Have you ever needed a quilt on short notice.😬Well here is a quit that you can make in a day, start to finish. With all the pieces in this quilt it looks like it takes a lot longer.
I love that you aren;t obsessed with all the expensive and fancy quilting paraphernalia. To a newbie like me, it can sometimes feel like a massive consumption-fest! So I love your dollar store design wall and masking tape sewing ledge. It makes it much more accessible to newbies who can't buy an Oliso iron etc etc. Thanks again! Jay
I'm totally with you in this 'expensive quilting paraphernalia' crazyness. A quilter for 40 years, this saddens me as it's got nothing to do with the original idea behind it. If we stick to the basics and Karen's yt advice we'll be perfect 😉
I love your tutorial, love your smile, your articulation, your knowledge, your everything. Thank you, for caring enough to put yourself out there for those of us who NEED, absolutely NEED your encouragement. You did it so well. I am going to watch this again, and take down notes and use up those scraps that breed and reproduce so prolifically in the dark...! LOL!
I have to write you and tell you that I enjoy your videos immensely. I have totally uncluttered my sewing room and my stash I have met my goals thanks to you. God Bless you and yours and keep on posting !!
Got it and the other ones too. Making a binder with patterns I like in it. I had these on my computer before I think and I ran out of memory and it crashed so I am going to try to print what I want to save out and place in sleeves. Thank you Again I love all your videos.
I bought a pack of fat quarters today from an overstock store...now I know why they were there! I ended up having to cut my squares at 8" instead of 9, but it looks like I'll have some leftover strips to play with! Also, I've been watching your videos for over a year now, and while I've been sewing for a very long time, I've never made a quilt before! This will be my very first one!
I never thought sewing was something for me. My teacher in the past....i have to forgive her bad words over me. But í took my work to grandma and she restoured my work. Untill...the teacher find out my work was so/ to good. Oh oh. Punnishment. Now i find an old machine and during covid times i made so manny masks. Now it' s time for something 'bigger': and i found these video' s/lessons on youtube. I like the teacher!! She really encourage her online students. Thank you!! Bye from the Netherlands.
I am impressed with and appreciate the extra effort you take to make animated graphic video inserts in your teaching. It makes it easier to see what youare saying. Well done. Off to see my stash lurking.
We all learn differently. So I try to hit a number of styles. Hopefully between the graphic, pattern and video it's as easy to understand. Thanks for watching.
I want you to know that I really enjoy watching your videos. I am not a quilter (although I would like to be), so most of the time you might as well be speaking a foreign language. However, your enthusiasm and willingness to give out little tips is quite enjoyable. Thank you.
I have watched this over and over again. ( I am a newbie quilter) it has definitely been on my want to do list. So I have watched how to cut straight. A good ironing technique. Think I need one on how to stack now! 😬 Anyway they are cut and ( badly) stacked. So I am going to have a go. Thank you.
You are captivating.....Even if I didn't quilt, I'd watch your videos. Love your voice. I went quilt crazy about 3 years ago and made 14 in a few months. Then I had several things happen in my life that quilting had to go to a back burner. I'm starting up again as my life has come to a happy place. I love watching the videos because they remind me of things I'd forgotten.
You are by far my favorite TH-cam personality. Your videos are so clear and concise. Your diagrams are extremely helpful as well. You are clever, witty and, most importantly, authentic. I look forward to your next.
It's my first time making a quilt. I had already cut 6in squares but I think I'm still going to use this pattern. Thank you so much for you videos. Have a blessed day
I'll send a picture once it's done. I have actually been crocheting for about 15+ years and wanted to try my hand in sewing as well because all the pieces are just so beautiful. Thank you
I made this pattern in a different size in bright colors, a few years ago. Everybody in that see's it, wants it. My quilt is 78 x 60 and was made in 2 days start to finish...but I'm a slow sewist. Love that you posted this. It IS quick and easy. I think I'll pull some FQ's now.
