Quilt in a Day: Finish Your Quilt in 3 Hours with 9 Fat Quarters!

[@joycevasey2312]

Who knew a huge 9 patch could evolve into such a beautiful quilt! Love the binding technique too.....Thanks for sharing.

[@aprilscraftroom]

You are welcome. And thank you for watching.

[@ninatrusty2057]

I love how you carefully explained how you prepared the backing, and also how you started and enmeshed your binding. I'm an old and experienced sewist, but many younger and less experienced folk are joining the ranks. You have done them a great favor. It was well explained and demonstrated. I love the fat quarter bundle and your finished quilt.

Very nice and yes manly Thank you .

[@ecoquilting7077]

Thank you!... For not calling this a "beginner project" like so many youtubers would. .... Always pre-press! (couldn't resist😉)

[@aprilscraftroom]

You are so welcome!

[@hp6477]

I also pre wash just in case of shrinkage

[@sisterchicksquilting]

[@carenstory8425]

Love the colors. And I need some of that thread too. Love the big 9 patch cut up 🎉❤

[@aprilscraftroom]

Thanks for the tip!

[@lindsayschilling8707]

I love how you tucked in the binding at the end of sewing on the binding. Simple yet genius. I am going to try it. Oh, and I've just found the perfect pattern to make my first Kantha Quilt - I can't wait to get started! Many thanks ❤

[@AIassistingquiltsandcraft]

I’m SO glad to see your channel doing so well. Two years ago, I told you I was going to start one and you encouraged me!! I wish I would have listened! But no time like the present!! 🎉❤

[@aprilscraftroom]

You can do it!

[@irenebaxendale8367]

Love this idea. I've been looking for something similar with my amazing fabric designed by my niece. Thank you ❤

[@aprilscraftroom]

Wonderful!

[@arabellalunkes4532]

I love me some Tim Holtz! Loved your quilt and already made a Hyde Park with TH fabrics.

[@aprilscraftroom]

[@jeanmanz2234]

I love Tim Holz fabric. This pattern will work so well for all the beautiful prints that are now available.

[@sandrachurchill9876]

Love watching. Have just started canning and back to sewing since I have gotten old (76). Love learning something new. Thank you for the simple and quick ideas..

[@aprilscraftroom]

Wonderful!

[@marlenejones6266]

I know what you mean. Im 75 and i got so intrigued by some quilters I watched I decided to try it. And I love it and I'm half way done with my first simple quilt top. It's fun when. I'm not in pain.

[@joyphillips3069]

I'm glad to see someone else do their binding like I do

[@aprilscraftroom]

Yay!

[@klueless1011]

I’m so glad you’ve gone back to this kind of video. It’s so much easier to watch

[@aprilscraftroom]

I'm so glad!

[@debbielee7117]

Love the Tim Holtz fabric!

[@aprilscraftroom]

Thanks! Me, too. :-) April

[@daisy8297]

Looking extremely smart today, April! 🤗

[@aprilscraftroom]

Oh thank you!

[@debbiedobbins6785]

I really like this quilt Miss April. Fantastic example of how to use large pieces to show off super cool prints. That bundle worked marvelously…and you didn’t spend days on end cutting and piecing it back together. Love the richness in those prints. Have a terrific weekend. Hopefully I can catch your Live this weekend. 🤗🤗

[@aprilscraftroom]

[@andifism]

"Frankenbatting"!! 😂😂 I do love a good frankenbatting, saves me a fortune.

[@LeeanaCarden-p6t]

April, I've done the smaller 5"sq disappearing 9 patch, but I never thought about a 10" one, I liked it. Love your KZbin channel and your kitties, I have a year old orange male tabby, named Nehemiah, who also thinks he can help in the sewing and ironing dept.

[@aprilscraftroom]

Awwww ❤️

[@judymoen674]

Love the 3 hour quilt, never thought of doing it that way, plus cutting and swapping pieces is an awesome idea for a totally pieced quilt. Great tutorial, always love watching your shows I usually catch the replays. Thank goodness for replays

[@aprilscraftroom]

Glad it was helpful!

[@francesgraves4550]

Thank you so much for showing how to bind with that angle! I am going to try that method next time, seems tidier than the way I have been only joining them together.

[@aprilscraftroom]

Glad it was helpful!

[@sheilacarroll7143]

I love th he fabrics you used in this quilt.💕 It came out GREAT! Thank you for sharing. 😊🌹🦋

[@aprilscraftroom]

Thank you! 😊

[@debracarlo7575]

Love Tim Holtz! This is the perfect pattern/fabric for a guy. Thank you April!

[@aprilscraftroom]

You are so welcome!

[@131dyana]

I do not use binding any more. I cut the backing one inch longer than the quilt and just fold over the one inch. ta da. Looks great and is real easy.

[@carrollstolz5164]

Self binding is coming back in to popularity.. it was an historical technique used in the 18th and 19th centuries. It saves fabric.

[@anitanoland9188]

Thanks for sharing your adventure from the very beginning when you open the fat quarter bundle to the finished quilt!

[@susanonealsmith8434]

I love this quilt! The Tim Holtz fabric was is always too gorgeous to cut up, and you made it even more beautiful! Thanks for the great tutorial.:)❤

[@aprilscraftroom]

Thank you so much!

[@Dee_B23]

April your Masculine Quilt turned fantastic! Can't beat some of Tim Holtz's Fabrics for one. Your Tutorial is spot on with enough details to know what to do. Thank you! 🤗

[@aprilscraftroom]

Thank you so much!

[@dianecarlson2918]

you look so pretty in this video. I love that denim very! Great looking quilt! Saving to my pinterest board "fat quarter quilts."

[@destrygraves]

I love that you made a different version of a disappearing nine patch. It has always been my favorite. Bonus points for knowing that Frankenstein created the monster. Most people don’t.

[@karenraabis5296]

One of my favs! It came out great! I love your channel!

[@lynnshepard7485]

You’re one of my fav’s! And you remind me of a good friend who always “resolves” her fabric!

[@aprilscraftroom]

Oh thank you!

[@suehorn4182]

I always love your videos. I do my bindings the same way……SEW EASY. Nice quilt. I never have used the mono thread. I sew binding to the front and hand stitch to the back…….i’m a old grandmother 😂❤😂

[@Carylanne927]

fabric is art. these style fabrics are best shown in large pieces, nice choice.

[@blairseibert1778]

Thanks for this easy quilt. Love the fabrics.

[@aprilscraftroom]

❤️

[@CakeyCraftyCarol]

I have missed your non-live posts - the live ones make me feel bad for not joining in at the time ❤ I'd love a scrap bag but I'm in the UK and it'd cost you more than the benefit I'd get if you sent it to me. I get more joy from watching you than any scrap bag, you're just wonderful and funny and brilliant 😂 shame the fur babies didn't participate this time but I'm sure they'll join in soon ❤

[@priscillasaudi9117]

I love it it's beautiful love your colors thank you for sharing

[@aprilscraftroom]

Thank you

[@MsDale1976]

Love the way you explained the attaching the two ends. I try and do the bias cut to get the two ends together. Your way is much easier! I always forget 🤦‍♀️ about the mono thread ! Thanks for the reminder.

[@aprilscraftroom]

You are so welcome!

[@gailg129]

I totally agree!

[@michelleterry424]

[@gigiontube]

I use this binding technique especially for mug rugs or table runners where there is not to much space to do a bias sewing of the ends.

[@lindaseverson-adams9990]

April I love how you gave the directions for the beginning and ending of the binding. Great tip.!!!

[@aprilscraftroom]

Glad it was helpful!
