Sewing HSTs

| trimming half-square triangle blocks November 2017 |
I pulled 84 assorted blocks from the stack, and then cut squares from some beige fabric that was trimmed from a quilt back. The 84 colored squares were paired with 84 beige squares to create 168 HST (half-square triangle) blocks. I trimmed the blocks to 5.5 inches to be used in another Quilt of Valor.
That's a lot of HST!!!
ReplyDeleteYour hourglass quilt is so gorgeous!
I am often surprised, after embarking on making a quilt, how little the stash has been reduced by. Great step forward for the next quilt by making these half square triangles.
ReplyDeleteWow! That is a LOT of HSTs. Great progress on another quilt completely from stash. Inspirational is the word for this.
ReplyDeleteLooks like another great quilt on the way.
ReplyDeleteI haven't got a HUGE stash, but really, I often wonder if I will get ever through what I do have. Just have to keep sewing, I guess!
Hour glass was beautiful. Seems those of you with sewing stash have them multiplying like rabbits
ReplyDeleteWow, you are a HST factory! Can't wait to see what you pull together for this one!
ReplyDeleteI thought my yarn stash was never going down, but it seems your fabric stash is the same! It will be fun to see what you make with the HST’s
