#quiltvideo - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
You are the boss of your own quilt. Those that complain will always complain. Love it for yourself. You are such and amazing woman, teacher, designer. Love e you so. If you weren’t aware, we have coffee together every morning. 😍😍
I love every single quilt you show us. You are such an inspiration!! Thank you so much Pat!! Quilty hugs
I think we need to be reminded that the reason we love to quilt is because of the freedom we have in using our imagination in the making it. It is one place where we have control of colors, piecing etc. So we need to realize that each quilter's quilts are pleasing to there eye and probably not for you nor do they need your negative remarks. Quilting is our joy and we should be kind in our remarks about others quilts. I love your final borders and the process you showed us. That's way I do it too.
This is the first block Wednesday that I have kept up with and sewed right along. I really enjoy how you share your fails with us as well as your ah ha moments. It helps to remind us that not everything is set in stone and it is ok to redo something or just decide it is good enough. Thank you for sharing your talent with all of us sewing at home.
I have learned SOOOO much from you through Block Wednesday. My Dad passed away early SUmmer 2016 and I dove into quilting fr a way to mourn and heal... you have continually been a shining light and helped me through a very bad time in my life. I approach the quilts with the idea that I'm learning, trying something new, being creative. Thank you for all you do and please know I'm so thankful for you and all I have learned because of you. I can't wait to get my Summer Camp quilt finished.... in your original layout. :)
I appreciate Block Wednesday and I love what you do for us in the quilting community. I may not always agree with your color combinations but you may not always agree with mine and that is just fine! Thanks again for what you do.
I love all the Midnight Moon blocks and, frankly, never saw the cutoff goose! I wasn't even riding a horse🤣. And the sashing on the Summer Camp is perfect!💫
Love your block Wednesdays. I have made so many beautiful quilts with you since 2019. Thank you for all you do.❤️ We all can make our quilts as we wish. You can’t please everyone, but you are make a lot of us very happy! I love how you keep it real by showing us the good and the bad! Love your Summer Moon blocks-gorgeous!
Love your border on the Summer Camp quilt along. You do wonderful work. I was not sure about making the bottom of a quilt longer with borders, and not on the side. I am happy that this is “ok in the quilt world!” As a confident beginner one never knows. Your orange and black quilt is going to be very nice. I want to add that Red looks great on you! I think you are a lovely woman, Pat Sloan, even prettier and younger looking than when you were in that picture holding your red and white quilt! And, that red and white quilt was amazing!! I love watching you, of course you are my most favorite quilter ever!
Thanks for being real about your quilting! It's actually encouraging when an expert has boo boos. Helps me know i'm not losing my edge as much as I think sometimes.
I loved, “Maybe it won’t look that bad!” I can relate! Thanks for making me laugh this morning! 🤣
Frankly Pat I didn't see the cut off point. Sometimes there is always that block that is troublesome. Yikes!But I get it, it's going to bug you Change it. I also would not have changed the bat or candy corn. What I would have done is repeat one of those blocks and put them as cornerstones. They are beautiful! Whatever you do it's going to be BEAUTIFUL! Such fun! I'm glad you keep reminding people, it's your quilt. You can do what you want to it. If something isn't working, change it. That's the fun and beauty and challenge of quilting! Happy happy quilting everyone!
Loving summer camp & the sea quilt is beautiful; love the design of midnight moon. Dropped in early this morning...had a mixed day. Morning was good, quilting class at local quilt shop. Afternoon was nerve-wracking... funeral for a 60+ year of a dear friend (we meet in 6th grade). Pat Sloan you calmed my nerves, TY!! Good Lord willing, I'll see you Monday!
Pat your generosity knows no bounds and your summer camp blocks are awesome and quilters must really use there own initiative as well LOVE YOU WONDERFULL WOMAN
You are very sweet, thank you 💕
I love your title today! It makes me chuckle. You always encourage individual creativity. A lot of the viewers quilts you show with a project you always show some that have gone "rogue". Keep up the great mission your on Pat. I'm a fan!
Slept late again. So watched replay. I so love that you keep it real with us. We are all perfectly imperfect. 😘😘
I absolutely love the layout. It helped me out of my comfort zone and had me choosing fabrics, creating and making the quilt my own. I loved it and cannot wait to see what the next Wednesday sew along will be!
I love your Summer Camp quilt as it is now. The sashing as they are now is great and I like that flowered wider boarder.
I absolutely love the red quilt you showed from before. I like this quilt too. I think the sashing and borders work well with these blocks
Pat, The hot mess block was wonderful, I love that you shared the “oops”with us. It is a great connection and wonderful lesson, because we all have those blocks. Midnight moon is gorgeous.
