Your tutorial rocks! I've been hunting for an easy to follow, and straight to the point video that would show me how to connect QAYG blocks, and a lot of the video tutorials out there were so sluggish and dragged on and on...I nearly fell asleep on them. But your video tutorial is exactly what I was looking for. So easy to follow, and painless to watch. Thank you for your help!
I can’t believe I found your video again after 7 years! I made one of these for my granddaughter and 7 years later I was beyond excited when I was visiting her to find that she still has it ❤️.
I’m in the middle of a sewing funk and I’m going to dig out some Christmas fabric and make another one 😊
Hi, so pleased you found it again! I look forward to seeing your Christmas fabric quilt.
My dear teacher, you are one of the people who make the world a better place! Thank you for sharing your wisdom in such a sweet kind manner. In every quilt I make I use some of your techniques. God bless!
I know that you have adoring fans world-wide. Now you have one more. I have been sewing all my life but am bran new to quilting. My first quilting attempt produced loads of mistakes and buckets of tears. Then I found you. Your videos have served both as information and inspiration. You are absolutely amazing! Your ability to teach, explain, show, and tell all at the same time is nothing short of awesome. Best of all, your real love for the art shows through in every frame. Thank you for your core mission of sharing the craft with those of us who need it most.
Thanks, from where I sit, a stash is a good thing! It doesn't go off, contains no sugar, fat or cholesterol and is full of fibre, it is positively good for you to have a stash!
You have an artist's eye when it comes to selecting colors that look beautiful together. Excellent instructions.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I carried 15 lap quilted squares around for about 25 years because I never knew how I was going to put them all together. When I saw your tutorial, the light bulb turned on and I successfully put together enough sampler quilt squares to make a quilt that graces the bottom of my guest bed...and it is something I'm proud of even though I was just learning. Is it perfect? Of course not...but it's a finished project and I'm proud to say it's mine and I have come so far since then. Again, I want to thank you for giving me the courage to put it all together. My husband always asked me why I continued to tote around a big bag full of quilt blocks...I always knew when the time was right, I'd know what to do. You provided that time! :)
LOL I almost have you beat I have been working on one for 30 years. I have the store receipt from when I bought the floss for the cross stitching part. Now hubby is gone I have so much time on my hands Was a joy to finish the stitching along with reliving the wonderful memories we had. Hoping it does not take me another 30 years now to finish the rest. I am using some of his shirts as the backing pieces.
Hola! Yo no he hecho mis bloques aún pero siempre me preguntaba ¿cómo unirlos? y eso me había detenido. Ahora sé como lo puedo hacer y al igual que usted estoy feliz!!!☺☺☺
Mil gracias!!! Una de mis dudas era como unir los bloques y gracias a usted ya puedo empezar mi colcha!!!👏👏👏👏💕💕💕 Excelente trabajo y me gusta la forma en que explica! Gracias por compartirlo.
Dissapeading 9 patch quilt block
@@shadesofidaho Only 30 years... I got 37 years - jeans and denim skirts I have been saving since the early 1980s to make a quilt, but how was I ever going to quilt the thing on my little, old 1970s Elna? I am now working my way through the stash and have quilted each piece to within a half-inch of its life and are used a red strip to bind it together and it looks amazing. This is a game changing, stash busting, frugal way to quilt! I am hooked. Oh, and the tutorial was really easy to follow! Thank you.
I'm so glad I found you! As an 'older' quilter, who's fingers don't quite work like they used to, your tips and tricks have allowed me to keep going with my hobby! Thank you for all of your video's!
I have been sewing for over 55 years but I am now in the process of making my first big embroidery quilt. I could not have assembled the blocks ever without watching this video. And to be honest I had to watch it several times because the process seemed so complicated. Thank you very much for sharing your video and for your patient instructions. Now it seems like such a logical process. Many, many thanks!
I love your tutorials................Thank you v much for the fantastic and simple way of teaching.Love u very much
I have looked and looked and watched and watched but have done nothing but get more and more confused, UNTIL I found this video!! I knew there had to be an easier way than the overly complicated tutorials I was finding. This is THE way to join your blocks. You are the best Susan!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us, it is very much appreciated. Your tutorials are so very well done and you explain things in a way that is simple to understand and straight forward.
