“As I’m sure you have” 😂I feel called out! Thank you, can’t wait to try this.
Thanks for this simple way to use up my FQ’s!
Thank you so much! I just love the way you teach and your clear instructions. Cheers, from Texas!
Love the way you taught this. Personally I'd put a clearer dividing strip on b between the main body and the final border. But making things your own after a tutorial is what real teaching is about. Carry on your good work. It's important. And UK bound. Will definitely give this a go. You make real sense. Thank you.
Beautiful quilt and great tutorial. Thank you for sharing.
Also you need at least 17 1/2" × 20" workakable fabric per each fat qtr. There are initially 5 strips cut 3 1/2" x 20". That would be 17 1/2". I think she said 17 by 20.
This will be my first quilt. Thank you
Thank you for great ideas for fat quarters ❤
That's a lovely block.
Thank you for all the lovely ideas
I have so many fat quarters to use up - this is marvelous - thank you 😊
You've heard of "Swedish Death Cleaning", I call it "Swedish Death Quilting"....I've not been quilting long, came to it later in life (59), been doing it a couple of years and look at my stash and thought it an aptly conscripted turn of phrase of those of us with fabric galore.
I love the phrase you used at 6:37, "A happy accident". I'm guessing that's a British phrase because I'm not familiar with it here in the U.S. From here on out, I will not only remember it in regards to that bit a selvedge, but I will also look for ways in how to make something good out of a small unpleasant incident among everyday occurrences. Thank you!
I'm here to report that here in the US we do use "happy accident". Or at least I do!
Thank you for this quilt pattern. I have more fat quarters than I know what to do with! This will be a fun one to do for Project Linus. Truly appreciate all your videos. I always learn something new. Cheers!
As usual I love the simple use of color. Very nice quilt. Thank you for the video 😊👍💕
I love this pattern. Thanks for the tutorial!
I made this In Christmas fabric it looks great
Thank you for sharing! I love your quilt. ❤️
Superb! Thanks for sharing….loved the colour combination of the finished quilt. Dottie xx
I like the Christmas fabric's idea. I'm working on your layer cake quilt. I love it.
I very much enjoy your content. Thank you for posting this video!
Marvelous. Running to pull 12 fq now.
I’ll raid the stash this morning! Thank you!
I love your videos, you got me back into sewing thanks ever so much
Thanks for the ideas and inspiration.
Will definitely be making this! Love, love, love it!!!
I love this patter and it looks easy for a beginner. Thank you so much.
Thank you for this pattern. This is a great way to use fat quarters!
I just bought new fat quarters. I can't wait to get cutting.
Thank you so much for this video. I want to go dig out some fat quarters and try this. It is wonderful and would make a great scrappy quilt out of any seasonal fabrics. Appreciate how you gave the cutting measurements too.
This quilt is a great beginner-friendly quilt. Also, a very efficient use of fabric. I love the muted yellows, blues and purples in this quilt.
Thank you for demonstrating "ciphering" for determine the most efficient way to cut the fat quarters. I use that method on WOF cuts as well to determine which is the better divisor (height? width?) so that I can get the fullest amount of cuts.
Thanks for the physiology reminder to cut from shoulder v. wrist. For those with mobility/dexterity issues, the Martelli rotary cutters offer a little more ease for gripping and leveraging shoulder weight for cutting.
Though it is a splurge, the GE Designs Stripology (XL) makes short work out of cutting and sub-cutting . It is an MVP in my sewing room...allows me to cut quickly and accurately in a fraction of the time.
Love this design, I have so many fat quarters and will be using this pattern. Thank you!
Thank you so much! I have lots of 1 yard cuts that I had no idea if I would ever be able to make anything out of them. They don’t really MATCH so this quilt could actually work! I’m so excited about all of this, and I love watching your tutorials even tho I never get to make anything! You are just awesome😊
Hi Rita. Thanks for the kind words, good luck with your quilt.
Thank you so much for this pattern! I have been collecting paisley fat quarters for years (absolutely love the intricate patterns) and have been waiting for the right pattern to show them at their best. They are every colour and pattern imaginable and do not match so this is a beautiful solution.
