You could also turn this sidewise and it would be more of a bowtie look. This is a take on layout 1 with that faux flying geese, however take a look at that second row. Creates a really dynamic and modern look! Here is a really popular layout for half square triangle quilts. Make it a scrappy look or in color groupings. Ok, I think along with layout 5 this is my favorite. I love how this radiates from the center and creates a very different look rather than a sea of triangles.
Just found your website and am thrilled! I plan to start my first ever quilt and will be learning a lot from you! Skip to main content Skip to secondary menu Skip to primary sidebar Skip to footer Search the site What is a Half Square Triangle Block?
Prep Time: 10 minutes. Active Time: 20 minutes. Total Time: 30 minutes. Learn how to make half square triangles in this step-by-step tutorial. Materials Two coordinating fabrics Thread that blends with both fabrics; I use grey a lot. I went ahead and cut strips because I knew I wanted to make more than one block.
See common sizes listed below for quick reference. Cut two contrasting squares for each set of eight 8 half square triangles. This post may contain links to Amazon or other partners.

Half square triangles are a traditional quilt block, and are also used often in modern and contemporary quilts. This technique makes eight half square triangles at once from two fabrics.

I don't have much to add :. Then, I unfolded the protective paper of the self-adhesive support in the middle of the strip and I fixed the middle piece with some LEDs, taking care to match the position of the LEDs as well as possible with the guide lines on the support. Gradually, I removed the protective paper to the edges of the pieces of strip and at the same time I fixed the LED strip carefully.
When I was close to the ends, I completely removed the protective paper, folded the ends of the strip and inserted them into the slots in the support. I thus fixed the pieces of LED strip from layer I blue color then layer II green color according to the figure see also photos above. In the case of such soldering, the distance between the LEDs is never the required one. It is useful to measure the strip you are working with before, ie to measure if the distance between the LEDs is correct and choose a strip accordingly.
I then made the connections according to the electronic scheme. I strengthened the ties with a little hot glue. I also made changes to the size of the gap in which the connections entered. If you want to download my version, it's here on Tinkercad but you can of course use any Nano enclosure you like. I then put in the frame the piece of plexiglass, the white paper cut to the size of mmxmm and the separation grid. I drilled 2mm holes in the frame and screwed the pieces to the frame by pressing lightly on the LED support.
I also marked the place for my supporting feet, which I attached to the frame with wooden screws. The code is based on Mark Kriegsman's code here which displays several color palettes from cpt-city , with a gradual transition from one color palette to another.
The difference from the original code is that I used several color palettes just like in the code, from this youtube video. Of course, the definition of LED strips is different, I used the definition of multiple strips, as in the FastLED documentation here , and it appears in the initialization code like this:. There are four groups of 32 LEDs each connected to the digital outputs 2,3,4,5 of the Arduino Nano Otherwise, everything is as in the original code, you can download it on github and watch how it looks in action in the video from the next step.
I adapted Stefan Petrick's code from github. You saw that I used four groups of 32 LEDs that are fixed to the support in the order that is in the figure below. If I want to treat LEDs as belonging to a matrix, it is very difficult to find a function for their proper mapping. This buffer array helps me call a certain LED in the array much easier. See the figure below:. I did the same in this code, which you can also find on github.
In the video I filmed the effect with 2 grid variants. You can make a variant even without a grid, only the support should be at a distance from the diffuser paper using a printed frame with a height of 12mm, without compartments then the effect could be like on Youtube here.
I displayed in the 4x8 dial on the upper-left a random number of LEDs with random colors and I mirrored them horizontally, vertically and in both directions.
The result was an interesting kaleidoscope effect. I hope you will enjoy it. In the second step, when I talked about the design of the LED matrix, I explained how a cell will look when the animation takes place, ie the simulation of the triangles rotation. In the image below you can see what the first cell top left would look like along with the order of the numbers that correspond to the LEDs in the cell.
Because the zero LED will be the one with which the animation will start, it will be the origin of the cell and the other cells will have the origins corresponding to each "zero LED" , from the four, horizontally and vertically, 16 cells with 16 origins.
You can check if it's ok by comparing the LED numbers on the display the figure above with red numbers with the numbers in the array.
