HST Trick- It’s Not Cheating, It’s Genius!

July 17, 2011 97 Comments

I’m having a blast with this skill builder sampler, but I must admit, DANG, this week’s pinwheel block was a killer! I’m not even a super newbie to HSTs (half square triangles), but for some reason this one literally took an entire evening…sad but true.

Per directions, I did the old “draw a line corner to corner and sew on each side” trick for all 10 pairs…so much cutting, so much sewing, so much trimming!

But somewhere around my third episode of Law & Order, as I’m slaving away, I remembered a sneaky little HST trick I learned from Jenny Doan over at Missouri Star Quilt Co, so I whipped up a quick little demo for you below. It’s so fast, you’ll almost feel like you’re cheating…ALMOST!

Ok, first step, don’t cut zillions of tiny pieces! Start with 2 larger squares (I used 5″ charm squares, but you could also use 10″ layer cakes, or cut any size you wish!)- I also love high contrast colors for these.

Next, lay one on top of the other, right sides together, and line up all of the corners. Place a pin or two in each side to prevent wonkiness (I skipped this step in my first attempt and the results were a little embarrassing…so yes, please, pin).

Next, sew a 1/4″ seam around the entire unit, leaving no gap. Now you’re palms are probably sweating and you’re mind is screaming “NO! Wait! We’ve trapped this gorgeous fabric inside of a weird little pocket!”. Hold your horses!!! The fabric will escape soon!

Now, carefully line your ruler up on two opposite corners, and cut.

Repeat in the opposite direction. Now you have 4 cute little triangle pieces.

Now we open, press, and…hey, wait!!! Those aren’t cute little triangles! They’re HALF SQUARE TRIANGLES! You just made 4 of them in like 90 seconds!

And look what you can do with these little miracles! ANYTHING!

Have you made a quilt using this method?? I’d love to see your designs! HST’s are so much fun- I want to do a zig-zag quilt next!

    I need a 2 1/2 unfinished square (HST) how would I figure out what size squares I need to start with – is there a formula I could use?
    Thanks

      They have updated the tutorial about pinwheels on the Missouri Star Quilt Co. They have a list of sizes and a formula you can use. The only one I can remember (because it is an easy one to remember) is 8″ square will make you a 10″ block. I just finished a quilt for charity (going to the east coast) and used a 10″ square and ended up with a 12 1/2″ block.

          Go on Pinterest and search half square triangles. There are several pins with charts telling you how big to make your squares. There’s another one to do 8 at a time. Definitely a life changer. There are also charts on how to make flying geese 4 at a time. Two piecing methods that you find in almost every block out there. Also the ones that give most people trouble. Hope this helps 😊

            There is also a ruler you can buy to trim half square and quarter square blocks. Another life changer! It’s a quilt in a day ruler I believe it’s made by Eleanor Burns. There are directions that come with it. I basically cut my squares a bit larger maybe between 1/4 and 1/2” extra. Sew for 4 or 8 at a time. Cut them apart. Before you press open you line your stitch line up with the line on the ruler for the size square you need. (I believe it trims from 1” to 6” but I’m not sure.) now trim. You only have to trim two side of the square. Open it up and press and you have a perfect 1/2 square triangle. Good luck!

      I cut 2 – 2 7/8″ squares, layer like Amy states here, and cut in half. That should give you 2 1/2″ squares.

      If it’s confusing buy some gridded graf paper and draw your finished block with seam allowances. Then transfer them to freezer paper. With a hot iron, press them onto your fabric then cut an entire square out. You can usually cut four at a time very accurately. Freezer paper patterns can be reused a dozen times. Georgia Bonesteel used to sell gridded freezer paper. Check her site.

    I’m going crazy here. I want a 4.5″ finished square (each one of Amy’s magic triangles) if I add 2″ to a 6 1/2″ square I am getting 4 3/8″ square, then I added 2 1/4″ to 6 1/2″ square and got 4 3/8″ square. what am I doing wrong.

      Try a 6 7/8 inch square. This should get you four 4.5 inch squares. Another possibility is to make it slightly larger and then trim.

      Hi as a quilter who I also teaches Maths you can calculate the correct lengths using Pythagoras’ Theorem! Here are a few lengths I’ve done already as a ready-reckoner to help:
      The calculation is more precise using decimals but I’ve converted to inches using fractions of eighths / quarters etc, for quilters using these measures. They will be approximated as a result! Finished square side length of 2 HSTs is the first measurement and the size of the starting squares given second.
      For a finished 2HST of 3” start with large squares of 4.24” = 4 1/4”
      Finish 3.5”………..use 4.9” = 4 7/8”
      Finish 4.0”…………use 5.65” = 5 11/16”
      Finish 4.5”…………use 6.4” =6 3/8”
      Finish 5.0”…………use 7.07” = 7 1/16”
      Finish 5.5”…………use 7.78” = 7 13/16”
      Finish 6.0”…………use 8.48”= 8 1/2”
      Finish 6.5”…………use 9.19”= 9 3/16”
      Hope that helps!

        Ps need to add an extra 1/2” to allow for the 1/4” seams all around the starting squares. So for the 4 1/2” square you need
        6 3/8”+1/2” =6 7/8” squares to start! Good luck!

