    so I am going to do it. I wanted a quick, easy weekend quilt and started this morning. I had a Moda "Louisa" laycake and some matching yardage. I am using Eddie's half square method. This is what I have done in the first hour:

    This is how I made the hst. 2 squares right sides together, sew 1/4 inch seam all the way around, cut corner to corner, and corner to corner. Press open. Easy!

    first cut

    second cut

    pressed open

    And, once again, I'm hyperventilating from all those bias edges! :wink:

    The fabrics are lovely, though.
