Last week we had a week of rain. So this week I need to catch up on weeding the gardens. HSTs (half square triangles) are a nice quick thing to work on between weeds. Cut some, sew some, trim some and repeat.
So, I have now finished 572 HSTs in rose themed fabrics and I've cut a bunch of squares. Now I have a new project all kitted up and ready to assemble into a top. There are no blocks to make but it will take some concentration to lay out the rows in a certain way so I will leave the assembly for a later time when I actually feel like concentrating.
I also finished 240 HSTs for a red, white, blue quilt. And I also cut some squares. Everything for a quilt top is now in a project box.
This one will not take as much concentration because I will be making 20 blocks. So you may see this one sooner than later. Or not. Time will tell. Stay tuned.

Wowzers! That's a heap of HSTs!
I'm right there with ya in that they're a nice quick thing to squeeze in between other stuff. I'm sewing lots of the little boogers myself!
All those HSTs and weeding! You make me feel very slow and lazy.
That's a lot of HSTs. I don't have the patience to prep them in advance of a project. LOL
Oh yes HST are a lot of fun to work on .So wonderful that you had the will power to continue weeding and not spend the whole time piecing. Lol. Happy quilting, dear.
Looks like you are really filling up the Parts Department there! Looking forward to seeing what you do with these lovelies.
