Are you put off making a quilt because of the binding? - well in this quilt we don't use binding. And this quilt is all made with a sewing machine so there is no hand sewing.
Not up to free motion quilting just yet? - no worries, we don't do that either.
This is a very simple beginners quilt that can be made by anyone who can sew a straight line. And if you can't, well you'll be an expert by the time you finish, because this quilt is all straight line sewing.
You will be so amazed at how quick and easy this is, that you will soon be making them for gifts. It's a super simple quilting pattern.
Quilting for beginners has never been so easy!
To make this quilt we purchased:
- 2 metres (approx 2 yards) for the backing fabric (we had some left over after cutting to size)
- 2 metres (approx 2 yards) of batting (we had some left over after cutting to size)
- 1/4 metre (approx 1/4 yard) of each of 8 different types of fabrics (we didn't end up using it all)
The completed size of the quilt is 37" by 50".

YOU ARE A GODSEND! I am trying to finish a quilt for my sons first birthday and it is my first quilt ever. I didn't want a binding and I was trying to figure out how to do exactly what you did in this tutorial. Thank you so very much. I cannot even begin to properly express how grateful I am for this. Thank you thank you thank you.
Thank you for your awesome comment Katie, I am so happy you like this method. It certainly makes finishing a quilt really quick and easy. :)
wooow its very helpful for me as a beginner thanks alot from kuwait 🇰🇼 to you
How lovely to hear from you Basma, all the way from Kuwait. This is a nice easy quilt to start with. Have fun :)
This may be the easiest quilt ever, and you have chosen such a beautiful collection of colors and patterns that it really looks great! Love how you show each step so clearly to make sure all the layers are lined up and stay flat. I see that you used big pins all over the quilt to hold the layers together
Thank you for your lovely comment Patty. It's always a pleasure to get such nice feedback 🙂
I'm a beginner and I want to thank you for doing a great easy tutorial for this beautiful quilt.
+Heather Sipe Thank you so much for your lovely comment Heather. This is the ideal quilt for someone starting out. :)
Hello
Wonderful! Beginning quilting doesn't seem so intimidating anymore. Thank you💜
This is a nice, easy one to start with.
My 10 year old grandson was asking about learning to sew and make quilts. This is a perfect project. Lots of straight lines to sew and stitch in the ditch quilting means more straight lines. We should be able to finish it with a 2 night sleep-over.
Can't wait to get him started.
Thanks for the perfect project.
It's so wonderful to see young lads getting involved with quilting. This one will certainly give him plenty of practice with sewing 1/4" seams and straight lines. Chris, our longarm quilter's grandson also loves making quilts and other crafty projects, it's great to see. :)
Thank goodness for ladies like you who show beginners how to start quilting. This project seems very doable for People who are nervous beginners. I was despairing of ever starting any projects, but now I’m excited!! Thanks so much! xx

I want to reach through this screen and hug you! I have already started working my first quilt, as a beginner sewer. I watched a different video before I found yours. I have spent a lot of time cutting these annoying little squares and sewing them together in long strips! And now I find yours! I'm ditching that other pattern and trying this one first! I have Fibromyalgia, (fibro brain) and something that's simple for others is exhausting for me. Thank you for making this simple, quick, and easy to understand and follow along! THANK YOU!
I am so happy we have been able to help you. Hopefully you will find this method less exhausting. :)
I have fibro too. So I love this. My first quilt I did Cathedral Window. It took forever and was exhausting. Now I am not so stressed about making another quilt.
Hello my Dear. I have Fibromyalgia also and yes, this tutorial is perfect for us. I will like to see more from this kind lady teacher.
@@mikkimikki5376 me too

