I enjoy your videos, and I am using these templates. I'm 70 years old, American, and I am now in the post--Industrial stage of my life. I really laugh at Americans turning qayg into machine work, and machine quilting setups that cost about $5,000 used. You keep working as slowly as you wish. Thank you for your relaxed style of presentation.

@bevricker4812 4 месяца назад

You underestimate the cost of the sewing set up my sister had six machines two did embroidery as well and one did only one stitch. The biggest was $22K. I love handwork and have no appreciation for machine embroidery.

@lauraoneal5146 3 месяца назад

I am American and I do take offense to this nasty remark. I do hand stitch but also machine stitch. My machine set up didn’t cost anywhere near $5000 thank you. I got as a gift from my husband for our 39th wedding anniversary a $250 brand new Brother machine that does more stitches than I will ever use. So just to let you know not all of us spend that kind of money and if I hand stitch quilt as you go or do it by machine it didn’t cost me any more than you hand stitching as it was A GIFT. Not all Americans are frivolous spenders. So keep your rude comments across the pond.

@@lauraoneal5146if you are referring to smallmeadow’s remarks, she said she is American, as am I, and I think she was just saying that some prefer machine work and some slow stitching.

Just came across your channel, and boy, am I going to enjoy catching up with all your videos. I love this quilt! I have almost finished a tilda quilt myself, but I think I might start this one. I, too, have many projects on the go. When I first started sewing 4 years ago, I brought my work and home life mentality into it, giving myself deadlines and trying to finish them. Then I realised that the beauty of creativity is to let your mind wander from one to another and truly de-stress by removing those pressures. Thank you for being so calm and soothing and fun! Can't wait to see more from you. Delightful!

@stitchwithrachel 4 месяца назад

I agree that we can often put too much pressure on ourselves and I usually just sew what and when I pleased but I thought that I had let people down by not finishing this project sooner... but that was foolish of me as everyone has been so loving and supportive in the comments. Back to the joy of creating! Thank you for joining me xx

Thennnnn it’s let’s give it a go, ohhh wait a minute what about this or that or life or many other squirrels popping up😝…… It’s apparent we enjoy what you have to offer!!! Thank You for sharing your time and God given talents. 🥰❤️😀

Oh yes! I am a newbie to quilting and came across your channel..I was blown away by this project, and have ordered a shedload of Tilda fabrics to be sent to me in France, together with the Moda backing and the templates you use. I can’t wait for them all to arrive and get started! I am 69, and have only just learnt how to use my 96 year old mum’s sewing machine to start to do patchwork but am really drawn to the hand quilting too. I have also started a couple of your hand stitched pouches. Love your ideas!

You are definitely not alone... I was going to count how many projects I have on the go, but I think it might exceed 10, so let's just leave it there. I am in the middle of various projects, some hand sewing and others are machine sewing. Quilting is a creative process, and if you're "not feeling it" with a particular project, it's best left for a time when you're in the mood for that. We started each project for a reason, and we'll get them done eventually... lol Thanks for sharing & Cheers

@hilaryjohnston9481 4 месяца назад

Rachel I love these templates and watched your cutting video. i couldnt get my corners looking nice so i dont use the outer template with the corners cut off, but leave them rectangular and use the instructions from a backing quilt and binding all in one. that gives me nice mitred corners which i love. many thanks for the qayg idea and instructions. your videos are excellent and pitched at a level easy to follow, especially for a 80 3/4 elderly teenager.

@almostoily7541 4 месяца назад

I liked this so much I'm making one for hubby. I'm using denim for the backing ( used jeans 👖) and different colors of check and buffalo plaid for the insides. I use a face roller that has a stone rolly thingy for a seam press. I bought it at the Dollar Tree in the US for $1.25 USD. It's in the makeup section. I'm going to put 5" squares in my hubby's quilt with some embroidery on them. I know I'm going to do a squirrel with acorns and oak leaves on one. He also has a dog he loves so I might try to find a pattern for one. I think his name in a square. I'm not sure what else. Maybe four or five scattered throughout. You're not alone in the slow department. I have some cut but only two rectangles and one 2 1/2" square sewn 😅

I love using the Grunge pieces for solids. They tie everything together so well in a quilt top. I need to get on my hexies again. I'm kind of waiting to finish up some other quilt tops, though, so I know what pieces will be left to cut my 2.5 in squares from. I just wrap each square around a 1in hexie cardstock template, then baste. I'm not fiddling with cutting out hexagons. Just wrap, baste, stitch together, pull put inner basting threads, and reuse templates for the next diamond set. 😊 I'm glad I found you. Don't blame yourself for being a slow sewer. I like having handsewing projects, as I'm sure many others do. It's refreshing to find a channel like this, when so many set their camera speed so high that they are hard to watch. Kate, at the Last Homely House is a handstitcher, too, and it is so nice to just take our time working on our projects, especially when life is a rat race anyway.

