OMG I laughed my butt off listening to the story about quilting you gorg table topper. Haven’t been around for awhile and right off the bat realized how much I missed being with you. When I first started watching you I learned soooooo much and here you are back to teaching us about the one block wonder and all variations thereof. Just love it, thank you so much. You are a doll. Chris G

[@andreagraham8720]

I was so happy to see you today! The beautiful piece you did for a future "scrub board" really made me happy. I remember my mother hanging laundry out on the line to dry. The North Dakota sunshine and wind made the cotton sheets and cotton towels smell so good. You just can't recreate that fresh smell in the dryer. You and your grandson will have so much fun making the pillowcase together. You are creating good memories that he will cherish and you will too. Have a wonderful week and thanks again for just being you.

[@peggyyoung1839]

I’m laughing so hard about sewing your pattern to your quilt. That would sew be me!😂

[@bobking2241]

Anna- Thanks for the two videos, and the new, easy quilt block! Your clothesline quilt is so cute! Hope you can find the perfect scrub board! Your grandson is adorable, and his pillow case turned out great! I taught my eldest grandson to quilt at six yrs. old. He loved the machine! He made a quilt for his new baby bro., then made a quilt for himself! When waiting for his first baby, he sewed the layette! He owns an auto repair place now. He has always LOVED machines of any sort! : ) Brenda King

[@cyndythomas7217]

Here’s a thought… when I only need a bit of fabric, I go to the thrift store and look for a piece of clothing that is made of a linen, wool or other nice woven. Take it home and wash and dry it and then snip snip

[@denisedooley20]

I have found so many pieces of quality quilt fabric in our local thrift store!!!!

[@CuriousMoonDesign]

Great idea👍

[@Chris_Yoo__AsTheYooFlies]

Good morning friend!! The genius that is Quilt Roadies needs to be on a t-shirt. Congrats on the 30K subscribers. However, I'm not surprised. You are a doll and I simply adore everything you do. I have already planned 2 or 3 of those one-block wonder quilts especially the ones that I can fussy cut the 4.5" center. Freaking AWESOME!! Boy, can I relate to losing stuff in the sewing room. I spent 2 hours last week trying to find a piece of yardage that I just bought that morning!!! I tore this place apart only to discover it was still in the bag in my car. Insert smacking my forehead here. Some times . . . Well, I'm off to finish another tasks for my guild's upcoming quilt show. My list is long, but these are the kind of tasks you love, and do with fun anticipation of the event. Super excited. Wish you lived closer and could come by! Love you friend!!! Hugs from NE Ohio.

[@tataniabrown2380]

Nothing better than cotton sheets after hanging on a clothesline!

[@sandyevenson-hagen370]

Thanks for sharing the details of One Block Wonder, perfect to substitute a single motif in the center. The Toy Story quilt is going to be adorable! Have a wonderful camping vacation and enjoy your stitching time! Take care! 🌻

[@lindaallinder1751]

I love the Christmas wonder quilt! Great idea and so cute! Look at you enjoying your grandson through sewing! Life can’t get much better! Enjoy your time with nature and friends! Happy stitching!

[@susanwarner9427]

I so love the simplicity of the one block wonder and wonderful they turn out. Thanks so much for sharing and for several laugh out louds! Always a pleasure to visit with you.

[@Brenda-G]

I remember when I was a little girl I picked cotton and made a few cents and spent it all on candy. That was in the 50's. Great video!

[@jeanforrester4134]

Yes. but did you ever eat Cotton Candy? ❤

[@melodykemp9685]

Love to see cotton sheets blowing in the wind on a clothesline!

[@margm4]

Herein Queensland, we’ve pretty well missed winter. It’s still very warm, heading to hot, hot, hot. Today our high was 28C,low was a cool 20c. As I said, we’re almost into summer, missing spring altogether! I agree with your comments regarding music. I play piano by ear. My piano is a upright, still able to punch out a tune. Love your comments. Xxx❤️

[@autumn88310]

I just love The Cotton Harvest pattern because it reminds me of my grandmother's and mother's laundry out on the line on wash day. Thank you for the quilt pattern.

