Have you ever gone to a local fair or quilt show and really looked closely at a quilt?  And when you’ve done that, have you ever noticed that the person who made the quilt did not trim their points because you can see them through the fabric?

OY, drives ME CRAZIER!

Here’s a quick reminder – for beginning as well as more advanced quilters – TRIM YOUR POINTS!

Four half-square triangles (HST’s) – two on the left have their points trimmed, two on the right don’t.

I shall repeat myself:  TRIM YOUR POINTS!!!!
