I have watched quilting videos for a long time. Finally I have found someone who does wonderful work with simple patterns. Just what I needed. I've never hand quilted but after watching how you do it I'm going to give it a try. Thank you, Sue.

I think those 2.5 "pieces you've made into blocks are very nice. When you put them together and match the colours, it makes another pattern which I really like - trip around the world. Keep on going, it will turn out beautiful.

Oh, I was so hoping you were going to show us how you actually hand quilt. But I learned how to use my QSnap frames, and that it doesn’t have to be so taught as I thought it did. You learn something new every day. That line-drawn cats fabric, I bought some of that online 😻! I love the back of your blue-and-white vintage quilt, especially the four-patches scattered throughout. Thanks for your video, I hope you’ll do some hand quilting in a future video 😊

The scrappy blocks laide with the blue in the center reminds me of a trip around the worrld.. They look lovely. You could make a medallion quilt with those four in the middle, then different blocks in borders around it. make 1 more block and put the four in the corners of the quilt. Thanks for sharing

If you don't like the trip around the world look, I like the idea of putting orphan blocks in between, but I would also do sashing between the squares-blocks and the orphan blocks, to give the eye a place to rest. Instead of orphan blocks, I think flying geese units would look nice too. Anyway, love to hear what you end up doing!

Good morning Sue this is Marion Jay and I just wanted to introduce myself. I’m 92 years old next week that was 27th of November and so I can’t do very much but I love fabrics. I spend a lot of money buying that cord and things I just love to look at them and I do make a few things. My bags are pretty but far from being perfect, but I don’t mind, I’ve already had my perfect days. I was a mess of embroidery for hand. I made Irish stand stressless for seven years and they really did a lot of damage to my eyes so I have Mac generation and can’t do it anymore but I have a lot of fun and I find you work very interesting. I never dreamed of buying men’s shirts to cut up, but it would even be fun to do And that I love buttons too, so yeah, I’ve found your work and I want you to know that I’m not a good creator of the quilt however I do make little ones and then not perfect either but I do a lot of Jack and Jill not Jack and Jill but Raggedy Ann and stuff and Barbie and I love it so thank you so much and I, yeah I just signed up to your channel and we’ll see where it goes.

I almost always start my morning with a few hours of quilting and a cup of tea, and spend afternoons working up in my sewing room. These days, I'm losing a lot of time to my cat--- he is young and wants me to play with him for hours, so I have to set boundaries there!

Hello! Your 2nd layout, with the blues coming toward the center, gives a trip around the world type block, which I have always liked. In your first layout, where you thought of using orphan blocks in between, made me want to use a plain or neutral in between,,.just a thought. You make beautiful things, and I'm sure whatever you decide in the end will be great. I am enjoying your videos so much! Mavis

Thank you for the feedback! I'm thinking of making a full-size trip around the world at this point.

I like the way you sort your scraps. Mines need help. I have them by colors, but I need to cut them into shapes. I like the trip around the world, the last version of your blocks.

Best of luck! I find the best sizes to keep on hand are 2 1/2" squares and strips. It's a good place to start!

I love your channel! Just discovered you. Kate on 'The Last Homely House' KZbin made a quilt very similar using Kaffe Fasset jelly rolls. The blocks were all different, but were stunning when put together. I think the blocks are the same size as yours. I think you should keep making them. ❤

Keep going with the rainbow. Those can be fun with the final arranging. Also a sum of its parts, by the end the totality will shine so you don't see the individual bits that bug you. (Like when you rescue vintage blocks...) Worst case scenario - it can be a nice donation quilt or quilt top.

Thanks for giving me a different perspective to consider! Some of my friends are in a guild which works with charity donations, so if it turns out unfortunately, I'll give it to them.

With your “Trip Around the world’ blocks, I like them. Either way you laid the out would look cool. (Maybe you count make a couple with green [or blue, or pink…] going diagonally through the centre and see how that looks together with opposing red diagonal ones? Just a random thought 💭. I would definitely keep going though, love their look!

Thank you for the suggestion, that is something I hadn't considered. That quilt is on teh back burner for now-- I still haven't gotten back to making more blocks.

guild swap quilt. You said you used the Deb Tucker Wing Clipper and each unit measures 1.5” x 3” and you used 4.5” squares to start out of which you got 4 units. I love the aqua border and the black background. Would you mind if I showed your quilt as an example for the swap?

The reason your qsnaps crack is because they shouldn’t be popped off. I learned on flosstube that you should slide them off. I also use them for hand quilting. You can buy replacements. Your flying geese are beautiful.

My name is Sue, too, and I'm from northwestern Pennsylvania 🙂 I haven't been quilting as long as you have, but my Mom loved color and fabric and quilting, so I've been surrounded by it all my life (40 years). I also hand quilt and make scrappy quilts. I had to be creative because I couldn't afford to buy new fabric (well, my fabric is usually "new" as in never used before). I have since made a quilt using a current fabric collection and found it rather boring 🤭 even though it was beautiful fabric.

I feel the same way. I used to have fabric envy when I saw everyone's perfectly coordinated quilts, but now I have fully embraced and love the scraps!

I agree with your other viewers. It looks great as view two. Just make a couple more blocks and make a laprobe or toddler quilt, but who says it's too busy.

Your scrappy blocks at the end of the video are like a pattern from Bonnie Hunter, that she calls scrappy trips. Because you have red squares running diagonally, the whole pattern will look nice, in my opinion, when it’s complete. I did one like this where my middle diagonals were navy and dark gray. Hope that helps!

Bonnie Hunter is my inspiration for this block-- I've made a few trip-around-the-world quilts before, but wasn't sure my colors were going to work this time around. Thank you for the feedback!

My opinion on your quilt blocks: I saw enough contrast in color and value for the pattern to be instantly seen. On screen the colors looked great. I would put the blocks together like you show at the end and finish it for sure! But you see it in person and if your heart doesn’t sing… could you make a few more blocks and then decide? I hope you continue. Loved the video! Your camera person is doing a great job!