[@anneshaw1183]

Anna, I can’t tell you how much this tutorial has meant to me! I finally have the inspiration to dig into my lovely fabrics and actually cut them up for a quilt! Your tutorial touched my soul and made me feel as though this was definitely a quilt I could tackle! It has inspired so many ideas for gifts and grandchild quilts! I must admit I’m a fabric addict…and that includes cross stitch as well! 😊. I just can’t wait to put your suggestions to work….and I also thought about a 4 1/2 center square 😂 I laughed when you suggested that! Thank you so much!!❤❤❤🦩🦩🦩

[@margealbanese1818]

Anna, believe me, you are not alone on ‘misplacing’ things in your sewing room. I find all sorts of things that I have been looking for among my COTTON fabrics. Love the easy quilts you are making. I will try one. Stay healthy!

[@frankieronacher1794]

So true that statement of trying to find things in our sewing room is real life of a sewer forsure

[@idabrandon5054]

I taught my granddaughter how to sew and she has made several baby quilts. She is young adult so she doesn't have time now but good knowledge for the future. I have a washboard hanging in my laundry room that needs that cotton wool piece hanging on it. Amazing Find game show in the sewing room sounds like a great idea. Thank you for the tutorial for one block quilt and the 2nd one too. Hope you get to go camping soon.

[@cynthialindsley5117]

This is hilarious- it is good to know others misplace stuff in their sewing room. We are so sure we are putting stuff away in a place that makes sense, until we can't find it. My sewing room is very organized and I can't find a pattern I bought for my granddaughter🤣. You are such a good friend and grandma.

[@maryloudawson8999]

TV will probably get worse due to the strikes. Because of you and another friend of mine, I have started listening to audio books while I am sewing and doing other things in my sewing room. I am loving it!

[@brendamceachern4527]

Love it when I’m looking for something to watch and your notification comes on my screen😊

[@paulalouis7204]

I’ve been working with cotton all day. Two mystery quilts. Lol

[@karena.2416]

Quilt intro is a beautiful and happy quilt. Here in my area we had a week of Fallish weather which boomeranged back to hot, dry humid days.! In my next life I won’t be coming back but settled in heaven knowing how to do all the things that I don’t know how to do here. What a wonderful life.😊. If I’m ever blessed enough to win something you can know I’ll claim it pronto 😅. Trees over clotheslines because of birds isn’t friendly to cotton wash. 😂 oh my gosh the Christmas quilt is precious. ❤ so while I was watching/listening to you I cut strips, tomorrow hopefully I’ll get the strips cut into 4.5 pieces, it is late Labor Day evening and I’m too tired to trust myself to cut anything else properly. Lol Thanks for a wonderful visit, love as always. 💕

[@pammahorney2631]

Hello Anna! I was a winner of your 12 days of Christmas way back when. I won a Gail Pan book that I use 3 or four times a year! Thank you!

[@maryloudawson8999]

This is a nice pattern to use to make charity quilts. Thanks for sharing. I have lots of Cotton fabric in my stash. Love your videos and all you share with us. Thanks!

[@jnlfamily2]

Love Sew Yeah Quilting. Especially their destash!!! Buy all my backings from them.

[@toniwilson4264]

Love the quilt pattern and....I almost blew my coffee all over my cross stitch when you made the comment about your Survivor setting idea. 😅😅 Thanks for another great video!

[@normacarbajal5664]

Anna - I love your thought process! Don’t ever change.

[@AnniePA1960]

My brother, when younger, played upwards of a dozen instruments, none of them piano. He did, however, play the big white sousaphone in the Baltimore Colts Marching Band back in 1969. Cotton!!

