I would suggest a different color pen for vertical and horizontal lines as a reminder not to sew on them.
Love this idea❤
I'll be trying your method. Thank you. 🌹
Where are your math instructions for this tutorial?;
Thanks very smart
Great technique! I appreciate the caution not to sew on the horizontal and vertical lines. I think if I try this method I will draw those lines in a different color to help me remember. I need all the help I can get!
That’s a good idea! I always have to remind myself!
I was thinking a dotted line but a different color would be so much more convenient!
ME TOO!
So it’s like each quadrant is the magic 8 HST method but sewn 4 at a time. I love it!
Just finished watching & I agree about using different colour marker - good suggestion
THANK YOU !!!! Straight to the point. No bs just teaching. I so appreciate that I didn’t have to watch a tutorial for An hour when it could just to the point. Your time is very precious too so thank you for taking time out of your own day to teach us a very helpful step !!
Thank you so much!! Glad to have you here!!
Great tutorial!! So easy broken down. Thank you!!
Yes, no BS. Good for her.
Agreed!!!
Sometimes someone needs additional instructions. You can always speed up the You Tube tutorial but they have no options when rhe additional instructions are left out. Everyone learns at a different pace and amount of instructions.
Loved the tutorial. Retired and on fixed income. Greatly appreciate that it is free.
Suggestion:
Use different color inks for sewing lines versus cutting lines.
I have to tell you, I had put off finishing quilts for my grandbabies forever because I loathed making the triangle cuts! This has just renewed my inspiration to get back to it! Thank you for posting this video! ❤
What a wonderful tutorial. I am 85 and still learning.
Never finished learning! Thanks for being here!
Excellent tutorial❣️ When I want to learn a new technique, I want the instructions concise and to the point…no chatty, gimmicky fillers. Yours was just that, and I have just subscribed to your full content and given you a “thumbs up”. I am planning on adding this technique to my technique of the month class, thank you for a great video to follow. From one quilt instructor to another…BIG kudos❣️
Thank you so much! That makes me so happy to hear because that is my goal and why I’m here! Glad to have you here too!
Good job!
I agree “no chatty fillers” 😂
😮😮😮😅😅😅😊😅

You are a very clear speaker. I enjoyed it very much. You speak at just the right speed. I will be subscribing. Thanks.
Great to hear!! Thanks for watching!!
Loved this! It’s such a pain to make half square triangles but no more!!! Thank you!
You’re voice is soothing and you speak so well. No, ya knows, no um’s. Your instructions are concise and easy to understand. Thank you for providing this information.
Thank you so much! I have to bite my tongue ALOT! Thanks for watching!
This is an old technique we used to teach at my quilt shop over 25 years ago. It's called the grid method. Nothing new but a great tutorial nonetheless. Nice job.
Nope nothing new but so many people don’t know different methods unless they are shown🤩
@Sugar Stitches Quilt Co. Good thinking! Thanks. I love that you used a simple method to do this. New quilters will start off understanding the geometry instead of templates and rulers. I say this bc I had an awful time concentrating on those instead of the actual shape of the fabric piece itself.
You could draw the vertical and horizontal lines a different colour from the diagonal as a reminder.
Thanks for doing such a well-presented technique of a patch that so often overwhelms people. You are one of the best "teachers" on CZcams!
You are so sweet Linda, thank you, that made my day!!! I'm glad I can help!
I ❤ this method, it saves sooo much time!
I have found it easier to draw the cutting lines in RED so they stand out to me as a "DO NOT SEW" Line. This keeps me from getting confused whilst I quickly sew the sections, or quadrants together. Ty for this great tip! 😊👍
Yes it’s a great tip!!!

❤❤ excellent unhurried tutorial! Winner winner!
Wow, this was so simple and awesome! Im going to save this video to help me start my quilt journey 😊
This was an amazing revelation! I was cutting them individually...can you imagine the time it took me to do that? Well, thanks to your method, just learned, I will be doing that from now on. Thank you.
So glad to hear!!
WHAT!! I just cut almost 300 half triangles. I so needed this method months ago! Thanks next time I'm all over this. Thanks!!
OMG! I wish I could have saved you some time, at least you got the extra practice!!

Love this. I have no peripheral vision on right side of either eye. This is perfect for me I just hope I can remember the size of beginning fabric. This is actually brilliant.
Excellent tutorial!! Easy to follow. Thank you so much!