Love love you Summer Camp quilt. You do it the way you like it.
I love the layout and the border! How could anyone not like it? Great contrast and balance! I am the kind that would tell myself it is okay and as time would go on it would bug me. Once I would get it in the quilt I would then decide I would have to take it out. When it is the hardest to do! Lol. I am getting better trying to address things sooner. The thing is telling myself I can live with and actually living with it are two completely different things.
I hear you!
Sashing change is perfect. Really like it and LOVE the floral border. Wraps it all up!
I LOVE everything you do and all the decisions you make for your quilts are beautiful! Keep doing you, Pat,
Block Wednesday has been a great learning opportunity for me. It’s so very different than following a typical pattern. It’s more about the process than the end product. I feel more Engaged. Thanks so much for all you do. You spark a creative light in my soul.
I believe you are the boss of your own quilt. The way I had decided to make my sashing I knew I needed to make the center a square with sashing! I love your ideas and do them exactly the same sometimes and my own sometimes! Which is always fun and okay! Thanks for all you do!
Pat your block Wednesday’s is the highlight of my week. 🎉 just love the surprise of a new block and the freedom your sew slings have given me to play with color!!!! All for free. You are so generous with your time. Thank you for being so inspiring and for all the content you provide for us 💕
Love your choices on the quilt border. Keep helping us learn it's not also great, and ok to do overs. God bless you.
Thanks so much for explaining how you go about your block Wednesday quilt alongs, it was very interesting. I appreciate that you share the layout at the beginning, that you make the blocks (and share fabric/color selection) during the quilt along, and especially that you recognize that there is no problem for us to make changes to the quilt as we need to for ourselves.
Love the layout Pat. Can't imagine why any one wouldn't!! Love the colors you selected as well!! Really liked the the scrappy sashing you were thinking off too!!
Pat I love the change to Summer Camp’s border. Sometimes we find extra fabric and sometimes we don’t! Midnight moon looks great! I dropped off 3 quilts to the long armer on Saturday. She texted me on Sunday saying would you like me to fix this block, the one I put upside down from Last years Liberty Box! I had that completed for months and was going to free motion quilt it as it was less than 30 inch square and never got around to it. How could I screw that up and not see it for months. 🤭 oh well, someone saw it and let me know about. Late night sewing sometimes is not the answer, ha ha ha ha ha. Stuff happens and then we move on to the next project. Yeah days off for Pat, enjoy!
that is great she noticed!
Another Lovely top--so pretty with your hair & glasses. IMHO I love the sashing for the quilt--the red just ties it all together. Thanks for another instructive video.
I respect the layout and considered finishing mine the way you showed today. Buuutt, I had just enough sashing fabric to add sashing to the left and right so I did. To avoid it being square, I added a thicker top and bottom border. Proof I am totally OCD. I have known this for many many years. Borders aside, I love this quilt. It truly makes me smile, smile, smile. Thank you for all you share. ❤️🧵🪡✂️♥️
I thought that the scrappy inner borders would have been really cute, hope that you’ll still use it as the binding. It’s amazing to me how people will complain about something that takes so much time for you to design, document, make and film that’s completely free. “You’re the boss of your own quilt”- Lori Holt, if someone doesn’t like what’s (freely) given, there are a TON of other (completely FREE) layouts on your website from all of the other (COMPLETELY FREE) quilt-a-longs. Love you dearly, love starting my morning with you and a cut of coffee, and I hope the positive comments and sentiment from your community drown out the complainers.
Love this immensely!!….I would never had thought of continuing the red outer sashing til you were putting the outer sashing color up….Somehow it just stood out to continue the red…..Everything Red!…..💞…Loving this final color!!
A perfect example of you can't please everyone. Also, it's very hard for some to not follow the pattern exactly as presented, but they do know what they like and dislike. I like how you and others encourage us to make it our own. I also know that it's frustrating to be told what you are offering is not what they want. Thank you for being you.
I love the blue scrappy inner border and the large floral outer border for summer camp. Your choices have.been helpful to me in making my color combinations. I enjoy your discussions on thought process w putting quilt tops together. Thank you!
I'm so happy you are here 💕
First of all Thank you for all you do. Yes I changed my borders but that's because that's what I had and that's what I liked. I can't believe people complain to you. It's all good, let's all just quilt and be happy.
You are so kind in your response to all the opinions. As said you are the boss of your quilt. I do like the red border.
I think you do great. Free patterns are hard to get sometimes. But I like all of the design, plus color. You are a nice person and I love your kindness and how you love to help people. Keep it up.
