Starburst Quilt

 This Starburst quilt is made with HSTs (Half Square Triangles).  

I love how the black background makes the red fabric pop!  A black border, complete with cornerstones, made this a good-sized lap quilt.  

It became a wedding gift for my niece.  I hope they like it as much as I do!

HST Placemats

Fun with HSTs (half square triangles)!  Which ever method you use to make HSTs, here's a fun way to make placemats.  One our sons and his wife have 6 kids, so when they come for dinner I need 10 placemats.  This project has stimulated some amusing conversation over many meals thus far.

 I made lots ... and I mean LOTS ... of HSTs.  Then I used 54 HSTs per placemat and arranged them in a different design for each one.  It makes for a very unique looking table setting.
