Video Tutorial // Sew 16 Half Square Triangles (HSTs) Lightning Fast

How to Sew 16 Half Square Triangles Lightning Fast.jpg

Half square triangles (often abbreviated as HST) are one of the fundamental blocks in quilting. I've sewn so many over the years--I loved seeing Amy Smart's  technique to sew 16 at a time!

Amy's HST Video

Her technique was so great, that I asked her to demo it for us, which I've used to put together an in-depth tutorial for you on the Pattern Drop website.

In the demo you'll learn how to layout, sew, cut, and square-up your HST, so that you can achieve quilting perfection. Or at least so that you can cut your prep time in half.


This tutorial is perfect for the Solitude Star Quilt Pattern, or Amy's Hopscotch Pattern. Happy sewing!
