I really like this rail fence variation, it is eye catching. For those of you worried about wasting fabric. Then don't! Use the scraps for a creative boarder or a small scrappy project. Some quilter creatively add them to their quilt backing. Just think of it as an opportunity to be creative!!! I also have to say you did a great job explaining how to use the different rulers. Thank you!
We love your outlook on using the scraps! Thanks for watching :)
Love everything from shabby fabrics. The tutorials are great and appreciate the free downloads. The delivery on purchased items is amazing and the quality of items is great. And Jen you are a wonderful teacher. So patient. Thank you for all the great tutorials.

Very clever!
Thank you for watching! Stay safe! ~Leah
Great video. Love the ruler demo I can’t imagine the waste with the cost of fabric. Will have to work on that! Maybe put them together and border with the black to make the block bigger. Great block
We're happy you like this block! We do tend to use our scraps for our smaller projects such as the Pocket Prayers that we make. Thanks for watching! 💖 -Michelle
Love it...hope you do something with the cut offs...
Glad you enjoy this tutorial! Thanks so much for watching!! We love using our scraps for smaller projects like our pocket squares! -Michelle

We have the same taste. . I love Maywood studio. . I really like this pattern!. Thanks!!
You have great taste! ;) Maywood Studio always makes such beautiful fabrics, we love to use their designs. - Morgan
Back at ya!!.. :)
not only is the block pretty but i love the fabric. i'll have to think of what to do with the scraps because i can't bear to throw that much fabric away. i'm sure i can come up with something. is there any special tips to quilting with flannel? i actually never even thought of using it for a quilt. thanks for another great tutorial.
So happy that you love the block and the fabric!! Share your project with us when you find something fun to make with your scraps!
How pretty! I wonder if the left over bits could fit into the it somehow in place of the black square! I will look for a pattern and perhaps I can find out. Love the flannel fabric!
What a great idea! Thank you for sharing! - Sophie
I know it is 2018 but I just started watching U-tubes and I really like this quilt block
Welcome to TH-cam - we are happy you found us :) Thank you for watching!
I was a bit disappointed to see you didn’t suggest using the discarded triangles for smaller blocks
Muito bonito
Muito obrigado
This is a beautiful quilt! If I wanted to replace the black with white and use a different fabric in the collection for my border and binding how much would I need of those 2 fabrics?
Great question! You can find all of the fabric requirements here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/Assets/Downloads/SpinningRailFence_forDownload.pdf
Really love this quilt. Does it have to be made with flannel? Thank you for sharing everything you do.
You can use ANY fabric you'd like but our kit is only available in flannel :)
Hi there Jennifer,
I was watching your tutorial on "The Spinning Rail Fence" block and thought while you were measuring the height of the three jelly rolls, how bad the Jelly Rolls I've been getting lately. The Batiks are the worst I've seen. The pre-cuts seemed to be so much better years ago. It's sad, but Oh Well, looks like a fat quarter bundle is going to leave the shelf. Love all your tutorials. Jan. p.s. enjoy your youth while it lasts. L.O.L.

Thank you for your feedback Jan-Maree! Merry Christmas! 🎄~Leah
I love all of your kits and tutorials and have enjoyed buying and making them with your videos. I'm definitely going to have to buy that ruler and make this one (and I'm not a big gadget person, but I always get the recommended acrylic templates and rulers for the kits I buy from you and appreciate the convenient recommendations below the items when I'm shopping). I wanted to see if you can give me any guidance on the color placement of the strips for best flow in the blocks. I really like the placement of the black strips and it seems on many of the blocks, the ajoining strip set has a white butting up to the black. The color placement makes the blocks absolutely stunning! Any advice I could follow to get a result similar to yours here? I am going to see if you have any kits for this project. The black background is a great choice for the jelly roll strips. Thank you for another great video. :-)
We're very happy that you enjoy our fun projects! Thank you very much for your kind words. This may help you in color placement- Jen did a video a while back on Colorsense: www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/351/learn-color-sense-with-jennifer-bosworth-of-shabby-fabrics -Michelle
Sure wished this fabric came in Cotten. I do t care to work with flannel. It’s one of the prettiest fabrics out there.
Thank you so much! We have other collections designed by Shabby Fabrics in cotton if you'd like to see:
Welcome Home Collection One: www.shabbyfabrics.com/Maywood-Studio/Welcome-Home-Collection-One.aspx

