I made a quilt about 20 years ago. I wouldn't call it vintage. Some of the squares have come unsewed. It's the oddest thing. I had an idea of adding something over the damaged areas. A big star maybe. I think it would add more interest to the quilt. Your solutions are very helpful to the new quilters. Thank you.
wow! Perfect timing for me to find this video. Thank you for the clear instructions. I am making a gauze throw and hand stitching it. I am addicted to hand quilting and decided to try some curves!
Brilliant tutorial!!! Especially that homemade template and explaining how to know where to start to avoid having to tie off all the time. Thank you so much. I've seen baptist fan quilting patterns in books, but nobody has explained how to sew one's way through the pattern. Thank you very much for such clear instructions - I now feel this is possible🎉😍
Great tutorial. A few weeks ago I purchased a Baptist Fan ruler similar to the one you made in acrylic, I love it and I'm now going to follow your instructions and make one with your markings. Thank you for a great and informative video.💜
Thank you for sharing this. I was really starting 2 despair & think there was nothing I could do,which just made me want to cry looking at this quilt...All the black & white squares are torn or falling apart (becuz my mom kept using them too often & not being very careful/gentle w/them & then sticking them in the washer & dryer afterwards too often 2. These are quilts that i love,but she doesn't really care that muchvv about,becuz they're from my dad's side of the family) & the batting is showing..I'm not even a quilter,& I just recently started learning how 2 crochet & loom knitting,but I have wanted 2 learn quilting for a long time,just don't think I can afford the materials like as a hobby rn at least..Irregardless,I have a few books on quilting & know how to sew by hand,& have a few kinds of fabric for sewing(& will buy some batting),so I really wanted 2 see what if anything could be done 2 salvage this quilt b4 it's too late..I really am so greatful that you made this video & can't thank u enuf! Will sub & keep a look out 4 more of your videos as well now..
I just discovered your channel only to find out you’re not making videos anymore. You are such an excellent teacher! Your instructions are unhurried, precise, and easily understood. I’d love to see more instructional videos from you. Merry Christmas.
I’m wondering if you ever use the big stitch binding on the front of a quilt, especially one that you quilted with big stitches? I am enjoying your channels and love the hand quilting tips. ❤ Thank you.
As well, no one discusses batting, the different qualities, and how you get those nice little bumps in the quilts. I keep looking for true beginner hand stitched quilting videos and still not found. And how to choose the backing? What criteria, what are the differences and the consequences of choices.
I finally found the clearest explanation and demonstration for the adjustment of the pressure foot on fabric. You are a great teacher. Keep up the good work.
I’m totally going to get into big stitching. It’s so cute looking. I do want to know where you got your cactus fabric. 😍 and I would love to see the whole front and backing of this quilt. I’m completing new to quilting. I just started my first, QAYG quilt. I’m probably going to add some big stitches to some or all of the pieces. 🤓
