I teach all my beginners how to make half square triangles (HST). They are the most versatile building block in patchwork and lead easily to lots of different designs.
I thought I would collate some fabulous quilts made using HST as their base unit as inspiration for all those new to HST!

Hope you find this gorgeous collection of quilts just as inspiring as I do!
My first attempt at HSTs was not too successful as I ended up with bulky seams at the intersections. Do you press your diagonal seams open or to the side?
