Di, greetings from Ireland a small country off of the far western corner of Europe. As far as crafting goes I live in a dead zone. 9 years ago I started teaching myself quilt making. Di, your down to earth approach and no gimmicks is calming to watch.L ove this quilt. I enjoy Beth at my sewing room, Donna Jordan, FQS & Karen Brown of just get it done quilts and now yours. The fact people take the time to film tutorials and give tips is something I appreciate. Thanks! Slainte (Irish for good health)
I have never been one to like scrappy looking quilts. But I really DO LIKE this pattern of yours!! Maybe because there is symmetry in the colors? Thanks for sharing your ideas with us.
On your question of how to add round and round, I think the closest is either more like Boston Commons (see Opinionated Quilter) or 1 BIG! Trip Around block makes whole quilt (see Jordan Quilting). For this multiple, smaller Trips, this is the best way I've seen. Tks so much for your version. Love the colors and movement.
I made this pattern 21 years ago and always intended to make another one. Your top is so delightful that I am determined to stop procrastinating and to make my second top this year 😀 can’t wait to see yours quilted.
And here it is!!! I showed the complete quilt in this video about making a design wall quilt. It's towards the end of the video. Heres a link: th-cam.com/video/jcujLmyW6Ak/w-d-xo.html Thank you for watching my videos!!!
Thank you so much Barb. That’s what coordinating your colors will do for you. I just gave it away to someone who’s loved it from the first time she saw it.
I just discovered your channel today and I really love your method of making this pattern. I have just completed a trip around the world quilt and I swore in Scarlet O’hara fashion “ As God is my witness, NEVER AGAIN “! But it was made with hundreds of individual squares sewn in a particular pattern. I’m actually looking forward to trying this method. Thank you for a great tutorial.
Frankly my dear…🤣 I think now that you know you’ll have to pull up your bloomers and make another one 🤣😍 I’m so glad you found me Kathy 😍. Thanks for watching my channel.
Very beautiful! My favorite quilts are Scrap Quilts! Just reminds me of the women from years ago that had very little to work with and cherished every piece of fabric to put in a quilt! Love your quilt!
Thanks for these two Scrappy Trip Around the World Quilt videos. I always have a scrap quilt or two going, and I'll check my scraps to see about making one of these!
Thank you, Di. This toot is a great one. I enjoy you and the way you teach and share.. very natural, plus not long and drawn out. My mind is churning now to make my first one in this pattern. ♥️
doing Lori Holt's Great Granny right now... I will do this version of the scrappy Trip later this year. Yes, my pieces for the Gr. Granny are 1 1/2. Ive been sewing and quilting a long time and somewhere way back then I cut my scraps that little. Now I save ony 2 inches and larger.. But, hey I already did the cutting so now I will do the sewing. Like you videos..
I bought pizza boxes at my local restaurant supply store. They hold five stacks of 2.5" strips about 1.25" deep. I'm working a random scrap project right now, but a TATW might be in my line up again. Glad I found your channel.
Absolutely lovely tutorial. Thank you so very much. Just love your scrappy round the world quilt top. I can’t wait to see it when it’s completed. I’m sure it’s done by now. I just came up on your videos this morning. Yes I liked and subscribed. Hope you’re having a great and glorious day wherever in the world you may be. Where do you live close by? I have way more fabric than I’ll ever get through. In my lifetime, it would be great to have an old fashion sewing bee.
Thanks MsAmberSunshine, glad you found my channel. I’m in Boise, ID. Where do you hail from? I’ve done sewing bees in that past but called them epic sew day.
@@sisterchicksquilting Good morning! I’m a morning person sipping a half and half. Half Expresso and half Ryze mushroom coffee. I’m In Hartford Wisconsin.
So beautiful! I have to make one like that. I've seen a couple like yours and couldn't figure out how it was achieved. Now I know. It looks like one of those color genius quilts.
Your quilt is beautiful! I have been searching for a good tutorial to make this quilt. After looking at several tutorials I was still not sure. Your tutorial is excellent. Everything is explained so very well. My search has ended. At least for a tutorial. Now to figure out my fabrics which your explanation of was excellent. Thank you for sharing!!
