    Frogella, Google "magic 8 half square triangle" look for the Craftsy site. It will tell you how to make any size hst. This pattern calls for 16 dark/light, 16 dark/background, and 16 light/background hsts, which is two sets each of the magic 8 method. My quilt uses 6 inch blocks. Feel free to message me if you have questions.

    Good luck.
