SUGGESTION: When matching the tree/hat section to the bottom section, put a pin in the top seam an poke it in the bottom seam to make sure they are properly aligned THEN place a second pin to the left of the first pin. When sewing the seam, stitch to the first pin, remove it and carefully stitch to the pinned seam, remove the pin and continue to stitch the seam.

I am new to quilting. Bought the kit and really appreciate the tutorial. Helped me with a few tricky spots. I am almost finished and it is so cute.

@blockpartyquiltco.354 8 месяцев назад

I am so glad that this helped you out!

@user-ej1zs8ec5f 11 месяцев назад

When you're working with so many bias edges on those triangles, I would strongly advise heavily starching them before sewing.

@blockpartyquiltco.354 11 месяцев назад

Great tip, I will try that next time. Thank you!

@PeleLua1 10 месяцев назад

If someone tries to starch those pieces now (after already being cut to size) they are going to shrink on them and nothing will match up. Been there, done that. Starching would need to happen before cutting out pieces. Best thing to help with the bias edges now would be to use a walking foot when sewing to reduce stretch.

@debbiedobbins6785 10 месяцев назад

Great job on the tutorial. Bought the pattern…the gnomes are soooo cute…now those triangles…yeah we don’t play so nice in the sandbox together. 😝Have always had trouble getting them to line up. But it’s such a cute table runner I just have to try it. Really appreciate the detailed tutorial. Have a terrific week. 😁

@blockpartyquiltco.354 10 месяцев назад

I used to have trouble with anything that wasn't a big square haha. The triangles take some practice but once you get the hang of it it's so fun to make them!

@sheilamcjilton6761 5 месяцев назад

I really appreciate this video, and how meticulous you are with measuring, pressing, etc. I am halfway finished, & am pretty new to quilting, so the triangles and gnome noses took a lot of time. Also, new to my machine, so it's been slow going. But I am glad I started now, so I'll have this for next Christmas!

@kathymurray3866 10 месяцев назад

Absolutely adorable. I don’t normally care for gnomes but this I really like! Thank you for your great tutorial!

@user-fx3qw4qd4w 4 месяца назад

Hi, I am new to sewing and bought this really cute table runner. Thank you for this wonderful video. I have used it many times. My question is that I recieved a large green print fabtic that I assume is the back to this runner. But no clear instruction to how this and batting ( not included) are attached to the front section. I am still sewing the red and green square border. Thank you for helping me. I have really enjoyed this experience!

@mystitchease 4 месяца назад

The large piece is your backing. Have you ever done quilting before? I recommend machine quilting this over tying it so that it lays flat on your table. And the batting that I used in it is a cotton/poly 80/20 blend.

@lindadittrich151 28 дней назад

Question: Did you remeasure after putting on the first border, before you added the outside colored borders?

@patcongine6604 10 месяцев назад

Adorable pattern. I ruined my cut pieces from the kit by starching but found fabric around the craft room to cut my own. I found it a tad tricky getting the 1/4" tips to work out. So needless to say Mr. Ripper and I had lots of date to fix. My only question is that by ironing towards the trees and hats I found the points rather thick. Would love to know how to retify that one.

@blockpartyquiltco.354 10 месяцев назад

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that that messed it up, if you're using starch I would definitely spray it on before you cut anything out.

@joycerebore525 6 месяцев назад

Found the video very helpful. Did you use white or gray thread for the quilting.

@blockpartyquiltco.354 6 месяцев назад

I use a gray thread that matched the background

@lindagalpin6269 10 месяцев назад

I bought the pattern with the pre-cut fabric from someone on Etsy. I started making it for a friend but the pattern is not very clear in some steps. In particular where they tell you to make the half square triangles using the 2 1/2 inch squares and then tell you to square the hst’s to 2 1/2 inches … that doesn’t work out right . The finished hst block is smaller. I’m glad I’m working with some friends who are more experienced than I am so they are helping me work it out.

@blockpartyquiltco.354 10 месяцев назад

I'm glad you brought this up, it came to my attention that we had a little typo on our pattern in this spot. The HST blocks should be squared to 2". Luckily the exact size of the square won't affect the way the whole pattern fits together.

