Being a scrap quilter and not liking the cutting process the Nifty Notions rulers really appeals to me. I can have strips cut and get squares, hsts, flying geese, and hour glass blocks all out of the same strip. Today I'll focus on the hsts.
First you place your strips right sides together.
 Next line up your Nifty Notions ruler on your strip according to your size strip and cut.
 Then you simply flip it the other way and cut again. Repeat the process for however many hsts you need. Easy as can be.
 Then you just chain those pieces through your machine
And use in your next project.
