I love quilts that look like they were so much work. This would also look good as a three color quilt or even a two color quilt.... oh the possibilities!
I love your tutorials. 💛 I started quilting one year ago. And i am looking at the near side of 70. I have 16 grandchildren and 9 greats. So you can imagine I am not hurting for projects. You have taught me so much. We retired down to Florida 6 years ago abd I may be the only one that doesnt have a tan!!!!😄😉😂 I spend most of my time in my sewing room. 💜 We are from Missouri and will have to make plans to visit your shop. Thank you for sharing your awesome gift and passion for quilting. 👍😁
Glad I read this twice. I thought you'd made almost 70 quilts in one year. I was thinking you must be a MAD seamstress with your machine/s. Congrats on learning to quilt, I am learning, too, and congrats on all of your children, grands, and greats. Happy quilting!
I am 70 this year and i've been quilting since i was single until now. This is all new to me. Thank you Jenny what a big help and has make our sewing easy😍😍😍
This is a great pattern I have just finished making it. I made it for my sister and she loves it so much, anyone that comes to her home has to see this quilt. Thank Jenny for the pattern and the video it great.
I love it when Jenny does tutorials and lets you know that not all blocks are "perfect" and that's okay...She's an amazing teacher. Her kids must have learned so much from her & Ron.....They all seem like such an amazing family.
Dear Jenny, after all these years of quilting, you are still my go-to pattern for quilts! You are such a Joy to our wonderful quilting community, Thank you. My CA girlfriend and little ole me in NC, are planning a get together in Hamilton! Can't wait and praying for all of you and your sweet town...Love ya
Love it... all those left over 5" blocks that I didn't know what to do with. Wow! This would be perfect. Scrappy quilt. Ohhh. Wait if I bought yardage of two colors ...Wow the possibilities are endless. Thank you for sharing
I made this quilt. I got tired of marking the dots for cutting. In measuring, I quickly noticed that the two inch mark was exactly 1.5 inches from center. I used my , Stripology Ruler XL and made my cuts an inch and a half from center used a rotating mat, turned and did the other points as well. Perfect cuts every time. I did make a slightly larger seam than a quarter inch. When I went to trim to 8 inch square, I was short and using the Stripology Ruler XL and I trimmed to 7.5 inch square. Saved lots of time with the Stripology Ruler XL. I did put a piece of double sided picture framing tape (has foam in middle) for my rail guide for the perfect quarter inch seam. I found that I was not into a multi color quilt. Next time I will make as a two color quilt or at least the same color way. It's a very pretty design. Hope my tips will make for a faster project. Happy quilting!
This is awesome!! And I had a “why didn’t I think of that” moment when you were squaring the block. It just so happens I was building one of your cool disappearing 4 patch blocks & when it was time to square up, I didn’t have a big square so started overthinking how to do it. And there it was on this tutorial. I love your videos!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us❤️
Wow! I am seeing so many secondary patterns emerge! Across a row I see overlapping white and colored zigzags. Over the whole quilt I see white and colored overlapping latttices. I also see alternating colored and white X'S. I also see alternating white squares and colored squares. I see half-X'S along the 4 sides. I see cute little bowties. It is amazing how many secondary patterns this simple disappearing 4-patch block makes. It is mind boggling!
Finally I found the block that I was looking for!..had to go through all of Jenny's videos. Have lots of 10 x 10 scraps from other projects, so I am going to start this one at Christmas break. I have to make a quilt for granddaughter and hubby. I also work part time driving a 72 passenger school bus.
Love, love, love your disappearing anything blocks! I always find myself holding my breath when you slice it up! Then amazement the block turns into something fantastic! Genius!
This is wonderful. I continue to be amazed at what quilters come up with when changing blocks around. I can’t wait to make this...thank you for sharing!!
Jenny I'm so glad to see how your arm has healed up. You looked like you got in a bad fight for a while! Keep making these great videos. I'm a new quilter and my next quilt is going to be one of yours. I love everything you do.
I just finished this quilt and loved it, I’m a beginner only learning to sew from scratch at the end of January 2020 😊 Thanks Jenny, your tutorials are brilliant x
I'm so glad that your creative juices continue to flow during this year and COVID 19. This is an amazing block. You continue to surprise me. Thank you for all you do to keep us quilting. LOVE YOU Jenny!
I'm making this right now and found that it saves time, marks and is more accurate to line your tip, center X and other tip up on the 1 1/2" line and cut. Rotate cut, 4 Xs.😁
Oh my heck! I would never have guessed that started as a 4-patch! So sneaky 😊 I may have to do some practice blocks before using my well-hoarded layer cakes LOL
Oh Jenny you make me laugh. You make it look so easy to make. I am working on it. I finished this block and it kind of resembles yours- but I will keep making them until I get it right. Thanks for sharing your knowledge .
Jennie, You just blew me away. That is so simple and I thought you were having to jump thru all kinds of hoops to make that block. That is absolutely awesome. Thank you ever so much for your creativity!!!
Hi Jenny, thank you so much again for another idea for a new quilt. I ´m so enthusiasted of your projects, which are looking so difficult, but they aren ´t. ( Thank God !!) So I love to follow your tutorials and have a lot of fun to sew them myself, can ´t describe. You show that so simple, so that a quilt beginner can also do it. Thank you so, so much for your effort, especially now while ˋCorona ´ is taking all our thoughts. I wish you a nice Weekend, see on Friday again 😍👍🥰
Jenny, every time you say "press to the dark side" it makes me smile because my brain immediately goes to the Star Wars' "Dark Side." hahaha By the way, I love your disappearing blocks. It's so cool to watch how blocks can be rearranged into something completely different.
I have a bunch of older Halloween prints and lots of unbleached muslin, so this will be a great way to use them. Thank you for your wonderful step by step instructions, and great tutorials.
Absolutely love this tutorial and thank you so very much for all of the work you share. Your videos are such a pleasure to watching follow along with. Love love love your channel. ❤
I love this quilt! I'd love to see it set on point to make plus signs and diamonds instead of X's and squares, I think that would look just as awesome!
Love these types of blocks! I never would have guessed that was a four patch. It would be interesting to play with the cutting numbers ( ie using 2.5 or 3”) to see what effect it would have on the overall quilt. Thanks for another great tutorial!
