6 Sew asy Watch a video of this Sew asy online at Quick Triangle-Squares Use this technique to make the trianglesquares for Hemingway Slept Here. The ons & Porter Quarter Inch Seam Marker offers a neat way to mark accurate sewing lines for this method. 1. rom each of 2 fabrics, cut 1 square 7 8" larger than the desired finished size of the triangle-square. or example, to make a triangle-square that will finish 2" as in the Hemingway Slept Here quilt, cut 2 7 8" squares. 2. On wrong side of lighter piece, place the Quarter Inch Seam Marker diagonally across the square, with the yellow center line positioned exactly at opposite corners. Mark stitching lines along both sides of the Quarter Inch Seam Marker (Photo ). NOT: If you are not using the ons & Porter Quarter Inch Seam Marker, draw a diagonal line from corner to corner across square. Then draw sewing lines on each side of the first line, ¼" away. 3. Place light square atop darker square, right sides facing; stitch along both marked sewing lines. 4. ut between rows of stitching to make 2 trianglesquares (Photo ).
