Whenever possible when using long strips like a jr that need to be sewen together I cut the strips in half. Not only does this eliminate any waviness but it gives you more variety when choosing your strip sets. Thanks for the video. Btw, I absolutely love that red Ohio Star quilt on the wall.
You are an excellent teacher! I like that you give so many tips. I agree that sewing on the diagonal is a challenge. But, to me, it’s worth it in the end. (In the middle I had some doubts 😉)
Thank you, Fallon, this was so sew interesting! I'd like to make a quilt on point just because I have never tried it and your encouragement and honesty was more helpful than you will ever know. This is an excellent video, worth watching again.
Sewing diagonally is so much easier. It’s just like sewing straight rows but you just add triangles to each end of the row. It’s a mind game. I have more trouble with the square in a square because they tend to end up wonky. Thanks for the tutorial.
I would use the diagonal method. Both are beautiful, but I like the single square in the alternate block rather than triangles. I’ve made many diagonal quilts and don’t find them a problem. Your piecing is beautiful. ❤
What a great tutorial. Loved seeing both ways. For my brain I’d go with the sqr in a sqr method. My issue always seems to be the points. Sometimes I lose them no matter how hard I try to stay away from them. But practice makes better so I keep on tryin 😝thanks for taking the time for us all. Truly appreciated. 🤗
I totally agree! I think once it is quilted the seams may not stand out as much. It was so fun making both versions to really see the differences between both methods.
Thank you, Fallon, for this comparison. I haven't done either. However, I know the diagonal construction will require less matching of points in the center background. I would probably go with the diagonal method over square in a square. 🎶💐💖🫂
The MSQ / Square in a Square / Economy Block version would be very cool with a mix of low value background squares (errr.... triangles). Otherwise... I think it's the diagonal setting for the win.
They're both beautiful and either one would be easy ! Thank you for talking about the difference, that really helped me, my husband and I agree that with the short hair .2e noticed how pretty you are!
Thank you for another great tutorial! I am just finishing up my 1st on point quilt with sashing and cornerstones…. It does start to warp my brain! Love the finished results
I do think the diagonally pieced quilt looks cleaner and appears seamless compared to MSQC pattern which surprised me as I prefer the colours in the MSQC quilt. I sew my rows and then add the setting triangles when doing an on point pattern. I just find my brain copes with it better as then it’s just piecing rows. Like you I lay out my rows but I’ll sew both sides at the same time. I’ll sew both the rows with 3 blocks, 5 blocks etc. lastly I sew the single blocks with the 3 setting triangles. Thanks for another great tutorial.
Yes, I do have a lot,of jelly rolls - unfortunately I really love to just look at them so I have a hard time e actually using them!!! But I keep buying more😃😃😃
The diagonal setting and 9 patch are on my list. Thank you for showing the differences. Overall I would perfer the diagonal vs square in square unless adding a sashing.
Hi Fallon! I never did an on point quilt yet. I do like the clean look of the diagonal quilt but…. I also like the idea of having an on point quilt without being on point lol does that make sense? They both ate pretty!!
I like the traditional diagonal construction better. I think it is easier to keep things accurate. I put the entire quilt up on my design board, and then take two pieces at a time down holding them in the correct orientation until I get to the machine, confirm against the blocks still on the wall that I still have it right, and then sew, press and put it back up on the wall or grab the next piece that gets added. The first couple of rows are slow as I am triple checking that I am doing it right, then I start to recognize the right pieces in the right place so I don’t have to be quite as careful, although I do check each time by holding it up into the layout to make sure it is correct before proceeding. Some will say that is inefficient because I get up and go back and forth to the design wall so much, but I consider that a plus because it keeps me moving and stretching so my body doesn’t tighten up and I burn a few more calories in a day of sewing. It isn’t good for you to sit for hours at a time. I am not usually playing beat the clock when I sew, although I appreciate efficiencies.
When I make these diagonal quilts, I sew the blocks into rows and then add all of the triangles to the ends of the rows. That way, it is a straight quilt until the very end of the process.
I have not tried anything on the diagonal because I don't think I can do it! Square in a square blocks don't bother me, so I would definitely go with the MSQ one.
Its so fun that you can get the same quilt using two methods! It makes it possible to make a pattern you might otherwise not feel comfortable assembling.
I’m sorry I’m not sure which quilt you are looking for I had a few behind me throughout the video. All of the quilts are free tutorials on my channel though. The first quilt in the video is my Ohio Star quilt and it is a fairly recent video on my channel.
If I were to sew this pattern I would cut my jelly roll in half (on the fold) to reduce the possible wave in the strip. If I use the second (Missouri Star pattern) method I would starch the background fabic to reduce or eliminate the bias on the edges. Thank you very much for sharing.