I was taught to put the widest salvage side on the top so you can be sure to cut them off without guessing if you cut them all off at once.
I love this pattern, I’m making it with Xmas fabric. I noticed that the two blocks at the end are different the 5” blocks are on top in one block and underneath on the other, which is why it matches up without seam s when joining
great tut thank you/Gisela in sweden
awesome and quick, thank you
Wow looks so easy, I’ve got stuck make a simple disappearing 9 block quilt! These videos give me hope tho x
Hi Gemma, Keep on trying - you'll get there.
A wonderful pattern! Definitely a great one for the extra fabrics I have. I will do this next! Thank you for the instructions always so clear and well though out. Your presentation is so precise, easy to understand.
I look forward to making this because I have a lot of fat quarters
Wondering if there is a written pattern available and how to view the pattern. I am new to quilting and need the measurements in writing. Thank you!
Thanks for the cutting tip
This is great!
Excellent. 💝
beautiful
To cut from the shoulder, I have to make sure my elbow is tucked into my side so my hand, elbow, and shoulder are in a straight line when I push the rotary cutter away from me.
I love your site. Thank you for all of your information and quilt ideas.
❤❤❤
if you have the table space, I turn the mat rather than the fabric so I dont disturb the lay of the fabric
Lovely tutorial can I ask how much backing fabric and what the quilt size is please
Was just asking what you did with all the extra 5 inch X 3 1/2 inches patches.
Did you stitch in the ditch on your sewing machine or by 🖐? Love the colours in your quilt. Very nice thank you for sharing with us.
Hello Karen, Glad you enjoyed the video. Katrina stitched in the ditch on her sewing machine.
how much backing would this need
Katrina, I love your accent. In what part of England were you brought up? This is a great pattern.
Hello Valerie, Katrina was brought up in Herfordshire.
@@SewingStudio You are so sweet to respond. Thanks very much. She’s very knowledgeable and down to earth. I’m in VA in US.
Hello, where do you tend to buy your fabric from? Thank you
Hi Aylaia, Katrina buys her fabric from our shop! www.thesewingstudio.co.uk
Can we find the cutting instructions written down
Can you make this a larger size?
All quilts can be upsized or downsized by simply increasing or decreasing the number of rows and columns.
funny how we still use inches, but also mention metres. :)
What are the total number of blocks which can be made from the 12 fat quarters if I don’t use any of the fabric for borders? I love this idea but I need a longer quilt.
It looks like there are 44 blocks in the border. Though they may not be of the same composition needed for each block which requires 2 x 3.5" cut and 2 x 6.5" cut and 2 x 5" cut. Each block will finish at 9" square. Contains 6 blocks. So you could get potentially 7 additional blocks--so you would only get another 9" for another row from the leftovers from my ciphering....but it is above my pay grade to tell you if the leftovers will give you that configuration!
Using borders or other framing blocks might be a good choice to make this larger. Or consider using a background fabric from yardage to stretch your fat quarters and cut some of each of the cut sizes.
@@notesfromleisa-land7893 thank you. In my calculations there are 30 finished blocks, I can do what she did to finish and then as you suggested add borders top and bottom to get a longer quilt. It’s certainly wide enough. I love her tutorials but I needed a bit more info on this. My pay grade was over reached also, math has never been my best subject.
@@loisellwood4407 Your math on the finished blocks is correct...there are 5 rows of 6 blocks finishing at 9" (trimmed size 9.5).
We are in the same pay grades, so we should have a drink sometime!
@@loisellwood4407 P. S. I promise you that if you make your head hurt and do just as you did...review the pattern count and "cipher" you will create for yourself an endemic understanding of block/quilt construction. You will be able to look at any pattern, and figure it out.
Also, you might consider downloading some of the many pdf's out there on fat quarter yield. Those are also a great resources to improve your working knowledge on yields and such.
Happy Quilting!
Hi Lois, When you've cut all your 12 Fat Quarters you will end up with
60 3.5" squares,
60 3.5" x 6.5" rectangles &
120 3.5" x 5" rectangles.
Hope this makes sense.
👍👏🥰🌸🇦🇺
