Have you ever made a half square triangle? Here's a sewing tutorial to walk you through the steps! Let's get ready for one of the options in my next pattern release, the Good Luck Pouch, by learning how to make half square triangles (HSTs). They are used frequently in quilt piecing, but if you're a bag or garment maker, you may have never tried one before.
