All of the half square triangles (HSTs) have been sewn using the square in a square method (SNS) from Jodi Barrows, pressed and started trimming and cutting into the resulting four HSTs:
Pressed half of the required QSTs from Part I (the 1 1/2" strips are cut, just waiting to be cut into QSTs and sewn, which I plan to finish up later this week...
And I used the Companion Angle to make the cuts for the QSTs and the Easy Square Jr. to make the needed 3 3/8" cuts for the HSTs - both rulers worked great!):
QSTs sewn into hour glass units, pressed and trimmed - the trimmings make for nice Quilt Jelly:
And that's it for now. Can hardly wait to see what everyone else has been up to - I'll be checking back soon after I take a nice loooonnngg nap ;-)
UPDATE: up from my nap, checked the tube and there's a HOUSE marathon on Cloo and it's raining outside so I'm golden - I can cut and sew and trim ALL day!
Later...

ReplyDeleteLooks like you've got it well under control, and everything is looking great. TV and sewing, a great combination for a rainy day.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you are having fun!
ReplyDeleteLove the Sq in a Sq ruler. Didn't think to use it. I used triangle papers for clue #3 and was very happy with the result.
