HAPPY MONDAY EVERYONE. Family was visiting this weekend so this video had to take second place. I just loved making these blocks. I can't believe how many scraps I was to use up.

Perfect priorities ❤
👏👏👏🥰❤️😀
I do all my quilting qayg. Haven't done this method yet.
0
I so love this method. Makes my life easier and more productive while living in a small space. I can work on making several styles of blocks at the same time while I continue to collect scraps to complete my projects.
Thanks. This is the first time that QAYG has really made sense to me.
same! the binding of each block confused me but Karen is a fab teacher xx
Me too!
I agree! It was a great video!
Agreed!
There are many more videos out there that are much easier to follow.
I laughed out loud as soon as I saw your title. I've made string quilts and absolutely love making them, but I've yet to use up all my scraps and I made my first quilt 41 years ago. But I'm going to keep trying and this was a great video. I'm so glad you shared this awesome block.
Where do the scraps go?😅
@@carlaatkins2619 They go to find friends to bring back home with them.
Thank you for the video. I quit little quilting I did after diagnosis with cancer. I m not good at it. But enjoy spending time doing it. But this video tempted me to finish my scrap and may be I will give it a go. I m from Sri Lanka where long arm machine even doesn’t exist for what I know. Only garment factories probably might have.
Your smile is like a sun shine 😊.
As always, best verbal instructions on the internet for quilt tutorials, and this was the best QAYG video tutorial as well! Thank you.
‘Tips and tricks’ has never been so applicable, thank you Karen.😊
This was so perfectly executed. So detailed, easy to understand at every level, so very thoughtful down to the last detail. Don't forget to check this, look out for this, double check this before this. Plus so many clear examples and demonstrations. This is the ultimate quilting video. I've never seen a better teaching video. Plus your voice is so soothing. Amazing fantastic job!!! ❤❤❤
Wow, thank you!
OMG! Thank you soooo much for the clear and concise directions and the tidbits and reminders. I have been sewing since a child but only quilting for 3 years. I do not have space for a large quilter and this idea is ingenious. I have seen others on youtube show HOW but You Method is Number One! I love the one inch binding- Its Perfect. You have saved me! Thank you Karen! 😀
Thank you. Your teaching style is so easy to understand.
Your videos are better and more detailed than classes I've taken in quilt shops!!
Thank you sooooo much for your clear and concise explanation of your QAYG method. You don’t know how much I really needed to understand how to join the blocks together. I appreciate all your videos and practical techniques.
Looking forward to this mini-series!!!! The quilt on your Birch mattress is spectacular!
Best Quilt as You Go video on TH-cam!!!!
I absolutely love you. Wish we were neighbors! 😊
I’m ready to start quitting. I’ve been nervous to get started. Your video is excellent. Very detailed presentation with guidance and tips to be successful. I will continue to follow.
Great tutorial on quilt as you go. Thank you, Karen. We need more of these tutorials even for some of us that have been quilting for awhile. Our brains sometimes get foggy.
You are so welcome!
Thank you ever so!
My grandkids who are 12 and 14 (boy and girl), are making their first quilts.
They are doing 9 inch blocks when it’s completed will be a mosaic pattern so obviously the styles are different.
Trying to find someone with a long arm that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to quilt. It has been a struggle.
Watching your video. I am now confident that we can do it at home and I know the kids will be excited to do it also.
thank you so much for such an in-depth instructional video.
What a fantastic video and way easier than it looks thanks to you thorough explanation. I appreciate you showing me this! Waving from Indiana, USA
I’m I the only one that automatically hits “like” when she says “so stick with me, and I’ll show you how to do it”? 😂 ❤
🤗🤗🤗
I make scrap blocks but use muslin as the base and make a quilt top and quilt as usual but this method looks interesting, will definitely try this. Thanks for the interesting videos.
Now you’ve set my brain working, @judyallhands3361. I’ve been craving a coverlet (summer-weight quilt with no traditional batting) but knew it would be best to have a middle layer not some kind, not just a pieced top and a backing. Your use of muslin might just be the perfect weight and will add the necessary opaqueness and added stability. Thank you for commenting.
