Quilting your Legacy Monthly Challenge is Half-Square Triangles!

 

Let's get a little wild, search through our patterns, and look for designs that require you to make Half-Square Triangles.  

Half Square Triangles (HST) is a precise shape in quilting without cutting triangle shapes. 

 

🤣They're SO Fun!! 🤣

 

Half square triangles are one of the most common quilting blocks because they're straightforward to make, and you can arrange them in nearly limitless ways. 

 

A half-square triangle is a square quilt block unit made from two right-angle triangles. The triangles are sewn along their long (diagonal) side, forming one "half" of the square.
