I just LOVE quilters who admit to making the same mistakes the rest of us do and can find humor along the way. If we can't laugh at ourselves now and then......... Thanks for this really good video. Sewing the strips AND matching the sewing lines without doing it frantically or as though you have OCD was SO refreshing! Perfection is overrated; to err is human. From one imperfect human to another - I frequently crack myself up! The colors in that jelly roll are gorgeous! I think I must have watched hundreds of quilting videos, but you can ALWAYS learn something new along the way. Quilting provides calm and keeps me sane. Well,.......IMHO, anyway. Linda

That she made her own clothes (she loved Vogue and Butterick patterns). Also, my sister's wedding dress, and a ball gown of green silk , taffeta and and overlay of lace to wear to the general's ball in Colorado Springs in 1958 where my father's taught at the Air Force Academy. You have the same machine, whata joy to see it! And now I'm going to make this quilt on it😅

Thank you so much for showing how to make an easy quilt out of the Jelly Rolls. I had bought two different ones a couple years ago and they are still sitting. Now I know exactly what I will be making, thanks to you. I haven’t watched part 2 yet but I hope it covers the batting & backing along with the binding. I am not an experienced quilter at all. The binding gave me the most trouble. I am Blessed to have found your channel. I am going to the videos where I saw Jesus’s name so I can watch one. Thank you and have a blessed day. Karen
@70acres Жыл бұрын
Oh Karen, I don't touch on the binding in Part 2 because I have a pile of around 40 quilt tops that need quilting. My body limits what I can do and I don't have a setup conducive to machine quilting at the moment. My Bernina sits too high on the table and it stresses out my neck so fast. I do have videos where I do batting and bindings so you can watch those. I will try to get to quilting as soon as I get a table that works for me. I'm eyeing a sit down long arm but it isn't in the budget for now so the pile of tops grows. Thank you for your comment and for watching. God bless!

I think that happens a lot when a person cuts on the left side of the ruler. I think it happens a lot less often when cutting on the right side of the ruler. ...I hope what I'm saying makes sense...lol 😊 Have a blessed day! 💗🙏🙏🙏💗