Great video. This would stitch up faster if you did it on an angle. Then you could use full black blocks except for the edges.
Thanks for the great tips and for watching :)
Yes, I agree....setting it on point would be much faster.
Te felicito por tus hermosos trabajos pero me gustaría comprender ya que el idioma es lo que me detiene hacer ciertas explicaciones suyas y quisiera saber dónde venden los rollos de telas largas ya cortadas
¡Gracias por ver! Puede encontrar estos rollos largos (tiras de 2,5 pulgadas, rollos de jalea) en la mayoría de las tiendas de acolchado, incluida nuestra tienda en línea. Enviamos internacionalmente!
Déjame saber si tienes alguna otra pregunta. - Morgan
You could leave the background colour as a square and just use triangles at the edge
Great suggestion!! -Michelle
Love the quilt but would have liked to see you actually sew on the triangles. That can be tricky. Where do you line up since the triangle goes beyond the square ?
Great question! You will line up the center of the triangle with the center of the side you're sewing it to. You can do this a few ways - the first, is to measure on both pieces and mark the centers. The second is folding the piece in half and marking the center! Both are accurate and quick, it's just your preference :)
In instructions, the setting triangles are mentioned as 7.5". Is that correct? The 'inner' squares are 6.5" if I heard correctly. Thank you
You can see the cutting instructions on the free download at this link: www.shabbyfabrics.com/Assets/Downloads/SpinningRailFence_forDownload.pdf
Thanks for watching!! :)
Thanks for your question, and sorry we didn't clarify this for you sooner! In the video, Jen instructs you to cut your corner setting triangles to 7" squares. If you'd like a little wiggle room, you can cut them to 7.25" squares. Either measurement will work for this quilt.
Hope that helps!
- Morgan
Silly Question... but what about all the little triangles you cut off.. those are beautiful. Is there a way to use them? Or a project that uses them?
Not a silly question at all! We always save scraps, and if you collection enough of these triangles I'm sure you could find a project to use them in! - Morgan
A great block but what do you do with the leftovers. A shame to throw away.
Jim
You could incorporate them into the border. Even make the same blocks with black all the way around.
Korie Wilson I like that idea!
You could incorporate them in your backing.
Linda Gentle i
AWESOME I AM A BEGAINER AND THIS IS EASY WITH INSTRUCTIONS AND VERY PRETTY ....TO MAKE A FULL SIZE QUILT HOW MANY JELLY ROLLS AND ORTHER FABIC WOULD IT TAKE ...DO YOU HAVE FULL INSTROUNCTION ON A FULL SIZE QUILT
Unfortunately, we do not do custom measurements/ kits, and without knowing the dimensions of the quilt you would like to make, or how you are aligning your blocks we are unable to determine the amount of fabric needed to complete your quilt. Here is a link to the Spinning Rail Fence Kits we have available on our website at this time. www.shabbyfabrics.com/Search.aspx?k=Spinning+Rail+Fence If you have any questions please let me know as I am always happy to help! :) -Kyla
@@ShabbyFabrics thanks anyway
Just love this quilt! Any chance fabric is still available?
We're happy you enjoy this pretty project! We have sold out of the Welcome Home Flannel collection, but you can shop our current selection of Flannel prints here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/c1439 -Michelle
Now 2021 and just found this video. I’m wondering if you have a project for all those beautiful triangles you Cut off
We do not but that is a great suggestion!
- Beth
YOU DID EXSPLANE IT ALL THANKS
Thank you for the wonderful feedback. It is always appreciated to help us on future tutorials. -Kyla
How much backing fabric is needed?
Great question! You will need 3 3/4 yards of fabric for the backing. You can see all of the fabric requirements on the free download: www.shabbyfabrics.com/Assets/Downloads/SpinningRailFence_forDownload.pdf
like the block not the colours. What do you do with the corners that were cut off?
You can do anything you want with them! Make a pillow, create a border, a table runner, a scrappy quilt! Anything you can think of!
What is the width of the border and how wide do you cut it.
We cut four 5 1/2" x LOF strips for the border. Here's the free download with measurements and instructions:
www.shabbyfabrics.com/Assets/Downloads/SpinningRailFence_forDownload.pdf
Let me know if you have any other questions. - Morgan
Are the fence rail triangles waste, or can you use them for another block?
Hello Dan! The triangles do end up being scrap fabric. You can most certainly use them for another block! We'd love to see what you come up with. - Yajaira
@@ShabbyFabrics Wouldn't it be easier and less wasteful to snowball each of the corners with the black and then sew corner to corner and then a half-inch to the outside giving you the extra HSTs instead of waste?
Can you use the pieces that you cut off to make another block ?
We tend to use our scraps for our smaller projects such as the Pocket Prayers that we make. Thanks for watching! 💖 -Michelle
Could you please tell me what the dimensions of the quilt are please and thank you...
This quilt finishes to 59" x 72" :) You can see all of the dimensions and fabric requirements on the free download: www.shabbyfabrics.com/Assets/Downloads/SpinningRailFence_forDownload.pdf
on this.
quilt how big is the square supposed to be before using the 9 inch ruler
Hi Sandra - Your larger square should measure 12.5". Hope this helps! -Michelle
What can you do with the extra pieces that you cut off? Can you show us?
You can put them together for a border, you can create a scrappy quilt with them, or you can make a runner with them. The possibilities are endless! :) Unfortunately, we do not have further instruction as we did not continue further with our leftover pieces. If you have any further questions please let me know as I am always happy to help. Happy Quilting! :) -Kyla
@@ShabbyFabrics thank you. I love your tutorials. I watch every day. I haven't had a chance to use the material you sent to me for Daughter's of the Nile here in Rapid City/ Deadwood chapter but sure do appreciate you sending it.

