I love using #diagonalseamtape tape by @cluckcluck I love using #diagonalseamtape tape by @cluckclucksew ❤️ but I’ve always had a problem lining up the starting edge of my half square triangle units.🤨 This may not be a problem if you have the right presser foot.
.
I solved this by adding a strip on each side, positioned at a 45 degree angle from the center line. ↘️ Now I line up the leading side with the left or right angled line and the bottom point with the left or right straight line. 😄Scroll through to see how I set it up!

Quilting is not my favorite part of the process, b Quilting is not my favorite part of the process, but it can be the most satisfying.😊
.
The only marking I did was the center feather in each corner. That gave me a consistent reference point for the rest of the feathers in the triangle. One hour down and about four to go!
.
I’m using #aurifilthread 50 wt. in cream, a 75/11 quilting needle, and my Babylock Soprano sewing machine (with a Supreme Slider on the extension table).
