Delightful Donuts Quilt (Crumb blocks invited.)

[@MartyLawless-kh2jd]

I appreciate that you don't worry about perfection. "good enough" works fior me!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Always!

[@TheRozylass]

You are SOOOOO fun!! As others have said, I too like your attitude. Quilting isn't brain surgery, and no one will die if the corners don't match. What a great way to use crumb blocks, and those extra little cut off HST's. You're so frugal and creative. I really appreciate you showing how you streamline and prep everything. You are such a good teacher!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you so much.

[@lindapearson2376]

I ALWAYS sew the “bonus” 1/2 square triangles, while I am doing the project. I save ALL of them! I have quite a collection now. It’s nice to see that someone else does this! Thanks for showing this project of yours!

[@harryburkett7754]

Love that you incorporated scrappy blocks into the design.

[@MartyLawless-kh2jd]

I love to sew scraps together! Very relaxing and joyful. The donuts are really fun.

[@merrymabelmarket]

I totally agree!

[@denisestilling2810]

Love that you have the HST trimmings ready to go. Neat way to use your scraps.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Glad you like them! The triangle video where we make quilts from those triangles is already out if you haven't seen it yet.

[@koalasez1200]

You had me at cookie sheet 😉. Or in this case donut platter!! What a great use of crumb pieces!! 🥰 The first video I saw of yours, you said “sew sew sew” and that’s what got me hooked. You sound so warm and your voice is wonderful. Love your channel 🥰

[@merrymabelmarket]

Yay! Thank you!

[@bjsmith1575]

Thank you thank you for sharing your streamline methods… you are so brave… when people watch me work at “anything” most think I am strange… productive but strange

[@merrymabelmarket]

You are so welcome!

[@fransak2723]

This looks such a fun and relaxed pattern.

[@merrymabelmarket]

It was fun!

[@peggybeach3301]

This is such a GREAT project and i am really trying to use my scraps...and the extra triangle squares is my favorite to do❤

[@merrymabelmarket]

Me too!!

[@trinam2503]

Love this!!! I love crumb piecing! I dont always have time, but its so nice when I do 😃. I also double sew my corners for bonus HST! So many fun ways to use them 😊 love the way you lay everything out in a way that makes sense to you. Makes sewing time so much more fun and relaxing if your project is set up and ready to go. Thanks for the video! 😃

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you for the kind comment.

[@PetraRobinson-gm8nh]

I love the way you sew with the organizing everything. I do not make quilts but love to make patchwork table runners, bags, cushion covers and storage bags and I have to have everything nice and organized, my brain can not cope otherwise and I would just give up.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you for watching and commenting. It sounds REALLY close to quilting to me...

[@JoyHarper-fq6zh]

I am subbed to a lot of quilting videos, but I jump on yours faster than any of them!! I love your process and your joyful (merry!) way of sharing what you do.

[@katehenry2718]

BOTH of those triangle corners finish the block AND make smaller triangle patches with just another line of stitches 1/2 inch to the tip corner of the whole block. CUt between. Different size hsts can be used for LOTS of other quilts. Don't waste those beauties ))). This is the FIRST video I've seen that mentions this. ))) Just subscribed because of this tip. ))))

[@sandracedar368]

You are SEW delightful; so pleasant; so clear & easy to follow; such a joy. I can’t wait to see what you create with all of your bonus half square triangles: GENIUS🫶

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting!

[@nancybaker9003]

I see tiny squares, no triangles.

[@karenshepard2184]

I have watched this video 3 times! I bought the pattern and I plan to save all my yummy triangles for the video you will share soon. Thank you!

[@merrymabelmarket]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGawoqiuZt5leas Here is the triangle video. It came out awhile ago now. Enjoy!!

[@karenshepard2184]

@@merrymabelmarket Yes of course! I have watched it already and you gave us lots of great ideas for the HST. I was curious how to use the very small ones made from the 2-1/2 inch squares?

[@jeandryja6992]

I love this quilt and how you streamline everything!😊

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you! 😊

[@Sewwithdebee]

Love this and your workflow is marvellous… stress-free quilting at its best - thank you. Isn’t it wonderful to have the hsts for more projects (I keep forgetting to do that), a good reminder for an after project.

