Step 2: Making HSTs

Why do you suppose we call these HSTs? They aren’t really Half Square Triangles — they are squares made up of half square triangles — we should call them half triangle squares or HTSs. Of course, I’m really just typing out loud here…

We’ll start off by making some HSTs — there are quite a few, but not enough that you’ll hate me when you’re done 😉

1. Make 16 HSTs using your background fabric and color #1. Trim them up to be 3 1/2″ square.

2. Make 8 HSTs using your background fabric and color #2. Trim them up to be 3 1/2″ square.

3. Make 4 HSTs using your background fabric and color #3. Trim them up to be 3 1/2″ square.