@alisonmary1443 4 месяца назад

The shape of the block is easy on the fabric, perfect for little waste. I wasn't sure about the shape at first but the more I see the rectangles together the more I like it, I reckon it will look super completed as a full quilt, so glad I didn't start cutting for plan A which was an entirely different shape. Thank you 🌻

I’ve been hand quilting for years. I NEVER stay on my time target. It is all my fault. I start quilts for gifts before I’ve finished the one I’m working on. This video captured my attention so much that I wanted to start today. I have plenty of fabric, muslim and batting right now on my quilting shelves. But, I controlled my impulsive urge by rationalizing its just been over a year since I did any quilting. Hopefully you can read the emotion between my text and know how much JOY watching your video gave me. I’m making plans to do a quilt using this video method. Thank you Rachel.

It’s my first attempt and I’m really enjoying the whole process. I really love the puffy bouncy feeling of each finished block. I’ve only got 121 to do in total. I’ve chosen to do mitred corners as I saw this demonstrated elsewhere on the Internet and really like that look. Wish me luck in finishing this before the baby arrives in June!

When I was younger there were so many quilts I wanted to do and I would agonize at how slow I was because I love the hand quilting even if I piece them by machine. But now I look at it completely different... Age has mellowed me and I know enjoy the process and the journey rather than the end results... I enjoy every minute or hour or day that I am quilting.... I love the creating. I love the stitching. I love listening to audiobooks as I'm working and I put a lot of love into all my hand work.... And I'm sure you're the same. No guilt eventually your 10 or 12 projects will get finished and you can start a whole bunch of new ones!!

thank you for the inspo rachel - your original QAYG vid popped into my youtube feed out of the blue and i was hooked. and yes! i'm in! i ordered everything i needed yesterday, and am sorting my cotton stash now, waiting in anticipation. i come from a long line of southern (USA) women who did "hand work" of all kinds, and while i am primarily a knitter (knittress?), i find myself more and more drawn to the quilting - maybe following my roots. so thanks again for the inspiration. in a few months, i'm on a boat to alaska, and i think this will be the perfect small project - rather than knitting - eek! - did i just say that? cheers from libby in utah

I brought you over to the dark side, sounds like you are going to have great fun with this project and I agree it will be a great project to take on the boat, take some back up knitting incase you need a change. Happy stitching xx

We love Tilda fabrics! This is such a fun quilt as you go project. I know i'm notorious for starting another project before one is finished because there are just so many out there, so much inspiration everywhere! Thank you for sharing!

I enjoyed your video. I prefer hand sewing too. Protector your hand. They make gloves to help support your hand on the outside. I suffered through 30 years of pain and just had carpel tunnel release surgery. I’m looking forward to no more numb fingers. I also enjoy the silicone finger protectors.

I started doing this after seeing your first video about it.I have so much leftover fabric and this is such perfect way to use it. I am absolutely loving doing it. I just sit with either the tv on, music playing, listening to a podcast and sew away. So meditative and relaxing. And loving how it's turning out. Thanks so much for presenting it!!

To start in to finish it’s tough to stick to it but well worth it in the end I’m finding I’m picking up pieces I didn’t finish can’t believe I’ve built up so much but now I pick up those pieces I had embroidery I make a twist what I wanna do man it’s coming out good offer

Your video inspired me to start quilting again after a 10+ year break. I have tons of scraps from projects I've sewn over the years & this is a perfect & perfectly simple way to use up lots of them. It's also a great project for working on while watching TV or listening to audio books. Thank you for these videos. I've enjoyed them.

I find the solid clear plastic from the base of shopping bags makes a good home made template. It isnt very thick so you need to be a little careful tracing around but the edge never frays and gets smaller so your size remains accurate.

Your quilt is so lovely! And the idea of making individual blocks first - front, wadding, and backing - is brilliant!! Reminds me of the "authentic" cathedral quilt, which I think you'd love making, as well. Thank you!

Thank you for the update, I am a project starter too…not so much a finisher! All in due time I believe it will all get done. 💕

The quilt looks beautiful! I love the Tilde prints and colors, and you found an excellent border and backing fabric in the Moda grunge. I was wondering if the ladder stitch would work well to join the rectangles? As far as multiple projects go, I have 3-4 quilt tops completed that need to be sandwiched and quilted, and one Halloween quilt to be bound. I was sick and didn’t finish it for last Halloween. I’m also working on a granny square afghan, and getting back into garment sewing with pants and a shirt taking shape - and more fabric and patterns are waiting. I do jump around so much, and my projects take so much longer in reality than they seem in my mind! Well, I’m never bored!

Sounds like you have some wonderful projects on the go! For joining I do the recommended stitch from Daisy and grace which is a ladder/wip hybrid stitch. Where one side you do the ladder motion and then go straight across via a wip stitch (all cover in my earlier videos) this makes it quite strong as there are two stitches per rung on the ladder. I have experimented with just a ladder stitch and I didn't like it

Thanks for this video Rachel, so many good tips. I have done the front of a cushion cover in these rectangles which I've finished lately. In between that I've done some EPP and had the idea of doing a little bit of embroidery in the centre hexie. That's spilled over into me doing another rectangle QAYG cushion cover but slipping some slow stitching in the middle of the rectangles i.e.. embroidery/ lace overlay so far. So you see you're not alone in moving from project to project lol. Keep up the good work.
