Then you have two half square triangles. So I cut my original square 6" and then sew two squares right sides facing on both sides of the diagonal (1/4 inch seam allowance)- cut on the drawn line. Open up the square and you have two triangles together...the size of the square is now 5.5 inches due to the two 1/4 inch seam allowances. I am not using sashing as I think this will end up as a zig zag quilt...not sure about borders yet. Hope this helps :)Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09101540158088271850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5111782212707964150.post-5247499297926867402010-08-11T08:14:53.667-04:002010-08-11T08:14:53.667-04:00Bear with me Mary... you know I'm not a quilte...Bear with me Mary... you know I'm not a quilter :)<br /> but after sewing on both sides of your diagonally drawn line, do you cut on the line and then have two squares?<br /><br />I love what your doing!!! This is going to make gorgeous baby quilts.<br />I think I'd like to make a half square triangle quilt. Will you use sashing, or will they all just be connected to each other?April Rhodeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08545480668926964790noreply@blogger.com
