Here's something someone on FB posted. Maybe this will help those that can't print out the triangle pattern.
This is for people who can't get to a printer 1. Cut out a rectangle 4-1/2 X 2-1/2 inches. 2. Fold one corner over to other side to make a triangle. Flip paper and repeat so you have 2 diagonal lines. 3 mark 1/4 inch on the outside of both folds. 4 cut on the lines you just drew and you have your template.

Part of me wants to try the method with the easy angle ruler because I liked it so much for the HST's. Part of me wants to avoid bias edges ... but they didn't give me any problems when sewing the HST's together.
Fortunately (!??!) I'm at work so I have the rest of the day to mull it over

The problem is with her template!!!
I just printed it and have the following comment
[ATTACH=CONFIG]501266[/ATTACH]
Something is not measuring right here. she said that the rectangle is at 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" but not according to her templates.
Beware!
