Hello! What a beautiful project! I'd love to have a whole bedding set in that pattern. My daughter and I are both learning and I'd like to thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. You make sewing fun! Have a Blessed day! ♡♡♡

It is great to hear that you and your daughter are learning together! This would make a beautiful bed set!

I recently rediscovered sewing at age 53 (haven't sewn since my 20s) and am having a blast learning all kinds of crafts from your channel. In fact, I've had such success at the projects I've attempted, I am gaining confidence to plan to make a quilt! Thank you!

Seriously, this is a genius way to do cathedral window, many thanks.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Thank you so much! We love this method!!

[@MsBeachLizard]

I've been working on a Cathedral Windows quilt (queen). I clicked on this because I wanted to see how the pillow was done -- specifically how to attach the backing. Way more simple than I thought. Seams I was worried about nothing really. But making the windows in this "origami envelope" method is MUCH easier than the traditional method -- and faster. It is also much more accurate (for me). I haven't decided whether I will hand-stitch or machine-sew the windows open. As for the pillow, I will make an envelope style backing so the pillow form can be removed for washing the case (or replacing the pillow form itself). Thanks for the video.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Thank you for sharing! We're glad this made that project a little easier for you! Merry Christmas! 🎄~Leah

Such a beautiful pattern.....I learned this pattern in the early 80's and it was all hand sewn...I am going to have to try this way now...it is absolutely my favorite pattern!!!

[@ShabbyFabrics]

That is such a great story! It is a beautiful pattern. - Yajaira

I made a Cathedral Window quiLt once, it ended up being a pillow. You make it look so simple I may have to try again. It is so beautiful when you see a whole quilt made with this pattern.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

This is such a beautiful pattern! Thank you for watching! - Sophie

I calculated it will take me 506 10 x 10 inch squares to make my king sized quilt! That’s not counting the colorful squares!! I may have to settle for a pillow too! 😉

[@terresexton208]

Jen, what an excellent video to making cathedral quilt squares. I have to say, It makes me miss my grandmother. This was her favorite quilt to make. She hand sewed all of hers and one of her quilts she actually took and hand tied the centers instead of quilting. ;) We still have some of her pillows that she made. When I have time, I'm going to have to give this a try. Looks easy enough, but extremely time consuming, so I will have to set aside some time. LOL.... thanks again....

[@ShabbyFabrics]

I'm so glad we could remind you of your grandmother's love of Cathedral Quilt Squares! Sounds like she was an amazing quilter :) those pillows of hers are such a treasure! Thanks for watching and taking time to comment - you will love working on this project!

loved this tutorial and I was able to make the pillow in 2 nights (after baby was asleep). Will share at some point on Twitter or instagram! thanks again

[@ShabbyFabrics]

That is awesome to hear that you were able to complete your pillow so quickly! It's amazing what moms can accomplish after baby is asleep :) We look forward to seeing your pillow on IG or Twitter!

@@ShabbyFabrics so I had a try. It turned out awful. Nothing to do with your tutorial. I am new to a sewing machine as well as patchwork. So I'm going to start with easier things. Squares. Denim with some lace on. Maybe a rag one. A cushion. I think I ran before I could walk.

[@katiewest7908]

Wow! When I first did Cathedral Windows, we used a much smaller template, all hand sewn, and no repeated fabrics. This is so much easier!💙

[@ssw1950]

I have this going, but hand sewing. I find it more relaxing and can take it with me once I have the squares folded. I love the idea of the template for pressing the raw edge to start. I had not thought about that so it was aha moment. Thanks!

[@ssw1950]

Also I do not sew the back and front and turn as you have shown. I sandwich them together and sew .25 seam and do a binding around like you would a quilt. This also gives you a chance to add some color accent binding.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting! So happy that we were able to an aha moment! We love those!

[@wrennspencer3512]

I helped my grandmother make blocks for her quilt when I was 11. I've wanted one for my bed ever since. But I'd had a hard time finding sizes for the traditional squares & how to put it together. Thank you so much for this video! I'm starting mine July 4th.

