    Default Before I Start Cutting...
    I need to know about the longer triangles on the sides. Does the same rule for HST's apply? If I am cutting the squares at 4 1/2 inches, will the HST's be cut at 4 7/8ths? I do not want to mess it up.

    There's a good tutorial on making half-rectangle units here. https://shop.mybluprint.com/quilting...ngle-triangle/

    That is going to be a pretty block. Love your batiks. I have no idea of how big to cut your HST-just wanted to comment on your beautiful block.

    This looks like an Electric Quilt block pattern. If so, it will give you rotary cutting sizes.

    When I tried to save the article it was not about the subject. So much for that.

    Do you always know who your project is for, or where it will go, before you start?
