Making Quilt Triangles – My How To

Move it Over Monday from The Quilt Ladies

After learning to make a square, the next step is the triangle. Just like the square if you are not ready to purchase a rotary cutter and mat. You will need to make a freezer paper pattern.  How I do my Square’s
This post may contain affiliate links. I will receive a few cents if you click to their site and purchase

Take the FINISHED size of the square you want and add 7/8 of an inch.
example:
for a finished size 2 inch square you will cut your fabric 2 7/8″ x 2 7/8″
for a finished size 3 inch square you will cut your fabric 3 7/8″ x 3 7/8″
for a finished size 4 inch square you will cut your fabric 4 7/8″ x 4 7/8″


And so on, either make you freezer paper pattern or up with a rotary cutter and ruler.

Quilters Triangles, How To Make with Seven, Eighth Inch Squares

 

 

 

I’ve used a 3 inch FINISHED Square cut 3 7/8″ x 3 7/8″A light and a dark.

On the Wrong side of the light fabric draw a line from corner to corner.

This is the cutting line NOT sewing line

Quilters Triangles, How To Make with Seven, Eighth Inch Squares

On your sewing machine sew a straight seam, 1/4″ from the line.

Turn and do the same thing on the other side.

(when I have many to sew, I do chain piecing, one right after another, not stopping the machine until all finished and then turn and do the other side) If NEW do them one at a time.

I recently posted a block on Facebook and there was a lot of take about points.
Here’s how I do it.

Added this as a strip to another piece.  Pin as much as you need, check as you pin to make sure
you have the 1/4 seam allowance.
