As a dress maker this would be an awesome way to remember dresses, pants, and shirts I’ve made for my kids. Clothes wear out but this would last almost forever. That’s why I got into quilting.

Best video yet. You two had so much fun as though you were testing the waters. I too save my selvages..don't have enough. I could see umbrellas, Christmas Trees, BDay cake, etc. The ruler is cool w/secondary markings. This was so great & fun to watch.

I’ve taught children to sew, both hand sewing and machine sewing. A machine with a 50% speed function is really helpful for children learning to use a sewing machine, as it reduces anxiety that the machine will get away This is FANTASTIC. I’m so impressed with this project. It’s PERFECT to teach children to sew straight lines without having to juggle two bits of floppy fabric to sew straight seams. I’m convinced it’s a great first machine sewn quilt for kids to make. There’s lots of low stress learning fun to this project: it encourages creativity and supports decision making in choosing fabric and colour arrangement. It’s an activity that further facilitates fine motor skill development. Kids too young to use a rotary cutter can trim with scissors because there’s a cut guide. I think it’s a good project to introduce kids to safely using a hot iron (I would have them press each wedge at the end, rather than press each strip). This project will support children piecing units because the extra density means the fabric being seamed isn’t so floppy and unmanageable. At the end the child has a quilt that they have made themselves or that they have largely contributed to It would be a fun cooperative project for siblings by dividing the steps according to age and skill ability, and importantly in terms of learning, their capacity. Finally, as it’s made from scrap waste there is less stress about ruining good fabric I love it. Thank you.

Wow, I never knew that there is a special ruler for the spider web block, I sewed it on paper with Christmas fabric scraps and I loved it. The quilt turned out very nice. But I love the idea with the salvages. Really great video and it sounds that you had so much fun creating the block.

I have been trying to cut my selvages off at a minimum of 1in for a few years. I have long strips, and even short ones. The short ones I have been sewing together as my leader/enders and then into long strips to add together for a later project. Thanks for the great selvage spiderweb quilt idea! 🥰

This is brilliant! I’m definitely going to make this! And I love LOVE no seams to match, since I’m fighting a top right now that has too many seams to match that aren’t matching😂😂. I finally decided to stop stressing and just sew. Otherwise I’ll get frustrated, put it away and not finish it.

@lidabard2121 Год назад

Fun technique! I think the selvedge wedges would be much thicker and stiffer due to the interfacing and overlapping. The solid wedges are much thinner and the bias edges would get wonky because they aren't stabilized?

@ShabbyFabrics Год назад

I thought that would be a problem, but I sprayed all of my background kite fabric with sizing prior to sewing it and I was pleasantly surprised to find that I had no warping on my edges. hope this helps you! -Bethany.

@patgarcia9313 Год назад

I love this tutorial. Am trying it now. What happens when it is washed?

@ShabbyFabrics Год назад

As long as each selvedge is sewn to the interfacing template, and the quilt is adequately quilted, the only thing that should happen to the quilt when it is washed is that it gets a little wrinklier, softer, and cleaner. Thank you for watching! -Bethany

@hey_virginia Год назад

Love it!! Question - what color thread did you use for topstitching? not all my selvedges are the same color white - maybe invisible thread?

@ShabbyFabrics Год назад

Glad you like it! We used a neutral thread for topstitching. If you like, you could use a contrasting one so your design will show! -Michelle

@lilys786 Год назад

I love this idea. I've been saving salvages for a different project, but this gives me another option. I do have a question. What's the difference between the spider web ruler and a regular 45-degree ruler. Thank you. Love your videos and your store.

@ShabbyFabrics Год назад

Regular 45degree rulers typically don't contain the lines needed to cut the kite shapes, only the triangle wedges. -Bethany

@lilys786 Год назад

@@ShabbyFabrics Thank you

@davidhensley76 Год назад

If every other wedge were cut from the background fabric the selvedge wedges would look like Christmas trees.

Great selvedge project but the ruler you specify is not the ruler that was used. The ruler that was used was Creative Grids CGRKA6 which has the 90 degree markings for the kite shape. The ruler you have listed does not have this feature.

@lindabond1590 Год назад

This might be very helpful when a quilter ask if anyone knows what fabric this is & no one remembers. You an go & try to find it as the salvage has that information. I didn’t read the comments so hopefully my comment isn’t what others have said.

@ShabbyFabrics Год назад
