    This is my first try at prairie points. I thought it would be easy but I have run into a snag. How do you turn the corners. I am such a visual person. Please share a photo and instructions
    Thanks

    What do you mean turn the corners? the corners of what?
    if you are talking about each individual prarie point there should be no corners to turn you start out with a square of fabric and fold it into a triangle.

    let me go find a link.

    Here ya go, three different methods for making prarie points. You get the same effect with each one it just all depends on what look your going for.

    I think she is asking how you to the corner of the quilt with prairie points, not the points themselves.

    Obviously, I don't have the answer.