This tutorial/pattern/video is SO WONDERFUL. You mention everything you need to know! I am not a beginner but this would be incredibly easy to follow along if I still were. Even as advanced of a sewer I am I still appreciate videos like this that are easy to follow along and have great visuals. Tons of advice. And a lovely lady. Love this.
Having accumulated a "stash" read "cave" full of fabric over 40 years of quilting - your video's inspire me to just go a grab some fabrics and make a quilt! This is a great quilt to make for charity simple but interesting. Thank you for sharing your joy of being creative !
I am 34 years old and have been sewing since I was a little girl. I’ve always wanted to do a real quilt but have been intimated. I think I will make this my first one!!! Thank you for providing such an excellent, easy to follow video!!
I have to tell you, I LOVE your voice. After having flown straight up out of my chair about 150 times when a YT video comes on with a perky, shrieking, much too vigorous HI!!! on the part of a YT quilting presenter, I appreciate you! Soft, calm and melodic Hello...oh, I can breathe. And I've devoured everyone of your videos...such good common sense and adult instruction and encouragement. Each new video you post brings a happy burst of excitement and I make the time to sit down and watch and enjoy. LOVE you and your channel.
Lol. I dont have fat quarters but I do have alot of scraps, period. I'm ready to start on one. I just finished one of my scrappy quilt, that I had started when I was pregnant. Call me a procrastinator when it comes to a project with no idea. Lol. Great video 💙🐝💙
I will try that to use up the pieces my grandmother left in two boxes which I have and never was used after she got sick and could not finish her work. That will be my first quilt and once it is together I will feel like I accomplished something and will have the ability to make one of material I purchased myself, but I may have material left over to do another one from her squares cut out.
There's a poem that starts, "If I should die and leave you for a while," by Mary Lee Hall which talks about finishing things that your loved one has left behind, unfinished. If your grandmother is still alive, well, even better! You can show her what you've done with her fabrics! Bless you.
Love you stach buster small quilts, I have a lot of 10 inch and charms I want to get them used up and donat them to charity so will be looking for more of your ideas. So glad I found your videos keep keep them coming
Thank you for this. I just got back from a 9 State, 4 Province road trip and need to make some room for all the beautiful fabrics I purchased. I also need two twin sized quilts later in the summer. I do not know anything about the people I am making them for except their gender and they are new Canadians. I think this would be a good quilt pattern for make for them. I really enjoy your videos. I appreciate the time and effort you put into making each one.
I’m making my first ever quilt because I watched this video! I am having so much fun!! Thank you so much for your videos! I know my first one wouldn’t have been done in just one day- BUT it’s not taking nearly as long as I thought it would!
6:06 That’s a good tip! I could see myself rearranging them for days, and then I’m sure my husband would put his thoughts in (as he tends to do) and that’d tack on at least one more day! Lol
I am drifting over from paper projects to quilting so I am new to all this. I have watched about 8 of your videos and it has helped me so much . First time I have taken the time to get a good "drivers ed program" before I jump into a new type of project. Thank you for making these videos so helpful and fun to watch !!!!
You are one of the best video quilt instructors I've watched. I have a couple of favorites and you are definitely at the top. I like your personality and sense of humor.. The graphics are a great help! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with all of us newbies.
Karen, thank you for this pattern and instructions. I'm a new quilter, (about a year in) and YES, i made this top in an afternoon! Even added a border. I made only 24 blocks, though. I purchased more fabric today, in order to make another this weekend. We have a baptism in three weeks, for two girls. Need those quilts! 😁 Thank you!
I like this! Quick, fun, easy. I created a similar design, but on the 2nd cut I rotate the pile... move a few to bottom of stack, and sew back together - NO seams to match so it sews up even faster. GMTA. Lol. Thanks for another fun vid. You’re a natural at this, Karen!
