How to Sew Squares (Advanced Chain Piecing) with Mx Domestic

[@lzal3583]

When you are a self-taught quilter you don’t always learn the best way to do things! Where the hell has this technique been all my (quilting) life!?!? Sigh...... THANK YOU! Keep them coming! I feel like I’m learning so much.

[@carolinecoyne9073]

AMAZING technique thank you so much

[@madamsloth]

Found this vid while in the middle of a project, will be defiantly give this a try in the next block

[@crystalharrison6981]

Wow!! I thought I knew how to chain piece but you took it to a whole new level of AWESOMENESS 😍😍😍

[@gwenmalinowski3308]

I wish I saw this technique before I made a bazillion checkerboard blocks! Thanks for sharing! I ♥️ Mr. Domestic!

[@MetaphisicalMandy]

Oh mai gosh!!!!! I love your machine, it makes changing your pressor feet extremely easy!!!!

[@JennyLynne77]

I wasn't completely sold, I'm a "iron to 1 side-seam nester"... UNTIL you showed the BACK of the finished block... that's one sexy back! Great work, I'll have to try this technique 😍

[@revajobeattie1839]

I really like your technique. I am in the down strip flow of a king sized quilt. I haven’t ever done a king sized one before. After this one, complete, I have two more king sized one to do. Thanks for sharing. Love it Matthew. BTW: our 2nd son shares the same name. I loved your bag tutorial. I had wondered why I hadn’t seen you lately. So sorry about the troubles you have had. Great to see you back on You Tube.

Your my hero! Great job! I know what I'm doing this weekend!

[@stardresser1]

You embody joy. Thank YOU!

[@andreanewcome6495]

I freaking love your laugh! It really makes me smile! It is so genuine!

[@paulm3316]

So, I'm not even a sewer, but your colorwork is amazing, so I was compelled to watch this video from the thumbnail. I'm a crocheter and an embroiderer. Sewing has always intimidated me. I've subscribed and I'll definitely be watching more of your videos. I feel a sewing machine coming in my future! Plus you're adorable!

[@michellecano4350]

Hey! I've done this for years, just because it made sense in my brain. It saves so much thread! Never knew I was advanced! HAHA! You always make me laugh when you laugh on video. I love your energy! Thank you so much!

[@40loopylou1]

Me too - I thought this WAS how you chain pieced 😂 I do nest seams though

[@michellecano4350]

@@40loopylou1 I nest my seams as well. Next time I'll try pressing the seams open and see how that goes. 😃

[@kimdube5142]

Super technique! Will definitely give this a go!

[@kristineclay3270]

I loved this! I don't often do just square blocks but now I need to!

[@roseannecarratkinson4271]

I had to come back and watch again! Lol! I started a pixelated Zelda quilt for my daughter, almost 3 years ago. Whoops, time to get this one done!! I love how organized your blocks are. There have been so many times I have had to unpick because I flipped a row the wrong way. Thank you so much for all you do! 😃

[@ingfig1]

I love your colour blends

[@rubygaybarker9758]

This technique is a game-changer for me! Thanks, Matthew!!

I bought this fabric and couldn't be happier to see this beautiful pattern. Anxiously awaiting.

I love hearing your happy voice :-D. Like? Pssst of course , love actually

You are so much fun! I think it’s so awesome that you give your machines and iron names

[@amybugg001]

We are always watching ..... Thanks Matt

[@dianamay6017]

I never thought of doing it like that. Thanks for posting

[@eveperreault4986]

Wow! Thank you so much for the tutorial. I'm only just finishing up my first quilt ever and this is so inspiring and relaxing to watch! Can't say I'll start chain piecing like that right away but one day hopefully will!

[@Vintagekindagirl3]

Brilliant. And such a cheerful choice of fabrics.

[@shantelllavigne2464]

Yaaaaaaaaay, I can’t wait!!! When I seen this picture before, i could tell that he sewed the one side with a machine but I couldn’t figure out how in the world did he have it connected on the other side, when clearly you can see that they were opened. As a beginner, my mind try’s to understand the direction and application of the project. (Especially if I want to learn how) I couldn’t be more excited to understand how he applied his techniques on this beautiful quilt. Thank you so much Mr. Domestic........yaaaaaaay!

