Welcome back! Here's to a wonderful school year! Looking forward to your videos.

[@sandracedar368]

Very clear & well demonstrated; thank you! Looking forward to your next video🤗

[@elsafischer3247]

Great tutorial as always thank you greetings from Switzerland

[@susanmartinez1485]

WOW! Your instructions are perfect! You certainly took the fear out of sewing this project! Thank you for sharing!

[@diannplatt-roberts8692]

Welcome back! Hope the summer was good for you and your family.

[@valeriebigley8759]

Love the way you demonstrate the curve sewing

[@barbdripsue]

Thank you again for your tutorial. You make it all look easy. ♥️

[@maryharlow2123]

Very clear tutorial. I like all the different layouts. Thank you!

[@sewbecca]

Oooh, this is something I'll need to consider. My guild is asking us to take a 'circle challenge' - and each make a small wall hanging featuring curves. I've *NEVER* tackled them before...this might be a good option!!

[@lpapacek]

I always look forward to your quilt patterns and this one did not disappoint! I will admit when I saw curves I thought, "Nope! Not for me. Too complicated." I'm glad I kept watching because I think it's something I can do! Your style of teaching makes me feel like I CAN do it!

[@donnarossignol5695]

You are a great teacher. Thank you.

[@janwright5844]

So great to see you again !! Welcome back. Great tutorial too. Take care

[@leannenewson4194]

Hi from Australia, great to see you again, I'm looking forward to all your tutorials xx

[@DAGRACE]

YOU'RE A GREAT INSTRUCTOR!!! My machine is broken right now but can't wait to try this and some of your other quilts!!

[@mrob8918]

Great video! I'm inspired to try curves for the first time. Thanks so much.

[@tedipatterson6968]

Fabulous sewing circles tutorial! The way you teach and describe things makes it easy to understand the technique. Thank you!

[@susanharber6488]

Welcome back!!! 🐻 & ⭕️

[@abigaildolinger2754]

Megan, you are a genius! Thanks for explaining how to use the circle ruler to good advantage.

[@barbarasinopoli7690]

Great video, thank you! This is the best explanation of curved piecing I’ve seen. I feel like I can try this now!

[@gamadebdegamadebde]

So glad to have you back, and with a great tutorial. Thank you.

[@kevyharris3644]

Glad to see you back, life has all sorts of demands besides quilting but it's nice to see you again. As usual I learn so much from you.

[@bethkoch11]

Nice to see you, Megan! Curves, yikes! I've been wanting to get more experience with them, and your tutorial was really helpful.

[@sherryfaires7931]

This was a fun tutorial! The way you used this ruler is pretty ingenious! I like it and it makes a more relaxed quilt pattern! Thanks for a fun time!

[@stargoodhand2330]

Love all of your instructions!!!

[@christinawyse9271]

Oh my goodness, thank you, thank you. I have had a very large banner for our church on my sewing room floor for 2+ years. There are numerous curves and I could not figure out why they are not going together. There was no pattern (hence no directions) just a picture which someone had blown up for me. I never thought about the crust and pie connections needing to be different sizes. You are a dream....I can finally get this off my sewing room floor! ❤️ Bless you for your information!

[@calliemtb]

nice explanation of what the left hand needs to do. Thanks

[@michelleinScotland]

Great to see you back. You make curves look so easy; will have to have another go.

[@cassieplayford634]

Love your videos. Thanks for all you do. I can’t wait to try this pattern out. 💕

[@carmenbailey1560]

Awesome quilt, love the bears. My very first quilt was a version of this block, but all the same size block. I actually hand pieced it, the funny part is I started it in my 20’s and finished it in my 60’s. In between that gap life took on a busy role. Still like the block today. Thanks for sharing your version. 👍❤️😊

[@amystephens8653]

Good to see you, Megan! Great tutorial (as always 😉) with super fun fabric!

[@9001012]

Loved this instructional video, thank you !

[@the_echozone]

Outstanding. This is the best explanation and tutorial on sewing curves I’ve seen.

[@maryannecadd796]

Loved your explanation. I've seen this block done before. But you explained the process very clearly. This is definitely a "to do" project!

[@catharina2022]

what a lovely quilt! I have been looking for a nice block to make a quilt for my brother and sister in law, this is the one! thank you!🙋🏼‍♀️🌷🇱🇺

[@TinyOrchardQuilts]

I hope you enjoy it! I liked it so much I made a second one! ❤️

[@robemega]

Love this! So many quilts, so little time

[@julietownsend1869]

excellent lesson, as always! thank you

[@janicebadeau]

This is so beautiful -- the fabric is just the best! Thank you!

[@nbc911]

Wow that quilt is gorgeous. Thank you 😍

[@nancymiller349]

Finally someone who pronounces the word template correctly. LOL.

[@elliefox1419]

Happy to see you back❣️ Curves have been on my list 😬😁 this looks like the perfect project to try them. Thanks. I LOVE your fabric choice, so cute.

[@omisfavorites1054]

Yay! You’re back! Love the blocks and your thorough, encouraging instruction. The fabric is hecka cute:) You always give me confidence that I can make whatever you demonstrate. Thank you!

[@deborahcolby2670]

Great video and you make it look so easy! Thank you for the free pattern.

[@jannmier3487]

It is good to see you again. You are a great teacher.

[@TinyOrchardQuilts]

Thanks! It’s so good to be back :)

[@leslieschmidt9765]

Great explanation! You made it understandable and non-threatening. I have done circles once before, but I may tackle them again. Thanks.

