Sew Along Triangle Squares Finished

Lots of football on tv meant time to work on my triangle squares which I finished and sewed together in fours.  Tammy, JB’s sister, helped.


Then I measured my blocks which should measure 3-1/2″.  As you can see mine are a bit shy of 3-1/2″.


Measure your triangle square blocks before you cut your spacer blocks and cut accordingly.  I am going to cut mine on the small side of 3-1/2″ so everything will match up better.

Do not cut your spacer blocks – those specified as red check – until you have finished your triangle square blocks and measured them.

I’ll give you a couple more days to finish your triangle squares and then we will start piecing rows.

    I got the half square triangles sewn but need to trim them and then sew them into the blocks.
    Also decided to make my top a little larger and am working with a total of 25 blocks for the half square triangles.

    Your blocks are looking good; I love the colors. I haven’t started yet–nasty cold and no thangles, but I’ll start soon:) Thanks for encouraging us!!

    I guess the triangle papers are NOT that accurate after all. I use the 7/8″ method and mine always come out perfect. Go figure?

    I listened to your Christmas cantata last night while I sewed. It was beautiful and what a nice job you did accompanying. Candle lit services are always so special and meaningful. To God be the glory.
