This is a good size to work with for ease in stitching and will result In 24 half-square triangle units. Other sizes of units, obviously print out in different configurations. Select a short stitch length before you begin to stitch. You will stitch on the dotted lines. Note that on a strip, you may not always be able to stitch in the direction of the arrows. This is NOT a problem, just continue to stitch on the dotted line and it will work out in the end. You can see in this photo why a longer piece of fabric could be a problem as it would need to be rolled when the larger portion goes in the arm of the machine.
If you are using stiffer paper, it might distort your stitching line and you don't want that. The strip and the larger sheets are all stitched and ready to cut apart. This is where the magic begins to happen! Cut the excess on the outside edges first.

It allows you to make flying geese units up to 5 x 10 inches. You select what you want to print, the finished size desired, how many you wish to print. That is it! You are back to your sewing table in minutes. Several ladies showed up and all were busy working on their own individual projects.