Jim, thank you so much. I’m so glad my tutorial resonated with you. In my opinion color is more important than construction because it’s more about the final look for me. If you’re on Instagram I’d love if you would post your finished quilt and tag me so I can see it. Thank you for watching my videos❣️
Before i'd cut a 1" square from a triangle, i'd make a hst or an hourglass unit, so i'd be saving more area, of the bits. A 2 tone square or hst will work in a lot of scrappy quilts.
I am currently working on Crossroads. Wow! You have made it much simpler. I have made this block many times but couldn’t seem to have the squares line up in a pleasing way. The sixteen squares block gives me more control for colour unity. ❤️Happy Canada Day from a happy Canuck 😇
That was me before I figured out how to make it Marlene. I was so surprised at how easy it was. I really appreciate you watching my channel thank you so much😊‼️
Thank you for that lovely story, I feel I am the same way( with almost everything). My mantra is "it might come in handy some day". The quilt top has turned out beautifully and I really appreciate your tips and tricks.
That’s exactly the thing I liked about the way I did it Rhonda, using the same colors in every block in the same position. Color is amazing! Thanks for watching my videos😍❣️
I just love that quilt. It's nice to be able to make something that saves the scraps. I don't care how small they are, if you can make a quilt out of it hang on to it. You're very special keep up the good work I enjoyed it.
After a long, busy but fun day in my sewing room, I get to sit down, grab my hand sewing and watch you work. Thanks for sharing your talent and inspiration.
They are wonderful quilts and becuase the blocks are so big they work up fast. If you didn't see the video that preceeds this one, where I teach how to pull colors and make the block, here is a link. th-cam.com/video/MTfKUnKIFGk/w-d-xo.html Thank you for watching my channel!!!
I love this! Your quilt turned out fabulous. And I never would have figured out how easily the block goes together. Now, matching the seams is another story, but what a great challenge. Thanks for sharing, and this is definitely going into my long list of designs I would like to make.
Glad it was helpful! And...it wasn't that easy matching the seams when sewing the blocks. I did nest them and even if they were both going the same way I would turn one and nest it anyway. I was a lot faster that I thought it would be. TFW!
Love it. I have a few of these blocks made but I didn't pay attention to color placement. Must see what they look like when I put them together. Might get a medallion to start a quilt.
I juse saw my friends way, way scrappy one and it's fun and very busy! She just threw the strips together with no organization. Have fun making yours and thanks for watching!
So stunning love it. I am so inspired to get one of these started. Just as soon as I get some of my quilts completed that I have started lol. Thanks for your videos
Your quilt is so pretty. I want to try a trip around the world . I have always thought it would be too complicated but you have explained it so well I am going to do it. Thanks !
Watch this video, it's part 1: th-cam.com/video/MTfKUnKIFGk/w-d-xo.html I teach how to sort the color and make the blocks in this video. You goit this! Thanks for watching my videos!!!!
Hi, Di! I love your videos - they’re terrific! I love, love, love this quilt and have been recently thinking about making one, too! Thanks for all the tips! So helpful! Your quilt is GORGEOUS!!
Di, this quilt is beautiful! I have a pretty good start on my collection of scraps and I have been wanting to do this so here goes. Thanks for the tips. ❤️
Wonderful! I was surprised at how fast it worked up. Enjoy the process and if you have an Instagram account please use the hashtag #sisterchicksquilting so I can see it. Thank you for watching!
LOVE this!! I am attempting right now! Quilting is brand new for me and I've been watching video after video so I can learn. I'm trying to figure out if I can do this type as a "quilt as you go" since it will likely be quite an ordeal for me to do the quilting part once the blocks are together. I've almost got all my strips cut and then over the next couple of days, I'll be sewing them together, making the "tube" and so forth. Thank you for your wonderful tutorial. Even a beginner like me has hope!
