I found your channel about a month ago. You are such an excellent teacher! I love how you break everything down and explain it so I don't feel overwhelmed! Thank you!

[@carolrice3832]

Thank you for the downloadable pattern. Will be making isolette quilts for our local women’s & children’s hospital. And my first quilt as you go quilt.

[@janistorres559]

I've never cared for clamshell quilts. That is, until I saw this one in black and white! Can't wait to try it.

[@trudywolcott7419]

I love the way you explain the process…so clear and distinct, and slow. Keep up the great work. We learn so much and we love your videos. 🎉

[@bethkoch11]

I like this method! I made a clamshell quilt once, and the curved piecing really gave me a headache, and I swore never again. This looks so much easier, and I love applique.

[@pattyw7952]

What a great way to do a clamshell AND it's quilt as you go to boot! Thanks for the tutorial, Laura! I have to admit I didn't know where you were going with this one but as usual your directions were clear as a bell in the end. Just love it!

[@paulajohnson6045]

Thats a great idea . I bet it you even look good with 10 inch squares too.

[@patriciamcgarr3183]

Love this version of a clam quilt. I would add red clams randomly for a spot of color. Love your videos!

[@Stoffmonster467]

Yes, or green with some gold, like a dragon skin🐉

[@jayneterry8701]

Very innovative 💡! I wouldn't have minded a 4" strip of black at the bottom either. Love clamshells Tyfs 💗🎃

[@deannaedgar7777]

I really enjoy how you explain things, you don't drag it out and it clear what to do. Really enjoy your videos

[@joymorley8006]

Hi Laura, your way is the best way I've seen to make a clam shell quilt. Thank you very much!

[@poohbear101]

Genius. I love the clamshell, but not all the work, that’s exactly why I have not made a clamshell quilt. Not I will ponder making one. Yours turned beautiful. Color combination and layout was perfectly placed👍

[@stephanierobbins2538]

You are amazing lady I have watched you for the last 4 years I really enjoy watching you

[@Marietml]

Superb! Definitely my next project! Thank u for all your ideas and videos. ❤️ it! Mariet Faasen, South Africa 🇿🇦

[@susanmei9980]

This turned out so cute! Great job designing an easier way to pull off this quilt! 🌷

[@jandenly]

What are the measurements of the backing and batting. I know it depends on # of clamshells, however how do you calculate.

[@janecatalano8621]

This would make such a lovely baby quilt in pastel colors. I think my new granddaughter has a present in her near future! Thanks so much for the tutorial, Laura!

[@Wanda6308]

You are an amazing lady. I have always loved this pattern but have not made it. You make this so easy to do. I have really enjoyed watching this video. I can hardly wait to make it. Thank you ever so much.

[@sandrasundell1190]

Love this! A quilt to sew after Christmas. Something for me. Thank you for the tutorial...💕

[@judithbaldwin2743]

Wonderful! So quick and actually looks like fun! Thank you!

[@suestutzle2779]

I loved this episode and I needed an idea to use my beach fabric. This will be perfect and always remind me of the beach where I was raised!!! Thank you so much. I love your show.

[@cynthiasmith6465]

Laura, I love your style. You are so beautiful. I wish I had your beauty and style. Please do more videos. I'm a trucker but 4 years ago i was a dog groomer, grandma and a content quilter. My now ex-husband forced me into trucking. Boy was he surprised when I showed up with a moving truck. I watch other people quilt while I'm the bunk to satisfy my quilting jones. Love from the road.

[@marye.taylor8349]

Great quilt, thanks Laura, your tutorials are always "sew very easy" you are a treasure!

[@GIIG21]

[@marilynhardman5239]

Fabulous idea! I will certainly be using this pattern. Thank you Laura! 💐

[@norahmcphee4928]

Good evening Laura Ann, this is definitely a quilt for a more sophisticated room, but it could be a man's quilt no problem i think, but i'm only on my 2nd quilt so what would i know. I do think though that matching pillow shams would be lovely, tie backs in the clam design , with the backing material as curtains (i'm a nightmare for like thinks matching in) this would just finish off an elegant room. Thank you flower for another lovely quilt trip into sharing the ease in which we can do patterns that we wouldn't normally want to try. Crafty hugs from Norah, Glenochil, Scotland

[@barbaramangel4746]

This is a gorgeous quilt! Thank you for teaching us how to make it.

