Mystery Quilt Part 8

Half Square Triangle (HST) Blocks

Combine 2 fabric B squares 4″ x 4″ and 2 bg fabric squares 4″ x 4″ to make 4 B/bg HSTs using steps a.-c.

a. Place the fabric B and bg fabric squares right sides together. Draw a diagonal line using a removable marking device on the back of the lighter square (shown as the solid line).

b. Sew a ¼” seam on either side of the solid line (shown as the dotted lines). Cut on the solid line and press seams open or toward the darker fabric.

c. Trim each HST block to 3 ½” x 3 ½”. Repeat to make a total of 4 B/bg HST blocks.
