I don't know how Hannah came to work at Fabric Cafe, but she has definately been gift to the store! Young Lay, you are a natural teacher and it has be fun to watch you grow as you have learned how to make these vidoes . It isn't easy to stand in front of a camera and talk, let alone teach at the same tme. You make it look like you have done it since birth (Quite a feat for a Newborn). Keep up the goo work, kiddo, you are a real Winner! 😊

@heathl327 ай бұрын
Using a bigger ruler allows placement of the cutter without being on the fabric so that the beginning of the cut is smooth and away from you rather than a 'push' downward into the fabric. ALSO: place folded fabric with the fold side closest to you to avoid 'pressure bubbles' from pushing away from your body when cutting.

Hannah, I am so impressed! You proceeded through this tutorial from start to finish without a hitch. Your quilt was a surprise on first glance. Note; I have yet to make a quilt. So far, I've been watching hours and hours of quilting tutorials. As a result, the sweet freestyling approach you took a time or two, while making your quilt, was something I did not expect. I am one of those people who likes to make the decisions, especially in anything I have creative ownership over. However, at times, I am a tad too perfectionistic for my own good. As a result, "stage fright" is a feeling I have come to know well. The potential for making a mistake, particularly while people are watching, tends to bring to mind images of barefooted me, hesitating to begin the fire-walk I foolishly imagine is before me. You were cool as a cucumber in this video. You chose to proceed without overthinking. In being fearlessly genuine, you were able to take your new quilting project over the finish line in a mere 30 minutes or so. 🙂 And, in the end, you lived to see another day! Only this time, you were, literally, invited to step out from behind the "quilt curtain" and teach us what it's like to daily rub shoulders with Donna, Fran, John and the rest of the Fabric Cafe production team/family. You definitely put your own spin on things; while still bringing the whole project home with finesse. You remained true to the quilt pattern's overall intent: to make a beautiful quilt that reminds people to stay "Balanced." And, in the process, you showed that Fabric Cafe is the place where individual 's learn in an environment that enables and encourages personal progress; while experiencing one's work as an artist and feel real joy by design.. Thank you for sharing Hannah, I truly loved the lesson and your fun quilt.

Hannah, I think your idea is very creative. I applaud you. However my eye is distracted by the different borders around the charms. For some reason it just jangles to me.

Keep quilting, you are inspiring many of us. Look how far you have come in a short time!!

I love the fabric that you chose It is so vibrant and popping in color. I also like the fact that you used a charm pack. You've made me reconsider using this pattern you chose, in the quilt book quilts on a double. Looking forward to more of your videos, and the quilts that you've made.

I always wondered about how to use my stash of 5” blocks and this is SO inspiring! I’m going back to all of my 3-yard quilt books to see if any other patterns might be a good candidate for this method. Hmmm, maybe even my 10” squares will now find a new use! One suggestion, though, please use “column” when talking about long vertical strips (up and down) and use “row” when talking about blocks that go across (horizontally - side to side). I’ve made a few column quilts and some patterns really are easier to sew in columns rather than rows. Thanks for the video!

Forgive me for sounding ignorant but when you use the two different fabrics for the borders of the charm square do you only need 1/2 yard of each color or still one years and just adding the charms to the pattern outside of the three yards, just curious how I would plan this in my purchase of fabric thank you
@FabricCafe6 ай бұрын
Hi Robyn! I used a little over a 1/2 yard of my teal and blue by the end of the project. Using two different fabrics for your #3 fabric on the blocks and borders - you could make it work with 3/4 yard. However, you will still need to have additional fabric for your binding. I also used a whole yard of my #2 fabric. Hope this is helpful! - Hannah

What is a "three yard quilt?"
@FabricCafe6 ай бұрын
A 3-Yard Quilt is typically a quilt pattern made with only 3 yards of fabric. We have designed over 100+ patterns using this method of quilting and find that new quilters like it because they are easy and cost effective to make, and experienced quilters like it because they can make several in a hurry! You can find all of our patterns at www.fabroccafe.com, and see more examples of our quilts here on our channel on KZbin 🥰