[@alicepark2051]

Love the quick pattern. I can’t wait to try it. I have loads of scrap 5 inch squares. Thanks for the wonderful idea. I just finished making 4 of your table runners! Love that easy pattern too!

[@ellegroover]

Beautiful! I always enjoy your videos and always learn so much. Thank you so much for the videos !

[@pywagner]

Such a clever idea for the clam shell!! I love the look too but not crazy about sewing all those curved seams. Thank you for sharing this, Laura!

[@phyllisdippert2216]

I would never have tried clamshell until this tutorial. Good job!

[@lindamercer1736]

I have just made all my clamshells and am now ready to start fuse to batting. Loving this pattern. I have just pre ordered your Clamshell book. Thank you for all your GREAT videos. Linda x

[@maryt2887]

Enjoyed this quick variation on the construction of a clamshell quilt! Very ingenious!

[@lindaanderic]

This is a beautiful quilt, Laura. I am going to use this pattern to make throw pillows for gifts!

[@lorikalmeyer3501]

Holy crap Laura! This is incredible. I too have wanted to make a clam shell quilt but haven’t for the same reasons as you stated. But this method you created is a game changer. Thank you so much for figuring out a way to make this doable.

[@angelahomicz1813]

This is AMAZING! Thank you so much for sharing it. I will definitely be giving this a try

[@caroltemperley2261]

Wow Laura, this quilt is awesome 💖 Love this method. It sure beats doing it the EPP way. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@louisenordendale9056]

Thank you for your way of teaching! Very easy to understand! I never thought I would try the clam shell quilt but You changed my mind😊. ❤

[@bridgetwhite5547]

That's brilliant. I love the clamshell and the quilt is all done in one go brilliant. Thank you for sharing that process 😊 💐

[@stephiepeterson]

I love how approachable this makes sewing clamshells.

[@margaretshaw1562]

Thank you for this video and the many others that have inspired me. When I watch your videos, I feel like I’m visiting with a friend. I look forward to the next ones where I’ll learn something new. Thanks again.

[@trishtestrow3366]

Wow love this method. Another quilt added to my growing list. Thank you.

[@micheleh4016]

Great idea! I have been using the stabilizer method on my applique quilts for a while now and it works well. I sew all the way around then cut a small x in the back of the stabilizer and turn the piece right side out through that opening. Can't wait to try this with a couple of charm packs I purchased during my summer travels. Thank you.

[@debraholmes6290]

Love this technique Laura! Thank you for sharing!!

[@reginalucialopesmeskew8392]

Wow! I love this quilting technique! Very smart. Thank you for the awesome tutorial!

[@bettyochoa4099]

Omg!!! Thank you for making it this easy!! You are the best!!❤️

[@donnawilliams7478]

I would have never guessed you could quilt as you go with a clamshell. I love this video,

[@marisanepote9255]

What a lovely quilt! Thanks for sharing

[@Mickey-jn8hz]

When I saw the picture of the quilt, I was wondering how it was done. Amazing! Love it!

[@sandraeasley9354]

This really makes me want to make this pattern. It has always been a favorite but intimidating. You took the scary parts out. Thank you.

[@fair780]

I just received my quilt -as-you-go clamshell book. So excited to start one after the holidays. Thanks Laura!

[@lisafuller2027]

You put the C in classy Laura! Love your quilting tutorials🌷

[@bethsmith5208]

Love this!! I also like the clamshell but not all the traditional appliqué/piecing. This is genius

[@doreensherk287]

Wow, absolutely a genius way to put clam shells together. I wish they had a love or wow sign instead of just a thumbs up. That video would get a heart and a wow sign in my view. Thanks once again for a great learning video.

[@bettys375]

Love this quilt. It will be my next one. Your tutorial was excellent and thorough. Thank you for the tenacity in teaching. ❤
