Total newbie. When using prints can you explain how many of the same print you would need. I know you need 12 pieces but how many repeating of each one?

[@anniedavis6877]

Thank you for your instruction. I do like this one. Will you be doing a block of the month for next year?

[@TinyOrchardQuilts]

I don’t do a traditional block of the month but I’ll be continuing both my scrappy block series (12” blocks well suited for scraps) as well as my block study series (blocks in different precut friendly sizes)

[@mariamaliszewski6212]

What is the name of the fat quarter line you use? The fabrics designs are beautiful!

[@viviansnyder8247]

Love that you encourage us to “be the boss of your own quilting”. This is my kind of quilt most of mine end up unfinished because I get bored easily.

This would also make a great quilt back! Then you’d have a really reversible quilt. Love it Megan!

[@TinyOrchardQuilts]

Woo!! You are a genius!!! I never even thought of that!

[@IdratherbeinHobbiton]

Yes!! I love that idea!

[@lw984]

I love the layout for this quilt. Thank you! Just a suggestion, if you drew a line from corner to corner instead of cutting it, put two contrasting rectangles pieces right sides together, then stitched on both sides of the drawn line, a 1/4 inch away from the line, THEN cut it apart on the line, you would instantly get two 2 blocks and save some time. You also not have to worry about sewing those bias pieces back together. Just a thought! Thanks again for your video!

[@alcasey3034]

This only works if you have squares. If you do this with rectangles then you get quadrilaterals that look funny.

[@nancy9478]

​@@alcasey3034there is a way to sew rectangles, I saw a tutorial sonewhere on yt.

[@melissasullivan9675]

You can add your own “grippy dots” on your ruler by putting small dots of hot glue then letting them dry completely before using. I do this all the time with shoes that get too slick.

I just found my Christmas present to myself! I have been looking for an easy fat quarter pattern for my first quilt, and I love yours. I am new to quilting, but not to sewing, and am finally deciding to put my machine’s quilting accessories to the test. I also followed your link to the fat quarters you used. I actually gasped when I saw Anna Maria’s “Bright Eyes” bundle. Since fabric has never made me do that before, I decided it was a match made in heaven and ordered it. I am so excited, thank you for making my night!

[@alexandrawellington8028]

LOVE this line of fabric, such a great use of those huge prints that are too gorgeous to cut up. Kaffe Fassett would be awesome too. xxx

[@elizabethbarajas5022]

I love quilting haven’t in 15 years busy with work! 😢 But I bought a lot of Gnome Christmas fabric and want to make a few lap quilts for my nephews as gifts. This was a quick and easy way of me doing 10 quilts in the next couple of months that won’t take a long time! Thank you 🙏

This sounds like a good way to quickly make my cat his own little quilt out of medium-sized leftovers from other projects. (He is always on a lap if a quilt is on it so he gets one at some point because he's a good boy who loves quilt snuggles.)

[@constitutionalrepublic1966]

Teach them to sew and they will have markable skills/memory’s with you always. I love sewing and quilting, and my mother taught me the basics, but not to the extent that you can do. I went to high school with a girl who made all her own clothes, and they were far better than anything man made in stores. I’m trying to pick up my knowledge and make more quilts and tailor made clothes because I don’t like most things in stores. Good luck with your grandchildren and sewing projects you all do together. When they have enough skills that you taught them, maybe you could give them a basic sewing machine as a “reward.” This will be a wonderful way to inspire them to sew/quilt with grandma.

I don't quilt, but I'm enjoying seeing you using those tools, the cutting board, and those BEAUTIFUL fabrics. I didn't know about gridded cutting boards, rotary cutters, and those big measuring things. I've used triangles, and T-squares, but not what you have there.

[@susanramsay4189]

Dear Dee: Sewing on the bias like the triangles are, you just have to be careful not to stretch your fabric. You can stitch about 2" and carefully PUSH not pull on thetopfabric to help ease it into the one underneath. Just lift your presser foot push to ease gently and sew a few more inches. It's called "Park and Pinch"