+Cyn Forest there are a number of easy variations...yours of switching the piles and you can also cut wonky. But I felt this was the fastest...for me at least as I get lost in the randomizing. Thanks for sharing.
I love these stash buster quilt projects. Sometimes I just want to sew without any stress. Okay. I always want to sew without any stress. These patterns fit the bill, and you, my dear, are a great instructor!
I absolutely love everything about this quilt! For now I am working with precuts, the thought of cutting pieces any larger than a five inch square is a skill I'm building up. Knowing there are quilts designed to use fat quarters makes me excited to work towards one. :)
Karen, love this idea! Laying out the blocks IS a time-chew for me, too. I lay them out the way i think i like them, then walk away and do whatever. An hour later, i allow myself one more switch-around, then commit to sewing. This works for me, but i also like the time limit method you suggested. Thank you!
Tomorrow comes my rotary cutter, cutting mat and ruler and I'm going to use some old duvet covers to practice with. And I think this is going to be my first ever quilt! I hope my stuff is getting here nice and early so I can start! I almost can't wait!!
Thank you for sharing this video and pattern, Karen. It was perfect for some Fat Quarters that I've been wanting to piece for awhile. I also find that tape makes the best sewing ledge, thanks for the reminder! I'm so grateful for your content, thank you
I was in Toronto last month was hoping to have coffee with you. Just not enough time. Mum and I took the Via Rail across Canada. Interesting adventure with an elderly parent to say the least.
Love this!! Please.. more stash busters! This was great and simple. I Always feel bad making such a simple quilt. Most of my quilts are very designed by me. But the actual quilting is my evil nemesis! I hate quilting.. but I will never pay over $200 to have something done I can do myself! I had the worst experience with a "professional" quilter. Never again no matter how much I hate doing it. This looks so simple! Love it!!
this is a great quilt to get my mojo going , I just moved and my sewing room " spare bed room" is the last to get done my saturday is getting this done ! thanks for your fun and informative videos you are a Gem
Just finished one of these made out of 108 blocks with about 20 different prints😃! Currently making another one with fewer prints. Lovely project for when you need a little mindlessness.
I love your stash buster quilt videos! I keep rewatching all of them. I have already made one of your quilt patterns and have started two more. I am looking forward to more of your stash buster videos.
I made two of these quilts in a weekend. I enjoyed making them and loved that I used up fat quarters that I had in my stash for years that I didn't know how to use up. Watch all of your helpful Videos! Thank you!
Hi - you said you made this quilt - I'm to the point of stacking the 9" squares alternating the light and dark. I am just not sure if all 4 piles should be done exactly the same OR do you do those materials in different orders - just wondering for when I go to finish it if by mixing them up it will cause a problem OR if I should have all 4 stacks exactly the same -help!
Thanks for admitting that that last process could take a couple of days ! I overthink also and using a timer is a great idea!! Very nice quilt ...Thank You and Happy Quilting ..
I try n make two pillow cases for two in quilt lap gets one n bigger 4 pillow cases. Using scraps for trim. Using for back is great idea too. If using for charity I put quilt n pillowcase n tie with bow. For quilt guild I make pillow cases n they Match up with charity quilts. I buy soft muslin or buy white or ivory flat king size sheets from Walmart or dollar tree or if donated to me. Sometimes there or blue or prints available. I love to have pillowcases for quilts. They will be washed and pillow fights n worn out faster. The scraps in them can be used to repair quilt n make new pillow case. Love your channel. I just wish I moved faster
In a coincidence, I started makng this quilt yesterday when I found it on your website. The video, which I found today, clarifies some questions I had while cutting and arranging and sewing the first three stacks. On each stack, after sewing the first set of seams and cutting again, I may have deviated a arranging the blocks differently, so the seams dont match up. I’m a lifelong sewer and a new quilter and am a bit independent. I also habe macular degeneration, which has fueled my desire to find ways to quilt that are satisfying but doable for me. Cab’t wait to lay this one outand finish it. Thanks for the video, even if a little late for my first effort.
