Ode the the Half Square Triangle

Oh wonderful half square triangle,

How many wonderful designs you make.

Your possiblities are endless.

Though it can take forever to assemble,

(Like when you are made into 2 1/2″ squares) 

Your simple design is always beautiful.

I love you, half square triangle.

So I’m not John Keats. I hope that doesn’t disappoint you too very much.

The point is, I love half square triangle quilts. They are very basic for anyone who is just beginning. But depending on the size and layout, they can take a very long time to complete, making them perfect for very experienced quilters as well.

And I knew this bucket from Target would find good use:

After completion of the quilt top I didn’t have to sweep these up off the floor or wipe them off my desk. Boy, this makes staying clean fun.

The York wrapper?

What York wrapper?

Oh that York wrapper… yes, well you see, I also had to pick those up at Target. And this is only one wrapper. I did manage to eat the entire bag while working through this quilt top. A hard-working girl needs a snack every now and again!

What occupied your weekend?