How to sew the wrong sides together on a quilt
I am a beginner quilter and now I understand the process! Thank you!
Excellent Mizuno. Happy we were able to help. We also have the written instructions on the website www.alandacraft.com/2015/06/08/quilting-for-beginners-the-easiest-quilt-ever/
Thank you so much for this great tutorial! I have been intimated by quilting, but think I may try this---you have made it so clear on what I should do. Thanks!
You will be very happy with how quickly this quilt goes together Sandra. It really is so easy to do. :)
Hello Sandra
I have never quilted before, and this video has encouraged me to start..what a wonderfully explained video...thanks to Alana craft.
That's excellent Sonia. We love to see new quilters join our ranks. Just a word of warning - it's very addictive. :) This is a nice easy one to start with, have fun and the written instructions are on the website as well. here is the link www.alandacraft.com/2015/06/08/quilting-for-beginners-the-easiest-quilt-ever/
Have not started quilting but this has really encouraged me that I can make a quilt. Great tutorial. Blessings
+Tara Hopkins Welcome to the world of quilting. It is addictive. This quilt is super easy Tara, and a great quilt to start with.
The stripes are great. They prevent very busy fabrics from coming together. Not just for beginners. I have a longarm ,quilting for 30 years. I love to make these quickie babies.
TY for sharing this. I make a lot of quilts for charity and I hand sew the binding and this will be so much faster and still be a beautiful quilt.
It certainly does save time making a quilt this way Alicia, and they still look lovely when they are finished. Your charity will be very happy with these quilts
Hello, how are you doing my friend
This is a GREAT Technique! "Quick and Easy" with fewer steps than most quilts, especially w/o any borders and binding. I really like the SIMPLISTIC LOOK of this quilt and will be using this technique for the throws that I want to make for myself and family members. I could even use blocks if I wanted to. THANK YOU for showing this fantastic tutorial!
Thank you for your great comment. I think I can see what your family will be getting for xmas.:). These really are just the easiest quilts ever to make.
Thank you! Excellent tutorial. You accomplished your mission - this video has encouraged me to tackle making this simple quilt.
lol, that is awesome Lana. This is certainly a nice easy one to make.
Lana Doke qIt was very nice to watch.. Thank you
ill agree with Eileen, this is straight to the point teaching the basics to the beginners, very nicely done
Thank you :)
Thank you Wanda, I appreciate the simplicity of this quilt. I'm just starting and after watching this I'm once again excited to get started.
+Joni Minica Excellent Joni. It really is just so easy to make.
Hello, how are you doing my friend?
I especially liked that you pulled the seam slightly apart in order to.sew that seam,gave it a crisp finished look. The back was flawless also, beautiful ...thank you!
Thank you Paula.
Thanks for the tutorial. I want to make a quilt for my great-aunt, but I had no idea where to begin. This video has been a good inspiration and a great help to me. I probably won't be done with the quilt in an afternoon, though, since I don't have a sewing machine.
Yes it will certainly take a bit longer if you are doing it by hand. This is a nice easy quilt to start with though.

I have started my quilt now - straight lines are not my problem as I found. I had to unpick a couple of strips as the material did not 'match' the rest of them. Therefore I took the two strips out before I got any further. Another thing I learnt is to watch for 'upside down' patterns - getting them all the same way up! So I am learning. Not finished the project yet as time has not been on my side, but enjoying the quilting journey so far. Thank you for being my inspiration.
Thank you for your lovely comment Beverly. I'm so happy to hear you are enjoying the experience . Quilting is such fun, and yes, it can also be frustrating at times. I find that s good quality quick unpick (seam ripper) is a must to have on hand. :)
I look for forward to trying this one. Thanks so much for posting such an easy & helpful tutorial.
Trenia Higdon Thank you Trenia. You really will find this is so quick and easy to make and theses quilts look great when they are finished. I think that one of the things I like most is - no binding.
I just hot to the point of putting the front back & padding liner together when I remembered your video so looked it up & watched again before finishing. Thank you so much! Your quilt is a pretty & easily assembled one I'll definitely make again! 🙋♀️💜
Exellent Marlene 😊. This quilt is so quick and easy to make.
Thank you so very much,this was easy to follow and my grandchildren will enjoy these quilts so much.Al the best.

Hello, how are you doing?
I have never done any quilting but have a cross stitch hanging that I want to quilt. I think I know how to begin that process now. Thank you!
I was thinking that you may want to add sashing and borders to showcase your cross stitch piece Gloria, so here is a link to another easy method to do this www.alandacraft.com/quilting-tutorial-easy-signature-quilt-suitable-for-beginners/.
Fantastic tutorial. I’m new to sewing and I get intimidated by all these fancy complicated quilts, and then I stumbled upon your fabulous tutorial for this quilt!! I love it! No ruffle, no binding, no connecting puffy squares....just a simple yet beautiful quilt!! Thank you so much 💗💗. Can’t wait to tackle this! How long (total hours) do you think that it took to complete this quilt from start to finish? Thank you 🙏🏻 😊
Thank you for your lovely comment Bobbi. You should get this done in a day or less, it's very quick and easy to put together. There is no fluffing about, it's just a matter of sewing the strips together. Here is a link to the written instructions with photos www.alandacraft.com/2015/06/08/quilting-for-beginners-the-easiest-quilt-ever/
I must've clicked through 10 quilting tutorials before I landed on this one that finally made me feel like I'm learning it properly. Thank you!!!
That's lovely to hear Lisa. This is a nice easy one for a beginner 🙂
You make it look SEW easy! I have my fabric and I'm ready to try. I'm sure mine will not go as smoothly as you make it SEAM. Good thing Joannes has 50% off coupons.
I'm sure you will have no problems with making this quilt Mary, it is super easy. The written instructions are on the website www.alandacraft.com/quilting-for-beginners-the-easiest-quilt-ever/.

