You can use this method...just be careful how you make your HST's
if you are using 4 different colours. One HST will be color A & B, the
other will be color C & D. You can even make it faster by making
8 HST's at a time.

Here's one way to make quarter square triangles. Use the first method to make a bunch of HSTs, (use a bit larger than 1" if you are going on to make QSTs from the HSTs) then make the QSTs by the second graphic.

The first grid will make 32 HSTs. These can then be used to make 16 QSTs.

Thanks everyone for ur responses.....I guess what I have to do is two separate quarter square triangles, two colors of one and two colors of the other and sew them all together. That sounds easier than trying to cut all these triangles separately.

I like this blog as she gives a chart for different size units.

Here is a website for the pattern - if this is the one she is talking about. i only see 2 color hst, not 4 so maybe there is another pattern out there.

The Safari one I'm doing has an animal panel in the center and the four color hour glass blocks are around the panel...I found it on "All People Quilt".....

That sounds a little like MSQC Alter Ego quilt. If not the cutting should help.

Thank you Chrisdim...One of the blocks on the Alter Ego quilt is a four color hour glass......I put it on favorites and will watch closely tomorrow.....thanks to much......
