Make a Baby Quilt - Part 4 - Fabric Selection & Assembly

[@CabbagePatchKidAmI]

Many have left comments saying they were inspired to make quilts from your videos, but they didn't come back to say if they finished it! So I'm here to say, your videos have single-handedly allowed me to try a dream of mine since I was young (but as a lefty everything was backwards to me so I was intimidated!). Late last night I completed my FIRST QUILT EVER (but NOT my last!) Some day I'm going to take a road trip & vist you all! Thank you SO MUCH for making my little dream COME TRUE! YIPPEE!!

[@joyfulhope4474]

Jenny, you are the best! So glad I found these tutorials. I've been wanting to make a baby quilt but being a true newbie, I've hesitated to even start. With your tutorials, I think I can dive right in now. So excited! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise. Being a visual learner, your step hy step breaks it down into manageable parts making it not so intimidating. Again thank you.

[@joannmccraw7235]

So glad you did a 4 part tutorial. This gives the newbies the ok to do it a little at a time without feeling they have to do the whole thing at once. You hit on several of the terms used in sewing ... a great thing to learn. And when you state 'no sewing police' and 'personal preferences' as it does not have to be perfect and you should make it your own ... that's awsome. Thank-you, Jenny.

[@nancyolson3884]

First time quilter and this video helped so much!

[@cecilianyberg4941]

I don´t have children, but I will find one very special to make this beauty and give it to him or her. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge! This is so great, fantastic and encourage to the new ones in this world of patchwork and quilting to do our job...learn..practice and become a master as Jenny. Thank you again!

[@pamdeoliveira6242]

wonderful baby quilt. Great lessons and Jenny you are a great teacher.

[@1mommybird]

After watching this tutorial, I made a quilt for my Grandson. I LOVED how easy it was by watching Jenny every step of the way. I have tried to learn how to quilt before, but it seemed way too complicating to me. Thank you Jenny, you took the fear out of quilting. You were able to show us beginners how to quilt, one step at a time. You made it look so easy, and I found out that it wasn't hard at all! I followed your step by step instructions and finished my Grandson's quilt! Time for another one!

[@aleneknox7369]

I have made baby quilts MANY times, but once again, I LEARNED from you, Jenny - things that will make it better. I thank you! My bias ending will be much better in the future!

[@yd5194]

I watched this video about four years ago with no experience in quilting. I had a sewing machine and knew how to do the basics (mending a hem, etc). All four parts of this tutorial were very easy to follow and about a month later I had finished my very first quilt. Fast-forward to today and I have made numerous quilts in many designs, and have even taken orders to make T-Shirt quilts! I am currently finishing up a King size quilt with Lemoyne Star design :) Thank you, Jenny!

[@cherylcouncil6806]

where an I order the binding tool used in no.4 baby quilt tutorial.

[@valerierosel2399]

That is fascinating. I just purchased a sewing machine and am going to try a baby quilt! I hope I can manage quilting with a standard sewing machine, but if you did it, maybe I can too!!!

[@katemum1]

I made 2 baby quilts with these instructions, 3 years apart, but didn't use pre-cut squares as I had some lovely British Liberty fabric. I had not done any sewing in years. Jenny is so clear and the videos doing stage by stage are brilliant. I was amazed that putting the squares together as suggested, the corners matched perfectly, even though I didn't have a rotary cutter. And then there was the bit for putting on the binding with that tool too ! Fabulous -- thank you !

[@mikaylastagg3723]

Expecting my first baby in 3 months and the woman who meant the most to me, my great grandmother, passed 7 years ago before she could teach me to make a quilt. I want to attempt to make one for my miracle baby.

[@nancyneyer865]

I just finished with my first baby quilt following Jenny's instruction and it looks magnificent! I had made a couple of quilts that I was pretty proud of UNTIL I did the finishing of it. Jenny has made it VERY easy for me to move forward with multiple quilts. If I get stuck I can always refresh myself with whichever lesson I need to continue. Absolutely LOVE this informative KZbin program. Thank You! : > )

[@katemum1]

these are the clearest instructions anywhere I've found! and I just ordered something from the company and got a nice little handwritten note on the receipt thanking me for my order ! Have to say it must be that lovely mid-western way of doing things!

[@Elvisandme100]

Thank you so much. It is so much easier to understand when you see a video of a person doing the quilt. Much harder to follow in a book. This is the best quilting video I have seen for beginners and I will try to make this quilt.

[@pearlhaynes6732]

I just finished a blanket for my granddaughter before I saw your video. You made this look so simply that I'm now going to make this baby quilt. I can't wait to get started. I love watching your videos and learning something new. Thank you for sharing your talent.

[@thegypsy1968]

I tell everyone Jenny is my quilting teacher. What she has taught me over the past year is absolutely priceless..Thank you Jenny! Missouri Quilt company is the best!!!!

[@honibear6478]

Jenny you are great! Due to your easy to follow tutorials, I have a PASSION for quilting now. I'm going to be a great-great- grandma next year and will make this for the new baby.

[@MrDrProfrawr]

I have been looking at several binding a quilt videos. Your video was the most helpful because it assumed the person making the quilt knew nothing. You were extremely clear. Now, I am ready to add the binding to my baby quilt. Thanks.