@lindagalpin6269 9 месяцев назад

Fortunately I met someone at a quilt show who was selling this pattern and she also had issues with this pattern. She was able to advise me on how to resolve the problem. Glad to have had the help. Not sure I’d do this pattern again 🤨

@user-vr9rw1oz4k 6 месяцев назад

Do you have the link to finish the back?

@lorettahenderson8979 11 месяцев назад

Just lovely...if you starched the trees and hats, does that change the finished size?❤❤

@blockpartyquiltco.354 10 месяцев назад

I haven't tried it yet, but I think that is a great idea!

@PeleLua1 10 месяцев назад

Yes! If they are precut I would not starch. If you cut the shapes from fabric already starched that’s different. I’ve ruined quits before by trying to starch after cutting. Sewing with a walking foot will also help keep bias edges from stretching on you, and helps when you can’t starch.

@patcongine6604 10 месяцев назад

You will distort the pattern pieces that have already been cut. If cutting from yardage then yes you can starch/iron prior to cutting

@patcongine6604 10 месяцев назад

can you show a still shot of the top of the trees and hats from the back so I can make sure mine looks right?

@blockpartyquiltco.354 10 месяцев назад

That's a great idea! Next time I have a top sent to me to be quilted I will make sure to take a picture of it.

@TheresaBrown-xm4gk 3 месяца назад

You never mentioned putting batting in between the top and backing. Did you? 25:30 3/22/24

@user-nc9qs2sv5h 7 месяцев назад

Should I wash the precut pieces from the kit before sewing?

@blockpartyquiltco.354 7 месяцев назад

I don't recommend washing fabric before most quilting projects but especially not with precut kits. The fabric will fray and would become very difficult to work with.

@alliecreates6038 7 месяцев назад

Are the back and binding fabrics included in the kit?

@blockpartyquiltco.354 7 месяцев назад

Yes, it includes backing, binding and piecing fabrics

@user-vr9rw1oz4k 5 месяцев назад

Do you have a video to the back?

@marybedford2904 8 месяцев назад

What kind of batting did you use

@blockpartyquiltco.354 8 месяцев назад

For table runners I like to use flat batting - this is an 80/20 cotton/poly blend.

@SuperBettyboop23 10 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for sharing this awesome quilt gotta get it from my own ❣️✂️🪡🧵💗💕💓

@user-ds1nr2dk8l 8 месяцев назад

I am finished my quilt top and it is 19 inches … therefore the backing fabric is too small. Any idea where I might have gone wrong???

@blockpartyquiltco.354 8 месяцев назад

I'm not sure how that would have happened, but maybe check that your borders were cut to the proper size.

@donnadailey5062 11 месяцев назад

Hello :) I just purchased your Christmas Gnome table runner pattern, have read through the materials list, instructions - twice. Am I missing something in that the pattern lists the "triangles" (needed for Gnomes and trees) but doesn't specify the measurement for the triangles. I'm new to quilting, feel like I'm so old (destressing from a couple years of many trials) and instantly fell in love with this table runner I hope to make for my daughter and granddaughters... they'll so enjoy this fun gift (I hope.) Thank you for the tutorial, I'm going to watch it again and hope to determine the measurements I need. Kindest regards.

@kathleenegozi8955 11 месяцев назад

Just got the kit… very disappointed in the background fabric… it is gray with no snowflakes!

@blockpartyquiltco.354 11 месяцев назад

Hi Kathleen, We offer two different kit options one has the gray fabric without snowflakes and many of the prints are less busy and then we offer the more busy prints including the gray with snowflakes as seen in the video. Both kits are available with the link in the video.

@blockpartyquiltco.354 11 месяцев назад

Hi Donna, There is a template that has the measurements for the triangles and the noses that is part of the pattern. If you can't find the template please email me at Brooklin@blockpartyquiltco.com and I can help you out with that

@tinaandersen8910 11 месяцев назад

How do you know which kit is which. I want the one with the snowflakes.

@mcv8449 10 месяцев назад

There’s a picture in the listing that shows which is option A & option B. It would be nice if the 2 options were named something obvious (plain & busy? IDK) to make it easier to tell which is which. At the very least, a mention in the description to “See photo for fabric options” would really help.

That's good to know! I don't usually use them where the ink will be visible, like I showed on the demo using them for half square triangles is perfect for me.
