This is the next project for "my" group. We make and donate quilts to the Cancer Center in our town. Love that there is no waste, uses scraps and two for one is BONUS!!! Thank you.
Now THIS is Quilting Quickly with no waste - LOVE it! I also like that you remind us to set the seams and why it's important. At first I just thought you were setting aside the smaller triangle square/half-square triangles to save up with all our other scraps from other quilts to possibly make something out of them in the future, and thought what a waste of an expensive two layer cakes. But to see the smaller second quilt that can be made at the same time makes this a jackpot pattern. Nice going, ladies.
I love this quilt! I added a white border to the first quilt and then used the triangles to make another border around the whole quilt. I added one more white border and then will make a scrappy binding to finish it off!
I watch you and Jean all the time. I admire and applaud your skills. I'm only a beginner having moved to the country I finished my first quilt and got hooked and now of course have a fabric stash.... I never knew in a million years there was so much colour and variety in fabrics. I used to live in the city and did not sew for 15 years. I love all your videos. Monica from Australia
Thank you for the wonderful pattern..I just finished this quilt. I love it. It was easy and turned out beautifully .. I have not done the half square top yet , but I am going to sew it up soon..
Usually when I'm make a large number of blocks like this, I construct the blocks and then go back and square-up everything. Just in case I have variation in my sewing, I spot-check before trimming to insure I can trim them all to the same size.
Since I'm not sure what you are referring to I'll cover all the possibilities Background fabric - white solid - 3-3/4 yards Backing (the back side of the finished quilt) - 5-1/2 yards of quilters choice fabric:) Cotton batting (middle of the quilt sandwich)
Liz Turney I come to quilting from years of "garment construction". Force of habit - I'm so used to sewing with them there that when I'm not on camera I can remove them without stopping the needle. Also, the further the pins are from the seamline the more chance for shifting to occur.

Note to self:
80 x 10" square printed fabric,
160 x 5 1/2" squares white = 20 big blocks
Small triangles - make a baby or lap quilt.
BRILLANT !!
I think I can do this...thanks for sharing this pattern
lovely that we can come to u tube and watch our quilt shows
Me encantan sus proyectos.
Fico encantada com o trabalho de vocês, não falo nada em inglês 😂😂 por isso gostaria muito que se possível tivesse pelo menos as medidas em legendas.
Great ideas. Do you square up each large block as you make it?

Thank you. My accuracy is still needing a bit of help!! lol
Cute, and simple, once you know, like tech😁
What size are these two quilts?
Adorei
What 10" squares did you use for the Scrappy duo Quilt?
So what do u use for the back? Or in the middle??
Since I'm not sure what you are referring to I'll cover all the possibilities
Background fabric - white solid - 3-3/4 yards
Backing (the back side of the finished quilt) - 5-1/2 yards of quilters choice fabric:)
Cotton batting (middle of the quilt sandwich)
😍😍😍
Nice like it
You should put your pins to the side so you don't have to stop and pull them out as you sew.
