Any thoughts about how to go about using these. After all the work of squaring and sorting and saving, I would hate not to use them for something. I do love scrappy. Thanks for any ideas.......
Quilter's Cache has a 12" block called Floating Stars. I made a humongous quilt out of the 1/2 square triangles. Check it out. It is very easy, no sashing, just rows and rows and rows attached to a 4-1/2x2-1/2" rectangle. Looks like an optical illusion. Edie

I just noticed the Depression block, also from Quilter's Cache. That also is a fun one to make. Good luck. I love half square triangles.
