I made a baby quilt based on another tutorial you did using this technique. After the blocks were assembled , cut and reassembled I decided to appliqué white circles of three different sizes all over the quilt. I named it "bubbles". It came out so cute. Thank you for the tutorial!
This kind of no pattern quilts are my favorite and so much fun to make! I am going to mix charm and mini charm packs! The hardest part for me is not over thinking the initial layout of fabrics. I have spent hours in the past trying to get things perfect, and never being happy with the result. I have made progress on letting go and not over thinking. Fun Fun Fun!
What I have done is I enlisted my husband or a son take a gander and how it is finally randomized. I trust his decisions. He has a good sense of not overthinking.
As a beginner you make the process less daunting by your explanations and filming. This is going to definitely be the second quilt we will make. Thankyou so much. ❤
Also a great pieced backing of a complicated quilt using up your scraps and leftover fabric! I just finished a VERY complicated quilt so I’m using French General panels for the coordinating lap quilt. This would make a great backing for the lap quilt using my leftovers! Yay, I love it! I think I’ll just do the squares and not cut it up.
Please show us somewhere how you starch your little charm packs. I’ve seen how you do larger pieces of fabric but what do you place them on to starch being they’re so small and so many so they can dry overnight? I love this way of making a quilt of any kind. Thanks Kimberly! ❤❤❤
It's the same process as any other fabric on a towel to starch then on a drying rack to dry- she has shown how she starches jelly roll strips too. Everyone starches how they starch. Light, Medium and Heavy. Kimberly does Kimberly and do what I am doing how I feel like for the day -which can vary from medium to medium heavy from day to day 😉😊
For those who dip fabric in starch, I dipped my precuts, put them in a salad spinner (folded nicely) and they came out wonderful. I emptied the spinner a couple times during each "load" and then hung them on the rack. I think very little ironing will be needed.
I just made this quilt! I had very similar fabric and was looking for something more fun than just a square patch quilt. It turned out so cute!!! I literally followed every step of this tutorial to get great results. It was for my daughter who wanted a bigger quilt so I just made more 5 square blocks. Thank you Kimberly for your awesome tutorials. I love how you explain everything and are so careful to be precise. I really appreciate your attention to every detail. I also like that you go a little slower on each step so we can stay with you. Thank you soooo much! On to my next quilt! xo
Hello! I'm still trying to catch up watching all the videos that posted while I was away visiting the grandkids. I hope you have a wonderful week ahead! Thank you for posting and sharing your talent.
I got a call from my girlfriend today, she stated "I just don't know what to do what all my mom's clothing (she made them all) and I just can't part with them, but I don't wear them." I suggested making a memory quilt out of her mom's favorite dresses and vests. The first pattern I thought of was this one you demonstrated yesterday, it will be easy to cut-up the fabric into 5" squares and make this simple, yet beautiful quilt for her. Since she has two daughters, I am going to make two lap quilts (one for each of her daughter's). Thank you for the inspiration for this beautiful quilt pattern. By the way, I did view the other video where you show the 10" squares, but I really like the patchwork look of the 5" squares in this specific pattern. You are right, the 10" squares would be perfect for the Kaffe design fabric.
I love everything about this video! The time-lapse, the music played during it, and how you explain what’s going on. I have a bucket of 5” charms scraps that will be great for this, and like you said, as long as you don’t overthink the placement of them it’s a simple one! Thank you for sharing this and can’t wait to get one done! 🧵 Happy quilting!
If you used the same strong colour in the middle of each of the 25 square you could have a 2 little matching square in the centre of each block. Just like the disappearing 9 patch.
I absolutely love these ladies. I am only about two years old in my quilting journey. But these ladies have encouraged me in so many ways. I'm still so very new. And this block in particular is fabulous. Great video ladies!!!
Thank you for this cute quilt idea. I'm new to quilting and seeing all the different ways you can use charm packs, layer cakes mini charms are very helpful. You're a very good teacher. Have a good day.