[@wooleygirl5240]

I love to sew with wool and cotton. Enjoyed your video very much, Anna. Pam Miller

[@jacquelineleibfried4691]

Love the pics of your grandson and his great work.

[@carolynquick]

Cotton, I love the pattern.Thanks for all you do!

[@karenpellien9360]

Thanks for sharing another great video Anna! The Cotton Harvest wall hanging is simply adorable! I love the idea of making the pillowcase with your grandson not just making it for him! He’s a lucky boy!!

[@norcalquilter9214]

Anna, I absolutely love that tabletopper.

[@margaretwitt9450]

You never cease to make me laugh.. Thank you so much..

[@Mawxnine]

Wow! I can still see me sewing my project to my pattern! 😊 Cotton. I love to listen to your blog because you have such a calming effect. If I am stressed, I can listen to you and calm down immediately. I find direction so many times. Thank you for sharing yourself with us! I also taught one of my grandson’s to make the pillowcase a year or so ago. He felt so accomplished.

[@judimoran5424]

So glad I am not the only one that loses things in her sewing room. Today it was my sewing glasses. I had to go to my small quilt group without them. I was sewing on a binding. That didn't go well. Came home and took things apart, still not where I thought they'd be. Where were they? On the ironing board. Sure, that makes sense, right? Well, I had been cutting some small pieces to add to some small blocks I was working on during a zoom quilt get together with buddies from all over, and I was using them for sewing, and obviously took them over to the ironing board and took them off to do the cutting. All's well that ends well, right?

[@teleburke]

So happy to have someone to visit with at 4:30 AM when the dog gets me up and I can’t get back to sleep!

[@peggyramirez368]

Wow! Information packed post! Thank you for sharing.

[@irenebello3123]

I love your Christmas table topper! Genius!!!

[@gretroman8235]

What a relatable video. Can't find something. Look in the least liky place, in a bag all alone. Sewing to paper, check. One block wonder inspiting variations and another quilt. Check. 😂

[@ireneosullivan9404]

My mother used one of these washboards when I was a child, so this was very interesting to see and what a lovely piece of cotton you made for it. ❤

[@patd9321]

Thank you for another fun video. I enjoy seeing your ideas and finished projects. Two little girls are going to be thrilled with your quilts. I can't wait to see your wool project nest and small fall pillows. I've never sewn with wool. It's another thing to add to my list of things to try.

[@LindaRolando]

Anna, i certainly enjoyed the one block wonder. Thanks!

[@beccilund4305]

Love your u. Tubes and love cotton fabric.

[@cheryls6921]

Just love your channel! I am inspired to try your quilt ideas. You're the best!!

[@ajolb3]

I love that wool project from the Cotton Harvest. It’s perfect for my laundry room. I’m experimenting more using cotton as a background for some of my wool projects, too. Thank you for sharing the pattern.

[@jnlfamily2]

I’m in your camp as far as everything! Love the cute Toy Story Jesse. Keep the tutorials coming. Love the ideas they spark.

[@roosterquilter783]

So many thoughts after listening this morning. If musically inclined are better at EPP then G should try EPP - he would be amazing. The idea of a game show or survivor series in my sewing room is both hysterical and terrifying at the same time…it would be a mixture of Squid Games, Wipe Out, The Floor is Lava and I Shouldn’t Be Alive. I just don’t know where the camera crew would be able to stand😂. Once again thanks for sharing so many smiles and inspirational thoughts. Love the quick quilt from 4 1/2 x 2 1/2 pieces.

[@suegraham4323]

Your grandson is adorable!! In my next life I’m hoping for curly hair and to be more musical. I’d love to play by ear. I also want to still love all needle crafts because I’ll have plenty left over from this life. We’re wrapping up our 4-1/2 month motor home trip, and will be home next Monday. I’m finally ready to be home and enjoy quiet and productive days in my sewing room. We love Harvest Host stays and have met some of the nicest people across the country.

