This is an excellent demo of the spun seams! The clear, close-up steps are the best ai have seen for this process. Thank you, and stay well! Muskoka ON 🇨🇦
Thankyou so much again. I certainly have pressed first and then tried to spin my seams . I learn every time you put out a video. And they are really good close ups ( and that is hard to do I’m sure) . 🤗
Every now and then someone actually does a tutorial in SIMPLE, EASY TO UNDERSTAND ENGLISH, with a clear video alongside….10 out of 10 for yours, Mary!! And not just for the spinning technique, but for the perfect nesting, too! Thank you.
Thank you so much, Mary! That was done so expertly it's a skill I have always wanted to learn. But never found a video that so clearly and concisely explained what to do. That was excellent Mary thank you so much!❤❤❤
Thank you for this tutorial! I have always been scared to do a quilt with pinwheels because of the bulk at the center. I'm gonna go make a couple of scrap blocks to practice. Great explanation. 👍
Thank you! I have never mastered this technique. You have made the steps so clear, especially checking the diagonal seams of a pinwheel. I know I’ve mistakenly pressed the seams beforehand.😅
Mary, this is the FIRST video of so many I have watched that actually does the complete thing slowed down in a step by step tutorial. You show it to me like I am a 1st grader! THANK YOU
Wonderful tutorial Mary! I'm fairly new to quilting and am not familiar with this technique until now. Thank you for taking the time to show and explain this awesome technique
Thank you so much for this! I’m new to patchwork and I read about spun seams and couldn’t understand it! 😂but thanks to your brilliant tutorial I will be able to do this🥰
I don’t understand why picking out the stitches past the stitching line doesn’t create a risk of more thread unraveling and causing a small hole down the road. What am I missing? Thank you.
I leave the threads that I have picked out, and they are anchored cross-wise from the last seam I sewed. I haven't had a problem with a hole being left behind. I suppose it could if you trim the threads once you pick them out, but leaving them in place seems to keep everything together.
Thanks Mary for a clear method to create these seams. I recently made a hexagon quilt and now wish I had known about this method. Please, hoe would it work with a hexagon seam.
Thank for you video…..How do you keep your fabric from fraying? My fabric frays like crazy. Even when the sewing machine sews my seam. I appreciate your thoughts
No - you are opening up the seam that extends into the seam allowance. It has been anchored by the horizontal seam. I don't clip the threads - just remove them from the seam allowance.
Great explanation but I think you messed us on the pinwheel and should have spun the seams so they all go the same way. I think that yields the best result.
From my experience in order to nest the seams together before spinning them, the half square triangles need to be pressed as I show in the video. Then, I spin the vertical and horizontal seams only, as I show in the video. Whatever way works for you is great.

I worry about that too

Thank You. I have heard about this and this video I think I can do it.
You can! Thanks for watching!
Got it! Thanks!
Great!!! You're welcome!
Exactly done.... Need alot of patience to do this ... I too do this but i do miss sometimes the accuracy
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much Mary. Do you do this technique only on four patch/ pinwheel?❤
You can also do this on seams with an intersection - such as the a nine-patch.
Thanks for the hints....good to know!!!
You're welcome!
Great video. Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thanks Mary for a clear method to create these seams. I recently made a hexagon quilt and now wish I had known about this method. Please, hoe would it work with a hexagon seam.
Your'e so welcome! I have not tried it with a hexagon quilt. I'll have to add that to my list. Thanks for the suggestion!
Thank for you video…..How do you keep your fabric from fraying? My fabric frays like crazy. Even when the sewing machine sews my seam. I appreciate your thoughts
I do have a video on Fraying Fabric if you'd like to take a look: th-cam.com/video/P4JiK0_V-FY/w-d-xo.html
Thank you! But...what prevents the seam from opening up? Is it that the horizontal seam was seen last?
No - you are opening up the seam that extends into the seam allowance. It has been anchored by the horizontal seam. I don't clip the threads - just remove them from the seam allowance.
Great explanation but I think you messed us on the pinwheel and should have spun the seams so they all go the same way. I think that yields the best result.
