- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 พ.ค. 2024
- We’re bringing you a free pattern and video series called Jelly Snowflake Mystery Quilt to celebrate Christmas in July. It’s a good time to start something for the holidays. And… it’s a MYSTERY!
Each week in July we will release one video tutorial with a FREE pattern with a little help from our quilty friends. If you’re new to quilting, the detailed videos will show you how to cut, stitch and sew every step of the way! We won’t reveal the look of the quilt beforehand. That’s a secret! If you participated in our Merry Mini Mystery Quilt last year you know how fun it can be. We've also added a timer - Kimberly’s sewing in real-time so you can see how long it takes her to make 1 block!
Be sure to share your projects using #JellySnowflakeQAL and tag us (@fatquartershop) to join in the fun!

Oh boy! Here we go. These videos are going to be great as a reference. I always struggle with cutting my fabric efficiently so I love that you showed a clear plan when cutting the fabric for this block. Thanks FQS!
I like your tip to cut the background fabric into smaller chunks to starch! And your visual about shrinkage using the strips. Thank you!
Who knew it would be so fun to watch someone sew a block beginning to end...no cutaways...💗
My kingdom for that presser foot! lol And with the fabric being starched, it sews up so nicely.
This looks fun! I’m gonna jump in as soon as I find a Christmas jelly roll that I like! I love that you showed the entire process from start to finish, including the sewing! Makes it much easier to follow along! ❤️
❤️❤️❤️ can’t wait to make my own blocks tonight after work!! Thank you so much Kimberly !!
Love this block. Kimberly your company is the best. I love doing business with you. Thank you for all the free videos and directions.
Love that you are using the cute little rolling pin that came in our monthly FQ box!
Thank you Kimberly. I look forward to next Thursday❤️❤️❤️
Hi Kimberly! I just wanted to say thank you for this video! It’s amazing!! 💗💗💗 I was able to sew up perfectly sized blocks. I’m using leftover Christmas fabric from years ago. I can’t wait for next Thursday. Thank you again.
Oh how exciting, a Christmas sew along! Thank you. 🐢
This will be a great weekend project! I'm so excited!
Thank you FQS, for always having such great projects!
Yeah! My first FQS sew along!, I am sew excited. Thank you Kimberly and FQS 👏❤️🎄🥰
Thankyou for the pattern. Just got to get the jelly roll and the rest of the fabric. Xxx
O’Boy like I need another project! I missed out on last years sew here I go. Great video and am excited to cut and sew! Be Well Everyone
Thank you for explaining that a reason to square up each block as you sew is to not have those threads show through in the finished quilt. That makes sense to me and makes me want to do the same!
I can't wait to get started. Great tutorial. Thanks Kimberly.
So excited! Thanks for the little tips and reminders along the way. 💖
Great camera work while Kimberly is sewing. Spot on!! 👍
This little needle book is sew cute!❤️🧵✂️
Thank you, Kimberly for the tips and tricks! I ended up cutting my jelly roll strips so they were 2-1/2 inches wide like you did! I'm hoping to get these 4 blocks done by Thursday. We have two new puppies in our home so they have kept us hopping. Roxy from Hudson, WI
My order is suppose to be here on Friday and I can't wait to get started.
I'm so very excited to join the Jelly Snow Flake Mystery Quilt group! My fabric should arrive today, and I am just so excited!!!
Fabulous video. Great reminder of how to precision cut and see.
I didn't have Christmas Jelly Roll that would work and was about to order something. I have a huge stash of yardage and decided to use what I had on hand. (I will use my cc for supplies on a different quilt-along) I am So excited to see what Stonehenge Blues with White background will look on this Mystery pattern. Thanks for giving us this great Christmas Gift
Oh, so pretty!!! And so Exciting!!! Thank You So Much!!!
I have all my fabric!! I've been waiting for it to begin. It's finally here! Yay!
Thank you so much for the beautiful free patterns
A Christmas in July sew along, yippee! I cannot wait to see how this turns out. Thanks FQS.
Love it but I do not have a Christmas jelly roll but I am going to use the Jelly Roll I have on hand! I have think it is Little Snippets - now I need 2.5 yards background.
Awesome job, Kimberly as usual! Love the block and your tutorial is always spot on! I did the one last year too and it was so much fun. Can't wait to start this one hopefully today!
Your level of precision is AMAZING! Such a cute block.
Great tip about cutting the jelly roll strips to 2.5 inches. I always assumed they measured 2.5 all the time! 👍🏽❤
There would hardly be any sense in paying the cost of precuts if you can't trust the company to accurately cut the fabric! Buy elsewhere.
Your videos are extremely well done and easy to follow. Love the timer at the top! Thank you for all you do.