Thank you so much for watching my video😍❣️ May I be so bold as to give you some advice? I wouldn’t try a quilt as you go method on that quilt. There are quilt patterns specifically made for quilting as you go., you might want to try one of those types first. In fact in a couple of weeks I’m going to make a table runner that is quilt as you go. You also might try straight line quilting on your domestic. There are a lot of tutorials out there about straight line quilting how to get it through your machine how to roll it, etc. Since this is going to be one of your first quilts, I would pay to have someone machine quilt it. No offense is intended, I’ve just had a lot of experience with first time and newer quilters. Again, TFW😍❣️
@@sisterchicksquilting No offense taken at all! Thank you for your advice. I recently ordered a walking foot and it has a guide bar on it so I will watch some tutorials about using it. I'm determined to figure this stuff out. I've been at home during all this ...nonsense... so I've got nothing but time on my hands. I watched tutorials at the start of the pandemic to learn how to make masks and they were able to teach this old dog some new tricks so hopefully I can get some simple quilts done! Thank you again - I'm looking forward to watching your videos and learning as I go. 🙂
That is how I started quilting on my domestic was with a walking foot and the guide bar. The difficult part for me was when I quilted (the design was cross hatching) a queen size quilt on my domestic! LOL The quilt was so big which made the project quite a difficult task. You know I'm an old dog too and am glad you're learning new tricks!
@@sisterchicksquilting Well this should get interesting...I just picked out the seams of the first batch and I'm pretty sure I already messed up. I have never been good at "visualizing" and I think I ripped out the wrong row at least once! Should I ever manage to get this done, it will be a miracle! Ha!!!
@@Janorama56 Don't be so hard on your self. I picked out the wrong seams several times while I was making this quilt. Hmmm, maybe I should flim all the times I unpick, break/change a needle, sew the wrong pieces together or sew row after row with no bobbin thread. One of my favorites sayings is, "If you only knew how many curse words are included in this homemade gift!"
Don’t know how I missed this video. Was searching for the TAW pattern and saw Kates from the last homely house but was looking for more scrappy. Love your idea but especially how you were of making the tube and separating. My question is do you chain piece all the strips together then cut them all at once. Stack all the sets then sew them together. Somehow I missed that part and can’t find it only the part about the last 5. If I understand all the blocks come out the same then you turn to arrange pattern. I think I need to go back to part 1 and watch again
My strips are only 15” to 16” but I do have them in order and chain them to build the blocks. I do this a little slower because I don’t want i don’t want to mess up the color order. Then I make the tube and cut in 2 1/2” strips. I think that’s where you came in on video #2. Here’s a link to #1 and thanks for watching😊❤️🐥 th-cam.com/video/MTfKUnKIFGk/w-d-xo.html
That is a design board I made. Foam core board covered in batting with glued on binding for the edge. Search for design boards on TH-cam, you’ll find the directions to make one. Thank you for watching my channel 😊❣️
Hi,I have jellyroll strips, can I sew down the entire length of the strip, then fold, cut and pick? (another newbie who can’t visualize) AND thank you for the video!
Yes that is how you can use the jelly roll strips I would still arrange them in color groupings if you can. It’s the arranged color that gives the secondary design.
I thought more about my answer & your question. The blocks need to end up the same or on the same color ways to make it all work. Please, email me a picture when it’s done.
Bright and cheerful!!! I'm going to make one, of course! I know that you used 42 strips of each color,,,If I were to use the sam e 6 colors throughout, I think I'd be safe getting two yards of each color--what do ya think? Love the hst border on the other one!!! I'm now a subscriber, you go girl!!!!
Were you taking into account the width of each strip? 42 times 2.5” (the width of the strip) is 105”. That is just under 3 yards of fabric for each color. That will make a dramatic quilt depending on the values you get. I’d love to see it. Thanks for watching ❣️
@@sisterchicksquilting Instead of using jelly rolls, I'm planning to dip into my HUGE stash! I have mountains of Kaffe Fassett and other wonderful colorful fabrics that have been sitting around unused (Bit of illness--but healthy now!) Thanks for your encouragement and how-to video! I feel like I've made a new great friend! I'm not sure how to let you 'see it' when finished, but would be happy to! This quiltt's in my "top ten" list!
@@sisterchicksquilting Does the top really have 18 yards of fabric in it? That sounds like too much. I'm going to have to turn this over to my own engineer, he's really good at that cyphering thing. 🤣 6 colors 3 yards per color... 6x3=18 I'm going to make him figure in all the seam allowences too. The standard is ¼ inch, on all 4 sides of each square. It's after 2am and he's a regular person and goes to bed like regular people do. I'm up all night in my perfect world, so I'll have to present this to him in the morning which, in my world, is about noon. Maybe 1,we'll see.
