I love the way Judy makes things so easy. When I was younger, pre rotary cutter days. I did triangles the old fashioned way with templates. it was so-so accurate and took awhile but I did them. Now i'm afraid of them for osme stupid reason. but, in comes Judy with her fancy triangles, and teaches us a new easy way, and now i'm tri-anglin' again. bless you judy for taking the fear and math out of triangles!

Here are what I ended up with I just had to match the colors up. Also I accidently made twice as many as needed so this might grow a lot!

Do any of you use this tool? Have had it in my drawer since the 90's (! It has 1992 and the name Betty Gall imprinted on it as well as quilter's rule and quick quilter 2) Haven't used it much over the years, but pulled it out for this project and I really ended up liking it. It has slots for marking the cutting line when placed on a square from corner to corner and then you draw a line on either side so that in one placement you mark your 3 Lines for sewing and cutting HSTs. There was no doub about where to sew and cut. Easier on my eyes ( that are getting wonky these days) than having to move and adjust a small ruler. Just an idea....

All of everyone's blocks just keep getting prettier and prettier. Judy I agree with Lynnie, you sure come up with nice scrappy patterns. I have learned so much from these.
I am slow due to health issues, but they perk up my day.

I love seeing everyones starts they are so varied, it gives me great ideas for the next one.
That's one of the things I love about quilting so many ways to go with just one quilt design, I never get bored
