EASY Half Square Triangles



pinwheels from my very first piecing session



I have been looking for a replacement tutorial for the charm pack half square triangles. Photos with explanations that can go through google translate seem like a wonderful option. I have had a couple of readers asking questions about the technique and finally found one of the blogs that demonstrate it, called quilt frenzy. Click on the quilt frenzy blog to head straight to the charm square to half square triangle tutorial.

I left a comment on the original blog where I stumbled upon this technique and have not been able to locate it since. I've tried google, bing, yahoo, etc. If anyone should find the original blog, I'd greatly appreciate a point in the right direction so I can credit the blogger who saved us tons of time on our next HST projects.

100th Post

H-6

Welcome to my 100th post, featuring block #166!! Just a few main blocks to go. It's an exciting time!

Breaking news: The Stash Manicure blog has some changes going on, be sure to stop by soon.
Bummer:  You may have noticed that a video tutorial was removed from the blog last night. Just so you are aware, one of the tutes in the series deomonstrates a pattern by a designer I follow without her permission. She was not given credit or even mentioned in the segement. I don't take that lightly, so the video has been removed until a resolution is reached.

On to happier things:  Whether you say "Merci, Gracias, Grazie,  Danksche, Dankë, Dzieki, Moran taing, Hvala, Takk, Tackar så mycket, Tusen takk, Chezu tinbade or Spasibo," Thank You so much for your support!  You're the best!! It's been a pleasure sharing my progress with you. Now, I couldn't imagine enjoying your lovely comments & just patting myself on the back---stay tuned for a special announcement this week.

All my best,
Heather

Block #165 and a PRIZE!!!

D-12

This fun fabric was mailed to me recently by a reader in Indiana. I was happy to include it in one of the last green squares. If you look carefully, there's a toy soldier with a sword for this block, called Crossed Swords.

Goodies from www.FabricsNQuilts.com

How exciting! Last week I won a fat quarter set from Fabric s N Quilts just by chatting with other quilters on Tuesday evenings on Twitter. If you haven't signed up for Twitter yet, be sure to do so & join us this week. It's fun!
Tuesdays from 8-10 pm (9-11 central US time), log on to Twitter and add #talknt to your text. You can search the same hashtag to see the conversation.

Happy Quilting,
