Download my FREE "Cottage Twirl" Quilt Pattern👇 Hi! I'm Miriam, and I'm dedicated to spreading the joy and fun surrounding quilting and creativity! I hope you join me on my many quilting adventures, whether we are making small quilted items and entire quilts. You will find free quilt patterns, quilting tutorials, and lots of quilting tips and tricks in my videos.
Thank you Miriam. I’m making a 9 patch now that I am going to attempt qayg. Not making promises, but I’m going to try. I love your podcast and will visit your website soon. ❤
Well, I am so happy to have found your great video. I have made a baby quilt and a throw quilt and pinning made me crazy, especially when I was quilting and had to move pins! Yay Elmer's! Are you a teacher by any chance - you are terrific! Thanks for sharing your expertise! Cheers from Minnesota!
I just finished a quilt with Elmer’s glue basting. It worked beautifully. I ironed the layers together and I had no problem with shifting or hardness. Walked away from stitching it because I got busy with other matters. Have you ever tried other brands of school glue, basically store brands? If so do they have the same results? Thank you . I enjoy your channel
Yay! I’m so glad you tried the glue basting and liked it! 👏🏻💖 I haven’t tried other brands, but I have heard from several other people who have tried other brands and they aren’t as easy to wash out. That’s why I ONLY recommend Elmer’s. Other brands have slightly different formulas and ya just never know how it’ll work.
@StitchObsessed this will really help me. It is so expensive to send it to a long arm. I think I will be able to do this myself. Thank you so much! I will be in touch!
@@brendacarlisle9216 yay! I’m so glad you’re going to give the spiral quilting a try! It’s a lot of fun! 👏🏻 and that is my Cozy Picnic quilt pattern! It’s available now in PDF or physical form! You can check it out here: stitchobsessed.myshopify.com/collections/all
I enjoy learning about the history of quilts. What do you suggest for a medium loft batting ? I am not fond of flat quilts. I like a little body to it. Also I inherited a hand pieces quilt that is over 60 years old and few years ago. The fabrics are so pretty. I purchased wool batting to hand quilt it and it is like butter. I enjoy working with it. It is still a work in progress as I work full time and usually work on it during the cooler months. I am almost done with it though. Thank you for your videos. I am really enjoying them. 😊
So if I'm working on a larger quilt and using pool noodles to manage it, do I need to let each section dry before I roll up the quilt or can I still roll it up as I go and let it dry rolled up on the noodle?
Great video answering all the questions! I've been using the glue on some smaller projects and so far, it's a winner!!! BTW, your hand quilting looked just great! We all start somewhere, right?
Hi Miriam! I can’t wait to try this out! Question: when your stencil dries and you join your section up with a section you already quilted, how does that look on the quilt stitching? Is the joining spot obvious because you had to backstitch? Thanks! (Hope this makes sense!)
Nice.love that you were in your shed. I was wondering if you were doing the same applique pattern several time, can you stack your fabric? How many layers can be done at once?
Omg, is that Strawberry Shortcake on your tshirt?? I had her when I was a kid back in the 80s - spent a lot of time sniffing her (the neighbours probably thought someone was sniffing something else lol). Omg, memories are great sometimes 🍓
If your suffering from carpal tunnel, sleep with that brace on, its a far better alternative to pain or surgery. Thank you for this video and the download. 😊
HA! I was wondering if anyone was going to notice that! I accidentally left those in the file when I put it in the software. 🥴 I'll probably just stitch over it!
Well as always you sure did your research. This reminds me of when I got my first Cricut. 😊 I bet you'll get a lot of use of this ..... really neat! Don't stop working on the alphabet pattern though, I really need it!!😂
LOL! Don't worry, I'm working on it! I just got all my fabrics cut the sample quilt, and I've got several people testing the pattern in the next couple of weeks!🥴
Wow This is so cool!!! I did not think about using this to cut fabric!! I can use it to cut those tiny EPP Pieces or applique! Man my Christmas List just got longer!! LOL. Birthday in a couple months maybe I can persuade hubby!! LOL🤣🤣
Wow! Thank you! I've always wondered how these work! So much easier than the sticky mat business with the Cricut. Also, love your humor! Don't want the kitty to lose a tail! 😂
It is! I have a Silhouette machine and it was a nightmare trying to cut fabric with it! This was SO much better, plus I can use it for so many different craft projects!
The wreath is so cute! I can totally see how you could make a super cute baby quilts? (Think Animal Parade by Cheri Leffler). Oh the possibilities lol! ❤