[@QuiltingWithMeSew]

How fun to sew with your grandson, bet he was so proud of his pillowcase😃 He will always remember you taking the time to teach him. I think boys should learn to cook too 👍 Great idea to cut the center square in one piece, the Christmas topper turned out so cute…the simple ideas are always the best. Thanks, Anna, for another fun filled video🥰 If we get a second life I still want to quilt, but also be blessed with rhythm, so I can dance. I could be a dancing quilter 😂

[@grmanat]

Fun video! Your table topper is so cute. Sometimes I find it easier to just go buy something I can’t find, than spend hours hunting for it. My grandson has asked for a mountain quilt for quite a while. I found fabric etc, cut the pieces and have a very small start. Yesterday we had lunch, “how’s my quilt coming?”. Gulp. I’d better get busy! Need to put down stitching for a while!

[@cherylhoffler162]

Oh Anna! You just inspired an idea to marry quilting and stitching with your Christmas table topper. I can stitch a few “ornaments” and use them as 4 1/2” squares in a table topper quilt

[@lauralinash5341]

COTTON😊That washboard design is so Cute! I have a collection of washboards. Never thought of using it as a quilt display.❤

[@MICHIGANGAL007]

love that wool Cotton pattern sew cute

[@katherinephillips8952]

AKA KPDuty Quilts Cotton. Glad you had some rain. We are dry in the Shenandoah valley. Happy Back to School!

[@DonnaW-f2m]

So proud of his new pillow case! Thanks for sharing your Grandma time with us!

[@anitaestep9076]

You are talking my language today I would love to send someone in my sewing room to try to find something right now it would be funny just watching them! Speaking about cotton reminds me of the fields around here now the cotton will soon be blooming out and the fields will be Snow White and Beautiful!

[@eileenemberger3969]

That bowl filler kit is so,cute. I was tempted for sure. I usually sew with otton but have done a couple of wool projects. I am going to try that quilt block with a FQ pack of Christmas fabrics for a donation quilt.

[@karenbrosi7180]

Code word: cotton. Thank you for your videos. I lime your book recommendations, as well as the stitching and quilting. I haven't done a wool project, yet. I keep eyeing tbem at my favorite quilt shop, which is in Branson West, MO.

[@frankieronacher1794]

Good morning, I absolutely love both of your videos!!! I love working with cotton fabric. But just started making Christmas ornaments with wool and love it. I learn so much from both of you quilting and especially cross stitch(thank you). Have a great day. 💞

[@AngiesQuilting]

Yes, it’s feeling Fallish here in Sonoma County too. I’m laughing so hard Anna at your idea of comparing our sewing room to the TV shows Amazing Race. LOL!

[@marilynsr53]

This is why I adore you!! I can totally relate to you!! I have to make this quilt - yes! We all need something simple to enjoy our sewing! Love it!!!❤️

[@ginabethyoung3276]

I loved your Genius and had to laugh out loud several times (one being the stitch pattern). You brighten my day. 🎉📍✂️🧵🪡

[@kathycronk2499]

😂always putting it in a very safe place, not sure where that is when I want it but it’s very safe😂. Your grandson did a great job with the pillow case. Enjoy your camping!

[@teresavicars9989]

I love your videos, they are so refreshing and you calm my nerves even though you are a 5 star enabler. LOL!!! Cotton. Thanks

[@dianemotley]

think I will have to try a one block wonder, and yes, Anna, think fussy-cutting some blocks is a great idea to use for the center square. I want to share this quilt idea with my quilt group here in southwest Florida. I want to make bowl fillers, too, and have been looking for the right bowl to use. Thanks for all the great ideas today!

[@Ally-dz9us]

LOVE THE CHRISTMAS QUILT TOPPER!🎄 Thank you, I can get these done ✔️ before Christmas!

