High everyone. Pulling this video together took me a bit longer than I thought it would. It was fun playing with Mt Scrapmore again. I hope you enjoy making them as much as I did. If anyone is wondering where I am walking...it's the Bruce Trail at the Fruitland trail.
Great video as always...you inspire me to use up my scraps...yr videos are so great in explaining ..easy to follow you and love how you go out of the box in thinking on block construction. .thank you!! Always ready for yr next video!!! Oh...love the outdoors!!!
Hello, love your videos and really loved the forest background. In fact, I found this one so much easier to watch. Took me a few minutes to realise why, because there weren't really bright lights flashing up in your glasses in this one! The other ones trigger me because the bright video lighting in your sewing studio acts like a strobe light and gives me a bit of a headache. Perhaps you could use a diffuser? Thanks for listening!
You’re my favorite go-to videos for quilting. I collect everybody’s scraps as well as my own. Even tiny shreds end up in cat beds. No waste at my house.
I love the fact that you talk slowly enough for me to absorb what you're explaining. I can't tell you how many quilting videos I've tried watching in which the presenter is talking so fast that I can't keep up with (or learn) what that person is explaining. And I always thought I talked fast!! Bless you for what you do for those of us who are trying to learn the art of quilting!!
Thanks so much for creating your videos! I know how much work it is! Really appreciate it. Oh,,, I've made 36 string blocks so far and the pile of scraps must be having babies because it's not diminishing! LOL
I was not taught how to make quilts, I only knew about the fancy one's with all the patterned sewing once they were put together. They were beautiful quilts, just too much work for me. My first quilt was made using all the jeans my kids and I grew out of and whatever neighbors gave me and created what I called 'drag around quilts'. Was tired of my kids taking my blankets and quilts outside to make their forts, especially the blankets that were fuzzy and everything stuck to them and were a pain to get clean. I used blocks of denim from the old clothes, the fuzzy blankets in place of batting and a heavy weight sheet for the other side of the quilt. There were made to be slightly larger then the top of a twin bed and I made a pillow to go with them. They were easy to roll up and take with you, could be used for travel, sleep overs and the every popular backyard forts, quite literally designed to be dragged anywhere. The kids loved them because it was denim and the sheeting meant nothing stuck to them and clean up was a breeze. Was also a great way to hide the ugly looking fuzzy blankets. They were so popular family and friends were asking for them.
@@JustGetitDoneQuilts I am in the process of making one for my grand daughter and will take photo's before I give it to her. The other quilts are in different places with family and friends around the country since that was over 20 yrs ago and most of us have moved. In a bizarre turn, my daughters dog kept chewing on hers so will be making one for her as well, just not sure yet I can get both done in time for Christmas.
I'm in Victoria, BC and just joined the Victoria Quilt Guild. I have been sewing for a long time but I'm just getting into quilting. I love all the blocks you've chosen for the scrap busting. VQG had their annual Christmas sale at the beginning of November and I saw a couple of quilts there that I just fell in love with!!! Both were scrappy. One was just scrappy blue squares about 2 inches in size and you had to really look to see the ring of slightly lighter blues. It was absolutely lovely!! The other one was the braid you showed. It was in 1 inch finished strips and each joined braid was about 3 or 4 inches wide and it was just gorgeous!! I am going to give the braid a try as a table runner for Christmas. I have lots of Christmas scraps from making aprons and ornaments. Thanks for the inspiration!!
My name is Laura and I have a scrap problem...I love them and can't bear to throw away even the smallest piece. I keep 3/4" or more. I make lots of scrap quilts and love using little pieces. My problem now is that other people now know that I use all the little pieces and several people have started giving me their scraps. At first this was a wonderful gift. I love pulling out each little piece, ironing it, sorting it, and packing it away in my elaborate system. As time has gone on, I am realizing that I am not getting several other quilters'scraps plus my own and I am spending more time processing scraps than I am actually sewing! I realize this is a good problem to have, but I need more hours in the day! No matter how many I use, the pile keeps growing! Thanks for all the fun ideas for using them!
This happened to me too! I love scraps!! And I love small projects!! At one point I had 6 huge bins crammed full!!! I finally had to say, " I am so grateful for the offer, but I just cant take any more until I empty at least one bin! If someone else wants them please pass them on. Or I can let you know when I have room for more". Thankfully no ones feeling were hurt. Every so often now, I get, " my scraps are piling up again, do you have room for them or should I call preschools and see if they want them?".
Great video. I look forward to your videos! I love your scrap ones...the stash ones...ih and I now press not iron. Thanks so very much for taking the time to teach me, a 71 year old quilter who learned how to quilt a year ago from TH-cam.
Here I am vacationing in Italy and instead of venturing out with friends to explore at night, I’m here in my room watching you, ha ha. I fly home soon and will be able to start sewing again - I’ll make the string quilt 😊
I just want to tell you how much I enjoy alllll of your videos!! I had a dry spell for a while where I didn't want to touch my sewing, I put everything away and then I found your videos a few months ago and I got it back out. My sewing is my therapy and I needed it. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. You are so down to earth, friendly and your teaching style is great!
1/ STRING BLOCKS 2/ DIAGONAL STRINGS 3/ SCRAPPY L block .... 4/ scrappy log cabin 5 / scrappy court house steps 6/ scrappy braid ... similar technique as FRENCH BRAID quilts ... love it 7
Thank you for executing such high production values in your videos. The graphics of titles, the clarity of your examples and arrangements of pattern options are so helpful. Thank you. Great job.