@@hollywaddell6727some people use a single layer of flannel as batting. It’s thin enough for summer
You’re the best on TH-cam for quilting. I love the way you teach. I learn so much every time I watch your videos. Thank you so much!
This is a method I should try to use up many small pieces. Scraps from each quilt all in their own blocks would be a fun memory quilt for myself since I give away almost all of my quilts.
Julie, super idea💡. I am going to borrow it!!
loved how you put these blocks together, you explained it so clear, thanks
This was best explanation for quilt as you go I have seen and will be great for the charity quilts I make
Love that you pack so much in each video.!
This was the best and most detailed tutorial I have seen on QAYG method. Thank you!!!!
This is the best video for QAYG. very clear, concise and precise instrucyion❤
Perfect timing. I just received 30+ QAYG log cabin blocks from the 1970s. Go gold, orange and brown! Im going to use this method to stitch up several smaller quilts for charity and honor the mystery woman who made the blocks so lovingly all those years ago.
Thanks Karen for making it so simple, fast, accurate & a huge smile 😊 comes as we use up our "favorite" fabrics!! ❤❤❤ you are appreciated!!
Your videos are always so informative. Thanks
I did the "squares on diagonal" method as an experiment. My center was a consistent white and I put all medium values on one side and dark values on the other. The resulting lighter and darker diamonds with the white faux sashing looked great.
I bet that looks beautiful!
I wish we could post pictures here as I would love to see it.
I did a similar design, using black "Grunge" as my diagonal center, but then just kept it scrappy. The blocks turned out better than I'd hoped!
I used bright yellow for a kid charity quilt. It was really fun to make.
@@carlaatkins2619me too!!
I've watched many QAYG videos. But yours is the only one that has shown how to put the blocks together to make a quilt.
THANKS!!!! The whole project makes sense now.
You look slimmer and ''brighter'' . Whatever you do do, keep on ! Congrats for your commitment and perseverance. 😉
Finally a great explanation of how these blocks and quilts are made. Thank you so much!
As a lazy quilter, this seems like a good idea for making coasters, trivets, placemats, and hot/cold pads. Piecing the blocks together to make a full-size quilt looks like a pain in the butt. And neck and shoulders. 😊
I see some scrappy gifts-for-friends projects in my near future.
This is so fun! I like to use a slightly wider strip folded in half on the top so I don’t have to deal with turning under that quarter-inch, but I learned that I make it a hair bigger than the math says because you lose a smidge of fabric in the fold. Then I top-stitch on both sides of the top of the binding.
If you use a jelly roll strip, you cut 1” off and are left with a 1.5” strip the you press in half with wrong sides together for the front. Anyway, I hope this makes sense. It’s such a swell method…now I want to go make scrappy blocks! Thank you so much for the inspiration. Also, that fusible bobbin thread is blowing my mind…absolutely brilliant!
That’s the method I use too. It works really well.
I just want to say that your graphics are so simple yet so helpfull!! I do the same when I teach. Those simple examples when you apply a concept to the actual mather in question are the most effective to make your point across and visualize it. Im always impressed when i watch your videos and I'm mad i didn't told you sooner. You rock!! ❤
Thank you so much. Some techniques need the graphics to be clear, sometimes I don’t have a clear video angle so I use a graphic and sometimes the brain needs a break.
What a clever way to QAYG. The binding is a neater way to make it work. Love the layout options too. Thanks. 🇦🇺
You can also start sewing in the centre of the block and build out like a log cabin. For the first centre piece sometimes I make a small patchwork grid, or use a picture for an eye spy piece. Another fab how to Karen!
That’s an excellent idea. Thanks for sharing
Fantastic to know, thank you Karen for helping us deal with all our cutoffs, and to manage the bulk with our domestic sewing machine. Again a big THANK YOU. 👍❤️😊
Great tutorial Karen, I love the way you work. Fast and super resultats. Thank you.
Karen, this is the CLEAREST, most informative video I've seen on QAYG. I'm looking forward to the next in the series. Thanks so much, Your friend from New Mexico, Carla 🎶 💖 💐
this is addictive! 25 years quilting and now I am finally getting around to trying this. oh yeah!!! I am all in.
