Celtic Quilting Made Easy (Ep. 213)

[@jazz2012]

Kathleen produces incredible patterns and exactly what I've been looking for the longest time. Thank you for sharing, I have no idea how or why I landed on this video but I am so pleased I did.

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jazz2012]

@@QuiltingWithNancy It certainly is helpful and I have subscribed to your channel. I need all the help I can get :)

[@donnabailey947]

I nearly passed out...Lord! I’m supposed to be able to make that?? But you explained it so beautifully, I think I could. Thanks you.

[@jakemcnamee9417]

You're an amazing artist. Thank you for sharing your knowledge on the craft.

[@joane8651]

Have always been intrigued with Celtic designs, and she makes it look easy and even do-able! Thanks for posting this, loved watching.

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

Glad you liked it.

[@suecone2198]

What great info!! I would have never guessed that the process would be so easy and yet look so complicated. The double sided tape really makes the process quite doable.😍

[@maryredick9894]

Wow! I love the double sided tape idea, and the hint about the raw edge toward the outside edge of a curve will be very helpful!

[@debc8402]

Beautiful thank you for sharing with us her quilts are so beautiful

[@sharizabroski6910]

This was a great video, thank you. I have always loved Celtic designs and now that I've seen the method used, I will have to give it a try!

[@angelaclopton6425]

Watched your video, and looked up how to purchase the patterns. Just ordered the Celtic Layers one, Such a beautiful design, I cant wait to make one. Thank you!!

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

Weren't these finished quilts amazing?! Send us a photo when you're done - we'd love to see it.

[@jeanettem9016]

what brilliant demo, i am going to try this technique.

[@zenywalker3506]

That's a beautiful quilt. I loved it!! It makes it easy but I don't know if I can do it.

[@ceciliaburress1556]

This was incredibly informative! Thank you!

[@Saucyakld]

Amazing, what a wonderful artist

[@lesleymorris6920]

Looks Great. Would love to try it. Thank you !!

[@briteddy9759]

Great video! I met Kathleen Andrews from KwiltArt at the Des Moines AQS show 2017 and her quilts are just stunning. This is something I definitely have to try.

[@melb9528]

Love her patterns.... I just made Convex Illusions pattern and was looking for a new challenge. This might be it!

[@cindymcfarland4686]

Wow! Beautiful. Probably easier than it looks but time consuming, too.

[@Saucyakld]

Wish I saw this earlier, threw mine out!

[@kellywilliams529]

Is there a way to get a template for the large Celtic knot that's on the quilt behind her? This video is excellent information! Exactly what I was looking for, but all I can find are simple templates. I love the detail on the quilt that's hung up.

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

I would ask the designer - Kathleen Andrews, from KwiltArt www.kwiltart.com

[@asiahsheik2105]

Super awesome

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

Thanks

[@murphysf1]

I would like to see more of how to continue piecing the tubes. I'm sure you have some good ideas on how to smoothly weave under. Do you place it before you start stiching? How much do you stick down before stitching?

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

Hi - I think taking a looks at a playlist from one of our earlier episode will help - here i will show you how i make the bias stems and how i stitch them down with Invisible machine applique. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4fan4t5at5rp68 Nancy

[@iicejj]

Thanks for all the info, how do you transfer the shape fixed onto the paper pattern piece by piece on to the fabric?

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

Hello - I think it best that you contact the designer - here is her website :) www.kwiltart.com

[@annielaurie5162]

Help! How do you get an accurate 1/8" seam on your sewing machine?

[@cindyspaugh6491]

How do you put the bias pieces UNDER the over pieces? You start where the bias is under another over piece. You then place it as far as you can until it goes under another one.

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

It takes some planning, getting the unders and overs to work just right but it's very fun to do. Here is the video we did on OnPoint-TV that shows Nancy's technique - it might help explain :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWTVZWSlbsephK8

[@CelticBearWoman]

Is the tape washable? Im concerned about that in case the wall art or bed quilt needs washing.

[@talllala]

I would think you get it professionally dry cleaned. But she did say the tape was water soluble so I imagine it would wash away in the machine, which should theoretically be fine as long as your hand stitching was secure.

[@michellewimmer7957]

Where do you find the crystals? and the setter?

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

I would recommend Micheal’s or on line.

[@michellewimmer7957]

@@QuiltingWithNancy I've researched that and thank you for the reply. Now... where do you find the tube pressor. I've looked online and at a couple shops. What is the official name of the product? Maybe I can narrow down from there. I've done it without one, but that would make it so much better. I'm considering using a thin cardboard at this point.

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

Hi Michelle - I don't remember what the gal used in the video but here is a link to what I use - I used to use the Collins brand but it isn't around any more. www.firesidequilts.com/shop/Notions/p/Loop-Pressing-Bars-x69789395.htm Here is also a link to my video playlist for creating and making your own Celtic designs - I call them Quilted Tiles :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWTVZWSlbsephK8&pp=gAQBiAQB

[@michellewimmer7957]

Thank you. Actually found them at Walmart on line too. Just wasn't using the correct name. Thanks again!@@QuiltingWithNancy

[@eadielemieux4231]

Wow

[@RachelHershberg]

What fusible tape is she using for the tubes? Can't see it.

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

Hi Rachel, i don't think Kathleen used fusible tape, she basted. When i do this technique like on my Quilted Tiles videos i use Roxanne's Basting glue - Nancy

[@DebbieTaylorpdx]

How do you get the tubes from the template to the fabric?

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

We have a couple of videos that may help you with your question: How to Create & Use Bias Strips kzbin.info/www/bejne/o32kZqKvrsmNe68 and How to Mark Your Base Fabric for Machine Appliqué kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGGcZ56jm8qsobM. You can also contact the demonstrator, Kathleen Andrews at kwiltart.com

[@patriciabailey7128]

Where do you start sewing

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

Kathleen Andrews, from KwiltArt (kwiltart.com) was the demonstrator for this video. She'd probably be delighted to direct you if you contact her.
