Board & Batten Quilt Along - Second Week of Half-Square Triangles

 


I have been enjoying seeing everyone's half square triangles for the Board & Batten quilt along!  You can see all of the fabric combinations and colorways on social media using #boardandbattenqal and in the MMD Facebook Group.  

You also always find all of the information and links to the QAL at the main Board and Batten Page.



Board and Batten Weekly Instructions

This is the second week of making half-square triangles.  By next Wednesday you should have all of your HST sewn and trimmed to stay on schedule with the quilt along (but feel free to go at your own faster or slower pace).

My favorite way to do half-square triangles is to oversize them if possible (was not possible for me in this pattern because I was using charm squares) then trim using my HST Bloc-Loc Ruler (you can find the 6 1/2" version here on Amazon affiliate link).

I can't wait to see yours!
