I am makeing a tablecloth for my DDIL and I am going to use Prairie Points for the binding. Now my question what size square should I cut for them. I was thinking 3".

Oh so glad you've asked a question I can answer. That one's easy. Cut something 3" square. Doesn't even have to be fabric. You can use the junk mail or newspaper. Fold it in half on the diagonal. Then fold it one more time so that all edges are folded in except for the raw edges that will be caught in the stitching. We don't know what effect you're going for so can't know what size would be good. Seems a little small to me but then you might want a dainty look. If anyone catches you folding little airplanes and wonders, just sigh heavily. No explanation would be convincing. Polly
Something to keep in mind - Betty has done a zillion PP's.

I know but I was hopeing to start cutting them before Fri. Guess I will have to wait.

Shoot, why wait? I like Polly's idea, it's what I do all the time. Experiment with paper squares first to see how big the points will turn out, then go for your rotary cutter.
