    I think because September is so linked to going back to school makes it feel like the summer is over.

    @terryblair966 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I would like to see the layout. Your Bats&Boos quilt looks great. Oh my Stars looks great and I like the ideas/changes.you come up with. Your brain must run a 100 mi a minute so you get all these creations completed. This is what makes you so special and we are great friends for it.

    I feel the same way about the last day of August!! This year we’re going out with smoke from the fires 🔥 we had company and couldn’t enjoy the backyard or pool. Looking forward to Fall and winter!

  • @cherylbaker5915
    @cherylbaker5915 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'd like to see the names of the blocks. Looking forward to this quilt along. Thanks for offering your book as an e-book on Amazon. I try not to buy any more actual quilt books anymore, but I'm happy to buy the e-books.

    I ran screaming from south Texas 12 years ago because of the heat. I landed in WV and have truly enjoyed having four real seasons! This summer made me seriously consider moving farther north, so I'm glad to see August go, especially since I need to quilt the big quilt I made for my darling daughter, and having it draped all over me in the summer just will not do. Thank you for your daily videos, my friend! They make my day so much brighter.

  • @lindiuys4327

    Hi Pat. In South Africa, August is the end of winter ❄️. 1 September is officially spring day for us.

  • @lorettasmith7594
    @lorettasmith7594 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Yes! Love the tips for the oh my stars quilt. Understanding the different layout ideas helps me to decide which fabric I want use. And it also helps me to make sure my stars will stand out. Thank you for taking the time to do this! Very helpful!

    Fall is tomorrow, we'll not really. Lol 😁 I know what you mean. To me it seams the days get shorter quicker than they get longer. Sometimes less sunlight is hard on me. You have a blessed day! 💋

    Hi Pat...Before Covid, 2 neighbors and I frequently sewed together. We often took our quilt blocks back and forth to each others houses. We found that a flannel backed vinyl tablecloth ($3-4 @ Walmart) was great when we got to the design wall portion. We'd put our blocks on it, then roll it up to take back and forth. That might be an option for when you need your wall for other things. We could unroll it and pin to a wall, open on the floor, or on a bed when needed. I hope that helps. I love tuning in first thing in the morning. Oh, and I too feel like Aug is the end of summer. Happy September. I hope we have some cooler weather.

    • @marlahanks7278
      @marlahanks7278 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Robin Escotto I've used a tablecloth like that several times to take blocks back & forth to sew days! They work wonders :)

  • @karlabergwalker3332
    @karlabergwalker3332 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Great tips for Oh, My Stars! Yes, to see the next quilt layout and blocks. It helps me plan for my fabrics. Yes, it's time for some cooler weather. I'm on the other side of the Potomac River in Maryland, so my weather is similar to yours, Pat! Happy September and Happy Fall!!!

  • @pamkahmann3833
    @pamkahmann3833 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Absolutely love your bats and boos quilt. Love all your choices. I have your Oh My Stars pattern and I am looking forward to getting started. I spend a LOT of time checking and changing the layout. Every time I move one square it means another one needs to be moved.😂 I don’t usually do mystery quilts because the time and money spent to end up with a quilt I don’t love is too much of a risk for me. Thanks for the videos. I really enjoy them.

  • @lorettasmith7594
    @lorettasmith7594 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I enjoy it when it’s total mystery. Listing block in the layout would be fine with me!

  • @hollywaddell6727

    Thank you for more tips on the Oh, My Stars quilt. That pattern seems to be an all-time favorite among your followers which indicates it should go on my list of possibles.

  • @jeffcheuvront132
    @jeffcheuvront132 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I really love you're narrow border and then a binding of the same color! I love a mystery sew a long. I'll do it any way you present it honestly. Love,your videos and you. Thanks for sharing your talents.

  • @franwuertz5704
    @franwuertz5704 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I believe we think of the end of summer now because for so many years the school year started and our daily routines went back to the hectic routines of school, sport activities and all that. Being a retired teacher, I still am tempted to buy school supplies, but resists. I can also enjoy the lovely weather that continues through September and part of October.

  • @sheryllang3062
    @sheryllang3062 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Love how your bats and boos quilt turned out. Just beautiful!!!

  • @jylromain6439
    @jylromain6439 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I just had a thought as you spoke about having to take your quilt down and hoping you can keep it all in place. What if you put a large piece of flannel on the quilt wall, then put the quilt on that and then just rolled it up the way you do with a puzzle that isn't finished? For now, you could put the flannel on a table and transfer the quilt to it and roll, but in the future, maybe that would work on the wall. If it holds puzzle pieces, it should hold quilt squares. Maybe make the layout a separate post for those of us who want it and then the ones who want to be surprised can ignore that post.

    I put together my first Oh My Stars quilt top . Used squares that have been hanging around not knowing what to do. Came out very nice. Mindy (my cat) and I spend our lunch time with you every day. love your videos. Am also keeping up the summer soiree.

