Yes, if you've sashed the block and it's now a 10" Unit (8" block size PLUS the added strips), what you need to set on point is a 10" square. You work with that number for getting the correct triangles for sides and corners.

I did a quick google search which says add 1 unit of the sashing measure (so an 8" block, finished, with 2" (finished) sashing becomes a 10" block and then use the same formula/method) -- is this correct? <br /><br />thanks for any feedback! :) The Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03090284449975514483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6447481169166558039.post-16452190147946470402013-07-17T08:01:44.140-04:002013-07-17T08:01:44.140-04:00Perfect timing!

Now I can get right to work this morning, and I don't have to dig through all of my binders!! Thanks so much.
