- We all dream of having the right pattern with the right amount of fabric with the right amount of time to devote to it. Well this miracle happened to me this past January with my Alentejana quilt by Ships & Violins. And I loved it so much I’m keeping it. Come along with me as I show you how I did.

Karen, I wonder if when you started this channel, you would ever have thought how helpful, inspirational and interesting it would be. Thank you for all your input into the world of quilting that I have only recently dipped my toe into. I for one am very appreciative.
🤗🤗🤗
WOW… Those colors are gorgeous with that pattern. It turned out fabulous!
It really is. I am often shocked how beautiful...and I made it 😎
Getting a new quilt video from you is like getting a present.... I always love them. Keep them coming.
🤗🤗🤗
Thank you for sharing all the delays and pauses in the quilt making process. It feels validating to know that even an expert can stall at certain points in the creation of a quilt.
thank you...but sot an expert but I do love quilt.
And that is ok!
@@JustGetitDoneQuilts Ah, but expertise, like velocity and time (as far as we know) is relative!
I loved all the parts of this journey you shared. And I really like the fabrics you used instead of the solids. Turned out beautiful
It's a stunning quilt Karen. Glad you claimed it for your very own.
I think it’s your use of prints that make this design come alive!
Beautiful quilt Karen! The quilting is perfect for the beautiful pattern. There is a lot of piecing in that one but surely worth it. Awesome job!!
I love this quilt! Superbly pieced and quilted. ❤
Just plain gorgeous!
Thank you, I love this one too.
I think it looks more interesting in prints rather than the solids. Beautiful!
How beautiful 💕I'm glad that I'm not the only one to loose my sew joe! You inspire me so much. I needed this one. Time to get sewing😉 thanks
We all need breaks. Just take the time you need.
Absolutely beautiful
🎉🎉BRAVO!!🎉🎉 It's FABULOUS!
Thanks Rhonda
Oh my, Karen! I love this quilt!!! Everything about it!!!❤
Your quilt is beautiful!!!!!
Very pretty quilt, Karen!
Really lovely, Karen! Great colour choices and combinations, on the back, too!
For someone who is not a fan of brown (the colour!) as you say you are, you’ve shown how fabulously it can highlight other colours here.
And oh my, I love your presentation - you’ve got such a lovely “manner” on video! Thank you so much for all of your shared tips, tricks , strategies and just goodwill!!
Thanks so much! 😊
Awesome job on your quilt.
That is one of the most attractive quilts I've seen. Wish I had the patience. Thank you for the video 😊👍💕
I love this quilt!! You will turn me into a modern quilt lover yet. The first quarter of this year has been extremely challenging for me as well. Looking forward to spring. Thanks for sharing.
I hope your challenges are behind you
That "you quilt" is absolutely GORGEOUS 😍 😍 😍 😍
Thank you
Only one word: WOW!
Stunning quilt!!! You did a great job! It is beautiful!!!❤❤❤
As a new follower, I am discovering all the wonderful things you share with us. This quilt is a beauty!
Thank you so much!
What a lovely job. So clever to pair up scraps till you have the yardage you need. Your delivery is quite charming, by the way. I found myself smiling back at you often.
Yes, charming is the right word.
The quilt is gorgeous! Your quilting is wonderful too!
That quilt turned out so beautiful!
I mostly quilt with remnants and large scraps and this is my kind of puzzle - thanks for showing me I'm not crazy! Your quilt is absolutely stunning - the fabric, placement, and quilting. I really enjoyed seeing you go through the quilting process on your long arm. Thank you for this video:)
Glad it was helpful!
I love your snippets. I especially love the Wìi exercising. Have a great vacation.
I just wanted to tell you I happened across your channel about a year ago, having never been all that interested in quilts before, and now I’m starting my second quilt! Love your videos, thank you so much for sharing your crafting journeys!
Wow! That quilt is beautiful!❤❤
That is gorgeous ❤🏴
Gorgeous! Both the fabrics and the quilting!

What a beautiful quilt. The fabric you choose are so lovely together. The quilting is lovely too. Art Deco designs are just gorgeous. I’m glad you are keeping it for yourself.
Beautiful quilt, hold your ground with Mando 😊

Breathtaking!
Hi Karen, I've been following you for years. Thanks for what you do! BTW, I think this is your best quilt yet, kudos and congratulations!

