This quilt is made entirely of half square triangles (HST)....lots of them! Make a test block first so you can see what the fabrics look like and if you even want to make the quilt. Finished Size 72" x 96" The Block There are six different color combinations for the HST. There are two ways I recommend to make the HST: AccuQuilt Cutting System Use Die # 55703 to cut up to 12 HST triangles at a time. There are no nubs to cut off when using this die! A great timesaver. Want to try AccuQuilt without spending a fortune? Try the GO! Me Fabric Cutter. Triangles on a Roll Use Triangles on a Roll to quickly sew and cut your HST. This allows you to use large pieces of fabric at once so it cuts down the cutting time. One roll makes 600 HST so you'll nee two rolls to make this quilt.
