FAST & Amazing 4 Patch Kaffe Kaleidoscope Quilt. Part 2 Beginner Friendly

[@lynwillmott9839]

Thanks for making an overwhelming task before watching your concise method into one I now look forward to having a go!

[@debramagginetti135]

Thank you!! I’ve been wanting to make a kaleidoscope quilt for awhile now; this four-patch presentation takes all the kinks out of worrying about the hexies. Yours is beautiful.

[@gwenwolff6607]

So much fun to see each of these beautiful blocks come to life 🎉 Thanks very much! Can’t wait to make my own.

[@evakroh8628]

I’ve never seen a quilt done this way and I really love it. I’m totally inspired. I love Kaffe fabric and often wonder about how to make the best out of his striking designs. Thank you so much for the clear and patient explanations. ❤😊

[@folkartjane]

So beautiful! I like this better than the hexi kaleidoscope quilts and so much easier! Thank you for sharing your talents! Blessings

[@70acres]

I've done the hexi one and I like this one better. It is so much easier to get a great looking block with simple squares! God bless, Jane!

[@folkartjane]

This is now on my To Do list! Thank you!

Nice!!🎉❤

[@70acres]

🥰

[@pegasusquilts]

And the math!! Once upon a time I was really good at it, now not so much. Good thing about this technique is if you feel like it, you can just skip the math and wing it. Make however many it makes and arrange when it's done. If you have spares you get to choose your favorites.

[@70acres]

Very true, Pegasus! Thanks for the reminder!

Beautiful quilt top💖Happy Birthday 🎂 🎉🐱🐔🐣

[@bbrown8353]

I LOVE THIS!!!! I 've always wanted to do a kaleidoscope but the 6 yards of fabric, half hexi rows & aligning 6 layers to cut always intimidated me. I did do a table runner and decided a full size quilt would become a UFO. But a 4 patch! I can do this! thank you And you are so right about the scale of the fabric - this is stunnung

[@70acres]

Thanks so much for your lovely comment, Grandma! This is so fun, give it a try. I ordered 4 yards and still have quite a bit of it left. Thanks for watching!🥰

[@lindafrantz4913]

Oh my! This is absolutely beautiful! Love your fabric choice. These are so much fun to make. Extremely addicting!!!! Thank you again.

[@70acres]

They are fun. Thanks for watching, Linda! 🥰

[@stitchann]

Gorgeous Quilt, I would think about adding some of your original fabric as a border on the quilt.

[@70acres]

That is a great idea, maybe with a lime green or hot pink flange border too. Thanks for watching, Ann!

[@conniewinkler4838]

' Beautiful!! Have done 1 with the triangles method and will switch to this one! Thanks much!!

Thanks for watching and commenting, Connie! I like this one, it’s so much quicker and less complicated.

[@roseanderson4928]

I have a Singer 301 also and I love it! I have a couple of featherweights and though they are very good they cannot compete with my 301.

[@70acres]

I agree, Rose, I have several Featherweights and they don't compare to my 301! I'll be getting a new vintage machine the end of the month. This is a White from the 50s and it is turquoise! I can't wait to start playing with it! Thanks for watching!

[@ksharpe8137]

@@70acresmy dream is to own one if those machines. Where should I start looking?

[@70acres]

Facebook Marketplace, Craig’s List or EBay. I see tons of listings on Marketplace all the time.

[@quiltanon]

I did not know about the dots in the selvedge edges and that is where the pattern repeats. I used that information to piece a quilt back together for a seamless appearing backing. I did struggle with matching the fabric vertically, but it turned out great for my first attempt. Thank you!

[@70acres]

I’m glad my video helped you! Thanks for watching!

[@pegasusquilts]

About the fullness, it does work best if the larger layer is against the feed dogs.

[@70acres]

Yes, I've heard that. On my vintage machine, I can take up slack from either piece of fabric just by holding the fabric up. Gotta love a vintage machine! Thanks for watching!

[@daphnepayne8613]

It looks so simple when you’re doing this. It’s lovely ❤

[@70acres]

It is simple! Give it a try, Daphne. Thanks for watching,

[@freddiehansen7324]

Love the choice of fabric! I will have to try this! I have seen the ones with hexagons and I'm not up for that yet lol

[@70acres]

Kaffe fabric makes everything look good! I much prefer this pattern than the hexagons. Thanks for watching, Freddie!

[@freddiehansen7324]

@@70acres Yes! I can match up 4 squares but 6 triangles is just a bit harder for a beginner :) The end result is just as stunning :)

[@patriciadriggers6263]

❤ thank you for the wonderful instructions I am thinking on trying it soon. I have several different fabrics half yard each Wondering if I could use it instead of one continuous piece of fabric 🧐🤔

[@70acres]

The reason you need one continuous piece is that you need 4 repeats of the fabric. So if the repeat is 24” you need 4 times of the same repeat to make the blocks. Watch my previous video, Part 1, for those instructions. Thanks for watching Patricia!

[@janetdinatale9861]

How much yardage did you have? What size is your finished quilt?

[@szelop]

Get a mini split for the heat! It’s too hot!

[@maryleehagler6419]

I can’t find part 1

Is there a written instruction for this beauty??????? I am new so I don't know if I would remember them all without seeing it,HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
