2 Ways to Take Your 10" Square Quilt Block to a New Level

The square block quilt pattern is almost the easiest quilt. But don't forget there is still seam matching in this type of pattern and lots of it. Square Blocks are fairly easy to cut (unless you are me) and make a beautiful quilt because the square block lets the fabric design shine.
Today I am going to share a new way you can take your square block to a new level. 1 way is to use an old is new technique called sublimation and I also share an alternative for those who don't have a sublimation printer and don't want one.

"I don't understand if you tell me you don't have a stash." That cracked me up - I laughed so hard I had to replay it to catch what you said next. Great ideas for some very pretty quilts. Thanks for sharing.

Thank You for doing this demo! I have heard so much about sublimation, & had no idea what the heck people were talking about!!! I live in a small apartment, already overrun with my fabric stash, & other hobbies, so no chance of me starting yet another new hobby!! It was very interesting! I hope you’ll do a follow up after you have washed it.

I love your work, April. You have given me some more GreAT IDeaS for sublimation. For my granddaughter’s 18th birthday, I made her a memory quilt. Montana is a twin so I used lots of my favourite photos of her and her brother growing up and of course Mum and Dad. I bought myself a sublimation press, the most basic of Epson Printers with the Eco Tank and filled the fresh tanks straight out of the box with sublimation ink. I used white polyester cotton, 80/20, from our Spotlight Store. The photos were stunning on the fabric. (I washed some practice pieces many times to make sure they didn’t fade). I combined the photos with cotton fabric. It was all quilted by me on my domestic machine. Talk about a labour of love. Many hours of work went into it but I couldn’t be more happy with the results. My granddaughter and her family loved it. I figured I could always sell the press especially as I had the knowledge to share with a prospective buyer. That won’t be happening now as your video has given me further inspiration. Thank you so much. Might add I live in Australia just in case the product and store are unfamiliar.

I love sublimation crafts. Takes a while to get set up but it’s so worth it. As you have stated Miss April “stick around and you may learn something”…well thanks to you I didn’t know about the polyester fabric being the best choice. I’ve only sub’d on coffee mugs and kitchen towels. Sounds like I need to buy some poly fabric. 🥴😝 Have a marvelous weekend. 🤗🤗

Thank you. Did you notice the line down the middle? It is sublimated and there is a seam in the back. I pressed the image on it and it lightened the front of the shirt where the seam is. LOL. The moral of the story is drape the front of your shirt on the base of the heat press and don’t press with a seam. LOL

You are very creative! I have been thinking about getting a sublimation printer, but I already have so many things, and it is expensive, and I don't know if it would be worth it to just make things for my family. But that is a pretty quilt. I am definitely interested in seeing how you cut your fabric.

I believe Brother has come out with one that is more reasonably priced than the Sawgrass printer.
@petmomful2260
@petmomful2260 21 день назад
@@aprilscraftroom Yes, thanks. I looked at that one, but then I read that the Sawgrass one is so much better. So if I did spring for one, I think I would get the better one. However, I have had a 12 needle embroidery machine for years, and I use that often. So I can put flowers or anything on a quilt or t-shirt with that. Still thinking about it, tho. lol

While I think the actual printing came out nice… the appliqué (raw edge and straight stitching) unfortunately looks sloppy with a lack of cohesion in the design. While I realize that you are experimenting at some level (?) this looks like one big hot mess. Maybe leave some of printed as the 10 inch square and just stick to the flowers, save the wine for drinking for a crafty brain vacation…😂
