Adorable 3 Yard Quilt Tutorial using Button Box Pattern

Yep, it's another 3 yard quilt tutorial featuring a quilt pattern from Donna Robertson's book 'Quilt in a Jiffy'. This 3 yard quilt pattern, Button Box, has a combination of pieced blocks along with an easy solid square. Watch to see the ins and outs of putting the pieced blocks together. As always Donna's quilt patterns make a quilt that looks more complicated than it is to make. She is a wizard at making block building easy and efficient. I've chosen a sweet fabric collection featuring rainbows, raindrops and clouds for my quilt. I hope this video will assist you in putting together your quilt using Donna's book.

Am watching this 2 years late but I saw the mistake. Have to admit I almost missed it. Still love how this quit turned out and think I will try it when I finish the quilt I'm working on now. Thanks for making the 3 yard quilts....you are an inspiration!

[@aprilscraftroom]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@wilycat5290]

That button block turned the other way won't be noticed by a child 🚸. I think the quilt is adorable. Thank you for the video 😊👍💕

[@aprilscraftroom]

Oh thank you! Sometimes the struggle is real... LOL but it still turned out pretty I think... thanks for watching! April

[@lisawaterman2737]

Leaving "mistakes" lets the receiver know it was truly handmade. 💜👍

[@aprilscraftroom]

Absolutely!! April

[@sewcanned946]

That pink border makes that quilt. Good job!

[@aprilscraftroom]

Thank you 😊 April

[@rebeccafoster-faith6647]

I love the 3 yard quilts...makes it fun to shop hop and use up the pretty fabric that follows me home.

[@aprilscraftroom]

I agree !!!

[@kathyclayton4318]

I am pretty sure I saw this video when it first was released a year ago because it already had been given the “thumbs up”, but I did not make a comment. I too am a fan of Donna and have several of her patterns and books. Her patterns are super fun and make the best use of the entire 3 yards of fabric which I appreciate. No waste! I love that you made a mistake in this one and didn’t rip it out to redo it. It makes the quilt a “designer” quilt because it is unique. Go April! We lived in the Lexington KY area for several years back in the 70s while my husband was getting his master’s degree. We visited friends in the Louisville area often. We found KY a wonderland of places to visit and explore. One of our favorite restaurants was the Colonel’s Lady in Shelbyvile near Louisville. It was a favorite place for those very special occasions. Definitely not like the Colonel’s KFC. We also became a fan of the Kentucky Hot Brown! We have fond memories of our time in KY and have visited there often since. I would guess the quilt shops are amazing and in abundance in that area. Thanks for sharing yourself in your videos. They always brighten my day and I do watch them multiple times when they come up on my feed. Keep them coming!

[@aprilscraftroom]

Kentucky is AWESOME for sure! Thank you so much for your comments and for watching! April . now I want a hot brown... LOL

I wouldn't say even if I had spotted it, it's rude! Thanks for the videos that show you making mistakes, some of them out there are so darn perfect I would not dare attempt the project. I do cross stitch and you couldn't find one finished piece of mine where I haven't "amended the pattern"! You cheer me up and make my day better, I'm glad I found you on KZbin.

I have a quilting Buddy just like yours. Wherever I'm working, he's right there. One time I cut off a bunch of his fur from the end of his tail. (Ooooops) It didn't hurt him and the flat part grew out. Thank you for your cute videos. :) I love it when you're a little confused and then work it out. Helps me go for it, too.

I love these books too. Thank you for watching and commenting. :-) April

[@sandiewhite874]

April, you are so much fun to watch, and your calm demeanor has helped me get back into quilting for the first time in 25+ years. My first three yard quilt is to the point of putting my sandwich together and to start quilting. Can't wait! I've loved to sew since I was 13 years old and did a lot of it when my kids were young. Then life happened and I had to go to work. Finally, I was able to retire about 5 years ago, and split my time between making greeting cards and sewing, and I'm loving the quilt making. Please keep your videos coming. You make it look so easy! Thank you!

