Over the last few weeks there has been a 'Festival of Half Square Triangles' being hosted by Megan of Canoe Ridge Creations. There was a great summary of the festival posted yesterday, you can find it here. This week, it is our turn to share HST projects that we have completed within the last 6 months. The link party will be hosted on Megan's blog from April 16 - 22.
I've shown these before, but they're getting one more feature here! This pair of cushions were made last fall to go with my Swoon quilt, though they were totally an after-thought. I didn't realize when making Swoon how many leftover HSTs I would end up with after trimming the flying geese units! I used the leftovers to make blocks and then turned them into cushions for our bed {there is a third cushion in this set, but it is not made with HSTs}. I love them, partly because Hometown fabric is still one of my ultimate favourites, and also because I never even planned to make the cushions and sort of winged it, yet they turned out better than I thought they would!

Oooh! I love your HST pillows! Good luck with the competition! (It is a competition, isn't it?)
Definitely worth another showing! Love all you did with Hometown!
wow,they are fantastic.I love!
Beautiful pillows. I guess you just sparked an idea for what to do for my second pillow. Thanks and good luck.
I love them! Hometown was a great line and even better that the pillows were a happy accident. :)
What a great idea! I'm working on a swoon quilt as well and was wondering what to do with all those left over triangles.
Your swoon is so charming and the pillows are very cool.
Love these! Great use of your "leftovers"!
These look great! I need to keep these in mind for my leftover triangles
these are so lovely in hometown. i love the four on point squares.
I love these pillows. They are just so pretty, you can never go wrong with HSTs, in my opinion.
Love these, they are a great pair!