This was an excellent tutorial! Thank you. Just proves that you can learn something new everyday!

Absolutely loved this quick and easy method. Thanks for sharing.
I love this video and keep it in my Best Techniques folder. Watched for the third time just to see it again because it’s so soothing and inspirational.
Oh my goodness! I found your tutorial just in time! I am wanting to make a PATRIOTIC table runner with half-square triangles! Perfect timing! 💖
That’s awesome!!!
I love this! Thanks for sharing! :) I am NOT a fan of half-square triangles AT ALL, but this would make me want to make a quilt with them, so I'm going to try it!
Try it out!! I didn’t used to like them but they have grown on me!
You are amazing coming up with this fabulous idea! Thank you so much.
Thanks for watching! Not my original idea but I sure love sharing this method!
This is such a pleasure to watch. Thank you!
Thank you for this tutorial. I would love to see more quilting hacks. Also, thank you for the pdf chart to help figure out what size I need to start with. Have a blessed day.
You are so welcome! Thanks for being here!!
Your teaching was very clear and concise. Easy to follow. Great job and great idea for sewing 32 at a time!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Great instructions. Much appreciated 💐
This is such a help! Thank you.
This is a great tutorial, and I found it at the right time as I’m getting ready to make quite a few half square triangles. Thank you 💜
That’s awesome! Thanks for watching!
Nice clear tutorial. It looks to me like you starched the fabric rather heavily, and that's a good idea, because it holds the threads still and reduces stretching when sewing. If you did in fact use starch, you might want to mention that. And if you didn't starch, try it, because it makes the fabric behave!
Yes, I do starch my fabrics which helps with bias! I have a video that covers that and have another one coming on fabric preparation 👍 all makes a difference, thanks for your comment! Good luck!
How do you no what size to start with, love it , from a newbie
First time I’ve seen you and have already subscribed! If all your videos are this helpful, I’m in love with your channel. Thank you so much! 😊
Amazing idea, thank you so much.
Wow! I cannot tell you how helpful this technique is to me! Genius definitely will give this a try and did subscribe, cannot wait to see what other techniques you have. Your video was excellent and explanations very understandable 😊
Awesome! Thank you!
One thing. When you've cut the big square down to the 4 squares and started using rotating mat cut your perpendicular and horizontal lines (middles), you should then rotate mat again, without lifting up material or shifting material, then cut the diagonal seams. Saves a ton of time.
Yes!!
Using scissors to cut the final pairs in half is also faster than using a ruler and rotary cutter. Good tutorial!
Sounds even better, To me. So far, most of my HST are scrappy.
Wow! This is amazing. Thanks for this tip.
Excellent in every way!
I'm "collecting" different techniques to make at least 6 quilts for grandkids. HST'S were at the top of the list. Thank you for your tutorial. Def on the list to use!
That’s great!! You are going to be a busy bee!! Good luck!
New Subscriber. Looks like you have been on CZcams for a month. Excellent way to explain things logically. I’m looking forward to more videos.
Glad to have you! Yes, I am new here in this space! I enjoy posting on Instagram but I can offer much more value here with a longer video!
This was my first time watching you. It was a great video. I love how you explain the steps so clearly. I look forward to seeing your other tutorials. Colleen
Brilliant. Great teacher. Video is just the right speed to absorb the information. Well done!
Brilliant tutorial ❤ I love this quick simple technique. I plan on using this to make a stash of half square triangles to have on hand in LOTS of various sizes! I have some many FQB and not knowing what quilt pattern to use at times! This is perfect to use up some of those bundles. Thank you for sharing this brilliant technique. Can’t wait to see what you share with us next ❤️🪡🧵
Sounds great!! Thanks for watching!
This is great! Looking forward to getting the Ultimate Half Square Triangle guide!
Hope you enjoy it!
I love this method! I can get impatient, so this will help me a lot! Thank You!
Love your tutorials...you have a smooth and calm voice...your explanations are very clear...thank you !
I loved this!!! Think smarter, not work harder! I love learning from other quilters!!!!
I really enjoyed your tutorial! You explain things clearly and precisely and I will use this on my next HST project. Thank you!!❤
That’s so great to hear, thanks Linda!
Thanks for a great tutorial. Looking forward to watching more!
Love this method! Thank you for the guide!!!❤
This is a great tutorial and great idea. As a high school math teacher, I loved that you called the sections "quadrants." I would like it better though if you had the top right as Quadrant 1 and the top left as Quadrant 2, going around the square counterclockwise as we all learned in our Algebra classes. But that's just me.