I follow all your tutorials as I love your style of teaching. I’m a beginner quilter and this video has helped me so much, thank you.
Thank you Alison. That is lovely to hear. :)
I LOVE THIS BECAUSE I AM A BEGINNER AT SEWING!!! I Am going to try this one as I think that it will give Me more confidence about sewing. 😊👍🏼
It certainly will Dalaine. Once you have made a couple of these there will be no stopping you. Its a nice easy one to start with. Have fun. :)
This was very easy to follow. It is everything I wanted to know. Now I am off to get some cloth to make my first one.
Excellent Carrol. You will love how easy this quilt is to make. :)
Amazing. I am a beginner too. Love your instruction (and accent)!
Thank you. This one is great for beginners.
Our sewing ministry met today. The group loved how they turned out and the adhesive spray which none of us have used before. It worked really well!
Thank you very much for your tutorials

A quilt each. I've been scared to try but your instructions have given me the courage to try. I definitely will subscribe to your channel. A fan from Southest Missouri or as my grands say 'Meme Jackie'
Thank you this video is very helpful.
What a great and quick way to make a quilt.I can,t wait to get my fabrics lined up ready to sew joy thank you
This is a fantastic video! Thumbs up all the way! 👍
+Gina Lay (The Mom Writer) Thank you Gina
Thank you so much for this! Super easy first full quilt. I'm in the middle of making one for my mother-in-law and I couldn't be more pleased thus far. I will post pics when it's all done.
That's awesome Ericka. We look forward to seeing your photos on the website. It's always exciting to see our readers finished projects. I have added the link here for you www.alandacraft.com/submit-your-project/ :)
Beautiful quilt
Thank you, and it's really easy to make.
Hello, how are you doing my friend?
Just used your no-binding method today on my first ever quilt - thank you for the great instructions!
Excellent Tiffany, happy to hear we were able to help out. Perhaps you would like to share a photo of you quilt on the website, here is the link if yoy are interested www.alandacraft.com/submit-your-project/
I am a total beginner. Whenever one of my kids rips holes in the knees of their jeans. I cut it off and hand sew the remaining piece into shorts. The leftover denim pieces I use I tried to hand sew into a quilt. Right now its kind of like putting unmatching pieces of already finished and shaped cloth meant for their original purpose. I don't have a is wing machines but have you guys ever heard of a workspace in the city called Gangplank?
Sewing machine
No we aren't familiar with Gangplank, although I googled it and it looks like something that is available in Arizona. Collaborative Workspace, sounds like a great idea, We are in Australia. I have to say that if I had to hand sew a quilt together it would never get done. I absolutely admire people with the patience to do it. You can make this quilt on just about any sewing machine, it doesn't need to be flash and fancy.
Thank you. In the summer in the the United States I have very little to do so I consider this busywork. My mom told me my uncle had a quilt made out of pieces of old, torn jeans so I decided to take on the project. I expect the finished project to be comfortable and display several darker shades of blue to give a rough yet comfortable vibe.
This sounds like a great idea, and I am sure it will look lovely when it's finished.
Alanda Craft.....so love this for a quick quilt, very good instructions! Thank you!
Love how you worked it so that no binding was needed. Very smart and creative thinking! Thank you.
Thank you Joanne. This method does make it quick and easy to finish a quilt. :)
And by the way, it wasn't originally our idea. This technique has been done for a long time now.
Great idea. Thanks. Can you tell me the type of presser foot you are using? I love this video!
We have used an open toe walking foot to do the ditch stitching. The rest of the quilt was put together using a regular sewing machine foot.
Thank you for answering so quickly! I will be making quilts using your method. I know I'll get a lot more made. 😀💕
how to stitch in hand?
I've watched your video, and i'll be using this as a guide to making my first quilt ever...in Patriot colors for donation quilts to Vets who are in the hospital...size wanted is 32 x 60 inches. TY SO much for your easy to understand instructions!!
What a lovely idea. Your quilts will be much appreciated. 🙂 You can make the quilts longer by adding more strips. Here is a link to the written instructions as well www.alandacraft.com/2015/06/08/quilting-for-beginners-the-easiest-quilt-ever/
I have a couple of quilting books and still had NO idea the concept of quilting. Your video made it so simple. I am going to start small by making some small quilts for my foster kittens!! Thanks!!
That's great to hear Fiona, and what a good idea to start with the kitty quilts. We do have a number of easy quilt tutorials on the website that you might like to try as you become more confident. Here is a link www.alandacraft.com/category/quilting/quilting-tutorials/
Thank you, this was so helpful! I'm a beginner quilter and have been trying (and bugged to death) to finish a quilt for my niece. But I was so confused on how to put it together once I had my quilt top assembled and batting and backing cut. And so many videos I have watched breeze past the part and don't give enough detail on the final steps before sewing all 3 pieces together. I was totally confused and hesitant to finish her quilt in fear that i would screw the whole thing up, leaving me and her both heartbroken. But with the clear instructions and visuals of your videos, I was able to put it together in a breeze and she loves it. So thank you, thank you, thank you!!
That is awesome. I am so please we were able to help you out with this. I'm guessing there will be many more quilts on the horizon now that you see how easy it is. And if you ever need any help with future quilts you can always contact us through the website www.alandacraft.com. We also have instructions for completing quilts with binding.
never quilted before - this is a great starter project - thankyou
It certainly is a great one to start with Tina. You will master it in know time at all. Welcome to the world of quilting. Be warned - it is very addictive. :)
Made a twin using this video. It is yellow and grey and turquoise. I big stitched it. Love it! Thanks!
Sounds awesome Phyllis. I would love to see it. Here is a link if you would like to share some photos on the website www.alandacraft.com/submit-your-project/