Just Get it Done Quilts But commentor is right: I know you lament sometimes about not being a filmmaker, but you are really good at the demonstration/teaching thing. I think your production value is very high. That’s a very difficult thing to do and we thank you.
Thanks for all the inspiration. My favorite scrap block is a string with diagonal strips with a white center. I make them 10" square using a paper towel for foundation. So easy and fun.
Mount Scrapmore Love It. How about a Mount Scrapmore day. Your none quilting friends would think you finally have got away from quilting and are doing something healthy like walking but you could be hidden away sewing...lol
You are one of my very favorite teachers! Your tutorials are so well explained and your ideas are wonderful! Thank you for sharing your talents with us.😊❤️ I love each of these blocks.😍
Your scrap videos are so inspiring, my brain explodes with ideas to use strips, blocks, HSTs! I love the restful, organized way you address such a potentially chaotic subject. Keep up the beautiful presentations 😊
Thank you, thank you. You are the Quilting Queen. After painstakingly sorting my stash by hue.. ...again. What a time suck it's been and life is too short. Your suggestions of simplifying the organization by sorting by value or cool, warm, black, white, makes so much sense, and allows more time for the fun parts like actually quilting.Your scrap tutorials are wonderful and the more you make related to scraps, the better.
I forgot your name . Is it Karen? I can't wait to get home from work to see more of your videos and sense of humour. It makes my day. Just to say Thankyou so much for all your trouble making these informative videos which lift the spirit of women all over the world. I am learning so much.
It's 5:30 in the morning. I was just about to go to sleep, but now I'm watching this. I normally don't keep 'strings' but I might start because these are some good ideas. Edit: And I'd love a quilt as you go video from you.
Yes yes yes 😁 QAYG would be wonderful!! You are one of the two most instructive quilting channels I watch, so I jump on anything you post. Could you show us how to QAYG a pieced block (like windmills, HSTs, log cabin, etc.)? I'm making nine patch blocks for my daughter's full-size heritage quilt, and I only have a Brother home machine to quilt it on 😅 Thank you for making all these wonderful, easy to follow videos!!
I could watch your videos all day... hot cup of tea and my mac book. : ) Thanks for all of your efforts to help us sewing lasses. Figuring out my own Mt. Scrapmore is so much more challenging than I had imagined. Thanks for making it easier for me to get it done! Love from a Michigander.
I am glad I found your channel but now I cannot quit watching (cannot get things done around the house.) Since I am a beginner, all this information is very important to me. You make quilting look so easy and fast.
Thank you for all those scraps subject videos they are really so intersteting and I learn a lot. Your explanations are crystal clear and I really enjoy your way of talking, as english is not my prima langage, I can understand you very well and it's awsome !
You were very knowledgeable and it’s obvious you’ve been quilting a lot longer than me. I’m self-taught and have a little to show for my work because I have given it all away; well almost all. I can’t wait for your next video, will look forward to it.
I made a massive dent into my my scrapmore I cut my scraps into 1.5 inch strips and joined together. However within that strip were other strips no longer than 2 to 3 inches. I made 10 inch blocks and rotated every second block. Quilt was 9 x 9 blocks. As i like bright colours it is a bright quilt. It was designed to be able to be put in the back of our SUV for impomtu picnic etc or when we are at soccer. The whole family loves it. Thanks again you are an amazing lady I love watching your videos. ❤ from 🇦🇺
As a quilting novice, I am so grateful for your videos, just for all the knowledge you pass along in an understandable way. But, watching this during lockdown time, your voice is sooooo soothing, and I feel like I have friend over for a chat and a cuppa! Thank you SO much for being out there!
Hi Karen! My scrap boxes are getting too full again. I did make a couple quilts with scrappy string idea. Worked out well. I used foundation fabric the first time. Now I made a cardboard template which works well. I needed to review your ideas. Thank you. Between yourself and Brenda in Edmonton, I'm trying to reduce Mt. Scrapmore. Marion in Oregon
Quilt as you go tutorial please! I try to toss any scrap smaller than 1.5". It's a tough thing to do if it's a favorite fabric. I keep a bin nearby to toss them in. (It's overflowing)
High everyone. Pulling this video together took me a bit longer than I thought it would. It was fun playing with Mt Scrapmore again. I hope you enjoy making them as much as I did. If anyone is wondering where I am walking...it's the Bruce Trail at the Fruitland trail.
I may never make a quilt but I love your videos, especially when I am homesick for Ontario. :) Thanks for getting them done!
I will take your one inch strips. I like those very thin strips in between wider ones, it just adds something to a strippy block.
Great video as always...you inspire me to use up my scraps...yr videos are so great in explaining ..easy to follow you and love how you go out of the box in thinking on block construction. .thank you!! Always ready for yr next video!!! Oh...love the outdoors!!!
It’s cool to see the Fibonacci sequence outside of math class starting around 4:30

Thank you for executing such high production values in your videos. The graphics of titles, the clarity of your examples and arrangements of pattern options are so helpful. Thank you. Great job.
Thank you for noticing. I often am jealous of videos where they just stand there and talk...it would be so much easier to make
Just Get it Done Quilts But commentor is right: I know you lament sometimes about not being a filmmaker, but you are really
good at the demonstration/teaching thing. I think your production value is very high. That’s a very difficult thing to do and we thank you.