That's a great idea! My brain has always been math challenged, but I like your terminology enhancement! Glad you enjoyed the tutorial! Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial, very clear instructions. I have just subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to more tutorials. Thank you so much
Awesome, thank you!
You are a wonderful, explicit teacher! Thank you so very much❤
Great method! Thanks for doing this !😊
Just found your channel, love the clear and concise instructions..looking forward to more videos. 💕
Thank you so much, glad to have you here!!
@@sugarstitchesquiltco thank you!
Omg, I love this method. Was just shying away from a quilt pattern because of the number of HST I would have to cut. New subscriber here and recommending you to my quilter friends. Binge watching all your videos. TFS and your measurements guide.
That’s great to hear!! They sure deter me sometimes too when there’s a ton of them! Methods like these sure help! Glad you enjoyed it!
love this idea! will definitely give it a try
Loved this! Thanks
Love this idea, I usually use yardage anyway and cutting big squares is so much easier!
Yes! Thank you!
You did a fine job in this video! Very clear and easy to understand. The results are just what I was looking for. Controllable and accurate AND reproducible! Thanks Thanks thanks!
Glad it helped!
Love your method. Thank you for sharing. ❤
Great tutorial! Love the time savings!
This is really cool. It makes quilting so much more accessible to me. My sister is challenging me to make a baby sized quilt as a way to get us quilting. This is a game changer! Thanks!
Glad to hear!! Take that challenge from your sister and make that quilt! Good luck!
Thank you so much. Half square triangles are gorgeous, but they do require a lot of work. However, you made it so easy. Again, thank you 😊
Thank you!! They are certainly time consuming sometimes when you need alot! I think I dread trimming the worst!
Absolutely loved this tutorial! Thank you!
So glad!
LOVE THIS!!! Thank you so much!!
And thank you for the HST guide!!❤
You're so welcome! Thanks for being here!!
Great video! Now I just need a pattern that needs that many! One suggestion...draw the first two lines (horizontal and vertical) with a different colored pen than the diagonals. Easier to remember to NOT sew on these!
Thanks for the tip! That’s an awesome reminder!
There's "Triangles on a roll". So you cannot make as many as you want.
I’m definitely going to try this. I have a quilt in mind that will only use two fabrics, and I want to play with half square triangles to see what I like with all the placement options. Love this!!!
That’s awesome! Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
I would love to see your results
Thanks, great direction and demo. Even old quilters can learn new tricks!
How effective and quick!! Love it❤!!
This is great! ❤
Glad you like it! Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial!
Thank you! It’s so fun!!!
@@sugarstitchesquiltco .. new subscriber here, and I look forward to watching more of your content. Your preparation and your presentation were spot on!
@@ingfig1 So happy to hear that and glad to have you here!
Cant wait to use this method! Have been avoiding half square triangles, but no more! Thank you!
That was wonderful. Thanks. Many more please.
Great method! Thanks for sharing! I make a lot of baby quilts to give away, this would be a faster way to get more done. I’ve been thinking of making a 2 color quilt 😊
That's a great idea! And that’s wonderful of you and your donations! Good luck, I hope this makes things quicker for you!
Excellent tutorial! What a great method!
THIS WAS VERY INTERESTING AND VERY HELPFUL TOO.
Definitely a technique well taught for quilters! Yes, many thanks again for your excellent teachings and clear instructions. Love it! Very useful way of multiplying the pieces.
Amazing how you made the 32 half square triangles ! Loved the video.
Love it! Gonna try it and…..you got me back into quilting! I’m nearly 80 and haven’t done any for last at least 10 years so this is so cool. 😊
You can do it!
Wow! I’m about to start a quilt where I need over 600 HST, this is great! Thank you!
Oh my goodness Sandy, that's alot! Hopefully this tutorial helps you get through them faster! Thanks for watching!
What pattern are you using?
@@nicolettehare3322 im watching carol Thelma on CZcams and during January she had a really cute half square triangle quilt along. I’m behind but they were awesome blocks so I’ve started working on the HSTs.
@@slug500 that’s cool. I’ll check it out
@@nicolettehare3322 she has some really cute blocks in it that I’ve used in another quilt I’m finishing right now. She’s also doing a block a day which I love.
That is amazing and I’ve downloaded your guide…thank you so very much…I look forward to more of your tutorials…♥️
Great instructions and will use
