I am so excited to have found your channel! I am 67 years old and have a 67 -year-old stash that I’ve actually found out one through twice. I have been stewing about the fact that I might not be able to finish or use some of the sweet fabrics I got. Now you’ve given me enough good ideas and hopefully more to come so I can use some of it! Thanks again I will be back! Bye the way but noodle is genius!!!

You are a Hoot!! And the "quick & dirty" quilt is adorable! Pool noodles are so useful, aren't they? I LOVE what you did with the Chenille-It, the result is beautiful. I've been sewing for some 60-plus years and felt a little sorry for you when you had a little trouble closing the gap where you turned the quilt. So I thought I'd offer a little "quick & dirty" trick that might help you. First, I suggest you make your gap a bit less wide. Roughly half the width you did would still allow you to turn it right side out very easily. Secondly, and this is the neat part, begin sewing around your quilt edge a little differently. Lower your needle at your starting point and rotate the quilt so you can backstitch perpendicularly almost to the the edge with tiny stitches (1.5 works well). Then stitch forward to your starting point, pivot and stitch all around the edge as you normally would. When your reach your stopping point for the gap, repeat what you did at the beginning. Pivot, shorten your stitch length, backstitch perpendicularly to the edge with tiny stitches, then stitch forward to your seamline. Before turning your quilt right side out, give your seamline a really good pressing, and trim away that little length of batting just the width of your seam allowance. Now, once you've got it right side out, put your index fingers one each inside the quilt on each end of the gap and GENTLY pull. If you've done this correctly, the edges of the gap with turn under very neatly and straight all by themselves. Hit them with the iron and your're good to go. (Then go stick your tongue out at Murphy). Hope you like this little trick, I use it all the time for all types of sewing, not just quilts. And I hope I haven't offended you either, I just want to help.

I made one yesterday, wish I had used pool noodles..... anyway it was 2 yards of fabric each side as more of a throw and not sleeping quilt. My coworker us retiring and loves turtles, she may be getting double knee replacement so I thought yes a lightweight quilt with turtles. My lines were not straight but my husband said they look like waves leave it. He was correct. My coworker knows I am not perfect neither would be the quilt or any other thing I make would be perfect. I call those slight imperfections character. Thank you for posting, now to find some pool noodles for the next one.

I do the same but layer batting on bottom first then back then front on top. I can now see where to sew after pinning all together. Before sewing I cut the back and batting even with the front. I also sometimes leave out the batting and use minky or similar fleece back. Then with turning right side out I sew around the design to quilt the two pieces together to hold it's shape. With the 3 layer ones I also quilt around the designs on the front but use more stitches closer together. So there is sewing about 4 to 5 inches apart. Example-- around the rainbow and unicorn for the 2 layer ones, and around each color of the rainbow and all the clouds,ECT. for the batting ones.

I made a 30x40 cuddle soft baby blanket with this method. Glad it wasn’t any bigger! I don’t like sewing with that fabric! I think I lightly sprayed craft glue to secure my batting so it wouldn’t slip. I top-stitched and then quilted large stars. For my first attempt, I was happy with it. My second baby quilt didn’t go as well. The directional backing is sideways not top to bottom- like you mentioned in your video!! Live and learn but my grandson doesn’t care!! Really enjoy your videos. I can relate, scratch my head and laugh at my silly mistakes!!! As always, enjoyed watching your video! Have a great day April!

Puckers usually just disappear in the wash as long as you didn't wash the fabric before you started piecing with it. The unwashed fabric shrinks and the stitching is no longer too tight. It is like magic. LOL. Thank you for watching and don't let little mistakes slow you down - they just make you a better quilter. I must be like the BEST quilter ever!!! 😁. April

My mom has 5 grandkids. She made them all quillows. It takes 3 different fabrics. 2 yds each. 1 for front, 1 for back, and 1 for pillow. You won't need a whole yd for pillow, but I guarantee that once you get home you'll change your mind and want the pillow fabric for front/back instead. My mom has made 30+ quillows for our family and friends so far. She is now working on the great-grandkids' quillows. I've gotten 1 so far. The 2nd one is on the table in her sewing room waiting to be finished. When fall comes she'll finish it. She just topstitches the pillow sides straight down following the chalk line she drew. She buys white chalk at dollar stores and it washes out great.

If you will have the opening on the side where the selvedge was because it doesn't stretch as much, so it will be easier to close the opening without any puckers.

Just love this idea. Hate the quilting police and like most of us I am my own policeman lol. I have never seen chenille it here in my local sewing and quilting stores in Brisbane but will certainly hunt for it now. What a great addition to a quilt for a child.

@@aprilscraftroom i use the Frixion pens on the light to medium colored fabrics. They don't come back when cold. I also used the same pens on paper before and it only came back really faded in the freezer. You may not want to use it with dark fabrics as the marks show up as white/gray when ironed/heated up.
