Haven’t read through all the comments so forgive me if this is redundant, but I recently took a Crazy Quilt class which used 9 fat quarters that was similar to this, but there were 9 pieces cut from each fat quarter. The trick to making sure each block you put together from the cut pieces are different from each other is to move pieces from each stack to the bottom of that same stack corresponding to the number of that stack. Meaning take one piece from the top of stack 1 and move it to the bottom of stack 1, take two pieces from the top of stack 2 and move them to the bottom of stack 2, take three pieces from the top of stack 3 and move them to the bottom of stack 3, take four pieces from the top of stack 4 and move them to the bottom of stack 4. It continued for the 9 stacks, but in this case the fifth stack would stay as is. Now all the pieces showing are different. Just grab the top piece from each stack and sew to make the new block. Each stack will have a different piece uncovered as each block is sewn. This is a great pattern and can’t wait to make one using just 5 pieces! Thanks for sharing!
Seems jumbling around is much more difficult, adjusting each stack at the beginning takes so little time and ensures each piece in the block is different.
absolutely love hearing the little ones having fun with each other in the background----brings back memories...... another quilt i'm going to have to add to my to do list, except i have the accuquilt cutter and die and will make it with those. this is a beautiful quilt.......thank you for your tutorial
Awesome lesson Miss Penny ! I am getting the fever to start making a quilt again ! I'll be checking out your online store for goodies as well. Thank you and Blessings !
I also made one with skinny black strips between each section~~~I did one side sewing pieces together then I did the same on the other side! Yeah! My 2 quilt tops are beautiful!
This is a stack n slash method that was in a magazine about 25 years ago. We used fat quarters put them together with a quilt as you go method, using our machines fancy stitches for the quilting. Fun quilt and method of construction!
Love the colors and prints of thisRiley Blake fabric❣️❣️💓💓😍🪡🧵✂️📍Doesn’t matter how long I have kept fabric untouched either❣️❣️👌😂☺️😊🤭That is just how I roll Penny❣️❣️👍Fun quilt❣️❣️💓💓
When I made this pattern, I first take the first stack and I leave it, next stack I put top on bottom, next set I take first 2 and put on bottom, etc., etc.~~~then I star sewing the piles. Works pretty fast! Just sharing!❤
Seems to be a safe way to have total and immediate control of the pieces not ending up with sames beside each other. No worries. )))) Pure fun quilting. )))
Fabric addiction is WHY we quilt. Its a perfect excuse to have bins and bins of cloth )))) and still keep adding. Garden needs all day for right now but Fall is coming and Winter too, so fab time for sewing bits of cloth together eh? O yeah.... Collect now, sew later. hahahaha
That's exactly what I've been doing the last few months, since early May, here in S.E. Idaho as I began to need to use my creativity as part of my healing after losing my husband last Sept. During the cooler hours of the day or when there's a nice large area of shade, I work in my yard. While cooling down and putting my feet up, I've been shopping for fabric, floss, etc. online and watching tutorials. I'm gathering supplies for slow stitching, which is sort of similar to crazy quilting in that there's no definite pattern. But it's quite different in that the pieces are usually hand sew together and it's primarily a hand stitching sampler project for learning new-to-me embroidery stitches.
I’m so sorry to hear short your husband. I’ll be praying for you. Keeping busy is a good idea. I’ve never done slow stitching but love hand embroidery.
This is both charming and beautiful. I absolutely love those fabrics. I wish I was there to steam press each block and row (with starch) for you so the quilt top will be perfection. All that work, to not steam iron it, drives me crazy to watch. I always iron as I sew garments or quilts. I really love what you created there. Very nice. Congratulations on another very special creation.
Thank you! I starch some as I go but this partial one doesn’t really need it. Of course, that’s a preference thing. It turned out perfect with or without starching it. 😁
Love this idea! I have 3 projects in progress on my table right now so I must have the addiction now! My quilt top from craft-a-cropolis is almost all together finally but I’m working on making it bigger.
I just bought this last week I wanted to do a crazy quilt and I wanted to do it the easy way...I also got the 5 x 5 papers to do blocks.I also just ordered some 10x10 fabric squares...great video..so I am already to do a quilt..
Good tips for squaring up raw blocks ))) Make one corner square first, then trim to size. Easy. If your ruler matches the desired size, you can shuffle it around to cover the perfect view, and cut the leftovers. SO much easier than how I started "a hundred years ago". THANKS )))
This was such a terrific video. There was nothing that was boring, all I did was learn more and more. I know you said the line was older but I have about half of the fabrics and I love them. I have held onto for years waiting until I found the perfect pattern, technique, whichever🤪. Can you please tell me what the name of that line is? Thank you❤️
I live right outside of Tampa and we were so glad Debby went a little further west of us, but torrents of rain for almost 48 hrs straight made the ducks happy!😂
You may enjoy doing some research on the original crazy quilts. They were made of beautiful velvets etc. and embellished with gorgeous embroidery. Definitely a labor of love done by the wealthy ladies I believe. I have a feeling Lori Holt had a version of these in mind.
Wouldn't it be easier to leave one stack alone; next stack place the top fabric to the bottom of the stack; next stack take the top 2 and move to the bottom; next stack take the top 3 to the bottom; and so on? Put them together by using the top fabric from each stack.
You could even slice off an inch or so from top or/and bottom and attach to opposite ends OR square it and save cut off chunks and sew another oroject like we do for small scrappy bits.
My Mom would call that a "LAZY CRAZY QUILT." It will look like a real Crazy quilt. The more prints you use the better it will look. Are you going to do some fancy embroidery after you sew the pieces together? Don't forget to include at least one "Spiders Wed" (for good luck). Thank you. This is a wonderful idea. I love the fabrics you used.
Hi I've never made a quilt but am going to have go. One question why are the seams not pressed open, why are they pressed to one side? Also as an avid seam neatener when I sew normally why are the seams never zigzaged or overlocked in quilting?
Usually 90x96 is the minimum for a king size. Sizes vary per individual likes. Based on that, I would say about 156. Mine was a throw and I had 42 squares.
@@sewcharmingquiltshop thank you so much. Now I know I can make a quilt for my bed with borders around it. I am so ( sew ) glad I found your channel. Thank you again.
Idid.t catch the name of the block but it looks like a fruit salad.i love it...snowball some corners and you would have marshmallows in your fruit salad
Same here 😂,can’t stop buying fabric, is an addiction 😂😂😂😊
Yes it is!
Ditto!
Amen!
It certainly is 🎉

