    This is by far one of the best videos I've seen that shows the versatility of HST's. Thank you for your time and efforts!

    Thank you so much for this video. I inherited a full basket of HST with at least 4 each of various fabric and backgrounds, I have been stumped what to do with them, since background fabrics (light side) are all different. I saw at last 2 or 3 layouts that would work with what I have. I am so excited- I have had these for 15 years since my mother passed away and now I can use them and think of her while I am sewing them together & I will also think of you.

    Honestly, This is one of the best quilting videos for beginners. Brilliant that you had the idea to show how many different designs you can do with HST in this manner. Well done and thank you!!

    Also loved the Twinkling Star - will try it in a doll quilt next!
    I recently learned another way to create half-square triangles that eliminates marking: place 2 squares together, sew 1/4" seam all around the layered block edges - then press - then rotary cut on both diagonals. Open & press. Then square up.

    • @CreatewithClaudia
      @CreatewithClaudia  3 роки тому

      That sounds like an interesting method. Thanks.

    • @kathleenmayhorne3183
      @kathleenmayhorne3183 3 роки тому +4

      Be careful with those as all the sides will be bias edges. I saw a way to make 8 at once, with straight grains. People are so clever, I never stop learning.

    Thank you for all the various design layouts for HSTs. I liked each one better than the previous … hard to choose a favorite. Bonus was the fact that you used the colors of our college - South Dakota State University. Now I’m getting ideas for making a couple stadium blankets for when we attend those outdoor sporting events. Go Big, Go Blue, Go Jacks! (SD State Jackrabbits)

    Let me add another "WOW"! to your comments. That was really fun to watch, but there's no way to miss how much work was involved in creating this video. My head was literally spinning by the end. I recently tried to make a wall hanging using Moda's version of the "Carpenter's Star". Making it row by row with one finger on the diagram and little pencil numbers all over the place, I still got it WRONG and to this day I can't figure out why. My hat's off to you on getting the majority of these layouts right! Thanks for sharing!!

  • @notesfromleisa-land
    @notesfromleisa-land 3 роки тому

    Claudia great video. I think that the math is you start with squares 7/8" (not 1/2") larger when cut on a diagonal. Use 1" if you wish to have more generous wiggle room to cut down. I use Lee Heinrich's PDF for many sizes of HST's. With prescribed rectangles cut, just a few seams and easy trimming with your ruler and rotary cutter. I know that there are triangle paper rolls, but I'm cheap, and like that I can select the size I need and print at will. Also, there are also 8 at a time HST's that are effective and 4 at a time. I would stay away from 4 at a time as the outside edges are bias.

    Can some of your layouts work with one solid and one print? Or is it best to stick with two solids in contrasting colors? I really love your ideas I see hst's in a different light now.

    • @CreatewithClaudia
      @CreatewithClaudia  3 роки тому

      Yes you can! It's completely up to the maker on the fabrics you use. I used strong contrast to stand out in the video. I made a grey and pink half square triangle quilt and all of the pinks were various fabrics and patterns. If you check out this article www.createwithclaudia.com/2019/04/half-square-triangle-tutorial/ you can see what it looks like. Thanks for watching.

      I usually prewash my fabrics so when I use stem to press they don't really shrink. I don't normally use starch when I press. Thanks for watching!
