I think you did a perfect job like I’ve said before you are a great teacher I m not doing this mystery quilt but I really like listening to you

[@SewtheDistance]

Thank you! You are so sweet! 🥰 I hope I can offer some tips along the way that you can use in other projects. That's my goal. This video was so rushed to get out, I didn't have much time to think or plan. Again, thank you for your kind words! ❤️❤️❤️

[@TheGuyWhoSews]

Hi Kris! Glad it finally made it to you. Loved seeing how your colourway sewed up. You did a fantastic job showing us.

[@SewtheDistance]

Hi Sean! Thank you so much 😊 This is fun! Can't wait to see how it all comes together!

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

Thanks for sharing

[@SewtheDistance]

My pleasure! Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@dadams512]

Loved how you presented this. I'm not an experienced quilter but I was able to follow along. Thanks!

[@SewtheDistance]

You are so welcome! So happy this is helpful! ❤️

[@suestutzle2779]

Love the colours in your fabric. It has me intrigued as to how it is going to end up looking. Keep on sewing and keep us informed. Looking forward to the next instalment.

[@SewtheDistance]

Thank you! It isn't my usual color palette, so I am unsure about it. 😬 I am also excited to see it come together.

[@NatalieMoore-cf4zt]

I really appreciate your tips about measuring each square as you go. Is probably the reason my previous attempts didn't work. I'm learning.

[@SewtheDistance]

Glad I could help! I have been in that same situation in the past. It really should help us both be successful with this. ❤️

[@luannelibbey1869]

How awesome! This sounds like fun!

[@SewtheDistance]

It is! Thank you! ❤️

[@lisaroper421]

So great!! I'm excited to follow along!

[@SewtheDistance]

Thank you! I am excited to see how it all turns out. So far it is a lot of fun!

[@bethkoch11]

I got my Clue #1 package a week or so ago, and I was waiting for this video! I really don't need to see you sew each and every seam, so your demo was perfect as far as I'm concerned.

[@SewtheDistance]

Wonderful! I am so happy to hear this. It is a balance between making it boring and giving good information. I always struggle with this, and I am glad to hear you like it this way. Thank you so much for letting me know!

[@dianehuntley2493]

I like that colorway!

[@SewtheDistance]

Me too! It is out of my comfort zone, but I think that's a good thing! LOL!

[@geraldwhite3523]

Yay!!🎉

[@SewtheDistance]

Yes!!! 😎

[@StitchyTherapist]

You made me catch the bug too - I picked the lemonade color way - having so much fun :)

[@SewtheDistance]

YAY! I came so close to getting another one in that color way. Love that one, too! Hmmm...maybe I still will. LOL!

[@lindad6223]

I would go absolutely crazy! I have such admiration for anyone who can handle a mystery quilt!

[@SewtheDistance]

I am so apprehensive about it! I shared in a previous video how I got burned before with a mystery quilt. Trying to keep an open mind. We will see! 😂

[@margm4]

Love your fabrics! 🇦🇺❤️

[@SewtheDistance]

Thank you! 😊

[@katherinef4291]

You did it just right. Don’t change :)

[@SewtheDistance]

Yay! So good to know! I always struggle with giving every single detail or an overview showing how I do it. Thank you so much for giving me feedback on this! ❤️

[@StitchyTherapist]

I agree! I did the same thing you did before I even watched the video :)

[@marionleep8612]

Waiting for your instructions for Carnival block 4! Love your teaching style on these blocks.

[@SewtheDistance]

Thank you! I just finished recording yesterday. I still need to edit the video. I had a family emergency last week that set me behind. So sorry for the delay. The video should be posted on Friday or Saturday. ❤️

[@marionleep8612]

@@SewtheDistance all is forgiven. Family first.

[@SewtheDistance]

Thank you! They did send the representatives the next two clues early because of the holidays, so I will have the videos done on time for the next two months! Yay!

[@glendacrouch1877]

Love your excitement! Love every video!

[@SewtheDistance]

Yay! Thank you! ❤️

[@sewbeitquilts]

Great video and tips! I always worked through the PMQ the same way you did. I liked to look ahead and see what all I could sew at once. You are making me wish I did another one of these PMQ! SEW FUN!

[@SewtheDistance]

Thanks! I realized about halfway through recording that I probably should have done it in order. LOL! Next time, maybe? Thanks for watching! I am looking forward to seeing this come together month by month!

[@marionleep8612]

Perfect! Enjoyed the whole video. Made me go buy it and follow you every month!

[@SewtheDistance]

Thank you so much! I have the next installment coming soon! ❤️

[@kathydailey782]

I also ordered the entire small kit- just now starting Clue 1🙃and I chose same color way as you! Thanks for the videos!

[@SewtheDistance]

Yay! So much fun! Clue 3 will be up later this week! ❤️

[@1elsue]

I got my 1st month yesterday. Looking forward to working on it

[@SewtheDistance]

Yay! I hope this video helps! ❤️

[@rachelh6330]

I liked how you put it together, it was very easy to follow. Best wishes 😊

[@SewtheDistance]

Oh good! Thank you! I wasn't sure if it would be easy to follow or not. 🥰

[@franpatzcraig6713]

What lovely colors!

[@SewtheDistance]

I think so too! The fabrics look like batiks. Very pretty!

[@lynnessewimperfect825]

Hi Kris! I'm not doing the sew along but I'm curious to know what the overall block size is. I love the blue fabric in it! ~~ Lynne

[@SewtheDistance]

Hi! Great question, Lynne, and I probably should have mentioned this. I kept track of all the sizes as I sewed them together and graphed them out. ❤️

[@SewingWithLawayne]

From my understanding only Amassadors and people who order the whole kit and pay up front will be emailed the clue instructions, the others will get the monthly printout.

[@SewtheDistance]

Thank you so much! I did get the instructions for the next one, so I think you are right. ❤️ I appreciate your help! ❤️