Yes, that works too. This is just easier. I hope you make it. It’s a fun block to make.
Shuffling your way makes the process easy peasy! Thanks!
Seems jumbling around is much more difficult, adjusting each stack at the beginning takes so little time and ensures each piece in the block is different.
It’s a preference thing. There are multiple ways to do it. No way is wrong. That’s what is so great about quilting. You do it the way you want to! 😁
Love p😂p😂
This is such a great idea for quilters like me that are cutting challenged! It'll make me look like I know what I'm doin' 🤪
Hahahaha you can do it! It’s a fun one too.

Small sashing strip will make it looked like a stained glass? Love this idea!
Lovely colors, makes me feel happy and cheerful.
This pattern would look good with 1" white sashings sewing between each fabric. Great idea using papers. Thank you for sharing. ❤🎉
Yes, it would!
Pretty quilt! Thanks for sharing!

Love that. Will have to get some of those papers next time I am in the shop.

I have the same layer cake lol. Just waiting for the perfect project
No telling how long ago I got it. Finally used it!!
I like your frugality...just make sure all blocks measure the same size, no matter the instructions. That's how my mind works too!😅
Yes!!!
Adorable!
Thank you!
I would like to say thankful for your help and support 🎉🎉🎉
from Gerry- fabric is like chocolate- you must have some! God bless.
Love it!
I did this more than 30 years ago with instructions from Eleanor Burns’ book CRAZY QUILTING
Lovely. 💖💓🦋🌷💕
I have that same machine n I love fabric
Don’t you love it?!!!
Like you're style ,just found you.
The audio was coming and going. The concept of this quilt is great.
You can use some of the decorative stitches on your sewing machine and topstitch on the seams for an added bonus.
Yes you can

I’m not sure how I will quilt it yet.
When you iron your seams open, are you ironing them flat or to one side?
You can do whichever. I ironed to one side on this one.
Ok I just ordered the ruler and two sets of papers. I will let you know how I get on with it. Thank you.
I just got the order. Thank you. I will ship it out in the morning.
@@sewcharmingquiltshop Thank you so much.

It’s a preference thing. If you want to press them open you can. Some people do.
I have fabric I love that I bought and it is waiting for a design
Is there a pattern for the craft o crop plus quilt pattern please? Thank you.
Which one?
I'm the same way I have to take it out and look at it
How can I get the pattern paper
The link is usually in the description. 😁

Does anyone know where I can buy the paper patterns in UK. I'm new to quilting
Send us your address and we can see what shipping would be. If you want. PM the address on Facebook messenger to our shop page or text us with it.
How do I find those paper

So basically it's like stack n whack.
In a way
Did you cut all the squares up at once. I realize we only saw 5 on camera
I never cut all of them on the camera as people would get bored. I show how it done from start to finish. 😁
Sorry, one question. How many blocks of 8 1/2 will I need to make a king size quilt ? I am not very good at math. LOL
Usually 90x96 is the minimum for a king size. Sizes vary per individual likes. Based on that, I would say about 156. Mine was a throw and I had 42 squares.
