    Default Half Chevron Die?

    Does anyone know of Accuquilt or Sizzix dies to make the pieces that Bonnie Hunter uses in her quilts that she usually calls half chevrons? I've attached a picture to give you an idea of what I mean. The only similar one I've found is Accuquilt's Chisel die but it just has the triangle cut at one end. Thanks for any help you can provide!

    I had some problems with the file, you want a diagonal bar like in this step?

    I'd be doing the rectangle and two squares method like she shows. Sort of like a warped flying goose.

    Are these the ones you want? Different sizes and you have to add the triangles.

    You have to add the triangles depending on the size of the die you use with the parallelograms.

    Couldn't get your drawing to open.

    I looked on the Accuquilt website and they have a free Chevron quilt pattern download. The die they recommend is just the 2.5 x 4.5 die and then the long 1.5 strip die. I didn't look at the actual pattern on how they want you to construct it.
