HERITAGE HALF-SQUARES

BEHIND THE QUILT

HOME COMFORTS

“Making half-square triangle squares can leave you with that dreaded thought of all the squaring up to do, especially if you have a huge pile to make. Using the paper templates takes away any trimming after pressing, just cut on the solid lines and away you go.” – Paula Hope
