Cut as follows:

• Choose (3) of the 3-inch wide strips - from each of these cut (1) 3 x 7.5-inch section (these are the fillers). Cut the rest of each strip into (11) 3-inch squares. You will have a total of 33 squares.
• From each of the other 3-inch strips cut (9) 3-inch squares for a total of 27 squares. All together you should have (60) 3-inch squares (these are the corners).

Fold each 3-inch square diagonally with wrong sides together and press to form a nice triangle. There should be 60 of these.