[@aprilscraftroom]

You have just made my week. What a wonderful compliment. I am so glad you are back into quilting and thank you for watching me. :-). And I am so jealous that you are retired. I look forward to that one day myself. April

Please, please, please do more 3 yard quilt videos. I love your videos. You are so helpful. I have all the 3 Yard Quilt books and frankly, I have trouble with some of the patterns. My strip sets NEVER come out the right width. I am a really careful cutter, but I am obviously doing something wrong. I really like the way you talk as you work. I enjoy your thought process.

[@aprilscraftroom]

I feel the same way. Just keep trying. I can’t cut a straight line to save my life but it seems to get better the more quilts I make. :-). More 3 yard quilt videos coming to a screen near you. Thank you so much for watching and your kind comments. April

[@daveleeannheier5648]

Perhaps it is your 1/4" seam. There are videos out there that help you check how accurate it is.

[@aprilscraftroom]

That is a possibility. I will have to hold my fabric up after I cut it and see how crooked it is. A friend of mine says it is because I am left handed. LOL

[@Thatbaddie_620]

I know how you feel. I started on a 3yd quilt, got frustrated and now it is a UFO😁

I was going to skip making this pattern but after seeing the way yours turned out, absolutely lovely, it is going to go on my To Do List! I am definitely loving making 3 yard quilts. I also appreciate you pointing out to deviate from the pattern to make it how we want. Uniquely ours! I doubt I would have found the mistake without you pointing it out. I think when I try this one I will see if I like a scattered buttons look on my design wall before assembling. My friend often tells me if I wouldn't point it out no one would notice.

[@aprilscraftroom]

LOL ... Sometimes the struggle is real.... Thank you for your comments ... I love 3 yard quilts too.. Thanks for watching! April

[@lauraoneal5146]

April I do believe you and I are clones!! 😂 I have a quilting helper but her favorite spot is in the floor next to my pedal. I get smacked if she doesn’t approve my 1/4” seam. 🐈🙄 I think I have figured out the misbehaving blocks. We get them lined up and ready. We leave the room for dinner, laundry rotations or sleep and they decide to party. When they hear us coming back they try to get back in their place and one goofy 🤪 never quite makes it. 😂😂😂 Keep up your awesome videos.

Oh my goodness! Love your fabrics and cat! I have one, Oliver, who could be related!!

[@aprilscraftroom]

Is he mischievous? Does he steal your stuff and play with it? If so I think they are related. LOL. April

New to your show. Love Donna Robertson’s show. But with your demo I learned techniques. The cat was fun seems they have to get in the middle of what one is doing. My mother quilted from the age of 11 to 94. She would have come unglued if an animal were on the quilt. However I loved it. Keep up your shows so others can learn the simple reasons for the techniques to improving the out come of products.

Thank you. My Mom has sewn since I can remember and started quilting before I became interested. Now we get to do it together. My Grandmother however would have died if a cat had gotten on her crocheting. LOL. Thank you for watching. April

Love your videos, you make me smile and you have inspired me to buy the books and use the patterns. $25 Australian plus $25 postage for us though - a total of approx US$65 😱

[@aprilscraftroom]

Yay! You are going to love these patterns. :-). And thank you for watching and the kind words. April

Love this quilt. An easy pattern, but the fabric is so stinking cute it makes it adorable. Really love all the fabric, and the binding fabric is outstanding. Thanks for the inspiration. Right now I’m making some baby quilts in flannel. Any chance of you doing a tutorial with flannel? Again, thanks for all the tutorials. Really like watching.

[@aprilscraftroom]

Thank you so much! I love flannel ... I will put it on my TO DO list! Thanks for the suggestion! April

Caught mistake only because you drew our attention to it. Most people wouldn't catch the mistake as they would be happy to be receiving a handmade quilt, a treasured gift.

Just a little rotation and the block would be fine.....but your quilt is purrr-feet.❤️

[@aprilscraftroom]

Yes it would be easy to fix but I almost prefer having a little boo boo. LOL. Thank you for watching. April