I have NEVER sewn a thing...but wanted to learn to do a quilt. This has been the best beginner one I have seen!
Thank you Brianna. It really is easy to do. And the written instructions are on the website if you need them. www.alandacraft.com/quilting-for-beginners-the-easiest-quilt-ever/.
I'm a beginner and I love that you actually showed all the steps from beginning to end. The only thing I wish could have been shown was the additional back stitches. Seeing that technique more than once is helpful.
love this easy to do and follow quilt tutorial, thumbs up to the person behind the camera your doing a great video ..ty x
Paula does the majority of the filming and directing. And I agree, Danine, she does a fantastic job. We are a team of 2 so we create, film, edit, write the blog posts and keep the craft/filming rooms clean and tidy. Life is pretty full on most times. But we love it.:)
Great quilt, I’m making this one, soon and I just finished my first quilt and thought, I’d never make another! Inspiring! Thanks
I love the beauty and simplicity. Thank you
I loved watching you teach, you didn’t talk to much you was so natural, I have to close some bloggers because there voices go through me and they look as if they spent al day at the beauty salon.tou taught beautifully thank you.
Thank you for your lovely comment Gilda. It's always a great feeling to get such nice feedback. 😊
I'm new to quilting and I'm thrilled to see your video. You made everything easy and also you are easy to understand. Thank you!

Finished making this Saturday and it came out perfectly. I used 4.5 inch squares. I followed the directions exactly. I've only been sewing /quilting for about eight months. Very happy.
Excellent Jaime. It's such an easy quilt to make. We would love to see some photos of your quilt if you would like to share them. Here is a link to our Readers Project page www.alandacraft.com/submit-your-project/

+Michelle King I am sure your students will find this easy to make Michelle. Its ideal for beginners and can be made by anyone who can sew a straight seam. We would love to see the results once they finish their quilts. www.alandacraft.com/submit-your-project/
I've been looking for a quick quilt for my nephews new little ones. A great, quick quilt! Thanks!
You are going to love this one Amy. It really is quick and easy to make.
Now that is an easy way to finish a quilt. I will take off the binding on my first quilt because I cannot get the corners right and finish it this way. Thank you so much.
This is such an easy way to finish a quilt. We do have a video on How to Bind a Quilt video th-cam.com/video/Z9me4B_etm8/w-d-xo.html which may help with your corner binding problem.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I tired the quilt for beginners. By golly it turned out wonderfully. I can't wait to purchase more fabric to make another quilt. I think I'm hooked. A big hug from Houston, Texas
