      Sometimes someone needs additional instructions. You can always speed up the You Tube tutorial but they have no options when rhe additional instructions are left out. Everyone learns at a different pace and amount of instructions.

    I ❤ this method, it saves sooo much time!
    I have found it easier to draw the cutting lines in RED so they stand out to me as a "DO NOT SEW" Line. This keeps me from getting confused whilst I quickly sew the sections, or quadrants together. Ty for this great tip! 😊👍

  • @jreese8284
    @jreese8284 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    Nice clear tutorial. It looks to me like you starched the fabric rather heavily, and that's a good idea, because it holds the threads still and reduces stretching when sewing. If you did in fact use starch, you might want to mention that. And if you didn't starch, try it, because it makes the fabric behave!

    • @sugarstitchesquiltco
      @sugarstitchesquiltco  ปีที่แล้ว +15

      Yes, I do starch my fabrics which helps with bias! I have a video that covers that and have another one coming on fabric preparation 👍 all makes a difference, thanks for your comment! Good luck!

    This is a great tutorial and great idea. As a high school math teacher, I loved that you called the sections "quadrants." I would like it better though if you had the top right as Quadrant 1 and the top left as Quadrant 2, going around the square counterclockwise as we all learned in our Algebra classes. But that's just me.

    One thing. When you've cut the big square down to the 4 squares and started using rotating mat cut your perpendicular and horizontal lines (middles), you should then rotate mat again, without lifting up material or shifting material, then cut the diagonal seams. Saves a ton of time.

    I like the way you drew the lines on the fabric and then sewing 1/4" thru the two layers of fabric and much easier to cut out the triangles.

    Love this. I have no peripheral vision on right side of either eye. This is perfect for me I just hope I can remember the size of beginning fabric. This is actually brilliant.

    I can’t thank you enough for the terrific chart!!! I’m making a pattern that has a double whammy: complicated blocks AND the instructions are in “old timey” terms like “2 7/8 squares cut in half.” Omigosh. So each block I’ve kind of redesigned so it’s manageable. And I needed 32 HST’s, 16 in one combination, 16 in another. I remembered that I had downloaded your guide so I can make these FAST , ACCURATELY, and EASILY!!! I’m just so pleased!! THANK YOU for all the pre-planning and arithmetic!! My squares are cut out and I’m ready to roll. Again, I can’t say it enough: Thank you!!!
