    My suggestion would be along the lines of SHARYN's use pins. Although I'm not the best at following my own suggestion when it come to pinning. I can see some points are off, but only because you told us. Otherwise I would of thought that was the idea. ***Sandy has it right!!!!Points are overrated, LOL

    I also sew triangles with them facing up so I can see where the point is and sew my seam to the right of the X where the seam crosses.
    That's actually hiw I always make my HST's.... There just wasn't enough room for the sesm allowance here.... Got yo correct this, as I love the look....

    Your quilt is lovely.

    Hi. I'm a quilter in training. I'm making the falling triangle quilt and I'm also having a problem with losing my points. Some are perfect. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong to lose the points on some of my triangles
