What a grear way to show off these fantastic fabrics! Thank you!

[@TheSchkings]

I really appreciate your talking about how you chose fabrics to go together: how they relate in terms of design, scale, and color. That was really helpful!

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

Glad it was helpful, Catherine! Choosing fabrics is my favorite part of quilting and I enjoy sharing my process. it's all about finding what works for you and going with it! Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@maryannecadd796]

I am having trouble deciding if I like your low volume quilts or these bright and bold quilts better! Never mind, I love them all. Thanks and can't wait to see the final layout!

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

I totally agree, Mary Anne! Who can even decide? That's why quilters need so much fabric, we never know what we'll want to make next, right?! LOL I enjoy having you following along. Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@brigitsomerville3460]

I love how you explain how you put colours and patterns together. I love Kaffe Fasset fabrics! I usually just settle for two colours in my quilts. You are a inspiration! Thank you!

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

Sounds like you're ready for more colors in your quilt, Brigit! That's awesome. It's fun to work with lots of color and your quilt will be so interesting to look at. KF fabrics always draw attention, so mix more together and you'll be happy you did! Thanks for watching. Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@sandrarubin9278]

I LOVE her enthusiasm for quilting! I am right there with her!!! 💕 Can’t wait for more vids from this lady!

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

Thank you so much for your kind words, Sandra! Just wait until you see the Valentine's quilt I'm working on. It's also with Kaffe fabrics and the colors are stunning. I appreciate you following along! Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@kathyf3656]

Thank you for taking the time to explain your thinking on why you paired the different fabrics and where you placed them. It was really helpful.

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

Glad it was helpful! The way I combine fabrics is a large factor in how I quilt. Hopefully sharing that will assist others in finding what works best for them. Quilting is a personal expression and once we find what works best, it's so much more fun! Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@mike1968442]

Get yourself a 5 or 7 pound hand weight. It really helps hold down the ruler when you’re cutting/sub-cutting.

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

Great tip, Sally! That'd would be a big help keeping the ruler in place. Thanks for the comment. Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@mike1968442]

Sadly, my beautiful machine is in Az, and I’m in Pa waiting on my house to sell. Honestly it’s probably a good thing because I would be sewing and not doing necessary repairs. Hopefully come July, I will be burning up those feed doggies! So for now I just binge watch quilting videos.

[@juliaraley9563]

Wow, what an amazing spin on a traditional block! I have to agree with you….I couldn’t have kept my hands off that fabric either 💗. Thank you for sharing your love of fabric and quilting!

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

Thanks so much Julia! It's was a fun block to make and totally inspired by the fabric. Not to mention how easy it is. 😍 Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@angelahomicz1813]

Nice work! I wish I understood these design elements when I made my Kaffe quilt………it’s so bright and busy that it sits in a closet and never gets used

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

Completely understood, Angela! Please pull your quilt out of the closet and use it! We all have a quilt that didn't turn out as expected, but we also learn from each one we make. I made one with all vintage florals that is a ghastly sight. Now I just smile every time I curl up with it on the couch. This is my first quilt with Kaffe fabric as I wasn't sure how to use it either. My best decision was using an accent strip which I've used in other modern style quilts. I'm very pleased with how this turned out. Remember that every quilt teaches you something to make the next one even better! I can't wait to see your next one. :) Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@gfish6979]

thank you so much for all your time in explaining how certain colors go together and especially how you use them in your patterns. It really helps us that are new to sewing.

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

You are so welcome, I'm glad it's helpful! Once I discovered my quilting style, I've loved every quilt I make and thoroughly enjoy doing it. I really appreciate your comment b/c combining colors can be intimidating for a lot of us. Thank you for your feedback. Welcome to quilting and please let me know if you have any questions. Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

I’m use s old Antique iron the handle makes maneuvering it around so easy. Yo u can even put a piece of leather on bottom of iron. T glides much easier and doesn’t snag or drag.

[@joycesmith1270]

Thank you so much, beautiful eye candy. I have always used more subdued fabrics, but you have given me the courage to go brighter.

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

You can do it, Joyce! Though you may never be able to back to subdued fabrics for a very long time. LOL Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@pamelacasey1699]

Kaffe prints are one of my favorites! Beautiful blocks for these fabrics!

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

Greatly appreciated, Pamela. These prints need room to show off and the accent strips become a bit of a frame for each fabric to shine. This has been a fun quilt to work on! Thanks for following along. Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@nancyshaner8548]

Those are beautiful. I have a bunch of fat quarters and was wondering what I should do with all of them. Thanks

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

Thanks for watching, Nancy! Fat quarters are my favorite precut and I have a free pattern you can download - it's called 'All Blocked In'. You can watch the video 'Easy FQ Quilt Tutorial' which was released Dec 3, 2021 and the free pattern can be downloaded with the link in the description. Plus it's in my Fat Quarter Playlist along with a couple different variations of the same pattern. There is also a post on my website (find that link at the bottom of the description for this video) and that link is listed below in this reply as I'm not sure I can add a clickable link. If you go to my website and search 'Batik Fat Quarter Baby Quilt' you should be able to get there and click on the free download...or email me at [e-mail]. inspiredquiltingbylealouise.com/batik-fat-quarter-baby-quilt/ Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

Beautiful work! What is the name of the blue fabric that you used in all your blocks?

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

While it looks blue in the video, Marian, this is Kaffe Fassett's Fern fabric in turquoise. It works perfectly with these prints as an accent. So glad you like the combo, I'm very please with how it turned out. Thanks for your comment. Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

Could you provide the measurements. I would really like to make something similar. ❤👍👍👍

Hi Lorraine, the small blocks measure 12" and the larger block is 15". Check the description below the video for the link to get the complete pattern. It also includes a layout using just the smaller blocks. It's a versatile and FUN quilt to make! Thanks for watching. 😊 Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

What are the sizes of the cuts?

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

There are two different size finished blocks, Judy. This layout alternates them both. The link to purchase the pattern is in the description below the video and has all the instructions for both sizes. Thanks so much for watching! Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@sallybecker8399]

Shouldn't the fabric be pressed before cutting?

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

That's a personal preference, Sally. If the fabric has lots of creases and wrinkles I'll definitely give it a good press. When it's just folds I can generally work around that. Thanks for watching, Lea Louise

I actually want to apologize for my comment. I came down with a migraine after my comment. I think my sensitivity had more to do with my head rather than your video. My apologies.

[@marlenejones6266]

I have to agree but it must be hard to get right when you first begin. So once she gets used to this format it will get better . But may I ask why you don't press your fat quarter before cutting? I am just learning and I want to know the proper way of doing things. I'm 75 and I don't have that many years left to learn the right way

Your color info is great, but I feel you are limited in time and so am I with watching your videos. Less is Best in design!

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

I appreciate your comment and understand, Vicki! It is a fine line to determine. This video has a lengthier design segment due to this particular line of fabric. Many quilters are hesitant to use Kaffe Fasstt fabrics due to each print's individual, strong design. My goal was to show some helpful options. Though I must confess, I can talk about color and design endlessly! LOL Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

[@nancymiller349]

OMG stop freaking talking and do the job. Nothing like dragging things out. The first 10 minutes I lost you

[@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise]

I hear you, Nancy, but quilting for me is all about the fabric choices, colors and design. That's what I love to share. Simply sewing isn't very interesting to me without the preliminary steps. Just bump up your play back speed a bit and get to the part you want to see! I appreciate you hanging in there. :) Happy Quilting, Lea Louise
