    Watching this made the improv quilt finally make sense in my head. I like to imagine the girls at the quilt shop (who comment often on my obsessed precision) watching me chuck my ruler back in my bag and just get to work. Haven't mentioned in a while how much your videos make me smile. They do, every time. ☺️❤️

    Your color choices and improv block designs really zing! But what I really love about your work is the way you assemble your blocks. There is no agonizing...you just do it and it all comes together beautifully. Great idea for making strips to fill in the cracks. Artistic and inspiring work. Loved this video!

    Another amazing piece. I have learned so much watching you and you have given me insight and hope 🫣🤔 to step outside the box. I can't believe you haven't been approached by a major company to be an influencer and educator. There's so few of people like you out there doing what you do.... especially with a multi billion dollar industry. Do you sell online.... you are at the point that you could stay home and design, make and sell and make a fortune.

  • @hmw1441
    @hmw1441 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    oh my god this is my favorite video I've ever seen I have never made a quilt before and have barely sewn but I have really been wanting to handsew a mini quilt and then use it to make a heating pad to give to a friend, I have been confused before about how to join up two curvy edges of paper or fabric but I can't believe it's so simple lol I'm saved!!
    And I loooove the quilt, it reminds me of my habit of editing photos to use as phone wallpaper that's very More is More (like, getting obnoxious playing with rgb curves until it's high contrast and has a million colors and is unrecognizable. And it's like always unique to the image and today's milieu)
    I also love the way you use language hahaha

    I wasn't sure how you were going to pull this together in the end, but you did. Turned out really nice. What I love about this is you don't have to be so crazy accurate with measuring or block size. You just keep adding on until it's done. One thing I don't understand...why did you use the paper tape? Is it to keep it from skewing off in one direction to keep it lined up?

    • @davescraftroom
      @davescraftroom  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      lol yes 😜 technically to make it "really" perfect you'd need to add a quarter inch seem allowance to either side of the curve. But if the curve is kept relatively gentle and then you use a little elbow grease, you can make it work without the seam allowances :P
