[@debbiebuttars5598]

I love this quilt. I’m in the process of building up my Quilter Courage. And it will be ready around Christmas when I finish sewing my gifts. Thanks for your awesome tutorials! 👏❤️👏❤️👏❤️👏

[@susanbrown7788]

great tutorial as always. I appreciate that all of your tutorials teaching is explained simply. Thank you for that. I notice that you don't have a "super thanks" button so that we can buy you coffee or whatever you drink. Have you considered adding this ? Thanks for the free printable.

[@PinCutSew]

I will look into the superthanks, I have the option to add it, but wasn’t sure how people would feel about it, so thanks for saying that 🤗

[@cherylynn927]

You are very creative. Love your quilt and thank you for sharing your pattern! You are a good teacher. 😊

[@gigi2fun]

Thank you!! You made sashing less scary, I am a newbie!

[@PinCutSew]

Oh good!

[@Loriann3616]

Adorable 🩵

[@VikingLander]

Thanks for the spontaneous tip about the rotary blades! I stopped you well made tutorial and immediately ordered some!

[@michelinecrouch8682]

Love this quilt! Thank you

[@michellemacdonald0203]

Fantastic tutorial, this has given me the courage to attempt my 1st sashing. Thank you for taking the time and the awersome tips

[@journeyofamidwestquilter]

I just love your tutorials! Thank you for this video. Also, thank you for the link to the rotary blades! I just ordered a pack. I had enough Amazon points saved up that I was able to get the for free! 🥰 I use an Olfa rotary cutter, and I typically use only Olfa blades. However, I noticed that the last pack I got, the blades don't seem to last as long, and as you said, they are so expensive! I hope the titanium blades last longer. At the very least, they are far less expensive than the ones I've been buying. So, that's already a plus! Thanks again!

[@angrob3304]

I don’t add water to my iron. I use a misting water bottle instead. Completely stops spitting and water streaking 😊

[@deloresrast8543]

Love your quilt!!!

[@craftyak2]

Very pretty quilt Nikki. Thank you for the great info.

[@jacquipayne7346]

got your ebook about sewing classes and I've already had two sessions =) there's a big interest in my area and I can't wait to add more dates and camps in the summer! thank you!

[@PinCutSew]

Yay, that’s so great!! 🙌🏻

[@pamstrong8709]

Lovely quilt and terrific lesson in sashing! Thanks Nikki! I have previously purchased those titanium blades and like them very much also. Love your channel.

[@heidi6308]

I don't cut my sashing ahead of time. I leave it in a long strip, sew it on my block, THEN cut it. Voila! perfect length. lol

[@knittykatstudio]

Very pretty quilt! Thanks for sharing the process of making it. 😊

[@wandaadams1772]

I am definitely a coffee drinker. I drink my coffee sweet and creamy. My grandmother started me drinking coffee and she would pour the creamer and sugar in to. I drank lattes before lattes were a thing. Lol.

[@QuiltTheDayAway]

Love your channel. Adorable quilt 💜

[@lucilaflores4912]

It is very pretty! Thank you for sharing the pattern.

[@deloresrast8543]

Thank you for the pattern!!!

[@baseballquilter]

Wow! Congratulations on your book. Love your quilt blocks.

[@marshasetering3143]

I love your quilt. Love the tips for sashing. Will be giving it a try soo

[@beatricevonkanel1630]

Thank you!

[@ceegee1070]

Thank you, this was exactly what I was needing to know! I love everything you do!

[@craftdipper]

I've always been puzzled about sashing - you made it so clear! Even down to being sure to cut selvedge to selvedge even when you need longer strips - thanks for all that detail👌✂️💕

[@rhondahallet8413]

I use black and decker steam iron. I like the metal iron plate more than the nonstick teflon. They are heavy enough to do the work for you, they last forever, and they put out a lot of steam. I have tried the expensive irons and they don't last or they leak. Unless you are going to spend $1000 plus on an iron Black and Decker is the best. The last one I bought w was on sale for $19.99. Great deal and gets the job done. You can use tap water too.

[@craftdipper]

Beautiful quilt!

[@pammeinzer6757]

Very nice!!!! Thanks 😊

[@joycebeck2518]

Great tutorial. Beautiful quilt. Many thanks!

[@pvdw1964]

Thanks for the clear tutorial. I also ordered the titanium blades here in the Netherlands!

[@helenglover4758]

I have just found your channel. Thoroughly enjoying it and have already binged several episodes today while sitting and stitching hexies.

[@karenherndon1811]

Great tips! Thanks!

[@deliad8826]

I so enjoy your channel. I recently purchased a Moda scrap bag and your tutorial and beautiful quilt is the inspiration I was looking for. I also am testing the free motion quilting water and would appreciate your insight.

