I love you dog and cat. You would have a ball in Janet's Fabrics. She has many beautiful cheater tops. Some people like to put a cheater top on the back of their quilt to make a reversible quit. I love your beautiful little baby quilt. Wonderful idea.
Would love to see a video on ruler work! The quilt today turned out really cute. Would also be interested in the appearance of the quilt after washing. :)
I LOVE cheater clothe! It’s the bomb. There is also a pattern from Fabric Cafe that uses one large piece in the middle. You may want to check that out. Keep up the cra cra work!
One of my goals is to get proficient in machine quilting. I think a quilt from this fabric would be a great wY to practice and learn and I will have a nice gift or charity quilt at the end!
Nothing wrong with this kind of cheating! Sheer perfection! Love your videos, April. Look forward to them and so happy when I see one pop up to view! Both quilts are so pretty! Thanks for sharing your quilting life!
I stored a spray basted a full size quilt rolled up for over a year. Came back to it and quilted it with no problem. Didn't even iron it! Came out amazing.
The fabric is called cheater fabric. Many quilters put it on the back of the quilt. It turned out fabulous. I always enjoy your tutorials. Looking forward to the next one. I always learn something.
I am a very beginner, great to know there are options out there to help me build a project, skills and finish with confidence. With that said, I love your educational, fun and light hearted videos. Thank you!
I love those quilt tops 💖 I found a couple of them and made 2 baby quilts few years ago. I don't really see them anymore. I love the colors of your quilt tops they are beautiful 😊💖
from Gerry- I use pool noodles to store and to put my layers together, one noodle for each layer. It helps me keep the kinks out in my small space. God bless.
I've made a couple of small quilts like this and I love them. Thrilled to see you do a vid of the process! It's really fun to do. Thanks for making me feel justified. lol
I agree with Tracy. The gauze should hold up well. I used gauze diapers for my kids. They were washed hundreds of times: every day for about a year and a half. ❤
I love that baby quilt! It's also wonderful to use this type of fabric to practice FMQ! I'm waiting on a quilter's table and ready to practice practice practice, as I am a total beginner but for now, I'm the queen of broken needles, so I hope I can get the hang if it with my domestic machine. I'm a huge fan of ruler work and of course, a huge fan of yours! Much love!!! ❤
I have that first fabric from Hobby Lobby too! I am currently making a bear, like the memory bears out of some of it and then I'm going to make a baby quilt to go with it, so I'll have a gift ready to go! Thanks for the idea about gauze for the backing, I would have thought it would be too thin, but worth a try!
I love it! It’s absolutely precious, and the fabric at the end gave me an eyegasm!!! YES! Please do a tutorial!!! As always, you’re so chill with the babies wandering! I need to practice meditation or something. My babies would have me so on edge, LOL! Thank you for this video. I’m learning so much from you and you’re just a joy. Thank you! ❤️
When I use spray basting I make the sandwich first so I know it is all lined up. Then I fold back half of the top, spray, unfold, do the second half, flit it over and repeat for the backing. I’ve started using pool noodles from the dollar and a quarter store to store quilts, it helps reduce creases.
