    Thank you. I will be looking for one of those. Like you I hate to draw lines.

    A similar item is here: http://www.newleafstitches.com/index...d=15&Itemid=40

    I haven't used it - just thought it was interesting and might be further investigated later on in my quilt making travels.

    I have the AnglerII and Pam Bono's dvd showing her techniques using it. The DVD is worth having.

    Everyone is my guild now uses the one seam flying geese method. We are all too lazy to do much of any detail cutting anymore. LOL. A math brain member made a chart for all the finished sizes.

    I like this method too but we were using 2 1/2 strips. If I were using yardage, I would definitely use the Elenaor Burns method.

    As to the one-seam method, I've seen that one as well. For me personally, I don't care for the pockets. It would be a great method if you were going to quilt inside the triangle which would close it.
