We all have those little quilting techniques we can’t stand… and for me it’s paper piecing, binding by hand, and trimming Half Square Triangles (HSTs). I *cannot* stand making HSTs because of all the trimming.
But yeah… HSTs are kind of a big deal in the quilt world. So I’ve learned a few ways to help me make HSTs. Or rather... avoid trimming HSTs!
Want to skip around?
Technique #1 - Starts around 5:05
Technique #2 - Starts around 8:40
Technique #3 - Starts around 13:30
What time (and wrist) saving HSTs techniques do you love? Please share in the comments!
