Making Half-Square Triangles Over and Over Again

I have become obsessed with making Half-Square Triangles.
I finished up two small baby quilts last week, even quilted and bound them and actually got labels on them!


I have cut all the squares I need to demonstrate my Stitching Lines for a quilt show this weekend, and it's all I can do to keep from making them up this week before I go.





I was never a person who liked to make the same quilt over and over again. I had to become that person when I started designing quilt patterns. And sometimes, I really have to push myself to remake a pattern.
But these little squares have become addicting.

I have HST's everywhere........the floor, in baskets, in ziplock bags.




And there are a lot of them that I can't remember what I was going to do with them! These are senior moments that I have. LOL
Sounds like another really scrappy one, and another really big one.

Who else is obsessed with making a certain kind of block?

Dog on Quilt


Does your dog like your quilts?
Mine sure does. Tess could care less if it is finished.
As I was pinning rows together, she kept snuggling up to the quilt top hanging on the floor. Silly dog!! Good thing I took the pins out of that section!

Sewing rows together is one part of quilt making that I procrastinate about.
And because of that, I haven't had many finishes lately.
But yesterday, I finally completed this lap top.
On to the blocks for the baby and doll versions.