I LOVE it!! I make stash busting charm packs with my Accuquilt. This will definitely be a go to pattern for quick baby quilts and other gifts. Thank you!
P.S. I am anxious to hear your experience at a quilt retreat. And your sleeves on your blouse are super cute so I bet the whole ensemble looks terrific. 🥰❤️ Chris
Thanks, Kimberly! Love the simplicity and care-free attitude while doing this! I stress over every little seam whether it is in the cutting, matching up, or piecing... Needed to see this, and hear your inspiring comments. It is fun to watch and study over your videos. Shopping at your website is fun. Thanks for making quilts less stressful to make and easier to accept the "boo boos" in my sewing room!
I love the precision you teach. It has made my quilting journey so much easier that I learned cutting and pressing from watching your videos. I, too, am super picky about colors and how they are laid out. Unregulated scrappy is just not in my wheelhouse, LOL. Thank you for sharing your talent!
This is so awesome. It’s great to see another Kimberly tutorial video! I love this concept because you can start with any size square and do the same thing. This would be a great scrap buster or for those times when you would like to give someone a quilt but don’t have that much time. Thanks a bunch!!
I appreciate how you videoed each of the blocks not just once. I’m part of a FB private group and we exchange 5 inch squares each month. I’m sharing this with my group, it’s perfect for us. Thanks so much!
I made one of these quilts using Cottage Linen Closet fabric by Brenda Riddle and it turned out so beautiful I decided to keep it for myself instead of giving it to a friend. I will make another one for the friend😍. Thanks Kimberly for this fun pattern!
Another inspiring video! Thank you, Kimberly! I love how you talk us through your thoughts along the process. I learn so much from you. This cute quilt inspires me to use a Laurie Holt layer cake I have. I think it would look nice with her vintage fabric!
If you're mixing charm packs from different designers/makers it makes a lot of sense to go ahead and cut them down to 4.5" bc inevitably one is just slightly bigger than the other charm pack...ask me how I know🙄😁 plus it gets rid of those annoying pinked edges and gives more accuracy when sewing. Kimberly was right on this one.
Thank you so much for all your videos. You are very generous in sharing your time and knowledge. It has been a tremendous help for a new quilter like myself.
This is perfect! I just finished a top that had a lot of HSTs and snowballed corners. I have some charm packs I’ve been wanting to use as well. Thanks FQS!
This is such a great quilt that is easy but looks more complicated than it really is. I definitely want to make this at some point. Thanks for the tutorial FQS and Kimberly!
Thank You Ms Kimberly, How inspiring, I would really love to try this as a starter quilt; as I have not sewn for over thirty years. I'll let you know how it turns out and how long it takes start to finish.
The environment and I thank you to anyone who uses NON AEROSOL CANS for starching. Please reconsider switching to a spray bottle if you use can aerosol spray. 🙏🏻
I use old fashioned starch where you mix it yourself. Put it in a clean spray bottle and spray away. Absolutely agree starch makes a better finished project for me.
@@lassitterfamilygospelandbl7339 I make my own starch too, though I do have spray starch in aeorosol can. I also like using StaFlo at 50:50 ratio. It has the advantage of being able to change ratios based on needs; it stays suspended better than homemade and does not go "off". Though sometimes I put a little bit of alcohol in it for help with that...not enough to harm fabric. A good spray bottle delivers a fine, even mist and makes short work.
Absolutely love this video. I've always messed up on sewing blocks and this would make my sewing them all together would make it a lot easier! Thank you Kimberly and staff you do amazing ing job and you keep us all motivated 💕🥰
Great choice of fabrics. Beautiful! Kimberly you do sew that fast. Lol. Thanks for another great quilt idea and suggesting using a layer cake instead of charms. Now another quilt added to my projects.
love the idea but laughing becuase you DID pay attention to what was next to what lololol love it fast and easy baby quilts!!! and I am seeing myself cutting squares with my accuquilt and using up scraps! thanks for the ideas!
Kimberly thank you for this video. I have a couple of sets of charm packs. That I wasn't sure what I was going to do with them. But now I have the answer because of this video. Thank you again.
Quilting + True Crime = Perfect Combo on a rainy day. 😊

