Best demonstration of hand piecing I’ve seen yet! Never mind the cars, I’m fully focused on watching you. So glad I found you, I’ve just started the Dear Jane quilt and I want to hand piece it. I just did a star the same as yours and I’m not happy with the centre ( and I will be unpicking it!) so your video is timely and much appreciated. Have subscribed 🥰
Would you please demonstrate how you hand piece “Around the World”.
Thank you Wendy. Love your videos. Would love to see your hand quilting. I love hand piecing too.
Awesome video Wendy. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much ! This is such a wonderful tutorial ❤️
Thanks very much! I’ve just started stitching, sewing, piecing again after 50 yrs hiatus. I need all the help I can get😅.
Thank you so much for this video. It has helped me greatly.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I have always been so intimidated to start but you made it look so doable.
Beautiful! This is how my paternal grandmother taught us to piece stars! I have an antique top that wasn't finished and I believe the sewer didn't know how toease the star points! I have been wondering if I dampen the centers, if I could work some magic 🤔 So many times I've seen circles appliqued to star centers .Probably why mariners compass etc all have circles in the centers. 🎉
First time watching your channel, your instructions are so helpful❣️Thank you so much 😁
Thank you!!🪡🧵💕
Excellent tutorial
I’ve been looking all over the web for a hand sewer to show this step! Thank you!
Wendy, truly enjoyed your tutorial on beginning hand piecing. It is such an enjoyable way to make a quilt. Thank you.
Where can we get those acrylic templates?
Lots of quilt shops stock acrylic templates. You probably need to ask for them. Paper Pieces in USA make acrylic templates for hand piecing. Also Amitie Textiles in Australia.
Your quilts are beautiful.
Hello Wendy. Thank you for your videos, they were very informative. I hope that you will be able to continue making videos. Best wishes from Canada.
Thank you for showing the quilts. I’m looking forward to seeing more sewing videos from you. Take care.
Thank you for taking the time to explain hanging sleeves.
👍🔥
Thank you. Beautiful quilts and a good tutorial.
We’re can I bye the add a quarter inch drawing thing I can’t find it anywhere 😊
Hello. Here it is on Amitie's website in Australia. You might be able to find it closer to where you live. www.amitie.com.au/shop/c/p/Simple-Seam-Wheel-by-Jen-Kingwell-x10598009.htm
Just beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
After hand piecing, do we need to do something to the raw edges to keep it from fraying?
No need to do anything to keep it from fraying. When the quilt is layered with batting and backing the raw edges will all be safely enclosed.
Thank you Wendy for the video. I am hand sewing a 8 pointed star and have to sew the star together thru the center. Great idea on how to sew that. Looking forward to seeing mor video s on hand sewing.
Thank you for such a thorough introduction to hand piecing. It is really helpful, especially explaining the equipments (sandpaper...of course...that will stop the pesky little bits moving) and the techniques (love the tailor's knot...I will use that from now on in my handsewing). I'm starting the Nearly Insane Quilt, which may be a tad adverturous...but I feel better equipped now having found your videos. Thank you Wendy.
Thank you. My mum has the Nearly Insane pattern and has machine pieced quite a few of the blocks. I may yet make it myself one day.
Fabulous! Wow!
Wonderful learning video! Thank you! where would I look to purchase the acrylic blocks for the rubber stamps? Thank you!
I bought the acrylic block at my local Spotlight store which is like Joann's in USA. Or any craft store that sells stamping and cardmaking supplies.
Thank you!
excellent thorough tutorial. thank you. also tho it's got nothing to done your work i love hearing all the children playing 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was awesome. When i started years ago i wanted to do all my sewing by hand.. everyone said i was crazy.. i wanted to do it like our grandparents and pioneer women did things.. so i bought a machine.. Thank you.. You do awesome work
Thank you very much.
♥️♥️♥️♥️
I’ve been doing more handwork lately. Lovely video, thanks.
Great video. I learned a lot.Thank you
Thank you for this excellent video. I had not hand-pieced since the early 80's. This was just what I needed to get my groove back.
Such clear instructions....tku...
Thank you for such a clear instruction as well as all the best needles and notions to use.
Lovely to see here.
Thanks Marina. The Topsy quilt was very popular. How's yours coming along?
They look amazing in video, but so enjoyed seeing them in person. Your work is wonderful.
Thank you Janice. It was lovely to meet you too. Thanks to the Taupo guild for inviting me.
I found your tutorial on line today. It is fantastic just what i was looking for and explained very well.
This was super helpful Wendy. Thank you very much!
thanks so much have been struggling and will give your points a new try! mary
Can anyone get their tailors knot to work? When I twist my threads on either side of the needle, they just sit on the fabric and don’t form a knot.
hi. do you take one whole up and down stitch first, and then put your needle through the same holes again but leave it in the fabric while you put the threads around the tip poking out?
@@wendysquiltsandmore thank you for responding. I worked out that I was putting the wrong “tail thread” around the needle. I think this is why the knot wasn’t forming. It seems to be holding now. Thank you so much for these instructions.
Thanks for a very thorough tutorial. I have a quilt pattern that I would love to make but have hesitated as it really would be best hand pieced. I think that now I can practice and make a start.
This was an excellent teaching! Thank you so much! I LOVE hand piecing and hand quilting. It seems so much more authentic to me. I live in Mississippi in the U.S. and I love to watch quilting and stitching videos from Europe and Australia. I learn so many more wonderful tips. Thank you for this video.
Thanks Cherie. I'm glad you found it useful.
Thankyou for a great tutorial Wendy. I am finding hand piecing a lot less stressful on fingers etc than epp😊
Like over piecing any techniques. Your instructions are well defined and follow thank you
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of hand piecing. I love it! Will give it a try. ❤️
Beautiful. Took me multiple views to understand "top thread" and "bottom thread". Top thread - the thread that is coming up from the fabric that has just been stitched and bottom thread is the thread as it is coming from the needle. Got it. Thanks. I've been sewing FOREVER and now have a new knot.
wow! where to buy that "coin"?
