This is exactly what I was looking for! THANK YOU!!!!! First of all, I appreciate not having to buy all those rulers, 2ndly you explained it in a short amount of time, clear and to the point. How anyone could give this a thumbs down is beyond me! Loved it!

Largest tip! I love my Creative Grid Rulers! You are NOT nuts... I like to trim my HST's down, too...

Amazing, I do this too. Took me long time to get around to coming to this, but it is a wonderful technique and your blocks come out PERFECT, even though I waste slivers of fabric, makes for a beautiful finished product! And I've got so many rulers too. When you have lots of pinwheels to make, just wait, when you begin to put them together, magic happens all perfect.

I LOVE 💕 LOVE THE FQS!! I truly appreciate all that Kimberly, her husband & their awesome team do for all of us who sew. I love 💗 my Creative Grid Rulers & have also been reaching for them more often when I am cutting my Quilting fabric.

Kimberly, I am new to quilting. I just saw this tutorial and wondered if this is still what you would recommend to square up an HST. Thanks. Pat Berne

I'm confused as to which creative grids ruler to buy to square up HST. The ones with the 1/8" , the ones with the dots? Or do all work for that?

@FatQuarterShopTX 5 лет назад

Hi Stacey! We do carry Creative Grids Square It Up rulers of different sizes that do help with squaring up HST, however, we also found that using painters tape or washi tape on any Creative Grids ruler can help in the same way. The same results are achieved either way! Hope this helps :)

@@FatQuarterShopTX I may not understand, but wouldn't you be able to line up your fabric with the number markings on the ruler and do the same thing without the painters tape?

@jackiesayre3605 3 года назад

What size did you use?

I am doing a quilt that said to sew two 5" charms together all around edge 1/4" then cut into 4 triangles. Then says to block each to 3" block,,never done so sort of confused as they are only off a small amount at current. then they are going to become part of a flying geese pattern. watched video's, but don't want to mess up...

If you have not made the half-square triangles yet, you can watch our Star Cakes video to see this HST technique being done: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SImGA086Lzo.htmlm17s Then you can follow this tutorial to square them up properly to the size your pattern calls for. Hope this helps!