To say, I intentionally cut so the seams don’t match up because I don’t see well enough anymore to match them. Anyhow. Quilt came out awesome, and I’m making another.
Hello. I came up with a great stash buster. It's similar to the jelly roll race meets string quilt. Sew like size (width) of scrape fabrics together in a long strip. I made 3", 2 1/2", 2", 1"1/2" and 1" very long strips. Then sewed those together with the 3" in the middle then thinner till I had a 12" wide strip. In future I won't use the 1" or 3". Folded the 12" in half then used a triangle ruler to cut out blocks.
I watched this previously. Today I was trying to organize my fabric stash, 8 FQs jumped out and me and begged me to use them! What takes you one day will take me a couple of weeks but at least I will have am autumn quilt waiting to be used!
So happy I found you! I decided to start quilting again after 30 years. For the last 4 years I have been doing Photography, but these days ya gotta stay inside, so hard to do Photography. Your videos are excellent for people like me. My first project is a table runner or two lol. Soon I hope to do a bigger quilt. Thank you for being an excellent teacher. I also found you on Instagram! You have a Blessed day.
Just rolling thru videos to pass some time. This was a fabulous video. I have been going thru my old stash and wanting to get rid of old stuff I don't know why I bought and this is perfect. Sorry I am a little late to the party 🥳
Love this. I am in a bee group that makes quilts for children in tue hospital and we have been looking for a fat quarter friendly quick quilt. This is perfect. Thanks!
This video is so well done I subscribed! I often get confused with sewing directions the graphics and explinations in this video were perfect for me. I loved it. Please do more stash buster or "fast " simple ideas that dont look to simple when finished as a mom of younger kids it makes me excited about sewing again.
Have you ever needed a quilt on short notice.😬Well here is a quit that you can make in a day, start to finish. With all the pieces in this quilt it looks like it takes a lot longer.
So where is the pattern?

I'm new to sewing and I have no idea what it means to arrange by value

I have watched this over and over again. ( I am a newbie quilter) it has definitely been on my want to do list. So I have watched how to cut straight. A good ironing technique. Think I need one on how to stack now! 😬 Anyway they are cut and ( badly) stacked. So I am going to have a go. Thank you.

Awesome tutorial!! Thanks for the stash buster!!
Hi Cindy
It's my first time making a quilt. I had already cut 6in squares but I think I'm still going to use this pattern. Thank you so much for you videos. Have a blessed day
If this is your first quilt, just keep going with what you have. There is so much to learn on your very first quilt. This pattern will always be there
Thank you
I'll send a picture once it's done. I have actually been crocheting for about 15+ years and wanted to try my hand in sewing as well because all the pieces are just so beautiful. Thank you

Love it! Thank you!
Hi Judy
I've never quilted in my life.... Something I wish ive learned to do years ago.
I can listen to this lady forever!!!:)
Just go for it! I'm a 72 year old beginner.
I will try that to use up the pieces my grandmother left in two boxes which I have and never was used after she got sick and could not finish her work. That will be my first quilt and once it is together I will feel like I accomplished something and will have the ability to make one of material I purchased myself, but I may have material left over to do another one from her squares cut out.
That's a really beautiful idea.

I made two of these quilts in a weekend. I enjoyed making them and loved that I used up fat quarters that I had in my stash for years that I didn't know how to use up. Watch all of your helpful Videos! Thank you!
👏👏👏
Hi - you said you made this quilt - I'm to the point of stacking the 9" squares alternating the light and dark. I am just not sure if all 4 piles should be done exactly the same OR do you do those materials in different orders - just wondering for when I go to finish it if by mixing them up it will cause a problem OR if I should have all 4 stacks exactly the same -help!
Yesmore quilt patterns please--with your wonderful instruction! I would love to see you do some vintage quilt blocks. You're a great teacher!