[@bonniestalhiem8025]

I didn’t know about color grabber sheets until you just mentioned them. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I’ve been having trouble with my red fabric projects bleeding around the edges so I’m going to get a box of these sheets ASAP! 👍🏻👵🏻

[@marilynferlitsch2003]

Love your laundry room piece, it turned out great. Your Grandson is so cute making his pillowcase. We are having high temps this weekend in WI. Cotton Marilyn

[@jeanballiro5818]

I'm glad you found the pattern you were looking for. Did you ever find the floss from your move? Ha, ha. I like the cotton you have in the plastic bag.

[@sueporter6738]

Cotton! Thank you for letting us know about the shop in Toronto, I'm going to check out their website! Love the one block quilt as well!

[@vickyh7881]

I so enjoyed this visit. I taught my 3 grandsons to sew when they were a few years younger (they are all teenagers now😢). They made pillowcases for charity and dog beds for a shelter. They were so proud of themselves. It was a sweet time. I’m so glad you get to do that too. Your grandson did a fabulous job. Loved the cute pic of “Jesse”! Tfs! 🤗🤗

[@kathyn4267]

I bought 3 kits for pillow cases in Michigan when on vacation. They are u of m fabric. Blue and gold. They sewed up fast in an afternoon. They went to my Grandsons in Mi. Yes i have had those searching days. So fun when you find it. Have fun camping!

[@normajeanmyatt3860]

I love the Christmas table topper! I’m hooked. I’m sure i can come up with some cotton out of my stash.

[@HellhoundVR67]

Just love you and your videos your tips and information is greatly appreciated stay well and warm love you

[@quiltroadies1695]

Thank you so much!

[@bonniestalhiem8025]

I would LOVE to learn how to play the clarinet (licorice stick) because I simply love how they sound! 💖👵🏻

[@rebeccaswanson2736]

Cotton Harvest is indeed a wonderful place! And that pattern and kit have been tempting me for ages! And that table topper with the genius way you broke up the two reds! You are so clever!

[@nancytaber6804]

Love your videos and also love wool applique. Now I'm going to make a cotton quilt like this

[@karensinn3294]

Enjoying seeing you again. It’s been awhile for me. I like mixing some cotton fabric with my wool for additional texture.

[@ladilegionnaire13]

Congrats on the 30K, well deserved my friend. Trust me we are sooo much alike when it comes to finding the safe place we put things .washing fabric, really, well I guess I need to get some color catcheŕ for sure. I havealready enabled our 6 lady sewing group on the 4 1/2 × 2 1/2 quilt block, and now can't wait to tell them about the center block idea. You are such an enabler and I love you for that. Cotton is one of my favorites. Just ordered fleece for Christmas blankets. Hugs from the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. Linda

[@vickichapel7447]

Anna, I laughed and laughed at you sewing the pattern to your piece!! Lol One day, I decided to make my family homemade pizza for dinner. I always make my own dough for pizza. That day I wanted to try a different recipe I had cut out of a cooking magazine. So I stirred and let the dough rise. Then as I was kneading it a second time, it started to turn gray and then had black splotches in it. I was so confused, but I was not going to feed gray/black dough to my family. So I threw away that dough and pulled out a baggie of previously made dough and proceeded with the thawing process. As the dough was thawing, I decided to check the recipe for some of the measurements and for the life of me, I could not find the recipe anywhere. Well, of course, somehow in my expert kneading, the recipe had gotten mixed up in the dough and that was why the dough turned grayish/blackish!!!! So frustrated with myself!!

[@carenstephens4276]

So glad you found your pattern! And yes you do have the fabric… I bet the fabric nymphs have stashed it in a VERY safe place! ❤

[@brendafrye5875]

Ann no breaking out in a sweat for me, I was laughing out loud cause I have done that so many times. I WILL NOT use a big chunk of fabric cause I'm sure I bought for something. Makes me crazy that I can't remember what. So glad I'm not alone.

