Bev--Funny how I didn't think of the difference of triangles, with or without, the bunny ears. I have used the Omnigrid triangle rulers almost from my first quilting days ans if I am caught with triangles with the bunny ears it is definitely "off with the ears" before I consider sewing. -
BONNIE HUNTER calls the little fabrics LEADERS AND ENDERS... she talks about it in her books. She actually does other units for her scrap quilts using them as LEADERS AND ENDERS.
I usually do the 2 squares sewn on the diagonals then cut into two units.
When I do sew individually cut triangles I make sure they are starched so stiff they can stand up. That helps avoid the tip going into the machine. I also use point trimmers to trim the tips before I sew them.

I have always called the little strips of fabric that we use for starting and stoping, caterpillers. In the beginning, when I just starting to chain stitch, I had no idea they even had a name, so I just gave them a name, for what they looked like to me.
