Triangles = panic, sweating, avoidance, thoughts of un-sewing-, biased edges aversion and projects left unfinished!!! I had a huge applique BOM quilt that I couldn't finish because of 23 light and 23 dark triangles!! The pattern, from a popular quilting design team was from 1999- (but I just recently discovered it) had a triangle template that said add seam allowance!! Would that let me stand in the way of not finishing this project, that I worked hard to hand applique over the last year?!? It sat unfinished way longer than it should have UNTIL I found this video. This is hands down the MOST PERFECT METHOD -- you can quote me and trademark it-- for making half square triangles! Thank you to infinity and back. This method is so perfect I may make an entire quilt using just triangles-- for an avid applique lover-- that IS turning to the dark side... lol. Love it!!

I didn't feel that was necessary to purchase and that there had to be another way - and there IS. I need a little more practice as I don't have the precision quite down, any tips for that? Your videos have helped me so much. Thank you!