I’m so glad you showed your wonky quilt block. It makes me feel so much better when I know that even experts don’t always make perfect blocks. And I like your new border much better!
I am new to your program. I live in Montana where we need quilts. I have only made a few but I hope to make more. Especially with your help. Thank you for your help. I usually watch you on my TV so there is no way to comment.
Love seeing thought process of fabric choices as you go...helps me envision what I want to do with my fabrics!
I love the new border ideas. I have two UFOs that I am hoping to get the binding sewn on today. One is 20 years old that I just got quilted.
Glad you shared “keeping it real” . I have a tolerance that I can live with other times I have a date with jack! When I first got into quilting, I was a perfectionist but not any more.
I love the sashing and the border. And I love that you showed us your little wonky block. Who hasn't had those? 😁
we all do!
I love the borders on Summer Camp! The cornerstones are amazing! I learned so much doing Block Wednesdays during the pandemic starting with HST's on the Rainbow Quilt from Spring 2020. Now, I can do almost any block. Love samplers as they keep me learning new techniques!
Ah, I think everyone aught to give you a break! The amount of work you're doing to create the blocks, the layouts , the colours it's amazing 👏! I'm new here so I really appreciate back stories. I'm reading that camp quilt as orange. Love the series of borders! ❤ On my phone your top looks more red red. My favorite blocks are the centre one and the one to the left of it. Then the next quilt you showed on the wall behind you...wow gorgeous! The wall of block for Halloween 🎃 my eye was circling them for a medallion quilt or even a big pumpkin!!
Summer Camp looks terrific!!
Dear Pat, I loved the blue border you were going to use with what fabrics you had available. I was able to find more blue Frankie fabric so I ordered more to do the blue border, but with all one fabric. I got lucky and the Frankie yardage was on sale for only $7.49/yd. Of course, I will audition to see once I get that far along. I just finished block 9 and am about half way through with making block 8. I got behind because I was finishing up with Book Crew quilt. I've really enjoyed doing "Summer Camp" as well as having Kendall Taylor work along with you doing the instructional videos. He has been really helpful especially with tips and pressing instructions. I have many quilts to add the bindings so I'm going to set some goals to get going on them too. Thanks so much for all you do! Keep being you, Pat!
❤️ You are just amazing, talented, and inspiring! We appreciate you, Pat!
I love your giggle. Love that you 'keep it real'. I think with as many, many followers as you have, there probably are some whiners. Every family has them, too. People need to cultivate gratitude, especially when doing free patterns using your creativity and time. Just change what you don't like! Well, or trust in the process. I get individual blocks that I don't care for at first, but when they are all put together, usually, they play nicely. Just thanks for all you do, and enjoy those vacations days!
I think the layout and border that you picked look great! Love the orange with the pink - beautiful!
My lesson for little pieces blocks is to starch the heck out of the fabric before cutting!
I like the new boarder better. I think no matter how much you plan a sew along, someone who not be happy with something. It’s fun to see your quilt come to life as ours does.
I appreciate the time and effort you put into your sew alongs. Your sew alongs have inspired me to use my stash.
Have a great vacations enjoy your time off . I have a puppy now not much sewing. But love watching you every day.
Thank you for your inspiration. I do the best I can. After that? My motto: "It's mine and it's fine". 🤩
Those bonus blocks for Midnight Moon are very cute, but they just don't go with the rest of the quilt. All the other blocks are intricate with tiny pieces. The bonus ones look like they belong in another quilt or maybe a pillow.
Par, your quilt is beautiful! Everyone has different tastes so that is why we all have an original. Quilting is wonderful. If you don't like the pattern, just change it to suit your needs. They are all beautiful. Have a fantastic day everybody.
Ha ha. No UFOs but … lots of things in mid-planning and sewing to get done. Vacation happened and I lost my mojo. Sigh! Partially due to mess of fabric leftovers on my cutting table. Now cutting small squares to use in a scrappy. Then I will be able to sew the projects.
Love the whole quilt.
I really like the way you have it now with the pink inner border.
I strive for great points but I haven’t quite mastered a consistent 1/4” allowance 😢so when a point disappears I cry for a bit but then move on. I tell myself that the person who receives this quilt won’t notice. I will tell you that my “Summer Camp” has many disappeared points and I still love it ❤.
I really like what you have on the wall. Perfection!
Girl, just bind those quilts! I challenge you to bind for a whole day and see how many you get done!
So glad you showed us “keeping it real”❣️
Love all the colors on your Midnight moon quilt I would probably leave the oops blocks as is and come back to it and see if it still bugs me lol
Thank you sew much for keeping it real. We all learn from everything you share!