Hello Di, I was wondering how you were going to make a scrappy version of an around the world. I love what you came up with. It’s very colorful your fabric prices are so pretty. ❤️❤️❤️ What size square was that? 2”? Very striking design and I love it. ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for sharing, Chris
I love your ideas, great quilts, very inspiring! But could you please turn your interlude music down a little? For me, it's a little jarring. Please keep up your wonderful videos!
That looks gorgeous ❤😊love it

Thank you and you for watching ❣️❣️
I love this, I really want to make this ❤
You can do it Julia. 😊❤️🐥
Looks great! Well done!
Thank you ❣️❣️
LOVE this!! I am attempting right now! Quilting is brand new for me and I've been watching video after video so I can learn. I'm trying to figure out if I can do this type as a "quilt as you go" since it will likely be quite an ordeal for me to do the quilting part once the blocks are together. I've almost got all my strips cut and then over the next couple of days, I'll be sewing them together, making the "tube" and so forth.
Thank you for your wonderful tutorial. Even a beginner like me has hope!
Thank you so much for watching my video😍❣️ May I be so bold as to give you some advice?
I wouldn’t try a quilt as you go method on that quilt. There are quilt patterns specifically made for quilting as you go., you might want to try one of those types first. In fact in a couple of weeks I’m going to make a table runner that is quilt as you go. You also might try straight line quilting on your domestic. There are a lot of tutorials out there about straight line quilting how to get it through your machine how to roll it, etc.
Since this is going to be one of your first quilts, I would pay to have someone machine quilt it.
No offense is intended, I’ve just had a lot of experience with first time and newer quilters.
Again, TFW😍❣️
@@sisterchicksquilting No offense taken at all! Thank you for your advice. I recently ordered a walking foot and it has a guide bar on it so I will watch some tutorials about using it. I'm determined to figure this stuff out. I've been at home during all this ...nonsense... so I've got nothing but time on my hands. I watched tutorials at the start of the pandemic to learn how to make masks and they were able to teach this old dog some new tricks so hopefully I can get some simple quilts done!
Thank you again - I'm looking forward to watching your videos and learning as I go. 🙂
That is how I started quilting on my domestic was with a walking foot and the guide bar. The difficult part for me was when I quilted (the design was cross hatching) a queen size quilt on my domestic! LOL The quilt was so big which made the project quite a difficult task.
You know I'm an old dog too and am glad you're learning new tricks!
@@sisterchicksquilting Well this should get interesting...I just picked out the seams of the first batch and I'm pretty sure I already messed up. I have never been good at "visualizing" and I think I ripped out the wrong row at least once! Should I ever manage to get this done, it will be a miracle! Ha!!!
@@Janorama56 Don't be so hard on your self. I picked out the wrong seams several times while I was making this quilt. Hmmm, maybe I should flim all the times I unpick, break/change a needle, sew the wrong pieces together or sew row after row with no bobbin thread.
One of my favorites sayings is, "If you only knew how many curse words are included in this homemade gift!"
I love it! How beautiful! Can't wait to see the end product!
So glad you like it😍. I can’t wait to quilt and bind it! TFW❣️
Love it! Can't wait to start one myself!!!
Go for it! Then post ito n instagram or FB and tag me, I'd love to see it.
TFW!
Sorted all my colors today! Yay! Will do!
Awesome, you’re on your way!
i noticed the rectangle too...and then you mentioned it 😂
You're not the first one who noticed it. That very reason is why design walls are so valuable. Thank you for watching!!
Don’t know how I missed this video. Was searching for the TAW pattern and saw Kates from the last homely house but was looking for more scrappy. Love your idea but especially how you were of making the tube and separating. My question is do you chain piece all the strips together then cut them all at once. Stack all the sets then sew them together. Somehow I missed that part and can’t find it only the part about the last 5. If I understand all the blocks come out the same then you turn to arrange pattern. I think I need to go back to part 1 and watch again
My strips are only 15” to 16” but I do have them in order and chain them to build the blocks. I do this a little slower because I don’t want i don’t want to mess up the color order. Then I make the tube and cut in 2 1/2” strips. I think that’s where you came in on video #2.