Your declutter challenge finish is lovely and so sweet that it’s for you. 2023 is the first time that I have done the declutter challenge myself and I also made a quilt I love from the results of processing all my scraps. I made a Plaidish scrappy as a gift! Now I’m working on “declutter challenge finish II”!
👏👏👏
I tell you, I was grinning from ear to ear when you unfurled your finished quilt! I'm happy for all the joy it clearly brings to you!
Thank you so much! 🤗
Bravo! C'est magnifique!!!
Gorgeous 🤗🤗🤗
Stunning!
Absolutely fabulous.
Just beautiful - you did a masterful job with your remnants!
Lovely quilt! 💖
Love the quilt!! I could never have figured all that out!!
I have been thinking about doing this quilt since your interview of Cristina De Miranda. I wasn’t sure I wanted to make it in such bright colors. 😅I don’t use many solids either. Your version is right up my alley. My desire to make this quilt is reignited. Thank you, another inspirational video for me. Take care.
That’s a really pretty quilt.
Cute dog!
It came out beautifully!!!!
I just LOVE how this quilt turned out! I saw the Cider collection and almost bought it and wish I had, but one can only keep so much fabric on hand. 😊 The quilts you've made from it are really pretty. Thanks for sharing! A challenge is good. Glad you stuck with it.
Basic Grey made another collection this year in similar colours. I expect they will also do more
Beautiful quilt Karen! 😊❤ Though I'm sure you and Mando can squeeze in there together 😉
Love the quilting!!
Quilt Blank look LOVELY. BETTY
Beautiful work Karen you are a artist because I know how much work it takes to do this peace of art I’m Portuguese and this how I learned to quilt with my mother and grandmother it takes work and lots and lots of patience thank you for sharing it brought back memories of my mother and gramma 😘🥲🌻🇵🇹
Gorgeous. ❤
After watching this video twice I ordered this pattern. I bought a great selection of Tilda fabrics a little while ago and now I know what I’m going to do with them. Thanks for the inspiration.
The colors on this are perfect! I hope you enjoy snuggling up with it!
Thank you
Love the colours Karen.
The colors and pattern are beautiful.
Karen this is lovely. Your mathematical brain worked that puzzle through to beautiful completion, with all the pauses and stumbles that every quilter is so familiar with! I hope you enjoy your wonderful quilt for many years to come ❤
Thank you
It’s beautiful Karen. I’m so glad you finished it and kept it for yourself. You don’t know how happy i was to hear even people that have long arming for a while, leave their quilts un quilted for a month or 2 or 3. I had one sitting around for almost 6 months, finally loaded it on my frame and there it sat for another month. I was so fearful of starting for fear i would ruin it with quilting. Well I didn’t, and I just entered it today in our local quilt quilt show. It’s beautiful, and whether it wins a ribbon or not; i just want others to see it. If i can do it, they can too. I was also surprise to see you stick a little piece of batting under the final inch or 2. I had no idea you could do that. So thanks for giving me an extra tip or 2. So grateful!❤
Beautiful! Thanks for letting watch the whole process.
Thanks for watching!
When you showed the pattern in the store I didn't like it much. Once you made it in your fabrics with that beautiful quilting I loved it. Now I want one😊
Beautiful Quilt. Mando is pretty cute too.
It is so good to see the stages of stop and start you went through too. Love the quilt. And thank you for the tip to get the cube timer. I use it so often.
That's a beautiful quilt
That’s gorgeous!
Love your scraps much better than the ones on the pattern! You might have to share with the pup once in a while!☺️☺️☺️Love it!
I love the Cider line! I’m kicking myself for not buying the fat quarter bundle when I had the chance. Beautiful quilt!
Beautiful Karen.
Gorgeous quilt
This is a wonderful, delightful video. Thanks.
It's beautiful! Time well spent.
Its beautiful ... so glad to know you keep a few for yourself enjoy
your Alentejana quilt is GORGEOUS! I absolutely love it and would have kept it for myself as well! 😊
I love how your quilt came out. ❤
Beautiful quilt!!
