How to Create Half Square Triangles

Preparing for the Scrapbuster Sampler

Have you heard the news? March is National Quilting Month – and we are hosting a special addition to the SCRAP-A-THON. Each day in March, we will be sharing a tutorial for a 12″ (finished) quilt block. Join us in finishing the event strong with the SCRAPBUSTER SAMPLER!

To make your sewing project even easier – and to make the most of your scraps (or yardage) – we have designed a special reference sheet for you. It’s all about HALF SQUARE TRIANGLES. Download your copy below. So, whether you are using tidbits or yardage, you can use the best HST method for you to achieve the look you desire for your block.