[@lindapucillo7875]

This is so colorful! Really beautiful, and you made it look easy. Thanks!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you! 😊

[@marshalucky]

This is the extra stuff I needed to know 🎉

[@MBird-ld6uv]

Okay, I need donuts now! 🍩 😋

[@margaretbaker623]

Another great sewing class, thank you! Love your voice and imagination. Can't wait to see what you do with your bonus HSTs. ⚘️

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you so much! More to come...

[@grmoo7601]

OMG! I LOVE this video. I have sooo many left over fabrics. And I didn’t know where to start to organize them. Especially theme/children because of the projects I do at church and theatre. This will make a great I spy quilt for my grandkids and I can do something with all these leftovers I don’t know what to do with !!! Thank you !!!

[@merrymabelmarket]

That sounds delightful!! (To go with the Delightful Donuts!)

[@MichelleFrazier-ze3xu]

What a beautiful and cheerful quilt! And a great way to use crumbs! Definitely a future project for me, I love your videos!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Wonderful!

[@leannemori9688]

It looks like Life Savers. Pretty.

[@jenniferahlstrom590]

brilliant!! 'bonus half square triangles' sewn before you do any cutting!! mind, blown!! (and I also appreciate that 'good enough' is good enough, lol!)

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you! 😊

[@Susietacoma]

That is an interesting quilt top and even more beautiful in part because you press with your iron as you go. You definitely got me thinking about crumb blocks because your tone on tone blocks are gorgeous! Thank you for sharing your methods (best practices) and designs. Best wishes! -Susan

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you so much!

[@lindarambone5305]

just downloaded the pattern. I'm glad I watched this video. I will use crumb blocks, too. I can work on them when I get bored or frustrated with another project. I like your monochromatic blocks. You make my heart so merry! I love your videos.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Wow, thank you

[@auntdello5286]

Love it! Looks so nice. We do a similar pattern for donation at my church quilt outreach. Ours has sashing and corner stones. I really like your use of crumbs.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Sounds GREAT!

[@Artindi]

So this is the doughnut quilt, that means the half square triangles will make the doughnut hole quilt, right? ;)

[@merrymabelmarket]

Hmmmmmmmmmm..... ponderous!

[@nancyarchibald9095]

I've been using my scrappy pieces making 🐔 chickens, so I'll need to either go shopping for yardage or wait several months for the scraps to build up.

[@merrymabelmarket]

I used yardage for a bunch of these donuts. Yardage can be used well!

[@arvettadelashmit9337]

Your quilt top reminds me of Lifesavers candy in mixed fruit flavors. It makes me happy to remember how good those candies are. Your quilt top is beautiful. I just Subscribed and Shared this video. You have it organized so well, it has to be fun. It was fun watching you today. Thank you. We are getting some much needed rain right now. Thank Goodness.

[@merrymabelmarket]

I agree with you. It was one of the "titles" we contemplated. Yes - it is a fun quilt to make! Thank you for sharing and subscribing.

Good morning!

Sooo nice!😘🥰😍😍 Hello from Australia 🌏🦘❤

[@merrymabelmarket]

Hello 😊 Thank you!

[@SpeakTruthBeKind]

Love your posts 😍 Do you use steam when you are pressing? Thank you! ❤

[@merrymabelmarket]

No. Just a really hot iron. And sometimes (rarely) Best Press.

[@ravakian2859]

Hi, love the idea of saving those HST, how big are those?

[@merrymabelmarket]

when trimmed... 4 inches.

[@estelasteele1173]

I do the same thing when I am snowballing a corner.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Smart!

[@virginiagrenier8572]

I don't mark my fabric - I mark my sewing machine. It works great for smaller units. The large units I'll either press or draw a center line.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Yes - I tried that back in the day. I should have shown that method too. Good call!

[@katehenry2718]

IF you sew the big triangle corners FIRST, will the trims be big enough for the other small corner????

[@merrymabelmarket]

Yes - you could make that work. Though - I think I would rather have the bonus triangles.

[@ksojerio]

More crumb patterns , please

[@merrymabelmarket]

I love them too!