Here’s a link to #1 and thanks for watching😊❤️🐥

I think you might start the layout on the middle left side and layout up to the top middle. Then build out the left side first ! Maybe!
Thanks Carol I never thought of it that way. Thank you so much for watching my videos❣️
Вы умницка,красавица,молодец!
thank you for watching!
Thank you!!!
You're welcoem Joyce :) THank you for watching my channel !
I’ve been wanting to make this! Thank you for the tips! Love it!
You’re so welcome. Thanks for watching👍🏼
This was so worth the wait. Awesome job 💗 love it. You have inspired me to go through my stash.
Happy to hear that, I’m excited that you’re going to go through your stash 😍❣️
Thanks for sharing
You’re so welcome😍❣️TFW!
I enjoyed watching you make this quilt. On this (part 2) video you are looking very cold with your hoodie on.
That sounds like me, I get cold easily and am alwasy shivering.
Beautiful block pattern! I want to make one Where did you get that white board that you use to lay the strips on?
That is a design board I made. Foam core board covered in batting with glued on binding for the edge. Search for design boards on TH-cam, you’ll find the directions to make one.
Thank you for watching my channel 😊❣️
Hi,I have jellyroll strips, can I sew down the entire length of the strip, then fold, cut and pick? (another newbie who can’t visualize) AND thank you for the video!
Yes that is how you can use the jelly roll strips I would still arrange them in color groupings if you can. It’s the arranged color that gives the secondary design.
I thought more about my answer & your question. The blocks need to end up the same or on the same color ways to make it all work. Please, email me a picture when it’s done.
Thank you,I appreciate you! Truly.
Aloha from Hawaii!!!
You sewed all those little squares together?
Yikes!!!!
It’s strip quilting! Very easy and fast. Aloha 🌸🥥🌴🌺🍍🐥
Bright and cheerful!!! I'm going to make one, of course! I know that you used 42 strips of each color,,,If I were to use the sam e 6 colors throughout, I think I'd be safe getting two yards of each color--what do ya think? Love the hst border on the other one!!! I'm now a subscriber, you go girl!!!!
Were you taking into account the width of each strip? 42 times 2.5” (the width of the strip) is 105”. That is just under 3 yards of fabric for each color. That will make a dramatic quilt depending on the values you get. I’d love to see it.
Thanks for watching ❣️
@@sisterchicksquilting Instead of using jelly rolls, I'm planning to dip into my HUGE stash! I have mountains of Kaffe Fassett and other wonderful colorful fabrics that have been sitting around unused (Bit of illness--but healthy now!) Thanks for your encouragement and how-to video! I feel like I've made a new great friend! I'm not sure how to let you 'see it' when finished, but would be happy to! This quiltt's in my "top ten" list!
@@sisterchicksquilting Does the top really have 18 yards of fabric in it? That sounds like too much. I'm going to have to turn this over to my own engineer, he's really good at that cyphering thing. 🤣 6 colors 3 yards per color... 6x3=18 I'm going to make him figure in all the seam allowences too. The standard is ¼ inch, on all 4 sides of each square. It's after 2am and he's a regular person and goes to bed like regular people do. I'm up all night in my perfect world, so I'll have to present this to him in the morning which, in my world, is about noon. Maybe 1,we'll see.
I LOVE it!
Thanks 👍🏼
Mississippi girl
👋🏼👋🏼 hi and thanks for watching 😊
Hello Di, I was wondering how you were going to make a scrappy version of an around the world. I love what you came up with. It’s very colorful your fabric prices are so pretty. ❤️❤️❤️ What size square was that? 2”? Very striking design and I love it. ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for sharing, Chris
Thanks, glad you like it. I used 2.5” x 16” strips. After they are all sewn together I cut the loop in 2.5” loops.
TFW❣️
Thank you Di. ❤️🥰❤️
Thank you Di, PS I love your choice of fabrics ❤️❤️❤️

I love your ideas, great quilts, very inspiring! But could you please turn your interlude music down a little? For me, it's a little jarring. Please keep up your wonderful videos!
Yep 👍🏼 sometimes The Engineer gets into the tunes, lol. Thanks for watching😊❤️🐥

I hear you, why do we quilters make so many scraps ?🥴😳
Thanks for watching my videos❣️