[@shawnmercercrain9727]

Wow! Thanks Mister Domestic! That is so cool!! What a great way to stitch up your blocks 👍🏼

[@lyndasnart7823]

So where did you get this efficient way of doing the squares ...after doing literally thousands I am shaking my head at the ease this works

[@siglindeweber85]

Thank you for showing this very good idea! That's perfect! 👍😸🐾

[@sherryclifton4947]

You did it again! Great idea.

[@carriebarnett1874]

To keep my rows straight, I have the dritz pins that have a flat flower or butterfly and wrote out 1-25 with a fine point sharpie. Helps me from confusing the rows. I take plenty of pictures too. :) Love this idea. I've been putting off a flag wall hanging kit I bought years ago with 2" squares. Maybe I'll tackle it now. Thanks for your great tutorials!! One of my favorites is the zippered pouches.

[@lauraoleary8144]

Some call this "webbing" of quilt blocks, you did such an awesome demonstration of it, I just love your tutorial. Your fabrics selected are gorgeous and on point. You definitely sew like a boss:)

[@djammyam]

I seen this technique back in the day from Eleanor Burns from Quilt in a Day. It is so efficient and helpful for lining things up. Thanks for the refresh course.

[@amwoods86]

[@darlenepalmer9837]

Nice, I learned something new. Thank you.

[@melodykowalski3469]

Thank you. I always learn something when I attend your classes. I mean watch your videos. While the final step of snipping the thread and ironing flat might seem time consuming the outcome is gorgeous and well worth it. I am going to try making a pillow cover with pieced squares and I was wondering how many squares I would need to sew a cover for an 18" pillow form? Thanks.

[@melodykowalski3469]

@@MxDomestic Thank you, you are such a sweetie, Hugs, Melody

[@illnesssucksfindfunn]

😯! You’re going to save me soooooo much time! I watched this video while chain piecing haha but your way looks so much more efficient! Plus it’s gonna save me so much thread!! I’m too far in on this current quilt to give this a go. Next quilt though I’m all in! Thanks for sharing! One tiny suggestion is get you some curved manicure scissors hun!! They curve upward, and one blade has a tiny little like hook on the end. So handy cutting chain piecing apart. That little hook gets right in there. The small size allows them to get right inside a seam. Plus manicure scissors are wayyyyy less then “embroidery” scissors. Keep up the great videos!! Oh and I LOVE the name of your iron. Can’t go wrong with Regina anything. 😂😍

[@illnesssucksfindfunn]

Mister Domestic 😂😂

[@TheBrokenNeedle]

Whoa dude 😆 This is awesome 👏 Thanks so much for sharing!

[@chrisinauburn]

Yeah great tutorial. I cut up 2.5 inch squares with leftover fabric. And strips too. We still need the flooring fairy to come and remove our carpet and replace with cork flooring!

[@stefanierodriguez-pardi2828]

Happy new year to you and felicia and rigena😘

[@terryivey5374]

Wow! Perfect technique for us who scramble our rows :) My brain just stays jumbled. Doing blocks and rows like this should help big time! Thanks much! Ummm, one thing...try getting used to using a stiletto or tool to guide those seams under the foot. I realize you may rush through for videos sake..but takes a second, then oops..ow!

[@giulianamiglioli3514]

Sew Squares seems easy... until you try it ... I had a pillow that I tried, so embarrassing ... Thanks a lot for your video! As always, amazing :) I think I felt in love by your machine, everything seems easy, but I am not sure if is you that makes amazing things :D

[@john941996]

I saw this trick on Jordan Fabrics' youtube channel too... I definately seems like a very quick and efficient method to sew a ton of squares together and keep points together, or close enough

Totally wicked! I mean , that is one boss square sewing tutorial! Seriously, wow! I can’t wait to try it! I have used lots of tricks but I have NEVER seen that one!!! You are always teaching me something new and I love it! I have a question.... how do you come up with such great names for all of your machine helpers??? Do you name them yourself or does Helena help? I ask because I name my “helpers” too! My old cast iron Singer machine is Benjamin (I call him Benny) My work horse machine that I learned everything on is Nellie (named after my grandmother who began work in a shirt factory at age 11 and could sew anything), and my fanciest machine is a Janome named Mary Lou (named for my mom who was always happiest when sewing)☺️💕
