HST/Chevron Top

So the other day I was able to bust out my HST/Chevron?Zigzag quilt top for a wedding gift (I am not quite sure what to call it).  I had been auditioning these fabrics for a quilt for a while and trying to decide just what I wanted to do with them.  And then it hit me... big half square triangles would look great.  (Plus be quick since the wedding is the weekend).

I started this quilt by cutting 4 - 10" squares from each of 8 fabrics (4 white and 4 black).  I put together 1 black and one white and made the HST's.  I cute them apart and pressed them as usual, but here is where I made a major oops... I went right to laying out (because I had help) instead of squaring up.  I told myself, after you lay it out don't forget to square them up, but I forgot and started sewing. I was halfway through when I realized I forgot to.  Oops.  But it all worked out so I am ok now.  

This quilt is a wedding gift for a wedding I can't make it to since it is about 6 hours from home and I still can't drive :(.  I can't wait to show you when it is all finished.  I made a little tag for it, too.
