Instructions:
Cutting Side Setting Triangles - To cut side setting triangles - begin by finding the black line that corresponds to your finished block size. Cut a fabric strip the width indicated along the edge of the ruler. TIP - If your blocks finish in a 1/2 inch increment or you want to float your blocks in a diagonal set - use the next largest block size. Open out strip so you will cut through a single layer. Cut strip into side setting triangles by first placing the black cutting guideline along the bottom edge of strip then the top edge. CUTTING CORNER SETTING TRIANGLES - Begin by finding the yellow line that corresponds to your finished block size. Cut a fabric strip the width indicated along the edge of the ruler. Cut corner setting triangles from strip by first aligning the yellow cutting guideline along the bottom cut edge of strip and then along the top edge. TIP - Use the same width strip to cut both the side and corner setting triangles. If you are short on fabric - first cut a corner setting triangle (yellow lines) from the strip - then cut the remainder of the strip into side setting triangles and finish by cutting a corner setting triangle.
