Use this method to make two quarter square triangles with the 90 degree angle on the right.
Turn your template over so the 90 degree angle is on the left. This is technically B reversed. Rotate your Half square triangle from the first cutting step so that it makes perpendicular lines on your fabric. Place the B (Reversed) template against it and cut in the same manner. You will need two quarter square triangles with the 90 degree angle on the left. |

Cutting fabric with repeating motifs:
Use the center line in the ruler to position your ruler on the design in fabric. Cut one triangle A. I had a narrow strip of fabric. I was able to cut one A triangle and one B triangle from the starting row. Then, I found the same corresponding starting line several inches up. I turned my fabric sidewides just to cut away the fabric to get to a fresh row that was exactly the same as the first row. I looked very closely at the fabric and would not have been able to simply turn the piece around, as I had done before. I know the camera doesn't catch all of this and I hope it makes sense. Some of the very subtle markings between the stripes alternated colors. That is why I had to look for the repeating pattern a few rows up. From the second fabric, you will need 4 A triangles, 2 B triangles; and 2 B (reversed) triangles From a background fabric, cut two 4 7/8" squares. Cut once on the diagonal. Cut one 5 1/4 square. Cut twice on the diagonal. Lay out all 28 cut pieces as shown: put your motif in the center.