Is this fabric still available?
We do have some of the fabrics available still. You can find those on our website here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/Search.aspx?k=welcome+home+flannel
Let me know if you have any other questions! - Morgan
Where in North Idaho do you have your store?
Hi Bylinda! That's a great question! Our store is only available online, but our warehouse is located in Northern Idaho, so everything ships from there. We do not have a physical location accessible to customers. All of our products are available on our new website: www.shabbyfabrics.com 💖 -Michelle
What did you do with the pieces you cut off?
Great question! We love using our scraps for smaller projects, like our Pocket Prayer Quilts! -Michelle
What did you do with all the fabric you cut off?
Hi Caroline- We love using our scraps for smaller projects, like our Pocket Prayer Quilts! -Michelle
Where do I get a 9X9 inch ruler
Hi Cheryl - You can find our 9" Square ruler here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/p57035/spinning-possibilities-ruler 💖 -Michelle
I was a bit disappointed you did not suggest using the discarded triangles to make a small block.🤔
We completely understand. Even though we didn't verbally address it during this video, we do recommend and use our scraps for smaller projects like our Pocket Prayers. Thanks for watching! 🌷 -Michelle
Did I miss something? There are quite a few triangles left over! What did you do with them?
Hello Joan! If you bought the kit from us we always like to give extra fabric so that there is enough room for error. - Yajaira
I cannot find ANY FREE patterns on this site
Here are all of our free patterns: www.shabbyfabrics.com/Free-Downloads-W4C258.aspx

My jelly roll only gave me 15 blocks. What happened? Did I get a poor jelly roll? Does this happen often? So disappointed and a lot of wasted fabric beside what came off the patches.
We are so sorry to hear you only go 15 bocks. It is hard to say what happened. The Jelly Roll definitely should have provided enough fabric if there were the correct number of strips! So sorry for any inconvenience
I did not get the full 20 blocks from the jelly roll either. Seems there were only 40 strips. However, I did use my extra from the border and setting fabrics to make the 2 more 6.5 x6.5 squares that I needed (obviously I am frugal with my cutting so it was the jelly roll sorry to say but I did get 19.5 blocks from the jelly roll)
What's the finished size of this quilt?
That's a great question! The answer will depend on how many blocks you have and how wide your borders are. We estimate the finished blocks to measure approximately 12.5" finished. Thanks for watching!! 💖 -Michelle
@@ShabbyFabrics ok thank u!!
My eye caught something....looks like once you have your fancy 9 inch block, you could just cut 9 inch black blocks and sew them on the outside of the fancy blocks instead of cutting all of those triangles. Yes?
Yes if you sewed fancy block then black block in diagonal strips to get this layout and those setting triangles on the ends of the rows. I have made similar quilts that way. Less bias to deal with.
Thank you for your help Pika! Happy Holidays! ❄~Leah
Hopefully Pika's comment was helpful! Merry Christmas! 🎄~Leah
Sorry but you don’t have to make the block. Just move on to something else. Negativity isn’t necessary. Thank you for the time and help you give.
Thanks so much for your support and kind words :)
The design is beautiful, but the way the pieces put together is not very efficient. There is an easy way to have the same result without wasting so much fabric. I am surprised that such a talented and experienced artist is doing it.
Thank you for your feedback. -Michelle
Too much waist for me :-/
Add it to the scrap bin for all of those fun scrappy projects! :) - Morgan
I love your ideas....but the adds for products is interrupting your teaching. Why not just list products you used.
We like to show the product and tell why we're using it and how it's useful. Otherwise, people might not know what it is or why we recommend it. - Morgan
How manybtimesxate you going to mention how much you Love thecdpinning Matt? Sell Sell Sell filers,Matt's??? Very repetive video for me.
Thank you for sharing. We will take this into consideration for our future tutorials. - Yajaira
Too much wasted fabric.
