I absolutely love seeing your videos pop up in my feed. You inspire me so much. You are so relatable. No fancy craft rooms, no fancy fabrics or equipment. You are what so many of us woman are. When watching other KZbinrs, we feel we need all the bells and whistles, and in turn, fear and doubt sets in. You use affordable materials, your down to earth, you have fun, and enjoy every stitch. You truly are a joy to watch. Thank you so much for sharing!

I know just what you mean. I started out trying not to spend much money on quilting, because I couldn't afford to. To some degree, that's still the case! But now I no longer envy the special fabric lines and top of the line equipment, because I know I can work with what I have and love how it turns out. It took some time to be able to say, "you know what, I like what I'm making, and that's what matters," but I'm so happy to be there now!

Red and white quilts are some of my favorite. I decided years ago to make a small collection of them for myself. With this quilt, I picked out some blocks that could all finish at the same size, and I just made one or two a day until there were enough. It can be a bit-by-bit project. That being said, retirement absolutely allows for more quilting time!

@fromsmallthings50927 күн бұрын
It's absolutely better late than never! They say there are "project people" and "process people." Meaning some people find the highest value in having a completed quilt, and some value the process of quilting the most. I'm a "process" person; once I finish a quilt, I don't really think about it anymore. If you're the same type, it doesn't matter how late you start, each day that you get to sew will be fulfillng in itself. (AND you'll have finished projects!) I love quilts set on point, also, but I still make mistakes setting them up more often than I should! They can be tricky for me.

I'm glad to hear the color catchers have been working for you, too. They really are indispensable, especially with high contrast colors. I hope you have a great time making your sampler!

OK, I'm a little spooked by this vid. Just yesterday I cut scraps to make yoyo's. Then was looking at my husband's ties and was thinking...would he miss them? Would he notice if they turned up in a quilt? And here you are... 😊

Haha, I guess it means you'll have to go for it!

I love your quilts. Thanks for sharing. I just started hand quilting and I hope to one day get a fraction as good as your are. God Bless.

As with most things, practice makes perfect! I've been quilting for 33 years, and there are people whose stitches are far neater and closer than mine. But for me, the most important thing is enjoying the process. Keep going, and enjoy yourself!

I have that same pin cushion - It was in my MIL’s stash when she gifted it to me! Also, I use a small scrap of soap as a conditioner for my thread.

I got that pin cushion at the Pearl Buck estate gift shop years ago.

I noticed amizon sells bars of bees wax, I think I'm going to grab it for quilting thread, you can cut it into smaller chunks and it comes in a 4 pack about the size of soap bars ;) My problem is I'm Candian so its harder to access some of things, or the cost of shipping is ridiculous

I've used bees wax before and it worked, but I do prefer the silicone. I'm sure bees wax is better environmentally. I've heard that shipping costs are very very high, it's prohibitive.

Hi, I was directed to your channel from Brenda, from Conquering Mt Scrapmore and I had to tell you I like what I see. ❤

I love seeing the variety of quilts you make and the methods you use. It’s all so inspirational. I must use more colour catchers at a time and then `I’ll get better results. In the Uk we don’t have the same shopping opportunities that you seem to have. Thank you 🎉
