Jessica, thank you for this tutorial on scrappy cutting. Even after all these years of quilting it always seems so daunting to start....thanks for push! 😁😁🥰Take care

Good morning 😊. I'm always learning new ways to cut fabric, even though I have been quilting for years. I love this star quilt!!! But today, I have to catch up on some canning. Maybe this week I can get some sewing done. Enjoy your day!!😊😊

[@jessica_dayon]

Good luck with your canning! I hope you enjoy making the stars when you are able!

[@shelleyopland4041]

Love your color way. Can’t wait to see it finished.

Great tutorial. Like your simple approach to using up scraps. I'm so excited to join in on this project

[@jessica_dayon]

Wonderful! I'm so glad to hear that!

[@annerankin1191]

This is outside my colour wheelhouse. Really looking forward to see how it looks.xox

[@jessica_dayon]

Thanks!

[@giovannacasadio9600]

Love this block ❤

[@jessica_dayon]

Thanks!

[@lorieshay2216]

This has been so good for me to watch you cut up different sizes and how you just put all those colors together and go with it. I love scrappy but have a hard time with doing scrappy since I try to be too controlling with the colors and prints. I need to just let go and let it be however it turns out. Thanks for your inspiration and tips!

[@jessica_dayon]

I'm glad you found it helpful! It can be difficult to just let go and let it be however it is but it is really rewarding when you do. I hope you try it out and enjoy the process and result!

[@victoriapaetow4376]

Welcome back:)😊

[@jessica_dayon]

Thank you!

[@jeane.2722]

Thank you.

[@jessica_dayon]

Thank you!

[@lauraruthruff4741]

I have missed your videos. Glad to hear you had family time. I am really challenged when it comes to fabric choices. I will pick fabric for a block and then I will not be happy with my choices. Also.. where do you find your ideas for your next quilt?

[@jessica_dayon]

I'll add picking out colors to my list. It is a hard subject for me because I don't think much about it at all and just go with my gut. However, I get asked all the time to talk about it, so I will try! When I'm looking for a pattern that someone else designed, I use Instagram and Pinterest. When I want to make an original quilt design, I sit down an my computer and find one that I've already designed to make or I play around until I design a new quilt pattern and then make that.

[@Colleen-l2z]

How many blocks are you going to make? What size quilt? Awesome ❤

[@jessica_dayon]

I ended up making 90 and the quilt measured 98 1/2" x 108 1/2".

[@sarahwalker4434]

What brand is your cutting mat. Loving where you are going with this quilt. Good to see you back.

[@jessica_dayon]

Thanks!! It's from Riley Blake designed by The Tattooed Quilter. I'm not sure if they make them anymore.

[@nancyw7431]

Love the star blocks. Such a scrappy way to create. Also loving your cutting mat. What brand is it?

[@jessica_dayon]

It's from Riley Blake designed by The Tattooed Quilter. I'm not sure if they make them anymore.

[@marialeon1888]

Hi Jessica, can you show us that Quilt behind you? Thank you. It looks like it’s a beautiful quilt. Can we see it?

[@jessica_dayon]

I'm thinking of showing a quilt a week but I'm still planning what the schedule should look like. In the meantime, you can find that pattern here- jessicadayon.etsy.com/listing/1579190471/two-step-quilt-pattern-layer-cake-quilt

[@joypolk3093]

Would you please list the brand of your white cutting mat. Thank you.

[@jessica_dayon]

It is by The Tattooed Quilter for Riley Blake Designs.

[@karinamcintyre9639]

I have gotten brand new layer cake fabric from Moda with uneven squares. One time one "square" was a strip of 5 inches by 10, a second time, I got three squares in the same layer cake pack that were too small and didn't measure 10x 10. It's so annoying. I stopped buying layer cake fabric from Moda. I buy from other brands, or I cut them my self from my stash.

[@larisasmith3413]

I’ve bought probably hundreds of layer cakes at this point across several brands and I have never had that happen. Why not contact the store you bought it from and tell them? I’m sure they would send you a cut of what you were missing?

[@sheilafruge60]

I had that happen with a layer cake in a Sew Sampler box . It was Riley Blake and measured 9 1/4 to 9 1/2 square