I felt the same way looked and looked and confused till I watched this video. Your the best Susan..
Thank you Thank you Susan
A mí me pasaba lo mismo!!! Estoy feliz!!!🎶🎶🎶🙌
Absolutely agree. I had given up hope after watching other tutes which were far from easily understood. Now that I have found this lady I can’t wait to see her other posts.
But first; back to the Dresden Plates.
I can not believe I see people who unlike this. I am in love with this quite. You have done beautiful job with it. Thank you so much for sharing!
Prelep pacvork i sada pokusavam da naucim od vas. Hvala vam puno na ovom bloku. Patchwork team.
Hey Susan! Just wanted you to know how helpful your method of joining quilted squares together was for me. I made a Christmas quilt with 12 squares that were 14.5" finished. The blocks are hand applique with lots going on. I needed to quilt them individually and then the quilt was already large for any of my walls. This method allowed me to show separation of my blocks without adding size. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the clear and concise instructions. Also, I love the vibrant and playful colors, as well as the originality you show in quilting the individual squares. Inspirational.
I want to thank you how detailed and accurately you explained in detail how to put my quilted squares together. I looked and looked and couldn’t find a video that gave me the confidence to actually put the squares together. It’s been months and now I have done it with your excellent tutorial. Thank you for taking the time to show me and all the quilters out there.

You have given the best demonstration of joining quilt as you go blocks I have ever seen! I have seen plenty of videos demonstrating this, and have just never got it until now. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I usually hand sew and quilt which takes a very long time and I do enjoy it, but I thought it could be fun to get a quilt done quickly using this method. I've been trying to learn from videos and I've finally found the right one, THANKS AGAIN!!!
I watched your video twice, sat down and put it together without ever needing to look back...this is the simplest way to handle large-small quilts! Thank you so much for the video.
Oh my goodness. I almost gave up on quilting as i dont have a specific quilting machine and i found working with very large items and trying to free motion any whole quilts impossible. NEVER AGAIN. QAYG just made sense. This method is a game changer for me so thank you so much.
I really enjoyed your description of joining the blocks together. I have seen other people but you made it mor e interesting and simplified the process
OMG I absolutely love this technique and your fabric choices. I have been addicted to your channel ever since I discovered you. Your accent is very soothing as you sound just like me mum who passed away this summer. Thank you for all you do and for making these wonderful quilting videos.
What a wonderful tutorial. Precise, clear instructions. Everything I needed to know in one easy lesson. Thank you.
Thanks so much. I could not imagine how to do this, and you have explained it with demonstrations that make perfect sense!
I'm another newbe who wondered how she was going to assemble a largish quilt. Thank you very much for clear and concise instructions, I am absolutely delighted that I can now finish my first quilt, thank you once more.
Thank you so very much for this tutorial!!!!!! I am a beginner and I want to make my grands ( 4 weeks old and 1 due in June) each a quilt. This tutorial helps so much!!!!!!!!!!
This is the simplest video I have seen for showing how to do this technique.I think it’s time for me to try it.Thank you for showing this so simply.
Brilliant. I love your choice of colors, front and back.
Thank you! This is the best video I’ve seen for Quilt as you go🥰
It's lovely! So cozy looking - I really like the backing, that little stripe adds even MORE to it.
Thank you so much for this post. This is a genius way to join the blocks together. I used to get on the floor to put the layers of my quilt together but am no longer able to get back up. It has been so long since I have made anything. Now my thoughts are racing at with possibilities. Again, thank you!
Thank you...you are a wonderful teacher! I am a very visual learner and your videos are helping me tremendously!
A huge THANK YOU Susan Claire, have just finished a quilt using your method of quilt as you go. This is an amazing way to put together a quilt particularly when there is limited work space. Thank you, Sue 💕
I am so excited by your video! I inherited about 20 gorgeous hand embroidered and quilted blocks a while back and had no idea what to do with them. The lady who made them is gone now but would be so happy to know that all of her hard work is indeed, going to result in a beautiful quilt, thanks to your video. Thank you so much.