I'm kind of drowning in scraps right now! Rather than try to figure out more storage space, I need to do THIS! This is particularly nice for summertime. I do NOT want a big heavy quilt all over me this time of year!😊
You look amazing!!! It’s obvious you’re working hard to feel more comfortable in your clothes.
Absolutely thrilled with your quilting tips. As an older new comer to quilting, I appreciate the knowledge you put into your tutorials. You .ake it seemseeasy even though it is anything but easy. You give great tips based on your experiences over the years and give information of how to, why to, when to and all of that information is filled with answers of why and how. So basically you tell us this is how, these are the tips of things i learned over the years and why is answered as well! I hope that makes sense. Thank you Karen!!
🤗
As so many others finally I understand how to combine the single blocks together.
Brilliant video, thanks Karen, when I will get fed up wrestling with a huge quilt going through my little domestic sewing machine, this is the kind of quilt I'll make❤
😲🤔😃😃😃 Thank you! I've always avoided this technique because of the "connecting" step. This is doable 💖
Love this video and instruction are perfect ThankYou!
I love tutorials about scraps! I love your dollar store finds too. Keep up the good work!
A method I have always intended to try, but never have. The visual is so helpful.
No matter what the issue is I'm having, there is always a Just Get It Done Quilts video that helps out. "Eat the frog first" was a good thing to remember this morning! Will try QAYG again after this video.
Wow, learning Hawaiian technique!
Your method has helped with my fear of trying to quilt a huge blanket on my machine. I think I can do this. It will be my first quilt! Wish me luck.
The first thing I love about this, is the ruler as a template! That is awesome
I've always been confused on how the binding between the squares worked, especially the top side. your video made it so obvious, thank you for solving a mystery for me!
The quilt you put on your bed is beyond stunning. A real close up and a few words about the design etc
I have already done a full video about it th-cam.com/video/pGXCmFMb4l8/w-d-xo.html
I have made two large quilts this way. It does make quilting a whole lot easier on my Singer 301 sewing machine.
Пересматривая Ваши Советы, все время нахожу для себя что-то новое. Большое спасибо!
That shade of lipstick looks good with your complexion.
Thank you
Good evening lovely Karen, Can i be mean and say that i really love your video's that show you making something.. I love your hints and tips, but i so much enjoy them more when you share what you are making with us. One of these days i might get to go on a retreat of a crafty kind, any crafty kind as i love all crafts, but oh does your trip to Honolulu sound lovely. Please, have a wonderful time and bring us back all the wonderful highlights, leaving any secrets on board so that we can't let them escape. Thank you for another great video, sending you crafty hugs from Norah, GLenochil, Central Scotland
Wow, this was eye opening! I had no idea the flexibility of this method and I never understood how to sew them together with the binding strips between each block. Amazing! Thank you Karen for once again inspiring me 🤗😁
Could you do a tutorial on installing walking foot and using? I have one but have no idea how to use it. Thanks for considering. :)
Thank you!
This make so much sense. I feel energized to tackle my scraps and batting to make a scrappy quilt. Thank you so much!
What a great how-to. This process is so much better than fighting with a full size quilt. And I absolutely
💗LOVE💗 the pink theme!!🥰
I have sewn a number of QAYG quilts. I prefer to sew a row of blocks together, then quilt each row. This gives less seams on the back. Sewing borders on is easy, too. My scraps are finally organized. My last bin was sewn into three string aquilts, qayg! Love your videos!
Oh Karen! Hawaiian quilting in Hawaii! Happy trip! Enjoy 😊you will learn so much. And share with us?😁I did a pillow with a Hawaiian sea turtle design. Had questions on the corners and curves.
This is my first time watching your channel. I'm Celeste from Indiana and it's so nice watching you! Thank you for taking time for us to always learn something!
Thank you so much for this fantastic idea. I made a large patchwork quilt for a wedding gift last year and wished I had seen this video before hand. I am now using your idea for many more quilts as my family has out in many orders since the wedding quilt ❤
I just had to save this video! What a wonderful way to quilt as you go! Thank you for such detailed instructions! I look forward to trying this!