[@andsewforth]

Jen, Love all your videos. Your cheerful presentation brightens my day. I so wish, though, that you would either get an extension bed table for your machine or have someone cut a hole in your table to sink your machine in. Having a nice flat surface to sew on is so much easier. Trying to sew on the narrow machine bed causes lots of frustration. I sunk my machine years ago and I’ll never go back. Mwah!

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Thank you for that suggestion! I'll pass that along to Jen and let her know it's been helpful to you! :) - Morgan

[@allisonh5298]

After watching your video yesterday, I made this pillow. It took me 4 hours, but that includes time (about an hour) contemplating my fabric stash and doing the math to determine the larger square size needed to use smaller blocks. I used lite weight heat and bond to secure the smaller squares and triangles in place. Most of the labor for this is in the cutting and pressing (~2hrs). If you can edgestitch curves with some precision then you can sew this pillow too! Mine is supercute bright green solid with pinks and blues panes. I'll definitely be doing this again.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Wow! You made this pillow so quickly, great job! Thanks for watching!

Another amazing tutorial, I like to change my pillow's (in England we say cushions) but the same thing I like to change my pillows for the seasons (spring summer autumn (fall) winter) and this will be wonderful for having the colors of the 4 seasons and I'm thinking Christmas fabric and may be use your Christmas shabby shapes in one or two of the windows.

[@aleksandralukac4068]

Hello, I just found this video, because I wanted to learn this technique, and I did! I made a make up bag for my cousin as a present, and hope she'll like it. Anyway, I would appreciate it if you could show all the steps more in detail. Like in the end, when you talked about closing the pillow, I wasn't quite sure, how thick my seam should be and so on. :) But the rest I really loved. Thank you.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

That is so great to hear! Glad this tutorial was helpful for you! For closing your pillow, you will lay your cathedral window piece (pillow front) and your chosen backing fabric right sides together. You will then sew around the perimeter using a quarter inch seam allowance, leaving a four or five inch opening. Then, you will turn your pillow right-side-out and stuff with your desired filling. Once it is stuffed, you will use a whip stitch to sew the opening shut! Please let me know if you need any additional instructions :)

[@hawkeyeannieful]

Great idea, love your videos. Maybe practice more for your video. You did a lot of starting out of your concept , then changing your mind, put out fabric, then changing your mind, move squares into place, then changing your mind, start to sew, then change your mind, etc., etc. and can imagine it's a little nerve racking at times when you're explaining idea. Trust me, you are amazing, just didn't seem confident much on this video. Use play back and see what I mean. I don't mean any harm. Keep making these videos. Ideas are great.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

We always make sure practice our videos and projects before filming. In order to keep our tutorials genuine and not scripted or stiff we think it is important to keep them as if we are teaching a friend. Making decisions and adapting in the moment is something that everyone who sews can relate to. Thank you so much for your input and for taking the time to watch!

[@beckyezra1]

When you fold the fabric (smile form to cover the small color square) do use a glue, it will help you to see if they are identical and if not, to peel it and try again. only a suggestion.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

That is a great suggestion! Much less cumbersome than a pin! Thank you :)

[@septemberbaby0903]

I use Elmer's School Glue .. washes out also and it's only about a buck in the Dollar Store. It comes in stick form also.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Yes! Elmer's glue absolutely works, too since it is water soluble! Thank you for watching!

Good sewing suggestion at 16:22! Saves time.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Thank you so much :)

[@jwstanley2645]

Thanks. Great options and possibilities. You did not mention a binding and I am thinking, no binding. Instead of cutting the half-squares for the edge, why not fold them under, sew them down along the outside and leave them like that? As long as the edge is not pulled and stressed in use, why would it come apart? So, thanks for the demonstration and sparking some ideas and possibilities.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

We're so glad we could inspire you!! Your idea is a great option-please let us know how that works for you!! Thanks for watching!! -Michelle
