    There is a square in a square ruler that takes all the math out of it.

    Yes, this or get some one to cut it on a Sizzix or die cutter machine.

    Thanks, guys for your advice. As I said, I messed up the existing triangle when ripping out the sashing, so I was only replacing the triangles on one block. Other than that, I'm allergic to triangles. I don't think they add enough interest to be worth the effort.

    Of course, I just quilt for my own pleasure and for gifts.

    My cousin and I are helping another cousin finish a baby quilt for her now 10 year old granddaughter.
    People have given you good advice. I am still chuckling over this part. Sounds like my quilt finishing time .