[@3catscarefreelife]

Thank you for a fantastic video on curved piecing. I made a quilt with curved pieces and it was a huge learning curve, you make it look so easy!🤓

[@craftyak2]

Thank you Megan for this wonderful tutorial on curves. A quilt like this is in my dreams but who knows some bright morning it may come to fruition! Have a great day!

[@brendaholder2260]

You are a wonderful instructor ! Thank you for sharing your gift ,your quilt turned out beautiful 👏

[@elizabethcollins8817]

Thank you for sewing (and explaining in detail) at a pace I could easily follow. I do tend to stay away from patterns with curves but with your video I may just need to practice 😉🧵🪡✂️

[@juliemumford6642]

Fascinating!

[@sadiejosiemom]

Welcome back! I hope you and your family had a great summer. The math of this really challenges my math deficient brain. That ruler would be mandatory for me to do it. But I don't think this is in my immediate future because something that really stood out to me is the quilting and the large open spaces created by these blocks - I'm not a FMQ nor can I afford to send them out. Straight line quilting on this would be super daunting for me. I love the way yours turned out - really cute!

[@TinyOrchardQuilts]

Straight line quilting would be great on any quilt! I have quilted many a quilt with straight lines :)

[@lizj8824]

Thanks again for a great tutorial. I really enjoy your instructional technique and look forward to your posts.

[@TinyOrchardQuilts]

Thanks Liz!

[@rosejensen7855]

Thank you! I am a curve and swirl girl living in a world of corners. Love dresden, wedding ring, orange peel, cathedral window, etc but love a little modern. Have been a little afraid of curves. This makes me think I have a chance.

[@sandraengstrand2784]

What a super-sweet quilt!!! You make it look easy 🤪 Congratulations on growing your *quilt orchard* here on KZbin, so very fruitful!!! Love you!! Miss seeing y’all! 🧵🪡✂️💕

[@TinyOrchardQuilts]

Thanks sandra!! I feel like I haven't been at a meeting in ages! I'll be at the next one :)

[@sandraengstrand2784]

@@TinyOrchardQuilts I am not currently a member, busy helping with grandsons and other things-- not quilting a lot. Tell everyone hello!!! 🫶🏻

[@donnastjules8157]

Great video! I love your teaching style. I would love to learn how to make and sew a label on my quilts as I've never done it but see the value

[@elizabethgilmon1419]

Very nice! Thank you

[@AmandaEvenstar]

I love it! Can't wait to give it a try! Love your videos as well Megan

[@loridavison6672]

Thank you

[@barbareemoore4247]

Awesomeness

[@mariaredpath3900]

Thank you for such an excellent tutorial. I usually pin curved pieces like crazy but next time I’m going to try your method.

[@judithburke1539]

Make some pot holders for Christmas gifts for practice pieces. Two birds, one stone. I usually use one layer of cotton batting and one layer of heat blocking material for filling then a backing piece. Be sure to include instructions that they are NOT to be used in the microwave because the metal filaments will get hot enough to set the cotton fabric and batting on fire. Have fun!

[@judithburke1539]

You can either sew around the edges, backing and face fabrics right sides together with an opening for turning right side out and topstitch the edges or sew a binding around the raw edges.

[@coreygilles847]

So cool

[@sharonlyman3029]

I see my comments were deleted. If I upset you, I apologize. I love your channel and tutorials. This one is great. Very creative.

[@gwynwellliver4489]

I love it. I have some old C+S layer cakes. Thank you for showing use that curves aren't scary. What if you don't have a seam guide like yours?

[@mariaerickson9939]

Such a great tutorial - thank you!

[@michelletothill8551]

Thank you, this is a great pattern. I am not in the market for new rulers right now, although that looks like a good one. I likely will do improve curves.

[@yvonnephillips4680]

Must admit I was just saying to a friend yesterday that I have not attempted curves. Your explanation and demonstrations is excellent. Thanks 🇦🇺

[@nicolebeauchamp7622]

Yes, once you explained the maths it made sense. Love you videos.

[@jeancoody5993]

Nice tutorial. I want to try curves.

[@jaclynramsier5271]

Great video! You remind me of a highschool friend so I get nostalgia from your videos, as well as great tips! You are always so clear and interesting! What part of the country are you from? Trying to place the accent.

[@dawnhale3335]

Glad

[@kimgcrafts]

This is such an awesome video. I’m excited to try it sometime soon! Can I ask where did you get your seam guide for your sewing machine?

[@krisvanallen]

I see that you have a Juki as well. Love mine! What kind of seam guide are you using and where did you find it?

[@hey_virginia]

Question - is it possible to use paper templates with a rotary cutter? Or do you have to use fabric scissors, like cutting out a garment pattern, because there's no ruler edge for the rotary cutter to glide along? thank you for FINALLY explaining curved piecing in a way that makes sense to my brain, I have been holding off on trying curves because I have already blown through my sewing supplies budget for the year and am holding off on buying any more rulers or acrylic templates!

[@katoz97]

Curves can be scary for many. Thanks for making this video to help reduce the fear. Question on the leftover pie and crust. Why not put then together to create a 7th block in the bundle? Or for another project?

[@TinyOrchardQuilts]

You could certainly save them for another project but they don't fit together as there is a big gap between them. You could grab a scrap and cut the missing piece though :)

[@kathleenswan4184]

Lovely quilt! Where did you get your seam guide? I’m always looking to improve my 1/4” seams.

[@lucy7b]

❤❤❤

[@paulettesuddarth3850]

What is the name of the adorable fabric you used?

[@maxineiles6806]

Cleaver girl

[@velmamendes2949]

Where did you purchase the pincushion/box?

[@lorraineschloss9703]

I don’t want to buy a $50 ruler - wish you showed how to use templates

[@loridavison6672]

Thank you