I quit quilting a few years ago because it was to hard to finish my quilts thanks for giving me an alternative. Now I just need to get back to it!!! TFS
Hi how are you doing my friend
Finally a quyg block attachment I believe I can do! Very new to quilting so thank you
back again, for a refresher to YOUR method. So many ideas from many quilters. I've used this technique for MANY QAYG string quilts. You do a GREAT job in your presentation. Thank you again, over the years, for clear demo.
One very useful tutorial for joining pieces. Could apply the technique when making a table cloth from large scraps,but without the batting, of course.. Thanks for sharing your tips and suggestions for sewing lovers..
God bless and much love from Malaysia..
Thank you so very much!!! I have tried different ways of doing quilt as you go, but your way is the best!!! I just tried it today for the first time and will only do it your way from now on. Thanks for sharing.
Such a beautiful, colourful quilt!!
I’ve watched this several times & your tutorial to join QAYG is my favorite!!! Thank you!!!
THANK YOU I tried it, works great
Did use a walking foot. Looks great. You are a great teacher enjoy watching.👍🙂
I'm with you about hand sewing would never get done! Thank you for this tutorial!
You are so talented, I enjoy your videos the most and have learned so many valuable tips. Thanks so very much, you are fantastic!
Thank you for this video - I have shown several friends your technique - and they all join their blocks this way.
Love your tutorials, you are such a good teacher. Thanks for sharing.
Best "Quilt as you Go" tutorial I've seen yet. Thank you.
You are such a great teacher.
I’m designing a Christmas Dresden Plate lap quilt for my daughter and just connected the first two squares. Perfect.
So much better than wrestling a big bulky quilt under my little sewing machine. Win-win: The contrasting connecting stripe adds a lot to the design.
Can’t thank you enough.
Thank you! I am new to quilting and just finished a quilt-as-you-go baby blanket that turned out way too small. Your video was the best I could find on how to add panels to my project to make it larger. Appreciate you SO much!
Thank goodness this is still up after nine years! Excellent tutorial. Thanks so much for the clear explanation. I was struggling with QAYG until I stumbled upon this.
Thanks so much for the tut. I have bookmarked to watch again. I have wondered how to complete this task. I appreciate the simple approach.
Wish I had seen this video before I started to put my quilt as you go quilt together and have struggled to make it look half way decent. Now I know what to do I will make another. By the way I love you quilt it is so colouful and cheery.
I LOVE IT I REFER TO YOUR VIDEOS OVER AND OVER AGAIN
This is SOOOO helpful and well explained to help me finish the quilt I'm making for my granddaughter's double-digit birthday!! Thank you so, so much!!
Thanks a million for such sweet and clear directions!
A 10-year-old from my Sunday school class asked me to teach her some quilting methods. You inspire me to teach this method that you use. Thank you from Minnesota.
Hi Nancy
Great instructions! Concise, no-nonsense, clear… Thanks!
I've watched several videos using the same technique, but for some reason, yours is the one that clicked for me. It just made sense. Thank you for posting it.
Many thx. I love the way you demonstrated quilt as you go with strips. You made it look so uncomplicated. I tried it on a baby quilt about a year ago..was so proud of myself.. so thx to you again..
So talented. God Bless

The joining of the QAYG blocks is brilliant! It is by far the best QAYG tutorial I have seen. Most other QAYG only quilt the top with the batting/wadding. This is definitely the way to go if you are making a Queen size or larger quilt.
Hello how are you
I just discovered this video, and it's makes quilting now look so easy. Thank you for sharing! I was a little intimidated before, but quilting as you go by block and seeing the end result like this has inspired me. Thank you for sharing!
I think this is a very clever technique for joining QAYG blocks, I've always wondered how to get it to lay flat. I adore the brightly coloured fabrics you use in all of your tutorials Susan, they just add to the inspiration of it all. Thank you for all of your extra explanations, such as reversing the method of attaching the 'sashing' strips on top and bottom if you wish to finish the folded 'sash' by hand, to do it on the back of the quilt. Those extra tidbits show what an expert you truly are!
That is sooooooooooooooo Beautiful!!!!!! Patrick!
Well-explained! Great job of graphically describing how to put the "quilt as you go" squares together! Thanks!
I have my blocks made and quilted. So happy to see how to put it together. Thank you for explaining to make it easier to finish my quilt.
What a wonderful way to you up those small amounts of left over batting, thanks for tip!