    I have an "Oh My Stars" ready to sew. I used left over 4-1/2" squares from another quilt project. The tips and ideas came just in time for me to implement.

  • @janmunson7328
    @janmunson7328 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I like the mystery part. Sometimes my colors don't always turn out 100%, but that's okay. Thanks for tips on Oh My Stars.

  • @juliec2393
    @juliec2393 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Catching up, Bats & Boos = Perfection! I like the fat binding effect, especially for the reason you mention, it keeps all the seams in check.

  • @karentzn
    @karentzn 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Your bats & boos borders are fantastic. I like your idea about the 1 1/4” border and binding. I enjoyed seeing how you laid out the Oh My Stars for the placement colours

  • @KathleenQuilter

    I would like to see the layout with the block design so I can plan my colors.

  • @daniellebernard4770
    @daniellebernard4770 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I like the surprise when doing a quilt along, it helps me slow down on the process and works on putting everything together at the end (matching colors …)
    Thanks for the tips 👍

  • @susanvoth5831
    @susanvoth5831 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I have discovered that I am not fond of surprises when quilting. I’ve made some time consuming (ripping out) and expensive (abandoning projects) mistakes with color and print usage in mystery quilts. So, personally, I like information at the beginning of a project. Thank you for asking.

    • @lorriemcdonnell7027

  • @MD-lo5zd
    @MD-lo5zd 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    @Pat Sloan
    A lot of people love it to be an actual mystery they find it really exciting; and those of us who like to see the whole project before we start sewing can simple wait to start.

  • @mustangmammy7045
    @mustangmammy7045 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I’m the same way about the same pattern in different colors not touching any way, even corner to corner. 🤣

  • @Ldeb54
    @Ldeb54 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have enjoyed your tips on the Oh My Stars quilt. Waiting for my fabric to arrive and looking forward to making it. I love fall. School starting brings an end to summer fun even though the season doesn’t end till sept. 22. Happy quilting!! Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us!

    I have learnt the hard way to always place the colours and display it to see whether it looks good before piecing it together.you do it all the time Pat.Come back to it and then see if it gives you joy..also make it your own.We are the boss of our quilt.Thankyou for always replying to my emails.xx

  • @cindywoelky7267
    @cindywoelky7267 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hello, I made the Star quilt two years ago, for a baby boy. I used a nice simple jungle sketching charm pack, then I added solid colors. I wanted a quilt fabric in the quilt that when he is 8 ish he won't say it's a baby quilt. LOL. I don't have a space for a design wall, so I use a sheet of plywood on horses, in my garage, place a sheet on it and start laying my quilts out. We do what we can.

    Yes love the tips on the Oh my Stars quilt! I am just getting started and it is very helpful to have your guidance on how to approach and organize the fabrics. Thank you so much for everything you do! 💕 Very excited for the Happy Everything project too. I just received my book and am anxiously awaiting the fabric requirements to start my selection for this project. I would be happy to see the blocks listing in the pattern layout. I think it might help with fabric selection, this is the area I find challenging.

  • @karenmilligan5583
    @karenmilligan5583 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @KTCanSew2
    @KTCanSew2 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    How about a vote for your favorite QAL? You put out 3 of your previous block patterns and take a poll. Post the winning pattern and then you can focus on your book while still leaving it kind of a mystery for everyone.

  • @barbblincow5303

  • @maryjocloke9115
    @maryjocloke9115 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Pat, you could provide both layouts. In one, have the name of the blocks and the other one without block names. That way, if a person did not want to know, they can pass on downloading that version.

    brilliant. Likr knowing what the block is called. I love the oh my stars pattern. And the design wall really helps. I am so looking forward to the cooler weather. And the end of the month is always a big event. A new month is a new beginning.

  • @mariamcphail
    @mariamcphail 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love your 'Oh My Stars'! I've been wanting to make one for a while now. I don't buy many precuts but I do have two same Charm Square packages in my very small stash. I'll have to find some coordinating fabric first. I also love your small border matching the binding idea. I think I'll have to use that sometime.
    My favourite season is summer so please don't tell me it's fall already! :) There's officially three more weeks of summer left!
    Looking forward to your upcoming sew along. I think I like the surprise element. It makes it more fun!

  • @dawnbarry2985
    @dawnbarry2985 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for the advice on using a "holiday" pattern for other uses. Unless it is pictorial, just changing the colors makes a totally different feel. I think your flimsy came out great, I love the look of a color coordinated scrap quilt.

  • @shariestranathan7488
    @shariestranathan7488 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

  • @jeanettemastin6545
    @jeanettemastin6545 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    In Row 6, you might want to separate the 2 Santa squares a little more. Even though they aren't right next to each other, they jump out to me. Just a suggestion.

    @thewaldens90 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Soon as I got my first look, your stars really popped, so that's success! Pat, PLEASE be careful on the ladder when you move your quilt blocks on the design wall. Your wrists must be getting nervous at the thought of you on a ladder. Can Greg do it instead?

  • @donnamom6158
    @donnamom6158 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1