Good morning from NH ! Enjoy your weekend!
Wow, I am sorry that some folks don't care for the dashing and border!! I personally do like it :-) Your Midnight Moon is really nice, can't wait to see it all put together. I have the Summer Moon book but just can't get myself to start it. Hope you have a nice time off-e joy!
I love your sashing, and I also liked the blue. Little pieces make me crazy🤓!
I love the layout with the red inner border!
Creativity is making changes
Love your layout
I love your outside border. It pulls all the colors from the quilt for the grand finale. I have a ton of UFO's, I went to download your tracking sheet and the link isn't working. I need to buy a bunch of backing fabric for 18 quilts and I have a 24 quilts that need to go to the spa. That's not counting my mini quilts and table toppers that I need to quilt, besides the two quilts I am working on now. Lol!
I love your midnight moon blocks!
Your Midnight Moon blocks are awesome
Hi Pat! I love, love the red & pink borders 💗 They just make it!! Also, I meant to comment yesterday & didn't, but I loved all the bird projects-especially the one with the 6 life-like birds facing each other with the little flying geese!!! That was just gorgeous!!! Kudos to everyone 😊
I LOVE your red inner border! It is perfect!
I didn't see the cut off tip until you pointed it out!
I was in my sewing room earlier a d put a block together. I just remembered I forgot to look to see if I unplugged my iron my iron is in a different room. Helps me get up and move. Now off to check that iron
I really like the red and pink border!
Looks great and finishes off the inside - nice place for eye rest before border!
I appreciate how honest you are and that you let us know you're not perfect with those itty bitty blocks! Love you for that. I keep looking at my sashing and was trying to decide what I was going to do for the summer camp sashing... thanks for helping me decide!
I love love love this sashing - so much in fact that I am going to use it as my outside border by adding it to the two sides. Thank you Pat for giving us such a fun quilt pattern with some different piecing opportunities than we may have used in the past. All things we are learning from. We are really blessed you share your “quilty” knowledge with us😊.
Enjoy your time off!
I say leave the corn and bat the way they are. I like it
I'm like you - I tell myself it will be okay and then I drive myself crazy by always focusing on the one error. I feel like no matter how hard I try I still end up with that one thing in a quilt that my eyes are drawn to and it drives me crazy. I do love that Midnight Moon quilt with the fabric you've chosen. It's fantastic.
Hi Pat,
Thank you for the inspiration! Your videos help keep me motivated. I was determined to finish the quilts that needed bindings in July. I was able to finish all but one. Dang! So close! I have my "to do" list right in front of me on my table. On the list, half shows the quilts I'm working on and the other half show the quilts that need binding. That list is very helpful and keeps me focused. Again, thank you. I got this idea from watching you every morning!!! Great inspiration!!!!!
I decided very early on with Summer Camp to do a simpler sashing mainly to do with the cuts of fabric I had. I am now going to do a HST border with the rest of my fabric and have LOVED my very first QAL. ( no quilt police, so we are allowed to change and adapt heh?) THANK YOU PAT X
I love everything you do. And you are right. Our quilts are our own. We can change what ever we want to in any pattern. People should not complain. They should just do what they want and not say anything. Please keep up your good work. I have learned a lot from watching your channel. Thank you so much.
I was on the fence about remaking the bat, but it looks amazing! I think the lighter one will fit the quilt much better! Nice!
Pat, thank you for all the work you do, I am learning so much. Love your camp quilt border and layout.
Hello Pat. I love your top. You look good in red red everything red. Lol ❤️
Had to chuckle out loud at the great border debate, controversy, debacle. I live on one every single day! It’s exhausting!😂😂😂
I love watching because I always feel like as you are working on your projects I’m peeking in. I too wasn’t crazy about the blue sashing choice but, I was going to enjoying seeing how it’d come out… thinking I’d do the pink… love the orange/ red … but, mostly I like just seeing your work & choices as you go along. Usually I’m surprised that I end up loving what you choose. It all helps me make my own color/design choices and make the quilt I want to make. Sometimes I impress myself and sometimes I think hummm next time I’ll try something else… sometimes I do make changes and sometimes I’m over it and just finish it up and move on LOL 😂
Thank you 💕 so happy you enjoy the journey!
I love the layout and border
I amy not be able to make it to midnight but love your videos. I been working on summer camp. I have half of block 5 done. I am doing it for my mama for wheelchair lap quilt
I'm always changing my mind.cant believe people follow exactly what you do without changing it a little , make it theirs... but understand.. I totally enjoy watching your videos before heading to work. THANKS for everything you do.
You are such a joy!
It looks beautiful, I love it tons❣️
So liking the red.
