Hello, friends! Today I’m sharing the Half Square Triangle Scrap Quilt Blocks 14 + 15. I have been having so much fun sewing these blocks each week. I’ve gotten into a rhythm of prepping half-square triangles throughout the week, so I have a nice selection to choose from for my block sewing. Keep reading for all of the details for this week’s blocks.
Half Square Triangle Scrap Quilt Blocks 14 + 15
Block 14 + 15 Details
Block 14 is a set of four different pinwheels placed together. And block 15 is an elongated pinwheel with four accents. I love how both blocks turned out. I did realize though, after taking my block photos this week, that I need to prep some more navy half-square triangles, so I have some of that color throughout my quilt.
How to Sew Along
Sewing along is simple! I won’t be sharing any more videos until my quilt is finished up, but I’ll be sharing the block designs here weekly on Fridays. Find two new blocks per week each Friday until the final set of blocks are shared on Friday, June 20th! The block layout patterns are free and can be downloaded here each week, and the full pattern with block and quilt construction details and two different layout options is available in my shop.

Tips for Half Square Triangles
- Make half-square triangles my favorite way by sizing up and trimming to your desired size.
- Use half-square triangle paper in your preferred size to make several identical half square triangles at a time.
- Use project left-overs as I’ve done in sewing triangles together from other projects and then trim as needed.
If your scrap bin is overflowing, I hope you’ll join in! I am making my blocks using 2″ finished half-square triangles, and I might end up doing an original setting with them…we’ll see how it goes!
Thanks so much for stopping by for the Half Square Triangle Scrap Quilt Blocks 14 + 15. Check in next Friday with the next set of blocks. Happy quilting!

Thank you so much for all the half triangle quilt patterns. I sew charity quilts and you have given me so many options that the quilts all look different for the recipients