One of your best tutorials. Thank you for your clarity and detail. Further more the three words Hawaii,quilting,and holiday must be three of the best…
Great video, i have so many fabric scraps to use up....x
Whoa!!! Easiest method I have seen to join them together!! Many thanks. I have enough blocks from years ago I just need to join. Your video and instruction is clear and concise, I have been viewing many ideas on the “join”… thank you thank you. Fabric fear no more😂
Wow! What a jam packed video. I’m going to have to review this one several times to absorb all the information🙂. Thank you.
Thank you so much Karen, I really really enjoyed listening and watching you show us all how to quilt as you go. Great tutorial too. I really really love ❤️ watching you because you make perfect sense. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags ❤❤❤❤
Thank you! Your video made quilting as you go method understandable. I had been frustrated on how to get the blocks put together neatly!
Dear Karen, thanks a lot for the video including tips and tutorial. I Heard about QAYG several Times, but it never caught my interest as much as you did with this easy to follow and understandable tutorial. The advantages of QAYG are perfect and also an easier start into quilting blankets for beginners. Regards from Germany Stephanie
I do this every Saturday, making quilts for indígenas newborns in my community.
I have been looking at information on a quilt as you go , but done on point . Have you ever made one on point? I have made quite a few standard ones but I want to make one on point.
Aloha from Kauai. Great video.
Hope you make it to Kapaia Stitchery. Their signature fabrics are beautiful - I use it mainly for backing.
Enjoy your trip.
I love details any textile places to visit
Love your method. You simplified QAYG down to something I understand and know I can do. Thanks for your videos they always have great information that is user friendly in them.
When you say check out the link below. I can’t seem to see if find that. By the way I Love all your videos and I find them so helpful for me. Thank you so much!
Been waiting for you to do a QAYG, I knew your video would be the most knowledgeable one out there. Will be rethink my scraps and looking forward to the next video. Thank you Karen for teaching us so much.
Thanks for making such a great video, I'm making several baby quilts with this method that will be keeping babies warm in an African orphanage.
Love the great, clear instructions. I never was thrilled with QAYG, but you made it seem intriguing ( and easy) so I think I’m going to have a go at it.
Start small. My first attempt was less than perfect.
I might have to try this with a quilt top I've already almost got done. It's been sitting in a tote for over 15 years because I knew my sewing machine couldn't handle all the fabric. 😊
Thank you karen. I am new to this art , but I love stitching.
excellent video 👏👏👏
I really want to try this. I am so very excited. I have a lot of grandkids that need new quilts. Thank you for sharing this with us.🎉😊❤
I'm not making a quilt but I needed a way to add length and width to a vintage quilt piece. I'm making a junk journal and my quilt piece is about one inch too narrow. I knew there had to be a way to add a border that would look natural and protect this most valuable piece of fabric. I plan to use part of the "quilt-as-you-go" method to add that much-needed height. Thank you for your wonderful video!
Take a look at the strip and flip method. It might work better th-cam.com/video/1_fnogQYxNo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=nMkSG2h0ATey37za
Great project. I have made several “quilt as you go scrappy quilts for charity. Enjoyed your video.
I have to say I was so please to see the quilt you put on your new mattress! I remembered your video about the quilt in the blue bag and how you met the challenge and finished the 4th of July quilt!
Love to watch you, very talented person. Great voice
❤ I now understand QAYG much better, this method will be on my to do list. I have a bin of different size strips, now they will have a purpose. Thanks for sharing.
Brilliant! ❤ This is the easiest clearest qayg I have seen. On my list now! Love using the left over quilt bat.
I’ll warn you that it is quite addictive
Ty! I started one of these quilts about a decade ago, and everything is all cut out and half of it is made so this refreshed my memory on how to finish. I plan to get it out of my ufo’s file and complete it. 🪡🧵✂️🇺🇸
WOW! I enjoyed learning this technique. Thanks for sharing!
This was a wonderful take on quilt as you go. looking forward to the next installment.
