I love the true stack n whack by Bethany Reynolds. I look for a print that has several colors then cut as she instructs. It is always a surprise how each block looks when it emerges. Someone suggested to use a fabric that is really garrish and that you would never think of using for anything. It is a fun process. Since you only use 1/2 of the width, I usually use the other half for borders. This eliminates wasting half of the fabric.

I just watched this tutorial today. When her block was completed, I noticed the top tips of the pieced turn-overs would not be a nice point once assembled in a quilt but yet in your photo, yours had 1/4" above the tip so it would be correct once sewn into a quilt. Did you make your black background triangles larger to begin with?
