GENERAL MEETING: "Oompah! Accordion Sewn HST's" with Beth Helfter (ZOOM)

Beth Helfter

This presentation will have you thinking about half square triangle construction in ways you never thought possible!

Beth's "Accordion Sewn HSTs™" technique is a way to make half square triangles without identical twins, less waste when you want to be scrappy, and can even be used in concert with appliqué, quarter square triangles, and so much more! She will bring you through the whole basic process with a short, live narrated video, and then we will be off to check out all sorts of quilts made using its various iterations and techniques. You will never look at making half square triangles the same way again!