請問那白板怎樣做的?
This quilt reminds me of Holly Hobby for some reason. When I was little I Loved Holly Hobby. Thanks FQS for sharing this happy quilt. 💗
I know we’re supposed to be paying attention to the sewing, and I am. But I have to say how much I love those smocked cuffs. Your top is beautiful!
Fun quick quilt. I would keep the full 5" square. Thanks for showing us the whole
process Kimberly!
This would be a perfect charity quilt especially for new sewers.
Thank you Kimberly for another great pattern.
As a beginner you make the process less daunting by your explanations and filming. This is going to definitely be the second quilt we will make. Thankyou so much. ❤
This would be a great project after you finish a challenging project.
Great idea!

I wish I had kept my salad spinner now!
I love this block. Especially for charity quilts. Thank you.
blacks, greys and neutrals are beautiful, they are a very basic and neutral color palette that blends well with other colors.

Love this. I'm an experienced quilter , but never saw this before. Great Thank you.
I’ve never seen chain piecing like that! It’s absolutely genius!! I can’t wait to try this method myself!!

Good idea
i thought similarly as I watched: put the little squares all in the center. I'm a novice so it's good to find I wasn't out in left field.🙄
My take exactly. I would also try mixing quarters between blocks. Might even out some of the colors. Great go to for using scraps for charity quilts.
Thank you Kimberly! It was soooo nice to watch or if your video's again. You are amazing! Why is America so far? Don't ever stop being a "teacher" 😊
👍👍Fun, fun, fun.... great beginner quilt. Don't think I'd take the time to trim the 5"...
I absolutely love these ladies. I am only about two years old in my quilting journey. But these ladies have encouraged me in so many ways. I'm still so very new. And this block in particular is fabulous. Great video ladies!!!

Cute pattern thanks for showing. Will be fun to do to use up different fabrics May try with Christmas fabrics. ❤️
Sew sew sew, iron iron iron, fun fun fun!! I love this quote!!! I love your transparency most of all Kimberly!! It’s refreshing!!!
I LOVE it!! I make stash busting charm packs with my Accuquilt. This will definitely be a go to pattern for quick baby quilts and other gifts. Thank you!
I love this quilt. It seems so much fun. This will be my next quilt. Thank you.
Good Evening Kimberly, I love the fabrics and how this turned out. ❤️❤️❤️ Have a wonderful weekend. 🥰 Chris
P.S. I am anxious to hear your experience at a quilt retreat. And your sleeves on your blouse are super cute so I bet the whole ensemble looks terrific. 🥰❤️ Chris
This was great! Love the simplicity. Sometimes those are just the best. Happy quilting!
Everything you touch turns out so beautiful.

Thank you for sharing this with me. I'm always looking for new ways to sew my squares and be creative about it. Each quilt has its own character
I love this idea! Looks like a giant version of a tossed 9-patch!!
Excellent video, and I love the quilt...how cool!! Thanks Kimberly. ❤
The technique is awesome. All the chain piecing is so great. I’ve never seen that done before. Thank you.
I love the precision you teach. It has made my quilting journey so much easier that I learned cutting and pressing from watching your videos. I, too, am super picky about colors and how they are laid out. Unregulated scrappy is just not in my wheelhouse, LOL. Thank you for sharing your talent!
I hate wasting fabric, so I’d keep the 5” squares, but this is a great idea. Thank you
If you listen at the very beginning, she tells the reason she cuts them. Very informative.
I really love the warm color tones you used in this quilt. Will definitely try to copy it and the design. Thank you !
This is so awesome. It’s great to see another Kimberly tutorial video! I love this concept because you can start with any size square and do the same thing.

Such a fun relaxing quilt /table top to make. Best of all a quick way to use some of the fun charm back /layercakes I already have. Thank you
I like the colors of the charms. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for comment.
Using an AccuQuilt cutter would get this done even faster for you! Beautiful work!
Another inspiring video! Thank you, Kimberly! I love how you talk us through your thoughts along the process. I learn so much from you. This cute quilt inspires me to use a Laurie Holt layer cake I have. I think it would look nice with her vintage fabric!