[@myrahaner942]

I'm in the market for a new iron as well. Mine has been spitting and recently started leaking from the base. It's very overwhelming trying to navigate all the options and prices for irons. My friend is a quilter and she recommended the Pursteam iron. It's not expensive and has good reviews. I'm leaning in that direction. I've read reviews for the really expensive irons and I'm not convinced they are worth the money.

[@PinCutSew]

I agree about the expensive irons! Thanks so much, I will check that one out.

[@angrob3304]

Try not adding water to the iron, use a misting water bottle instead. Stops all spitting and water streaking. I think it also prolongs the life of the iron😊

[@vickirobles3406]

I love the titanium rollerblades!!! Can’t go wrong!!!

[@vickirobles3406]

I love my Panasonic Irons!

[@lindaricher5359]

Thank you I am just going crazy trying to get my dashing right.

[@Simplesavemoney]

That's great.! 🧡🧡🧡

[@beckypetersen2680]

I would cut those sashings by cutting a 16.5" cut and then subcutting at 2.5"

[@winningnumbers]

Do you add batting and backing? what about binding? Wish you'd show all that too.

[@christsgrain]

Lovely

[@lisacantone5372]

What do you use for your design board? Did you make it or purchase it?

[@PinCutSew]

It’s made from felt sound proofing squares I bought on Amazon and stuck to the wall with 3M strips 👍🏻 Works great!

[@betteolivieri7644]

what is the tool that you used when you were safety pinning the quilt sandwich? great video

[@PinCutSew]

It’s called a Kwik Klip, makes a huge difference!

[@barbslack4302]

I was watching another video yesterday and was crushed that you said don’t make your own curtains! I was ready to buy fabric and the curtain pleat tape…should I go to the store?

[@PinCutSew]

You can make them if you want!! I just prefer every other genre of sewing 🤣. Although I’m intrigued by the idea of pleating them, that sounds kinda fun.

[@dcwatashi]

Thanks for the info on the titanium rotary cutter blades. However, I’ve upgraded to Martelli much better rotary cutter than that Fiskars. Vanessa from the channel called the crafty Gemini is the only one who teaches people how to cut your fabric with a ruler. At the minute marker of 12 minutes 20 seconds where you’re cutting sashing again you’re not using the ruler and the fabric correctly You are right handed therefore, you should be cutting your strips going from right to left. Going from left to right you risk going off course with your rotary cutter and cutting into the main portion of your fabric The majority of your fabric should be to the left of your ruler if you are right handed The ruler is there to protect your good fabric that has not been cut yet

[@PinCutSew]

Hmmm, this is interesting, because if I do it that way, I can't line up the ruler lines with my fabric's cut edge. So are you saying I should be using the mat's lines for measurements? In which case, the ruler doesn't really need lines at all ... I'll say, after decades of doing it this way, I don't see myself reforming, haha!

[@dcwatashi]

@@PinCutSew i’ll have to watch her video again, but I believe that she uses two rulers maybe. I have the Martelli cutting mat which is laser printed something like that so I always use my markings on the mat. But now I want to find that video again lol. I’m left-handed so, I have the ruler on the right, protecting the rest of my fabric and then I’ll cut with my left hand

[@marlenejones6266]

Ok i have to ask...was this room oncea bathroom? Or a closet? Im just a nosy old bag, i just turned 75 on the 28th june. Im teaching myself to quilt and your title caught my attention about doing the sashing the right way. So yes im intrigued by it.

[@PinCutSew]

Haha! The previous owner had it as an office but I think it might have been the houses original mud room and that was the back door. The house was added onto in 1959, but this room was original, That’s my theory.

[@suehuber7722]

How does 2 x 26 equal 54?

[@sylviahamilton3124]

Nice quilt, but you really stumbled with the math, it was confusing. Sometimes you said 54 and sometimes 56, when in actuality it was 52. It was a good thing you were marking it at the halfway point and then measuring again, otherwise the strips would be too long.

[@PinCutSew]

I’m so sorry, I am notorious for terrible quilt math! I even made a video called I can’t do quilt math 😬😂. Yes, it should be 52.

[@bobbiwalkingstick1993]

I was screaming 52 ... But think it was 54 🤣 I'm terrible at quilt math, too🤣🤦🤷

[@ConkreteMan]

26 x 2 = 52, but then she said 54 and I wondered why we needed to an 2 inches. Then she said 56 and I was like “wait, what?” It all worked out in the end though. Whew! Stressful. 😂

[@davina845]

I have a Juki hzl g220 with a horizontal spindle to hold thread. My quilting thread keeps falling off the spindle probably because of the small cylinder that protrudes from the center of the thread. Can I use quilting thread on this machine?

[@janem3378]

So funny......quilt math...

[@SuperBettyboop23]

Thank you so much for the titanium blades Great price I just ordered on myself❣️✂️🪡🧵
