Half-square triangle units are one of the most commonly used quilt components and they can be made in lots of ways. My personal favorite is the sandwich method, but some quilters like to make them on a rectangular or long grid. The units are used so often that commercially prepared grids are available from off and online quilt shops.
The Rocky Glen quilt will give your half square triangle construction skills a real workout. It's the only unit in the quilt, but there are hundreds of them in two sizes. Rocky Glen isn't a difficult quilt to make, just take care that your units are the correct size before you sew them together, and press everything carefully to avoid stretch.
