HST ( Half Square Triangle) Quilt 

Hi Laura I always look forward to your tutorial and I have made your quick chevron pattern into a wedding quilt for my daughter..Thank you for your awesome instruction.Always easy to follow xx

Such clarity. Thanks again Laura. I love your tutorials.

WOW! You make things sew very easy! Fabulous cutting and trimming methods! Thanks once again 😀

I'm a beginning quilter and especially love your easy to understand descriptions, steps, and encouraging smile. This is a big help which has altered my attitude of half-square triangle assembly. (7/8-inches should be outlawed!) this is So much easier.

I am making this with star wars, galaxy, and solid print fabric for my best friend. This will be my second quilt and I think the design is gorgeous! Thank you for the pattern and accompanying it with a video!!

Your instructions are always so very clear! Great teacher!

Sew VERY Easy and so lovely too~ Thank you again Laura for bringing us this beautiful piece.

Gorgeous quilt! Love this new, fast way to make HST's! Thanks so much for this great tutorial!!

Great way to make the half-square triangles quickly. I love how this came out with the fabric colors you chose! Thanks for sharing.

Great tutorial; your instructions are clear and easy to follow. And you have little waste from your FQs. I can hardly wait to start it!! Thank you so very much!!!

Laura, you do make everything seem sew easy, and encourages people like me to try, love it!

What a nifty cutting strategy. Your quilt top turned out lovely.

There are just so many great tips in this tutorial. At first glance I thought, "Sure, I know how to make half square triangle blocks 8 at a time", but that beautiful floral fabric was saying, "Come to me!" So of course I had to watch the whole video. And once again, you brought out detailed instructions that closed the deal in my wanting to make this pattern. I really liked how you used the two rulers to make an accurate cut of the 16 1/2" square without having to move the fabric or the cutting mat. Those were my favorite tips of this video. At 3:40 when I saw that you were going to use the long ruler to cut off the fourth side of the large 16 ½ square, I thought, "Oh, oh! How is she going to keep that ruler on top of such a little area of fabric without both of them sliding around?" By only moving the large square ruler over bit, it kept that sliver of fabric in place for cutting. Woo-Hoo! No having to walk around the table or flip the fabric/mat around; it was SO efficient, accurate, and safe. And I can certainly see the advantage of using all those pins at the center, corners and on the diagonal lines to keep a large piece of fabric from becoming unwieldy as you sew those diagonal seams on the bias. When you labeled those stacks of HSTs according to their colors and then assembled them in the four sections, it set my mind a little more at ease in how I would assemble the layout - especially nice for those of us without a large design wall. Thanks also to Quilting Treasures and Cyndi Hershey for the pattern that I can print out to keep in my binder of quilt layouts I want to make. Yes, Laura, you summed it up perfectly: "You can't go wrong with this quilt".

Sew, sew clever and the quilt is so very beautiful, thank you Laura for sharing that time saving technique, Jess

Many thanks, from Michigan. I needed a refresher in making 1/2 sq triangles

I haven't finished watching the entire video and I am already SEW VERY EXCITED! I made a quilt like this a few months ago, with a blog tutorial but it with a lot of trial & error. I'm sure your tips will help and I'll want to make more HST quilts!

Thank you sweet lady, your instructions make this easier to follow as I ❤️ the quilt but confused as to how to do it. Now I can & I thank you

I wish there was a triple like button, instead of just one. Love Love Love this ease of this quilt. Great tutorial

WOW! This is AMAZING... both the technique AND the pattern! I am definitely going to make it! I am currently making another quilt that is ALL HST at 3.5 inches. I am going to try this method to make them! Talk about speedy!!! Thank you!!!

Beautiful in the fabrics you chose. You’re always bring good ideas.

That ruler trick at 2:47 and 3:45 is amazing! This is a great technique, all of the outside edges of the triangles are not on the bias.

I am a new quilter; never have I made a quilt. This explanation is great!!!

Thank you so much Laura, that’s a stunning and gorgeous quilt, and I really really love 💕 the way you’ve made this quilt. Even I can do it. xxx Mags stay safe and well too x

What a great tutorial! So many great tips!

Do you have to use that many colors and what if you want to make Queen or King, what is fabric adage??? You are a great teacher.

very nice Laura I like it!!

I love it...thank you....I am doing this tomorrow......

Love it!

thank you so much ...you have inspired me to give this one a try

A beautiful quilt and lovely fabrics! To bad the links don’t work anymore....☹️

Great tutorial Laura

Small correction Laura (sorry). I just checked out the link with the pattern. I believe the pattern says "From each set of the fat quarters cut (4) 7 7/8" squares"; not 4 7/8" squares as you stated at 1:05. Of course one could cut their squares that small (4 7/8"), but one would be making a lot more blocks. AND I know that your video instructions make it even easier and quicker to cut (1)16 ½" square from each fat quarter - to use the 8 at a time method which is exactly the way I want to make this quilt. Whether it's your video's instructions or the pattern's, either way the sewist will come up with 56 HST blocks unfinished at 7 ½" and finished at 7" each. LOVE that fabric!!

Another of your great tips.Tks wj

I love your hair. My sister keeps trying to get me to color my hair but I'm letting it grow out white. I think it's beautiful.

If I don't have a 161/2 ruler, i can use te mat?, very nice tutorial, very well explained , thank you

Hi Laura. What do you think that adding a smaller 'stop' border before the wider border? I love the way you made yours and how you explain how to pop certain colors. I wonder if the stop border would visually take that pop away? I have put the quilt top together and am pondering the borders now! Thanks!

you are amazing.how easy you make it look. i know the fabric is called quilting treasure but i really think your the treasure. thank you so much

Love this. Definitely doable.

Oh Laura! This is yummy!!

Thanks

Love this one!!! Thank you!

This was amazing, thank you for sharing.

nice thank you for the tips and tricks :-) it helps so much i am a newbie :-) and having a blast!!!

muito muito lindo, obrigadp por seu video

I love it

Спасибо! Thank you!

I need to figure out how to do this with a layer cake. The fabric I want to use no longer has a fat quarter bundle available.

Love it

Loved making this quilt. Now hangs on my friend bedroom wall. I said why the wall and not the bed? She did not want to dirty it hahaha

Beautiful! 😍😍😍

Really pretty it's just so.........😙😙😙😙

You are so awesome!

I notice that the pattern says to press all seams open. Is that what you did? I'd really like to know how you press your seams as you do these wonderful tutorials. That was a great shortcut - much easier and quicker than making each HST individually. Thanks!
