Although I used to like symmetry in most things I've found recently that I'm beginning to like a looser effect. For me to even show random squares together mixing up every style is actually joyous if that makes sense. Your approach really does show us that scrappy can look so good if start with one concept in mind namely in this case keeping them to a colour family. I think that is the key to success so thank you.

Lovely! Agree with your plan of keeping the quilt in one color "family" - makes a stunning scrap buster! Look forward to part 2 with the border!

Not surprised at all that your channel is so appreciated. The way you look at and appreciate fabric shows through. And I won't quote you to my doc, but I fully agree that sewing can be great exercise:) In fact, I do not have my pressing/cutting station near my sewing station so that I HAVE to get up often and move around. My layout station is my bed on the other side of the house, so I get a lot of walking in too, especially as I usually design things on the fly as I sew. Sewing is good exercise for me and my my brain:) And so is your channel! Been watching for a while and just noticed I never subscribed... and now I am.

How beautiful this turned out. I belong to a group that makes and donates many items people in hospitals, care centers, shelters and many other organizations. I am always overwhelmed by the piles of scraps I have growing in my sewing room and struggle to find enough ideas to use them up. Thanks to your video, I now have a great way to get after them. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and ideas. Keep up the great work.

Best lesson ever! Thank you. I am a beginner sewer and less so a quilter. Your quilts are so beautiful. Your lessons are great for me, you talk as if you know there are ppl listening who cannot match colors without thinking 2-3 days about it and then giving up, and then weeks later your taste changes. Nobody cares if the colors are not perfectly matched or on the complimentary board of colors of … art. 😊 Thank you again. (I only watched 2 of your videos and loved them so much.)❤

Standing and moving around is better ‘exercise’ than sitting when making a quilt top, but sadly, it’s not a substitute for aerobic exercises. This looks like a fun way to make some blocks.

Yes, it's totally ergonomical. You can watch it demoed online. Martinelli is the brand. It only works with their blades. It takes a minute to hold it coreectly and use it well - but I have loved mine for years. They make both right handed and left handed cutters.