I keep watching over and over. Thank you so much
Absolutely love this idea to do each square as you go
Hi 🙋♂️
Thank you for this great tutorial. Very well done. Starting my first "quilt as you go" and I'm now confident that I'll be able to join my blocks in a professional looking manner.
I love watching your demonstrations. There is always something to learn!
I love this video. I come back to it every time I need to put my block together. 💜
Great video! I've always been overwhelmed by the thought of quilting a big quilt, but now I can quilt as I go!
Wow!! Your video was concise and easy to follow. I have watched a number of them and there are different ways but this one was wonderful!! Thank you so much for explaining this in a no-nonsense way. I have 4 quilt tops I made YEARS ago and wanted to quilt them on my embroidery machine. It isn't big enough but I can quilt my blocks that I have made for a snowman quilt this way and I am thrilled that I can save this and watch it. Kudos!!!
Your tutorials are the best I've seen on how to join quilt as you go squares. I have become a great fan of yours. Hi from SW Florida!
WOW! This is great! A friend asked me to enlarge a crib blanket to a twin size and I've been wondering how to put the pieces together. THis will work! THanks so much for taking the time to create this video and your willingness to teach others. Much appreciated!
The film was lovely. I couldn't hear the commentary so put on the subtitles. They are hilarious. When you have a minute have a look. Thanks for your demo's. Easy to understand, despite the subtitles.

That was very good, clear and I formative. I am an experienced quilter but not experienced with quilt as you go! I found this perfect and so good it was Australian too!! I feel confident to carry on. Keep up the u tubes.
+Jane Green Hi, so pleased you enjoyed it! I am actually in New Zealand!!
This is brilliant. I'm on my sixth or seventh quilt using your method. You can use the same fabric on the back and the joining pieces almost disappear or have contrasting joining pieces. It's really just open to how you want it to be. Thank you for the information. I come back and review your information whenever I start a new quilt
I admire you! All you do is so perfect. I love you and wish you stay a long time with us on youtube!
Hi Nicole
I love this quilting method. I made a queen sized one and it turned out great. Thank you.
Thank you, so pleased you have got it now! Well done! I quilt right to the edge, because the edges are all covered it works well. I think the idea of leaving an inch or so unquilted is so that the layers can be joined separately etc, but this way it helps to have it quilted to the edges.
Lovely quilt and great tutorial. Very well explained. Very helpful. Thank you so much!
I have never been able to quilt a quilt as easy as this!! Thank you so uch for making this. I just love you for it🥰
Thank you so much for your videos. I have learned so much from you. Please keep posting videos.
Absolutely love this quilt! By far the best demo I've seen. Thank you.
That is a beautiful quilt! Enjoyed watching you explain how to sew the blocks together. Will make quilting each individual block much easier than wrestling with the whole quilt. Thank you "sew" much. :) Your a great easy to understand instructor/ teacher!!👍😀
Always a pleasure watching you and listening to your tutorials. Thanks so much
Thank you very much. Now i understood and will try. I have 20 blocks to quilt as i go. Have a nice weekend Ms Susan Clair
Thank you so much for making the videos, I have found your videos to be a blessing. Thank you so much!
Hello Barbara
Brilliant! Thank you so much. This is exactly what I hoped to find when I set out to make a very special blanket!
This is the best video and instruction on how to. This one makes sense.
You're welcome, look forward to seeing some of your projects!
JUST WHAT I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR! GOD BLESS YOU! YOU ARE GREAT!
I love this idea! GREAT way to join the blocks as you go, and beautiful too!
I've been worrying how to join my squares, the tutorial explains it very clearly and now I can't wait to try it!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I've been searching for just the right method to join the blocks that I've made and you have provided it! Bless you!
Thank you so much, I know this video is old but I keep watching it to remind me on how to join mym blocks, for me it does not get old, it's the best tutorial Iv'e seen.
I adore Susan's tutorials!!
Hi Judy
What a lovely idea, and so bright and cheerful!!!!! Love your tutorials, thank so very much.
I LOVE this!!!!!!!!!! I like this method with the strips much better than using the backing to join. And I love the fabric choices!!!!!
Never tried this method of quilting before but thank you for such a good, clear video showing how to join my blocks.
