Since it's so hot here, maybe some snowman fabric will help you cool off! This is the Snow Happens line. There are over 10 different bolts in stock in the line.
To make 8 half square triangles (HST) from 10 inch squares of fabric, put 2 ten inch squares right sides together, (after marking from corner to corner, the centre of the lighter coloured square) and sew 1/4 of an inch from that mid-mark line on both sides.
Cut through the seamed lines and also straight at 5 inches on the block, ( both across and up & down) lining up the points of the seam lines.
Your cut lines allow 8 HST!
A lot of different layouts are available with HSTs! Make a test block from some of your stash fabrics and experiment with making HSTs this way.