I agree with you! It is so worth it in the end!
Awesome video! Great tips, Fallon. Both methods are great and the end result----ohhhhhhhh! Love this! I need to make this quilt!
Thanks! I'm stoked you loved it! Go for it-making that quilt is gonna be so much fun! What Jelly roll would you use?
❤Really appreciate the tips along the way…like how to keep your pieces organized!😊Thank you, Fallon! (Super cute t-shirts, too!)
Thanks so much! 😊

Both quilts are beautiful Fallon. But like you I would probably do the diagonal one because I like the solid block . Much cleaner look over all.
I totally agree! Both methods result in a beautiful quilt but I really like how there are not seams in that square.
Ive done the MSQC way and love it! It makes sense to my brain😊
Yes! It makes it so much easier to assemble. There are so many great "pros" to each method.
I would use the diagonal method. Both are beautiful, but I like the single square in the alternate block rather than triangles. I’ve made many diagonal quilts and don’t find them a problem. Your piecing is beautiful. ❤
Thank you! I don’t know why the diagonal rows play with my head so much but it sure does! It does get easier with each quilt I make though!
What a great tutorial. Loved seeing both ways. For my brain I’d go with the sqr in a sqr method. My issue always seems to be the points. Sometimes I lose them no matter how hard I try to stay away from them. But practice makes better so I keep on tryin 😝thanks for taking the time for us all. Truly appreciated. 🤗
When the points get lost I just remind myself there is still pretty fabric to look at! Lol
Great tutorial! Thank you! I like the first way better because it eliminates the seams in the BG fabric but both ways make a beautiful. Happy sewing.
I totally agree! I think once it is quilted the seams may not stand out as much. It was so fun making both versions to really see the differences between both methods.
I’ve never done a jelly roll or on point quilt. Both are on my to do list. I might need to try this out for a 2 for 1. Great video thanks!
I also love your quilt block shirt!!
You will have so much fun sewing this one! I’m looking forward to your live with Sean! He gets a great group in the morning. You will have fun!
@@sewbeitquilts Thank you so much, I would not be lying if I didn't say I was a bit nervous, but also very excited!

If you give the pattern a try I would love to hear your thoughts! The diagonal was so much easier to line up!
I think the MSQ block/ the square in a square is easier on the brain. They are both beautiful quilts!
Which one is that? I couldn’t find it to compare to. I love all of these you tube tutorials.
Thank you Donna!
Many many thanks for the time you gave to all of us! Your instructions and the visual to come along beside them is valuable😊
You are so very welcome! I really enjoy making these tutorials.
The MSQ / Square in a Square / Economy Block version would be very cool with a mix of low value background squares (errr.... triangles). Otherwise... I think it's the diagonal setting for the win.
That is a great idea! I do love having a way to use up my leftover low volume fabric!
They're both beautiful and either one would be easy ! Thank you for talking about the difference, that really helped me, my husband and I agree that with the short hair .2e noticed how pretty you are!
Oh thank you! You are so kind.

I will have to do both ways they both came out beautiful there is a lot of space for the quilter to have fun❤
I completely agree! They were both so fun to make!
Awesome quilts, I like them both!
Thank you! 😊. Judy, I really hope you have been having a wonderful week! Thank you for your support.

Thank you for watching!
Do love the first way you made your nine patch.

That part is hard! I should have don’t similar colorways because they really do look so different.

I know what you mean! They are packed so beautifully!
Thanks!
You’re welcome! Thank you so much for the wonderful blessing! ❤️
Beautiful! I love your fabrics, too!
Thank you.

I agree. I like that diagonal piecing much more. I have to work the same way… going slow.
I just finished my first on point baby quilt! I discovered that I can not think diagonally and plan to never do anything on point again! Lol
It really does play with my brain!
When I make these diagonal quilts, I sew the blocks into rows and then add all of the triangles to the ends of the rows. That way, it is a straight quilt until the very end of the process.

What in the love of straight cuts is that ruler?? ❤
Great video!! What is the red and white quilt hanging behind you in the video?
I think you found the quilt, the Ohio Star quilt, if you were looking for a different quilt please let me know. Thank you for watching my videos!
I think I would choose the diagonal setting, less pieces to put together.
I love you❤ I want to start Do you have a beginner video. I know nothing😊
What model is the Juki?

Great tip! Yes, shortening the strip would really help and it would also allow for more 9 patch combinations too.
