Love this! I wouldn't have considered it just looking at the pattern but now I will!!

[@aprilscraftroom]

Some patterns are like that - until you see them come together you're like - eh. I need to try this with a mixture of prints and solids - it would be great to show off a fun pattern. Thank you for watching and commenting. April

[@micheleh4016]

" I didn't cut these so they should all be the same size." LOL Boy can I relate to that! Every time I cut out pieces for a quilt I get closer and closer to buying an Accuquilt machine.

[@aprilscraftroom]

I'm glad I am not the only one. I purchased an Accuquilt machine, but I don't use it regularly. Evidently I prefer to struggle. In my defense, I don't have all the dies so sometimes quilt patterns call for sizes I don't have. Thank you for watching and commenting. April

[@micheleh4016]

@@aprilscraftroom - You might check with your guild if you belong to one. Ours keeps an inventory of members who have dies and which ones they are willing to share. Quilters are so giving!!!

Love my dark chocolate!!! Love this nice easy project!! Thanks for sharing.

Me too. I am especially fond of Dark Chocolate Hershey kisses right now. I got a dark chocolate bar from IKEA and it is true dark chocolate. Not quite as sweet as the Hershey kisses but quite good. Thank you for watching and commenting. April

I’ve been cutting all my remnants into 10 inch squares, and I have been searching for a video on how to use them in a quilt. I loved your video tutorial. I plan to watch the others, but your blooper reel at the end and especially your comment about dark chocolate made me hit the subscribe button. I’m going to grab a chunk of dark chocolate and will watch you complete the quilt.😀

[@aprilscraftroom]

Wonderful! Thank you so much for watching! April

Hello April .. I have purchased fat quarters they are all solid colours and I was wondering if there is an easy quilt that i can make using the squares to look like a jelly roll strip?? what would be the measurements of each new square?? I have now made 3 rag quilts, 4 disappearing 9 square quilts and I am going to try to make this other one.. also when i use fleece for my backing can i still use my walking foot to use to sew it together with the batting ... ? You are so talented and would you ever come to Canada esp Ontario to put on a workshop at a quilting store ?? if so please do come..!!Thanks for your time and you are fantastic.. your Canadian friend Sharon Nissen..

Hi april i am very very nervous to start...i love your directions...any words of encouragement or tips...thanks donna

[@aprilscraftroom]

Like Nike says - Just do it! There is no better way to learn than by doing it. The very first quilt I made was for my Granddaughter and I knew she wouldn't care if it wasn't perfect. I also used fabrics that I just loved. It is fun using something you like because well, you like it. LOL. And you can always rip out those stitches. It is only fabric and I even enjoy making quilts when I am ripping out stitches - it is just all part of the process. If you are super nervous, make some placemats for your table. They are like mini quilts and when you're done - you've practiced and you have something to decorate your table. Thank you for watching and commenting. I hope you are super pumped to go make something now. 😀 April

[@1955rivergirl]

Hummm how did you know I had 10’ squares just laying around 😂😂😂😂 Love your Ironing board, you will have to show up how it’s made!!

[@aprilscraftroom]

I'm going by personal experience. LOL. I will show my ironing board - it is one of those rolling tables with the big leaves that fold down to make it really skinny. They sell an ironing pad that fits the table when it is fully extended. It makes it great for ironing a large project. Thank you for watching and I hope you try this quilt with your stash. 😃 April

[@thecraftlair]

Yay love this!! What type of fabric do you use for your design wall- and do you use pins?

[@aprilscraftroom]

@Harvest Ham My design wall is flannel wrapped foam insulation board that is attached to the studs in my unfinished basement to form faux walls. I do not use pins in my design wall. Thank you for watching and commenting. April

Hi Harvest. How are you feeling today I hope your day is as bright as your pretty smile today.

[@dottierobbins939]

Where did you get the green mat you have on your sewing machine?

[@aprilscraftroom]

It is called a Sew Steady Grid Glider. It smooths the surface where the machine bed and the extension table or sewing cabinet meet. I have an affiliate link in the description or you can google it. It works nicely and is not as expensive as some other mats that do the same thing. Thank you for watching. April

[@001mrjacko]

are you cutting on your table or is that a super big cutting mat. if it is a mat where did you find it.

[@aprilscraftroom]

Hi it is a table that has a huge cut matt on it ... the matt came from Joann ... you can find it usually around where they keep the thread / patterns Hope this helps Thanks for watching April

[@MsDale1976]

Wonder what it would look like with a pattern layer cake?

[@aprilscraftroom]

I did a quilt with all Crayola fabric and no solids and it was quite busy. I don’t mind busy and if you don’t then it will be beautiful. If you don’t like busy I would make sure there were a few ‘solids’ included. Thank you for watching and commenting. April

Enjoyed the video per usual but really don't like the quilt (maybe pattern). 🤔 Curious enough to continue watching this through to completion. 🌸

[@aprilscraftroom]

It might be the pattern or it might be the fabric that you don't like. I totally get it. I pieced quilt tops for 2 years before I figured out that I would enjoy it much more if I used fabric with colors that I like. I was just doing the mystery block of the month so the color way was picked for me. I hope you enjoy the basting, free motion quilting and binding tutorials coming up. :-). Thank you for sticking it out. April
