    Do you trim the dog ears on the HSq-TRIANGLES

    WHO is suppose to square up the half square triangles ... those pesky little dog ears that stick out when you use the paper or make triangles with practically any method. I am asking because I have never participated in an ON LINE exchange before and I am not sure what the protocols are. In other exchanges any dog ears / squaring up to be done was to be done by the recipients.... What is the proticols here ???? .

    As I understand it, being as how we are not ironing the HST open, there really are no dog ears. We are sending in a perfect triangle. The recipient gets to iron them open, then tend to the clipping of the "ears."

        Make that: sew, heat set the seam from the fabric side with a hot dry iron, cut apart and mail!
