- In answer to your requests, I made a video where I tray to show how to turn around a corner with different designs. I made some mistakes on the way. It was good, because I could also show you how to deal with it as well. I hope you will find this content useful. As always, I hope my content will provide you some quiet and relaxing time.

What a beautiful table runner! Great idea to use scraps and then quilt all different designs! Thank you!
It turns out pretty good. The fabrics match beautifly and the scrappy quilting matches the scrappy project. I love it. ❤❤❤
Always a pleasure watching you free motion.
Thank you most kindly! ❤❤❤
Loved watching the corners fill. Thank you
Thank you for your comments. This video sereis is also for me. Again I am out of my comfort zone ❤❤❤
Wonderful tutorial! I often lose focus because of things going on in my life, and it was SO helpful to see how you dealt with it. Thank You!!
I can promise you there will be more. There were more corners where I needed to improvise. I learned that in most of the cases, there is no need to panic. ;) First I thought to stop this project but then I realised, that it may be actually helpful....Thank you for your feedback ❤❤❤
I'm a great believer in "unintentional modifications" so I'm really happy you just push on through as well!
@@HeidiNesbitt-fq9zu I am human and sometimes I am tired and out of my zone. We all need this place where we can make mistakes and know it is OK. My job is very demanding and so quilting is my safe space. Sending hugs ❤❤❤
Such great designs, some familiar and some not. Thanks.❤
Thank you for your feedback. I have fun and I like to experiemnt. There are so many possibilities ❤❤❤
I love when I can make a second project from the leftover fabrics. This one is very evocative of springtime. I don't enjoy turning corners, either, but I particularly like the feather to navigate the turn. I finally decided on a start to my quilt, maybe a twin size. I'm starting with a 16" Crow's Foot variation, either as the center medallion or using more of the same to assemble as the only type block in the project. We'll see how that goes. The first block is cut and ready to sew tomorrow. Wish me luck! Thanks, Gosia ~Cynthia
Hi Cynthia, we are always busy and always have next project planned.... I like your plan. I have two quilts I need to finish (just quilting), and then I have a large scarp project. Blue/green courthouse blocks on point. The scraps are 1.5 inch wide so cutting alone takes forever. But I have many scraps and they need to be used.
I love this table runner too. I am more than half done and the scrappy quilting works just fine ❤❤❤. And I wish you the best of luck.
@@quiltingnerd Keeps us out of trouble, LOL
@@rootsrocksfeathers1975 Trouble seems to find me anyway ;)
@@quiltingnerd me, too, LOL
Thankyou for sharing, just want to say, when life gets troubling, for me I hand quilt . Needle and threads or a book are my answer. Primrose mcvay
Dear Primrose, you get me we are very similar people. When life get too loud (and this is the case for me right now) I have this need to hide and slow down. This is why hand quilting or embroidery is on my couch. Hand quilting is increadible for soul. Books work for me when I just need to relax in my "normal" state. I love to dive into stories, but if there is too much "drama" it is also too much. Today, I was cutting stripes for scarp quilt. That was also good. Sending you hugs and thanks ❤❤❤
👍❤️
Thank you most kindly ❤❤❤
Since I am getting ready to move, I am going through my hoard and organizing and sorting: neither of which are my strong spots, lol...however, am getting some amazing stuff rap quilt ideas so I am writing them down or making a "quilt kit" as I go
If I read it right, you are getting distracted from packing by playing with fabrics 😁😂. I am the same. Sometimes I go over my stash and sort out fabrics for quilts. Then , few years later I reorganized them again....it is part of the fun. But I do love scrap quilts and I make them faster than the coordinated ones.❤️❤️❤️
What color thread are you using? It looks good on all your block colors.
I am using several colors in different shades of yellow, gold and browns. With so many colors in my project I need something with high contrast. And green is sometimes difficult to film. I use polyester embroidery thread. They come sometimes in boxes of once color scheme. They are fun to use. ❤❤❤
Thank goodness for eco lines, I'm wondering if it would be easier to start at corner? Primrose
Hi there again. In this case, starting at the corner woul work, as we have only one corner per unit. But if we have to go around... you are going to hit another corner sooner or later. Marking some orientation points would help for some designs but not all. This is why I made this video series. There are many designs and sometimes one strategy works better than the other. I know I learned a lot! ❤❤❤
Absolutely beautiful, so fascinating watching you, can I ask what model machine you use, is it a longarm or a domestic sewing machine
I do not have space for a long arm. I always quilted on a domestic machine. First small ones. Now, I have a Janome M7. It is a large sewing machine. But smaller Janomes, Brother, Juki, are doing wonderful job as well. ❤❤❤
@quiltingnerd I am in complete awe of you and how you quilt, I have a brother NV1300... I'm piecing is very good, my quilting is extremely bad, I am planning on using your extremely good techniques to help me, master the art of quilting
Great video. Now to make my sample and try these designs?
I think I will have to make a short video on the basic block. I still have some scraps. I will try to provide it next week. ❤❤❤
Is there a pattern to piece the top? I would love to repeat it. :)
Hi! I did not make a pattern, I just winged it, but it is not complicated. You need a square and stripes of selected length. You put one layer on two sides of the square in the same color. then you add two more stripes with a corner stone in the color of the large square. This is all.
I am hoping that one day I can put some of my projects as a pattern with the quilting designs.....one day I will find the time. ❤❤❤