Great video
Hi Cindy
Thanks for admitting that that last process could take a couple of days ! I overthink also and using a timer is a great idea!! Very nice quilt ...Thank You and Happy Quilting ..
I try n make two pillow cases for two in quilt lap gets one n bigger 4 pillow cases. Using scraps for trim. Using for back is great idea too. If using for charity I put quilt n pillowcase n tie with bow. For quilt guild I make pillow cases n they Match up with charity quilts. I buy soft muslin or buy white or ivory flat king size sheets from Walmart or dollar tree or if donated to me. Sometimes there or blue or prints available. I love to have pillowcases for quilts. They will be washed and pillow fights n worn out faster. The scraps in them can be used to repair quilt n make new pillow case. Love your channel. I just wish I moved faster
Thank you for the tutorial AND for the two different sizes with the fabric equivelants. It's always good to have options!
In a coincidence, I started makng this quilt yesterday when I found it on your website. The video, which I found today, clarifies some questions I had while cutting and arranging and sewing the first three stacks. On each stack, after sewing the first set of seams and cutting again, I may have deviated a arranging the blocks differently, so the seams dont match up. I’m a lifelong sewer and a new quilter and am a bit independent. I also habe macular degeneration, which has fueled my desire to find ways to quilt that are satisfying but doable for me. Cab’t wait to lay this one outand finish it. Thanks for the video, even if a little late for my first effort.
To say, I intentionally cut so the seams don’t match up because I don’t see well enough anymore to match them. Anyhow. Quilt came out awesome, and I’m making another.
Just what I needed. I have a lot of fabric I need to use. Thanks for the quick and easy quilt tutorial.
Hello. I came up with a great stash buster. It's similar to the jelly roll race meets string quilt. Sew like size (width) of scrape fabrics together in a long strip. I made 3", 2 1/2", 2", 1"1/2" and 1" very long strips. Then sewed those together with the 3" in the middle then thinner till I had a 12" wide strip. In future I won't use the 1" or 3". Folded the 12" in half then used a triangle ruler to cut out blocks.
Love your videos Karen. Your one of my favorites on TH-cam. Thank you for all you share💕💕
I watched this previously. Today I was trying to organize my fabric stash, 8 FQs jumped out and me and begged me to use them! What takes you one day will take me a couple of weeks but at least I will have am autumn quilt waiting to be used!
One step at a time
This is my kind of quilt! Love simple patterns with such flexibility. Thank you.
So happy I found you! I decided to start quilting again after 30 years. For the last 4 years I have been doing Photography, but these days ya gotta stay inside, so hard to do Photography. Your videos are excellent for people like me. My first project is a table runner or two lol. Soon I hope to do a bigger quilt. Thank you for being an excellent teacher. I also found you on Instagram! You have a Blessed day.
Wonderful!
I am loving the stash buster easy quilt tutorials. More, please.
Just rolling thru videos to pass some time. This was a fabulous video. I have been going thru my old stash and wanting to get rid of old stuff I don't know why I bought and this is perfect.
Sorry I am a little late to the party 🥳
This looks so fun! I haven't quilted in years and wanted to try a card trick quilt. I think this is a much better starting point!
I have spent days laying out my blocks!!! Random is not easy for me.😁 The quilt turned out great.
Awesome. Thank you.
Hi Robin
Loved how you explained choosing border fabric colour.

Love this. I am in a bee group that makes quilts for children in tue hospital and we have been looking for a fat quarter friendly quick quilt. This is perfect. Thanks!
+liz addison-duenas I use this for my charity Quilts two. I make smaller ones though. So with this 32 blocks I make two 4x 4 Quilts with a border
This video is so well done I subscribed! I often get confused with sewing directions the graphics and explinations in this video were perfect for me. I loved it. Please do more stash buster or "fast " simple ideas that dont look to simple when finished as a mom of younger kids it makes me excited about sewing again.
