❌ Stop Crooked QSTs! Trim a Quarter Square Triangle PERFECTLY

Описание: Ever feel like your Quarter Square Triangle (QST) blocks end up just a bit wonky? 😅

You’re not alone, and the good news is, there’s an easy fix. In this video, I’m showing you exactly how to trim and square up your QST blocks so they’re perfectly square and ready to play nicely with your other blocks.

We’ll walk through step-by-step how to line up those tricky angles, what markings to look for on your ruler, and I’ll even introduce you to my secret tool (spoiler: it’s not what you think!).

If you’re a beginner quilter, I promise this will take the stress out of trimming—no more guessing or fudging those corners.

Grab your rotary cutter and let’s get those blocks squared up together.