[@nataleeathomas]

Thank you very much for this tutorial. I bought my first sewing machine and have made my very quilt within 4 days! Your instructions are very clear and easy to follow. Thanks very much!

[@kimhaywood8739]

My daughter told me she wants a quilt for her 13 mth old son this weekend. I make him pants and things but had no idea how to make a quilt. I LOVED your videos. Thank you so much!! We are shopping tomorrow for fabric. :) :)

[@Ashygriffin]

oh my goodness... Im attempting my first quilt ever by hand and I am so very thankful that I found these videos. Trust me when I say they have helped me figure out how to finish this quilt for my little princess... ty so much

[@elisatembras6511]

Hi, I would just like to say thank you for all 4 videos. They have been so easy to follow, clear, easy instructions. I made my first quilt today and am very proud! A lovely gift for a friends daughter. Thanks again xxx

[@eathealthier4u]

It has been awhile since I made my last quilt - about 8 or 9 years, so anything I learned, I've just about forgotten! So this was a great "re-introduction" and since I was making my first grandbaby quilt, I wanted it to look half way decent! Thank you so much for your detailed videos, I so appreciate it!

[@lakshmivs7596]

thankyou Jenny. Your tutorials are wonderful. I am going to make a quilt for my son and daugher in law. Your tutorials are going to help me a lot in this. Thanks missouri quilt co. I am so far away in India. We have reached out to each other through your videos.thanks once again.

[@histemplefitness357]

Hello, my name is James and I started embroidering/sewing a year ago Christmas. My wife and I are expecting our first child in about 3 weeks and I wanted to try and make a baby quilt for her. Thank you for the time you invested in making this step by step video. The video made this project fun instead of an overwhelming process!!😁 I thank you and my soon to be little girl thanks you!!

[@MissouriQuiltCo]

That is an incredible story! :) You're daughter is already spoiled rotten and I love it!!! How sweet of you! Thanks for watching, we're so glad that you found this and decided to make something special for her! Congratulations! :)

[@1955annemarie]

It is a wonderful thing to be able to make a "quilt from the heart" for the child of your child; nothing feels as special or heartfelt or so full of love as a gift from a grandmother's own hands... Congratulations!!

[@1955annemarie]

Love the tutorials, finally realized I needed real quilting tools, but now I don't know how to get my hands on a crafting table that folds...or even a decent folding table, as long as it's waist high. Having the right tools makes all the difference in the experience!! :)

[@joyceriddle4300]

just learning to quilt and I have to say your videos are amazing. I'm learning to do baby quilts for our grandchildren. Its been exciting and frustrating at times already. Your tutorials will sure help. I have to admit the finish products have been worth the labor of love. Thanks.

[@MissouriQuiltCo]

Thank you so much for watching! :) Also, thanks for sharing this comment, we love it!

[@johannaholland6110]

Thank you for your help. I bought this tool in the UK and tried to follow the instructions printed on it but in the end had to watch you again. It worked although I do not have the confidence to cut before joining. Practice will make perfect!!!! Need to keep my laptop handy for a while.

[@dhamayanthiesivalingam9900]

I'm just a beginner . Your turorial is really helping me to learn from the scratch. Thank you so much.

[@nikitasha2000]

Absolutely awesome videos ! I'm from India & we dont have any quilting tools, but we try to manage, now i know the right technics , which will make it easier ! thank you so much for for sharing your skills... God Bless...

[@JenFitLifestyle]

Thank you so much!!! I have two grandchildren on the way and I really want to make them crib quilts but was very nervous since I have never made one before. Your video has shown ALL the steps from beginning to end. Thank you very, very much!!

[@rachelaholt7379]

11 years later... you are helping me make my first quilt for my niece due this summer. Thank you for the clear instructions! I watched all 4 videos this morning. I’m still a little intimidated but going to start anyway!

[@DitaBowenPhotography]

This tutorial is brilliant. Love the technique, definitely makes sewing quilt a lot easier and faster than my old way. I'm also excited to do the bias binding and borders as I never knew how to but it does a nice proffessional finish. Also what I love about these videos - they have no adverts in them! Thank you sooo much xx

[@paulajohnson6001]

Thank you! My grandmother used to sew beautiful quilts for the grandkids. She has passed away but I would like to carry on the tradition. Thank you for teaching me how.

[@carriedestler]

I'm a new quilter and I love these tutorials. Thanks so much for making something daunting seem a bit easier.

[@enjoyart5]

Thank you for this four part tutorial ! The intructions are clear and easy to understand. You are a great teacher !

[@hideeho52]

I have just recently got the crazy idea in my head that I would like to make quilts. I want to just jump right in there and get with it, but I'm trying to hold back a little. I'm pinning on Pinterest and now I'm watching videos on KZbin to learn as much as I can before I actually begin. I know these four tutorials are going to be a great help when I take the big leap. I love everything about what I'm seeing here. Thank you so very much for your hard work in putting these together!!!

[@MissouriQuiltCo]

Here's our collection of our videos on Essential Skills & Techniques. That may be helpful to you! :) kzbin.info/aero/PLF49CD99E1CFA0E6A

[@lindascharf9132]

Thank you for this information. It covers all processes of a quilt. It is so simple and quick. This is not only for our own babies but also a good idea for Project Linus. Thanks Jenny!!!
