Techniques used (complete these first)

Two-at-a-Time Half-Square Triangles

HST Unit

Produces two matching Half-Square Triangles (HSTs) from a pair of squares.

  1. Cut one square from each fabric using the 2-at-a-time starting size.
  2. Place the two squares right sides together and mark one diagonal line.
  3. Sew 1/4 inch from both sides of the marked line.
  4. Cut on the marked line to separate the two units.
  5. Press open and trim each HST to unfinished size.

Pro tip: When the pattern needs an odd HST count, this method is ideal for making the final pair without committing to larger batches.

Subunits first

Using the techniques listed above, make the following sub units: 1 Pinwheel Unit, 4 Plain Square Units, 2 Plain Square Units, 2 Plain Square Units.
