Here are a couple of quick videos on how to use Primitive Gatherings Triangle Papers…
Sewing the starched two fabrics right sides together…paper on top of the light…shorten stitch length to half of what you normally stitch at..I go to 1 on my Juki….Stitch all the dashed lines…
Trim on all the solid lines….make sure you have a nice small ruler…
Flip them to all the dark triangles are facing up…press them using lots of steam….
I cannot get the last video to load…will try again or make another post…
but the last post is removing the paper…hold it near the stitching with your non dominant hand…push the paper triangle back with your dominant hand and pull it away from down near the stitching in the center of the paper triangle…
sorry but I really tried to get this all in one spot…I will keep trying tomorrow! Lisa

Thank you for posting your pattern early. Beautiful pattern! I was able to get it printed quickly and easily this evening! Now hoping I can get some triangle paper tomorrow at my local quilt shop!
Iโm headed to the post office to mail goodies to both my deployed sons…one Army and one Navy . Then to try your beautiful block ! Iโm using gray and blacks from your line . Ty
This block looks like a fun challenge, thank you! I’ll be traveling to sunny Florida, but not until the week after next. Surprising my uncle for his birthday and running a 5k at the Miami Zoo!!๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ
Thank you for a wonderful block and all of the time you are giving for Blockheads 3! I am currently doing all 8โ blocks but might have to try the 4โ in this block – just for fun!
Again, thank you!
Thank you for your videos!! I love it that you are challenging us to try a new technique.. I really appreciate all your tips for each block-they have all been VERY helpful! I love your blog. This block looks hard but with your technique it looks fun! Thank you for al you do for us.
Love your block, but these triangles are going to be a real challenge for me. I am a fairly new quilter but canโt wait to get started on this block. The Moda bag with mini charms is so cute!!!
I love your block Lisa and the goodie bag is an added bonus. I have to go run some errands and will be back soon to make my block! Thank you for your generosity designing blocks for the Moda Blockheads!!
Thank you for including the information & videos on your triangle paper. I already have some, so I am all set! The Moda bag & mini charms are such an amazing giveaway. Thanks for all you do, including lovely fabric lines & patterns.
Thanks for the block…..this is my first Blockhead group I am participating in and I am enjoying it. You ladies are all so inspiring and I am learning something new with each block.
Great block that fits so well with most of the others. The mini charms all looks fun. I have never used that size.
Triangle papers sure do make everything more accurate.
Thanks for block.
I used the triangle papers for my first MODA BOW blocks with all the small triangles and they worked great, so precise. I use them for any small triangles now and love them!
Thank you for the wonderful block! The best part of doing a Blockhead is learning new techniques and finding fellow quilters to follow! Am trying papers for the first time, also.
Thanks so much for this cute block pattern. I canโt wait to get started! I am enjoying the blocks each week! The Moda give away looks amazing. I would love to win something like that! Good luck to all.
Thank you for the great block! It is always fun doing Moda Blockheads as all of the designers create some wonderful blocks for us and give us an opportunity to check out new techniques. Your videos were very easy to follow and the papers look to be a great lifesaver for these little guys. Now to get to work!
Thank you for the beautiful block, and the very helpful videos and block layout. This has been a wonderful challenge, and I am so thankful that I decided to jump in the Moda Blockheads 3.
Could you demo how you press the squares open – your hand covered the triangle & I couldn’t tell how you sooo easily got the squares to open with the iron? I struggle with getting those pesky papers to open without putting a crease in them – or burning my finger tips! Thanks!
I love your no-nonsense tutorials! And I want to add you are lickity-split sewing one handed, and whipping thru cutting those cuties! Thank you for a beautiful block – I canโt wait to get started!
I’m headed to our lqs to rent the longarm to finish some quilts. I will then be headed for the couch in front of the fire to handstitch my binding! Perfect way to spend the weekend on a cold, probably snowy day! Thank you for the fabulous block. I enjoyed making it.
The blocks to date have been so wonderful, going to be a fun, exciting quilt. Thank you for the wonderful give-away. The bag and fabric are so generous. Hope I am lucky enough to be the winner……but here is congratulations to the winner…….

Doing my blocks in 6” size, am using the blacks, grey, shades. enjoying the opportunity of variety with the blocks. thanks for the layout pattern. so far it is my choice to go for. thanks for the give away….heres to Luck!
The videos are so helpful-I’m a visual person, so seeing it done is so much easier than trying to read a figure it out! What kind of iron do you use?? Thanks!
I am so happy to be a part of this wonderful project. One of my friends told me about Block Heads and I think it great! Such creativity. Love the tutorial on the triangles.
