Making EASY Half Square Triangles for a quilt

Maybe it's just me, but I just love these Speed Grids! I found this one at a resale shop and thought I would give it a try. WOW! It's so easy! I haven't ever noticed these in the quilt shops but I'm sure they must still sell them. I had to make 64 HSTs to make to finish up a border on a quilt that is on my UFO list. I put it off because I was dreading these. But, boy, this was easy...


I was thinking that if I've never noticed this tool before, maybe there are others that haven't seen it :)

What a cool tool!! That method looks better than Thangles where you have to tear paper away. Hum, will have to do some searching on the web.
