  • In this episode I show you how I make my Checkerboard Star Block using all 5 sizes of my scrappy stash baskets vs the traditional way.
    I explain why and how to choose which size strip baskets when cutting scrappy for this block! It's one of my very favorite scrappy go-to blocks that I have ever designed and I hope that you enjoy this visit in my sewing room! #Quilting

    I’m late to the party, but started using your method of processing my scraps. And I will start from the beginning of this series. I got your Scrappiness is Happiness. I agree scrap sewing is very fulfilling.

    Bought your ironing board cover. I have my moms wood ironing board my dad made when they got married in 1940. We always has an old scrap of sheet on it. NOW IT HAS THE PERFECT COVER IT HAS DESERVED ALL THES YEARS. IM SURE THEY ARE PROUD. I AM!!!!

    Lori you have made my quilting experience so much easier and fun! I have been teaching myself in my retirement and simply love your fabrics! I follow you and Fat Quarter Shop! I started one of Kimberly's sew along and have ordered some of your fabrics! I always thought a quilt had to be all the same block but you have shown how much fun and easy it can be to make beautiful quilts with different backgrounds and colors! I am now cutting my scraps! I have the roller, the design boards! Love them!

    Jut love your scrappy stash system! Also, the easy corner triangle technique is such a great idea. I’ve never seen another quilter (or pattern) do that. I’d like to put this block into a table runner. Can’t wait for your next knitting TH-cam and showing us how to make those cute spool pads.

    Dear Lori, I had never thought I would ever like your kind of quilts🙈. I‘m more a „neutral“ Person and love modern quilts. And then? I started watching your videos…., nothing at the beginning…., I watched more and more and more… and now I am one of your biggest fans. I started to love your bright colours, I especially I love the combinations of your backgrounds with those bright colours. I am fascinated by the creavity of all your blocks, of the variety they offer. I love listening to your explanations and stories about your grandma. I can’t stop watching your videos, even if it’s in the middle of the night like now. I could buy almost everything not only your fabrics but even your so nice things like washitape and mugs and and and. And of course I must buy all your books (not very easy in Europe…, same with fabrics, mugs and and and🙄)
    Dear Lori, I would like to thank you for bringing so much colour into my life. Thank you for teaching me all I learnt from you. Thank you for showing me life is so much more than what you have used to do and to be for years and years. A very very big THANK YOU!💕

Adding the corner squares last is genius, need to retrain my brain ...THANK YOU SEW MUCH. Look forward to seeing you each week.

I don’t like pastels.” So, I guess I’m making a table runner…..actually two. I already decided to make one for my sewing room. In pastels. Thanks for the great videos, always with good tips.