[@cherylnewell9912]

I'm with you paper piecing is a challenge for me.

[@joycesidwell5280]

I’ve been wanting to try wool appliqué. I’d love cotton and wool. I’m trying to dress up my laundry room and the pattern would be great!! Love your videos! I’m going to try the quilt pattern! I want to make several quilts for grandchildren!:)

[@crystalflanders4786]

Hi Anna, nice to spend time with you in the behive again. I too lose things in my sewing room. i have lost a book, took a while to find it and my 4 !/2 inch square ruler. I have lost that many times. Maybe i have cotton stuffing in my head. LOL

[@beckywilliams9703]

I would surely "cotton to the pattern you are giving away with the wash on the line!

[@norcalquilter9214]

Oh my gosh I'm right there with you. Always looking for something in here. LOL

[@pamelaatchison3452]

You are in fine fettle today Anna. What a fun chat. The little autumn pillows are a lovely project. (Good for you with your Grandson. My grandaughters are just not interested. 😭) Thank you Anna.

[@gammato3]

Glad you found the pattern. I am currently looking for a template. “Circle Magic”. I found the book that came with the template but I have gone thru every drawer shelf and container twice still haven’t found it. It was the original Brandy one. Missouri star has one of their own and they were 50% off so I ordered yesterday. I imagine I will find the original shortly after it comes. While shopping there I did find some cotton fabric that just had to travel with the template. I am using the template to use denim to make my greatgrand dog (100# plus Great Dane ) a quilt. The fake cathedral window. Thank for your videos.

[@Savannahstitcher]

It’s funny, Anna, but I don’t quilt, but I love to watch your channel. You mentioned you don’t do paper piecing. Did you mean foundation paper piecing it? The reason I ask is there is foundation paper piecing, and there is English paper piecing where you use different shapes and put your fabric around them and then when they’re basted, you remove the papers. I do both, but I prefer the English paper piecing because it’s portable. I can do it anywhere. I also do Crosstitch, Punch needle and crochet. But in my next life, I want to be a quilter. Also, with the English paper piecing, you do a quilt as you go, where after the hexagon is made you put a piece of batting the same size as the hexagon, and then a bigger hexagon for the backing. Then you turn the backing onto the front and it self binds. I also want to tell you that when I get up in the morning, which is usually 5:30 AM, I watch any KZbin videos that I subscribe to that are creative. That gets my creative juices flowing for the day. Although I do so many different projects in one day, there are some days when I just don’t feel motivated but if I watch a creative KZbin first thing in the morning, I am good to go all day. I am going to try the one block wonder.

[@graybynature2449]

Well done Anna's grandson. I taught my boys how to sew and cook. I like the one block wonder I took notes. I wonder if you can scale it up - would you need to make the length 2inches bigger than the width??? Enjoy camping - I am waiting for Spring to come - so that it is a bit warmer, to camp.

[@huisuk]

👏👏👏👏 thanks for sharing.

[@cindy1913]

Oh Anna, I was just looking for the pattern on line. I have plenty of fabric (and then some) plus my grandmother's old wash board. Whether I use wool , cotton or flannel, it will be wonderful. Keeping my fingers crossed.😐🤞

[@lorettabuckingham9341]

Than you… I’ve been looking for Seahawks cotton Fabric.

[@suzandahlenburg3231]

Oh you are exactlY the friend I want because you make me laugh!

[@deberaschaubroeck4634]

I like to use cotton fabric for my backings. I know that some use flannel.

[@sewfrancie3395]

Congratulations, Anna! An awesome accomplishment! Love your videos. Love the northwest. And I agree with you. In my next life, I'd like to play bass guitar, sing like Celine Dion, and practice law like Perry Mason! :) I think I will try this block from all the scraps I've kept.

[@sarahfriesner7442]

Thanks Anna, 😂😂😂. I put things in a safe place, but where is it? 😂😂