This give me the idea of using charms and cutting strips in half to use a line for postage stamp quilt.
Hi Kimberly, I love your videos they really are informative, I really like this quilt I think scrappy quilts are my favorites.
Absolutely love to watch you make quilts! It’s mesmerizing and relaxing! Thank you so so much!
Thank you so much for all your videos. You are very generous in sharing your time and knowledge. It has been a tremendous help for a new quilter like myself.
Fabulous Kimberly. I will be making this one. Thank you :)
This is the quilt pattern I was looking for. Thank you!!! It’s beautiful.💖💖💖
Kimberly, I like the quilt you created with charm packs. I especially appreciate this video because I have a LOT of charm packs. :-D Thank you!
I love these blocks! Looks like a lot of fun to make. It turned out so pretty. Lots of possibilities with the size. Thanks for sharing Kimberly. 💕🧵👑
Another great video Kimberly. So beginner friendly and doesn’t require much thinking 😊. Totally enjoyed watching.
I love that pattern. Thank you so much.
WE LOVE TO WATCH YOU SEW AND DO ALL THE THINGS. THIS IS GREAT AND WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU DO MORE OF THIS. THANK YOU KIMBERLY.
I love how this was made. I will definitely try this. Thank you.
I’m making this now but smaller. Just going to cut in half and resew. Had only 1
Charm square. Thank you again, Kimberly.
This was a fun video! Thanks! Love watching Kimberly make anything, but this quilt is a keeper for me. 🤗
Thank you Kimberly, this will be so fun to tackle.
Love this video. The sewing technique of the 25 squares is such a time saver. Thank you!
❤❤❤thanks for sharing I definitely need to look at my charms
What an awesome creation! I have tons of charm packs and I can tackle and get rid of some stash. Thank you!
Great pattern and easy. I'm all over easy. Just love this.
Great tutorial. I have lots of 5 inch squares from leftovers. A good way to use them for a charity quilt.
Another awesome video!! Thank you!!
Great video, great pattern. Lots of possibilities!
Thanks Kimberly it was a great tutorial. Can’t wait to try it.
Love watching you create!!!
This is perfect! I just finished a top that had a lot of HSTs and snowballed corners. I have some charm packs I’ve been wanting to use as well. Thanks FQS!
Very pretty fabrics nice quilt
You are the best teacher, Kimberly, I love your honesty and your explanations, some things we might not think of ahead of time.
This is such a great quilt that is easy but looks more complicated than it really is. I definitely want to make this at some point. Thanks for the tutorial FQS and Kimberly!
Cute and manageable even for beginners!
This is the perfect no fuss quilt! Thank you so much for the video!! ❤
I'm actually doing a charm pack quit now and I'm SOOOOO HAPPY I watched this video, this is AWESOME

Thank you for this really neat pattern. I needed an idea fora baby quilt so I'm making this with Kona pastels. It is such a unique pattern!
So pretty! Perfect time to use the auto-life foot option on your machine. Also, use a big wool mat so you don't have to move the fabric so much too.
Hello Lorri! Thank you for the suggestion! Kimberly does not like to use wool mats because she does not like the smell.
Loved this video Kimberly!
This would be really cute as a table runner in Christmas fabric!
Great idea, good video, thank you for sharing
Thank you..im a beginner and this will be perfect!!
Thank you. Kimberly. Nice easy. Quilt
Absolutely love this video. I've always messed up on sewing blocks and this would make my sewing them all together would make it a lot easier! Thank you Kimberly and staff you do amazing
ing job and you keep us all motivated 💕🥰
Great choice of fabrics. Beautiful! Kimberly you do sew that fast. Lol. Thanks for another great quilt idea and suggesting using a layer cake instead of charms. Now another quilt added to my projects.
Late to the party, but this is a super cute and easy idea. Thank you
love the idea but laughing becuase you DID pay attention to what was next to what lololol love it fast and easy baby quilts!!! and I am seeing myself cutting squares with my accuquilt and using up scraps! thanks for the ideas!
This is a great quilt. I love how scrappy it is.
Kimberly, this is adorable. Excellent job. Thank you.
Love it, so easy, so pretty, I have a thousand ideas for my quilt project.
I'm kind of excited to "disappear" these in different ways and see the result. Basically make some different cuts and play with that!
What a quick and beautiful project. Thank for the idea.
Kimberly thank you for this video. I have a couple of sets of charm packs. That I wasn't sure what I was going to do with them. But now I have the answer because of this video. Thank you again.
Love, love, love the rotating cutting mat. I know what I'm getting for Christmas ...... if I can wait that long. 😄
Fantastic tutorial!!!!
Love love love it.
