HST - A decision and a little tweaking

"tweaking", does anyone besides me think of "You've Got Mail" when the word "tweaking" comes up?  "A project that needs tweaking?" says Tom Hanks to Meg Ryan.  

Anyway, I digress, I've gotten some great pictures and links to other half square triangle quilts and half square triangle quilts that used Happy Go Lucky by Bonnie and Camille for Moda, thanks for the help!  I'm not the only one who enjoys making these blocks.  I'm pleased to report I've finally come up with a plan for my blocks. 

 Instead of connecting all the big blocks, I've decided to separate them with some sashing.  My favorite thing about my blocks are the blocks of color, I've decided to keep those blocks distinctive by adding the sashing.

So once I came up with a plan, I needed to come up with 2 more blocks.  The first thing I did was tweak these two blocks 

to create this block,

this block,

and this block.

And since I created two navy blue blocks, I decided to take the navy blue out of  this block to make it more green, 

and made this block.

That left one more spot so I created another orange block.

So I'm finally happy with all 9 blocks.  All I need now is a little sashing, a border, and this one will be done.

I'm sort of sad to be done with those Happy Go Lucky hsts, I may need to make some more sometime.

One last thing, I use the Easy Angle to piece my hsts. I've used that tool for years, it just suits me, but I still make them a tad big and square them up.  Several folks have been asking about that, I should have thought to include that little piece of information in the very first post, so thanks for asking!
