Interesting method, thank you for sharing. Good thing about it is that it does not require a lot of space to put the front, the wadding and the back together. Seems more achievable for people like me who only have their dining table to use for sewing. All the best!

Brilliant. No faffing or waffling on. Straight to the point with simple to follow along instructions. I've been doing similar for years and it's refreshing to be able to see work evolve quite quickly as you are working. Scrap quilts are beautiful however they turn and represent the true beauty of quilting. Inexpensive, no fancy sewing machine or must have gadgets. This could be made from clothing from loved ones and be a wonderful memory quilt. Well done you for getting this method out there. Look forward to seeing what comes next. All the best to you.

It's such a shame that nowadays quilting/patchwork etc has become somewhat of an extremely expensive hobby. Your kind of made to feel if you don't have all the must have bits and bobs that whatever you do won't be good enough. Quilting and patchwork was a necessary part of life mainly for the poor at the same time using resources that were available, mainly clothing and they managed perfectly well without the mod cons. I struggle with all the measurements and all the jargon that comes with it so I pretty much go with the flow. I use cotton sheets or calico instead of wading so it's more of a bedthrow with some additional weight to it turns out I found my thing using this. ( posh word I think it's called a coverlet) in my day it was called a counterpain. Would be great if you could do a video on using alternatives to wadding/batting just a small cot size to show people how it turns out.
@JoSmith-wellhousestitches10 ай бұрын
@@debzl8990 I like go with the flow. I did have some vintage 1940s sheets/blankets that would have been ideal for batting replacements, but sadly I have used them all for other projects. I will look into other alternatives for batting as it is very expensive and repurposing and reusing is what I like to do.
@debzl899010 ай бұрын
You will be looking at any material that you can do a little sample on now. I love the concept of the Japanese sashiko and mix it up with patch work. Basically there is no wadding /batting. Just layers of fabric. Eg get an old sheet and sew directly onto anyway you like, using bits of any fabric, hand sew or machine sew you can do applique and beautiful hand embroidered stitches and you keep going until the sheet is full. When a hole appears you sew a patch on it. The more you do the heiver it gets. So in theory the bed throw will last for years and years because you just continue to fix and patch it up. I love the feeling of blankets on a bed and the drape is lovey. I'm not fond of quilts/duvets blankets provide a sort of comfort weight. Old quilts hang in museums and are admired by people who don't say omg it's dreadfully wonky and dosent match up at all. It's a thing of useful beauty and still holds its own. I'm on a mission to make a 100% recycled bedthrow using old curtain lining, curtains, shirts and jeans. Just going to run with whatever pops into my head. Hope you manage to find something at some point to do a little video about reusing whatever you can get your hands on. 😊

Thank you for your video. I have a question: doing the math, 1/2 inch of strip/sashing goes on one quilted square and 1/2 inch on the next quilter square. But where the other 1/2 inch goes ? Doesn’t that create a space between the 2 squares where you have only the sashing with nothing in between ? Like an “empty sashing space “ ! Hope you understand my question.
@JoSmith-wellhousestitches11 ай бұрын
Thank you for your question which I totally understand, and it makes perfect sense that there would be a void of 1/2". I did try just using 1" strips before settling on the 1 1/2" but it was all too tight and difficult to join, I think it is because of all the bulk of the layers of fabric and the batting which take up a little extra fabric on each seam when pressed. I hope my reply makes sense. Jo ☺️😊

Hi Thank you for your kind comment and question. The strips that join the squares together and rows are 3.5 cm wide. The binding around the edge is 7 cm wide, which is folded in half. I hope this helps. I will try and remember to add both inches and cm in future videos, though most quilting is done in inches because it is mostly American, here in the UK we use cm but when I was growing up we used inches, so I am able to use both measurements. 😊😊

Hola, gracias por tu amable comentario y pregunta. Las tiras que unen los cuadrados y las filas tienen 3,5 cm de ancho. La encuadernación alrededor del borde tiene 7 cm de ancho y se dobla por la mitad. Espero que esto ayude. Intentaré recordar agregar pulgadas y cm en videos futuros, aunque la mayoría de los acolchados se hacen en pulgadas porque son principalmente estadounidenses, aquí en el Reino Unido usamos cm, pero cuando era niño usábamos pulgadas, así que puedo Utilice ambas medidas.

Hi from Ohio! Are your completed quilted squares butting up against each other under the blue sashing strips? It seems there would be a gap where there's no batting within the blue strips. I definitely want to do this, and I love that the backing fabrics are an assortment, making the quilt reversible.
@JoSmith-wellhousestitches11 ай бұрын
Hi there from the UK. Yes it does seem tike there would be a gap, you would think you should use 1" sashing strips which I tried first, but it didn't work so I used the 1 1/2" strips. I think all the bulk of two layers of fabric and the batting takes up more fabric than expected on the seams. If 1/4" doesn't work for you try 3/8" . Jo 😊😊
