How to Make a Bundles and Bows Quilt - Free Project Tutorial

[@suewelliver6275]

I like the "trick" that ends up being such a cute block.

[@maryhutto]

I agree with most. A single block looks like a lobster, minus his tail. Four blocks together in this presentation looks like the top of a present.

[@kellyrobinson1146]

I think MSQC should coin the term, “weirdly funky” to always be when someone cuts backwards, 😂. Jenny is fun even when she is serious. 😊

[@rmcrms5]

I made this quilt last year in Fig Tree Christmas fabric. It's a beautiful quilt.

[@carolynmills513]

Love the Material Girl. She has free patterns a lot. I'm going to check to see how much this one is. I thought there's no way I can do that, but I think I can! Great instruction, Jenny

[@SharonNickson]

It’s so amazing how clever these patterns come out with imaginative cutting 😊

[@diannekelly7255]

🇨🇦 The lobster is what I first saw as well. What a beautiful quilt.

[@roseannecarratkinson4271]

This is such a cute quilt! I have some layer cakes that are just hanging out waiting for the right pattern and I think this is it. Thanks Jenny.

Looks like the Bernatte machines didn't pass the test. Glad to see the Baby Lock's back.

[@AngelaColeman-vc6nc]

This was one of your best tutorials yet! Thank you.

[@sead705]

I agree

[@SusieMonk-jh8tj]

Beautiful. Awesome how their minds work so many patterns from one block. I can only do that by accident🤣🤣🤣🤭

[@patriciamcgarr3183]

I would do a small wall hanging 4 blocks square and use Xmas fabric since it looks like the top of a present.

[@Landengrady]

I made this quilt. It was very fun and super fast.

[@ellensweat5251]

Thanks Jenny. Very interesting quilt block construction.

[@irenecarrizales6590]

I love watching your tutorials! You explain everything so precisely!! Thank you!!

[@cuteyrupert9483]

Just noticing the vintage irons an small sewing machines on the shelves behind you, awesome, and lovely block!

[@sandybruce9092]

I can get distracted with those items in the shelves! Wish I had more wall space where I sew for shelves like these - guess I really need to move downstairs to the dining room which we have never used in 25 years - dint even have a specific table for it😁😁😁

Love the fabric line and the pattern. The spider print you put on the back looks brilliant!😊

[@marshawallace7522]

I love Halloween fabrics and as you said, this is a delightfully clever pattern❣️ Thanks for introducing me to the material girls patterns.

[@catherinemerwin2678]

Amazing how the block comes together! As you said at the beginning, it is quite clever and I'm scratching my head trying to figure out how it will possibly work! Very cool pattern. Thanks so much.

[@kayfombell8844]

Another great fun quilt! I think this would be a fabulous two color quilt!

[@sandybruce9092]

That’s a great idea! I saw a few two color layer cakes a few minutes ago in MSQC website that I really liked!

[@MrsBobsMom]

In some of the layouts I sort of see vertical stripes. I am wondering how it would look alternating red and white for those “stripes” and blue for the stars to make a patriotic quilt.

[@CoalNovah1285]

Looks like a lobster 🦞

[@yapper80]

Yup it does

[@anndalynnketellapper8296]

😂I thought the same thing when I saw it!!

I was just thinking the same thing. It’s missing its tail though.

No offense to the girls but your demonstration is 1 million times better than theirs. When you follow their video your chances of getting sit between slim and none. This makes it feel like I can do it and I won't be wasting fabric.

[@amyspanne5629]

I tried this today using light and dark blue scraps, just to test how it would look. It looks pretty good. Here are some thoughts: the fabric choices between background & star need to be strong differences, light/dark, red/blue, etc. Avoid combining florals in both light and dark sides, one side is okay, because the blocks come out muddy and you can't really see the stars. You might get away without the background layer cake, and just use one layer cake if the cake is about 1/2 one strong group & 1/2 another. So, a layer cake I had recently that was pretty evenly divided between navy, red, beige and white would work with the reds & blues being dark and the beige & whites being light. I used painter's tape to mark my ruler and twice (!) cut right down the middle instead of 1.75" off set. It's like driving on the wrong side of the road. Focus! Focus! Focus! You're dealing with bias when you sew the triangles back on the center. Be careful not to stretch and resist the temptation to remove that tiny triangle -- for 2 of my blocks they were needed in the trim down. Once the block is completed, there is a generous 1/4-3/8" to trim, so "wonky" can be cut to "wonderful," just keep going. Finally, Jenny is okay with ironing any old which way, but I did find that seams nested better if I was consistent about ironing to the dark side, and on the finished blocks, made all the light arrows go one way & dark arrows the other. It went together really quickly, in spite of my couple bad cuts and remaking a few muddy blocks. Would I make another one? Maybe. Depends. For all the fussy cutting, I might prefer to make a similar design with just half square triangles, squares and rectangles. Then my seams would line up and I'd avoid sewing bias edges. .

[@MrsBobsMom]

Lol, I love Jenny but I cringe every time she picks up an iron. Maybe someday she will discover the joy of precision pressing to go with her new-ish appreciation for squaring blocks. 😂

Cute

[@MichelleFrazier-ze3xu]

This looks like another GE Designs quilt pattern. Regardless, using the stripology ruler would save an immense amount of time for the cutting, especially on the corner cuts.

[@Vio-ot4ft]

It looks like four little bat-heads in the middle of the block! Cute!

[@robertacaruthers7568]

Nice.

[@susanmei9980]

Who else saw a crab 🦀 at 15:15 when she held up the block? 😂

[@hollycaron3567]

I was thinking more like a lobster.. embroider some antenna and maybe feet and there it is.

[@gardencat4952]

Isopropyl alcohol will also remove shaprie marker from most things.

[@sandybruce9092]

Thanks! I thought about just using blue tape or those ones that come three neon colors to a pack! I’ve never marked directly on any of my rulers and it’s good to know how to remove the mark without damaging the rest of the measurements!

[@hollycaron3567]

Interesting pattern. when you trimmed it up I thought it looked like a lobster.

[@gracaoliveira3476]

How big is the block

[@saminamalik6516]

Today I am the first to watch

[@nancyweeks9840]

I wish you showed a couple other layouts!

[@sandybruce9092]

I see that each block needs two matching 10” squares from the layer cake but so many layer cakes do not come with duplicates - do I need to purchase 2 identical layer cakes?

[@TheChimeneB]

The original pattern just used two similar color squares.

[@mgibson1242]

Use “wet erase” markers on your rulers.

[@dianepike827]

The link to the pattern isnt working for me. 😢

[@karenwerts2331]

[@susanphillips944]

I really did not like the fabric. So the pattern did not grab me. Maybe in a Kaffe or a batik would entice me. But the quilt you did a few years ago of a similar type star I did sew that with some MSQC fabric and gifted it,

[@sandybruce9092]

I would have preferred a fabric with more contract - thinking about a Halloween layer cake with more vivid fabrics! This is too dull for me, but I do see lots of other choices!

[@sandybruce9092]

I just took a look at the quilt pictures in the pattern and the colors are stronger and toe different but compatible colors are used - works better for me since quite a few layer cakes don’t come with duplicates (I have several of this kind!)

[@booomanchu]

I was thinking two colors. Example all blues for the focal and black background

[@suzannegogranogo9464]

The link to the pattern is not working for me either
