    Your piecing tutorial is the best I've watched so far. I'm still not ready to attempt it so I may have to watch you oh...about 100 times. You are fun to watch and I love your camera angle! Thank you!

    Since I don’t have a light box, I open my iPad browser to a blank white screen. Works pretty well.

    An extra tip....when you fold the paper back to cut the quarter inch put a postcard between the paper to give a sturdy line for the ruler to sit against.

    I have been spinning my seams since I watched your video, but the rope about just doing the centre with the longer stitch length is BRILLIANT!!

  • @alindac1
    @alindac1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love the idea of sewing a "basting" stitch in the center to check if it lines up!!! Also this keeps it in place while you're sewing the whole thing without having to use bulky pins!! This is a fabulous tutorial!! I've watched several and none of them have made sense really until yours!! Definitely am going to try FPP now because you made it look so easy!! Thank you "sew" much!!!
    P.S. Sorry for all the exclamation points! I'm just so excited to finally see a video that makes FPP look easy!!!😁😁😁💜💙💚💛🧡❤💙💙💙💙

    Love the idea of doing the center stitch to check before stitching the whole thing. I've could have saved so much time on my lady project. Sadly I had to use the seam ripper a lot

    Thanks for this tutorial! I watched this a couple times, then printed out a design, traced it onto stabilizer paper, and went at it! I loved the result and this was the first time I've had really good results with quilting. Kiddo helped with fabric choice and it was a really nice afternoon for us. Thanks!

    TFS!! I actually found your tut so easy to learn. Thank you. Your awesome!!!!! It is beautiful and colorful. I don’t have a favorite color. I love love all the colors. What’s the seam roller called or where can I buy. I have the mini clover iron but it doesn’t do a great job. That roller looks like it just fattens that seam. It probably helps when you flatter, starch, best press your fabric pieces prior to sewing block.

    @lesliehall4820 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Tutorial is great, but there was no mention that the first fabric should face away from you and the remaining fabrics will all face you. I realize that for this square since the colors are all solids with no print that this won't matter.

    ONLY bottom half of pattern is provided in the link below. I think it’s important that you mention this.

If I hadn’t felt tricked I probably would’ve purchased it.