I can't wait to get started this evening!
Thank you. You make it look so easy and perfect.
Cute block Kimberly and am excited to start this block....thanks
I love how you cut out your fabric. I also love to watch you sew. You do such a great job that it makes it look so easy. I’ve never quilted a quilt but have quilted a zippered bag. The fabric you chose is adorable. I think I will try and make a quilt this winter when all my outside gardens are finished for the year. Thank you for sharing how you do your fabric & how you cut and sew it.
🇺🇸Happy 4th of July! 🇺🇸
PS - I need to order that roller presser. It looks amazing.
still waiting on my fabric to arrive from the FQS. Its been shipped can't wait to get started!!
Can’t wait to get home tonight and make this block x 4.
Like I need another project! Running out to get my fabric today. This can't come at a better time, something to look forward to!
I have so many projects started. Over a dozen quilts ready to be quilted, 25 in progress, and 10 or more ready to start! That is the sign of a twisted mind!
Brandi Covey LoL! Not twisted, just very creative! 🧵 ✂️ 🧵
Love the fabric!
I'm late gotta go startch ... thank u for these awesome sew alongs

Thank you! Love this from 🇬🇧
Adorable! Can't wait to start!
Wonderful tutorial as always Kimberly 🤗❤️
Happy Christmas in July! Thanks Kimberly and FQS team for this exciting and FREE sew along. You spoil your customers so much and I love it! Happy 4th of July too 💥 💥💥
So excited to get started !
Thanks for sharing, love them!
Kimberly, great video. I'm going to join in on the fun🤶🎅🌲
Excellent
Kimberly 😊
Pretty and festive.
I love this! The Deer Christmas Collection is super cute!
So excited to get started🥰
Great block and instructions!
Me encantó. I loved your all work, is very beautiful☺
waiting on my Jelly roll to come in can t wait
Yay! It’s time to start!!!
Trying to patiently wait for the Chill fabric to come in before making this.....it isn't working well, but we all know how that goes :) Wonderful tutorial and I can't wait to start making it (hurry Moda!)
This looks fun!!
Okayyyy, I am going to go completely out of the lines on this one. I am using Christmas leftovers from years past and using a black background 😬. Fingers crossed. My daughter is sewing along w us and using up more of the Christmas leftovers , she’s using a muslin background. Soooo interesting this will be.
Great idea. I have Christmas jelly roll strips left over. I may do the same.
What is the finished size of the quilt?
How fun ❄🎄 ☃
Thank you!
How fun!!
Kimberley I ❤️❤️ this block and your blouse is gorgeous ❤️❤️
Very cute
Thank you ☺️
Looks like a fun block to sew! But I still need to choose fabric...oh no!
Beautiful quilt, I was wondering if you made the smaller design boards you used in this video? or maybe have a tutorial for making one, I had to pack majority of my crafting supplies & sewing notions after hurricane Ian and I want to make a few things to have in a camper, Thanks Ginny
So excited! Will it have a Christmas theme or can I use any jelly roll I already have?
This is great!! You give such amazing tips Kimberly! What is the pins you recommended please?
Hello Nancie! Kimberly recommended the Clover 100 Count Patchwork Glasshead Pins Size 23 - www.fatquartershop.com/clover-patchwork-pins-clover-232
Lovely block, going to start on the weekend. I like your design board, great idea. Did you do a tutorial on making them? Thank you 😊
Hello Sandy! Here is the tutorial on how to make a design board: th-cam.com/video/1nSZtoionpA/w-d-xo.html
Fat Quarter Shop ...Thank you so much 😊
I didn’t have wood so I used a strong cardboard. Just have to be careful not to bend. Lol
@@alaskaway9076 I used thick posterboard. Works well too!
Time to raid my stash!
Me too. Not using Christmas fabrics either
What sewing machine is Kimberly using? OMG! I NEED that foot! No wonder can she sew so fast!! Please and thank you re: the machine. My Fabric is ironed and ready to be cut and sewn.
I have a question. I layered my four strips and cut the A’s and B’s. For the C squares, the pattern says to cut three, which would give me twelve squares. Don’t I need 16 squares? If I am making four- patch blocks, I would need four colored squares and four white squares. Four colored squares times four strips should be 16 squares, not 12. Am I not thinking correctly?
Stripology ruler would make cutting so fast!
I have used the same fabric for all 4. Will that work? 🤔🤞 love this....thank you 😻
Hello Vicky! Are you asking if it is okay that you used the same fabric for your four blocks?
Fat Quarter Shop yep....Yes...I see you used different reds....I used the same reds. They look amazing. This is so exciting! Thank you for all your hard work and wonderful vids and patterns 😻😻😻
Can you make strips from fat quarters- will the pieces be long enough?