My husband taught me the basics of sewing then I found Amy’s classes for quilt making, oh the fun I had. After Amy, I found Jenny at MSQC, between her and Amy, they have given me a skill set I thought I would never be able to have. So excited that I have found Amy’s website again. If you have not done so, go check out her classes over at Craftsy..so much fun and such amazing patterns over there in her classes. Thanks a Million Amy,

      Starch is your best friend, as you start layering the squares, before pinning, even, straighten and starch each piece. Treat gently after cutting, and try to attach bias to SOG pieces where practical. If you have a walking foot on your machine, use it for the whole quilt, not just the binding.

        I agree about starching heavily. When the HST are made this way the cut edge is in the bias and stretches easily.

    For those trying so hard to get the right size hst – make them larger, then just use your rulers with the 45 degree line on the diagonal seam and trim the squares to size. You may waste a little fabric, but it’s a lot less stress. Good luck!

    Even better is EIGHT at a time, and no bias edges! Similar idea, layer two squares. Draw a line from corner to corner twice, to make an X. Then sew 1/4 inch on either side of both lines so you have a triple X, He he. Then cut in quarters, top to bottom, then side to side. Cut along your drawn line. BAM! Eight hst, no bias edges.

      Depends on size of HST and how it will be worked into quilt.
      Avoiding “bulk” where points meet is always my concern.
      I press seams open when 4 HST diagonal points meet AND fan the points.
      But when only 1 or 2 HSTs meet, I will press toward dark fabric.

    With this shortcut, each half square triangle now has the seam on the straight of grain and a bias edge on all 4 sides, so press and handle them gently or your HST will end up with ruffly, stretched sides.

    Hi Amy, Very cool quick way to make half-square triangles and it looks tempting, but is it harder to work with them since all the remaining raw edges are on the bias? Think its going to make it harder to sew them together, won’t they get stretchy and hard to work with?

    Reply
    • Stitchery says

      September 9, 2014 at 11:02 am

      Hi Jen! I haven’t had any trouble with stretching, though sometimes I starch my bigger squares before stitching them together, just to help prevent this even more. I think the key is just to be aware that they could stretch, and so to handle them with extra care. Normal gentle pressing, trimming, pinning and stitching should be fine….it’s the aggressive pressing, ripping out seams, etc, that could cause bigger distortion. :)

      hope this helps! Thanks so much for stopping by!

    This is a great way to cut, though I think these would actually be called quarter square triangles (the bias edges are on the outside of the resulting blocks). Half square triangles have the straight of grain edges on the outside. Since the placement of bias edges in a quilt block is often important, it helps me to think of the triangles in these 2 different ways.

    I have used this technique to make half square triangles. My suggestion: Once you have sewn the 1/4 inch seams, take it to the ironing board, and use Best Press (or another sizing spray) when you iron it. Now take it to the cutting board. The Best Press will help keep the bias edges from stretching.

    This is a great method, but if you are making a project with a lot of HST’s, or just want to make a bunch you like and put them in your “Parts Department”, I love using the Triangulations CD…generates HST sheets in any size you need, you print it off and sew it up. I find it both the most speedy and accurate method out there, there is a sample sheet you can try: https://www.bearpawproductions.com/userfiles/file/Half%20Square%20Sample%20Grid.pdf

    For those concerned about the Bias edges on this HST method, why not cut the original squares on the Bias, it would then give you finished HST squares on the straight-of-grain. I would personally leave starch in until all sides sewn.

    Initially I thought what a great idea. And it still may be that. One problem that I’ve had to become aware of when sewing half square triangles is always making sure that my finished block is stable along the outside edge.
    When you use this techiniques all the outside edges are bias edges. When you press the seam alliance open it is very likely to distort the fabrics on both sides. (especially if you are a newbie.) It can also be a problem if you need to handle the blocks a lot after sewing them.

    Sometimes easy isn’t the perfect outcome. If this works for you, great.

    Acknowledging the need to be careful with ALL bias edges might help folks use the techniques without distorting their final products.

    This is a quick way to make 4 at a time but you do end up with bias edges all round. This makes it a little tricky sometimes and you need to be really careful. How about giving this a go …. 8 at a time and finish with the edges on the straight of grain. So much better.

    Okay, I’m responding to an old post, and you may have already learned this little trick, to make 8HSTs at one time.
    You need 2squares of fabric, placed right sides together; on the lighter fabric, mark diagonal lines, from corner to corner, and sew 1/4’on both sides of both lines.
    Press well, then cut into 4segments, vertically and horizontally, then cut on the pencil lines … 8HSTs.
    Easy math: double the size of your finished HST and add. 1-3/4″ (for the diagonal seams), so if you want 4″ units, you’ll start with two 9-3/4″ squares ( or 10″, then trim to finished size)

    There is a similar method but you use strips of fabric rather than just squares. Place right sides of fabric together, then sew 2 lengthwise edges together. Cut diagonally. Make as many as length will allow. I found the method on Pinterest when I searched for half square triangles.

    I love this method! I use it often, but like others, I wish I knew the formula for figuring out sizes!

    How would you calculate the finished size so you start out with a big enough square?
