Half square triangles turn up in so many quilts, so knowing a quicker way to make them is a real gift. In this Technique Tuesday tutorial on our Fabric Hut channel, Yvonne shows you how to make four half square triangles at a time, walking you through every step from the very first cut to a crisp, perfectly trimmed block.
Here is why this one is worth watching:
- It saves you real time. Making four at once is so much faster than one by one, which adds up beautifully when a quilt needs dozens of them.
- Yvonne shows you when to reach for it. She explains how this method compares to the two at a time approach and when each one gives you the most stable, accurate blocks.
- It takes the mystery out of the maths. You will learn how to work out the right starting square size and how to handle those stretchy bias edges, so your points come out sharp.
Which is your go to method for half square triangles, two at a time, four, or something else entirely? Tell us in the comments below, we always love hearing how you work.