What kind of sewing machine are you using. Great job! I love watching her videos. Happy sewing🌼🌼🌼
Hello Beachbaby! Kimberly used the Juki TL-2010Q sewing machine: amzn.to/2onygue
Hi Kimberly, would I be able to use a white jelly roll as the background fabric for the whole quilt?
She showed that on last weeks? live stream
Hello Linda! You would be able to use a white jelly roll as the background fabric for the whole quilt.
Thank you Kimberly!
I don’t think you can use a jelly roll for the whole background. Block 2 has a center square that’s larger than 2&1/2”?
Hi Kimberly. I love all your videos. Helping me learn so much. I'm a beginner quilter and have a question. How would I go about increasing the finished size on this quilt?
Hello Terri! Edyta Sitar of Laundry Basket Quilts has instructions listed on her blog for how to increase your quilt size. www.laundrybasketquilts.com/blog/quilting-along-jelly-snowflake/
I’m surprised to see her using the 1/4” compensating foot?? Mine doesn’t work well unless I’m piecing a lot of thicknesses, I.e., fabric & foam interfacing, etc. I’ll have to give it another try...
Hello FQS..What and where did Kimberly get her 1/4 in foot.? It really sew a great even 1/4 " seam!! Wowza 🙋♀️
Hello Michigan Gal! Kimberly is using the Juki ¼” Edge Guide Compensating Foot For TL Series Machines -

@@FatQuarterShopTX Thanks, I ordered it....😊
❤️❤️❤️
What do you use to make your design board? I love this idea.
Hello Beachbaby! Here is a tutorial on how to make your design board: th-cam.com/video/1nSZtoionpA/w-d-xo.html
Kimberly, please tell me the name of the presser foot you are using. It looks like it prevents the fabric from passing under the right hand side, to get a perfect 1/4” seam. Also, is it only available fir the Juki?
Love your awesome videos!
Hello C! Kimberly is using a Compensating 1/4" foot for Juki TL Series: amzn.to/1jywCOE
What do you guys think about making these blocks scrappy? Would it work? I am using the Flutter and Shine by Riley Blake Jelly Roll.
Hello Kayla! That sounds like a great idea. As Kimberly would say, "You do you"
Great explanations. Doing Wayside & others leftovers. Dark Grey ,champagne, silver ,gold ,copper , white. Dark center to lights
Which blocks would work for that ? Or is it equally b
All we can really recommend is just make sure your background contrasts with any strips you're using. The strips, when completed, will form a cohesive design against the background.
Why such a minuscule stitch length? Also, what kind of machine is that? I love the seam guide!
Hello! Kimberly prefers to use a 1.75 stitch length because it provides more strength which in the end helps her quilts last longer. Kimberly uses the Juki TL-2010Q sewing machine: amzn.to/2onygue
Hi Quick question...rather than a jelly roll of different fabrics, I'd like to do a metallic white fabric with a light blue background. Since this is a mystery quilt, I don't know if that will work. Do you think it will? Thanks so much
Thank you this is fantastic. Please can you tell me which quarter inch foot you use?
Hello Pam! Here is the foot that Kimberly used: Compensating 1/4" foot for Juki TL Series" www.sewvacdirect.com/juki-edge-guide-compensating-foot-for-tl-series-machines/
Here is a link to the foot Kimberly typically uses Universal ¼” foot with guide on the Juki TL2010: amzn.to/1jywCOE
Where did you get your new foot for your Juki TL2010q machine?
Hello G Wenna! Kimberly is using the Juki ¼” Edge Guide Compensating Foot For TL Series Machines -
www.sewvacdirect.com/juki-edge-guide-compensating-foot-for-tl-series-machines/
So I have one jelly roll but it has only five colors. Will that look okay for this quilt?
Thank you so much for the tutorial. Could you please tell me what foot is on her machine, and is she sewing on her Juki ? 🤗
Hello Jan! Kimberly is using the Compensating 1/4" foot for Juki TL Series" www.sewvacdirect.com/juki-edge-guide-compensating-foot-for-tl-series-machines/ and is sewing on her Juki TL-2010Q
Fat Quarter Shop Thank you so much for your help.😍
♥️
for the background can we use a jelly roll as well? Just wondering if in the other blocks we will be using widths wider than 2.5".
Hello Mary! Yes, some of the background widths are wider than 2.5", but you can piece together JR strips to make them if you need.
Where can you get pattern for this quilt now
Hello Mary! You can get the pattern here: blog.fatquartershop.com/jelly-snowflake-mystery-quilt/
What machine are you sewing on? Also that is an awesome presser foot, may I ask what it is?
