a tute on this?

I think you are referring to "prairie points". Try doing a search with those terms. I'm sure there must be tutorials out there.

Here is one:

Thanks, Donnajean. You can tell that I am new to this Point! I will look, now that I know what they are called.

FINALLY! a tutorial that tells you how to attach them to the quilt! It amazes me the number of tutorials out there that leave that step out

Sewing With Nancy.
When we sell a sewing machine we put books with them and found several of hers have that hint in it. Can check her web site

these are great tutorials if you want to make them all alike but I do lots of scrap quilts and I like to have a variety of the prints in my prairie points. I make them each and sew them into sets of 8 or ten and then sew sets together till I have the right length. then set the line of points into my seam for edging. I don't necessarily go for quick, I go for what I want the finished project to look like.
