| Abstract | 6. Place the diagonal line of the ruler over the seam line to check for squareness The unfinished block size should measure 3 1/2" The triangle is a basic quilt block shape. Half-square triangles are easily made from two squares and cut on the diagonal from corner to corner. When cut the diagonal line is a true bias edge which stretches and distorts very easily. Sewing the bias seam before cutting the square into triangles prevents this problem. To determine what size the square needs to be cut, add 7/8" to the size of the finished square. For example, for two 3" finished half-square triangles, cut two 3-7/8" fabric squares from two different colors of fabric.
