Modern Trip Around the World - Fat Quarter Friendly tutorial and pattern

[@CrAzY91001]

I really love your videos. Very knowledgeable. Thank you

[@carolynowens7199]

I am impressed with your delivery. I get tired when I hear um and ah as if they are not sure what to say next. You know the techniques and convey to the audience correct information. Thank you.

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

Thank you so much. Glad you enjoy the video!

Thanks for sharing

I love how the color makes this quilt pop. I wish you would have paper patterns though. I would even pay a couple of dollars more. When I download a pattern I can't print in color, and sometimes the file becomes lost. Great video. I could give one little hint though that I learned at a class recently from Jacqueline de Jonge. If your machine turns the bottom seam back when you're sewing pieces together try using a piece of scotch tape on your machine base where it touches the throat plate. It works like a miracle to keep the seam in place. Keep giving us more videos. I learn so very much.

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

That is a great tip! And I am planning to print a collection of these patterns at some point. But right now we are sticking to just digital for the Stashin’ with Stephanie patterns. All of my other patterns are available in paper and pdf formats.

Beautiful

Lovely tutorial, lovely quilt. I have a question. Do you have a tutorial for the shirt you’re wearing in this video? Please correct me if I’m wrong, but it looks like a long sleeved T shirt with Kaffe fabric embellishment? I’d love to do something similar Thank you.

[@kristie092]

Loved meeting you at the Houston Quilt Show! Love your quilts....

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

It was great meeting you too!

[@marcycady3893]

Your top is adorable! do you mind sharing what the pattern is? Many thanks!

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

It's called Modern Trip Around the World!

[@marcycady3893]

I know the name of your quilt pattern, I was asking about your shirt top. Thanks. @@QuiltAddictsAnonymous

[@karengriffiths4574]

I wish to purchase the pattern but I would need to make a king size quilt. 102" wide by 92" long. ? Would the pattern contain details.for these sizes please

[@keressabeverage2622]

Oh man, I was so excited but you lost me when you said your center was not in the center! Do you have a tutorial with the center in the center? Lol. Love this idea, but I am such a visual, literal learner I need that tutorial! Haha thx !

[@kathyskwiltzkrafts276]

I am new to your quilting channel. I love all the colors you chose to make this quilt. I have made three trips around the world quilts. One King size, one Twin size, and one all size quilt. I love making these quilts. I have my own quilting channel here on KZbin called " Kathy's Kwiltz. " I enjoyed watching this video very much. I will definitely be watching more of them.

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

I am glad you enjoyed it!

More pictues / camera, less talking. Ugg.

[@QUEENAMINAH718]

Hi Stephanie, I just purchased the pattern. Without giving anything away I read/reviewed the pattern directions and found that the squares should be same size. However, at the 22:01 mark it appears that the squares are different sizes. Would you please offer some clarity. Thank you.

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

The squares are all the same size. What you are seeing is what it looks like when three of the four seam allowances are sewn. It makes it look like a rectangle because the final side still needs to be attached. Hope that makes sense.

[@patriciamcgarr3183]

Jordan fabrics channel does a trip around world where she cuts the squares and puts the piles in a circle and sees her strips that way. Her name is Donna. Some might find it easier

[@Shelleyvanhouten27]

I wish I could follow your pattern, I’d buy it in a minute. It just seems too complicated for me. I’ve only made 3 quilts…I think I would have anxiety trying to lay out the fabric properly. I do have a design wall, I guess I will have to do it the old fashioned way, even though I LOVE your pattern! Also, the Kaffe Fassett fabrics. I wanted to use jelly rolls instead of fat quarters. I think your strips might be 3.5 .

[@lisabird1363]

Just a quick heads up: Some longarmers will not quilt tops with pressed open seams. There is not as much strength in a pressed open seam (prior to quilting) and long arms do pull at your quilt top a bit. Ask your longarm quilter first.

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

I am a longarmer and I love seams that are pressed open.

[@lisabird1363]

I am a longarmer also and most of the time pressed open seams work fine for me. But, I have been told that there are longarmers out there who won't quilt a top that way. Just seems prudent to make sure it's ok with whatever longarmer one wants to work with.

[@barbgraham79]

I have 20 half yards of different fabric for trip around the world, can I make this pattern work with those, thanks

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

This pattern uses 24 prints, so you would need to alter it a bit

[@kathyhart5105]

I wish you would have shown us the whole quilt top.

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

You can see it at 1:35

[@elsafischer3247]

I love your top with the beautiful quilting fabric

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

Thanks!

[@serenefarr3666]

The top you are wearing looks great on you. You should wear that colour more often 😃

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

Thanks!

[@donnafelter9757]

Can this quilt be made larger?

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

You could if you added more fat quarters.

[@hildiborkowski4436]

Did you sew the strips in alternating directions to avoid “bowing”? Maybe it’s not necessary for this application

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

You don’t need to do that if you press your seams open.

[@BeeBalm001]

Make your own ironing board so you can draw a straight line with a sharpie. As you iron the seams open make sure the fabric lines up with the line; therefore your strips remain straight. If this doesn't help, then yes, alternate directions.

[@lindamattson6281]

I like the top that you are wearing. Did you make it yourself? If so, where can I get the pattern. You do a very good job at explaining what you are doing when making your quilts. Thank you.

[@susandt3856]

Beautiful tunic. It fits you so well and you look fabulous in it. May I ask what pattern you used to make the top? Also, I’m confused...I thought Free Spirit was going to quit selling quilt fabric. What is your take on that subject?

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

FreeSpirit was purchased by another company and will still be producing fabric. And I used a pattern from The Tunic Bible. We have it at shop.quiltaddictsanonymous.com.

[@1Nadnerb2]

May I ask You what do you mean when You say scant seam allowance ? does that mean you give a little more room in the allowance?

[@kathyhart5105]

A scant quarter inch seam is a little bit smaller then a quarter inch seam.

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

You just move your needle one position to the right and you’ll see a scant seam.

[@loraineleuschke4186]

Less seam allowance. One needle space less.

[@1Nadnerb2]

Is this a bargello type quilt?

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

It is similar to one.

[@stephanniemetz3610]

Thank you!❤️

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

You’re welcome!

[@serenefarr3666]

Love kaffe fabrics

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

Me too! And Alison Glass!

[@kganda415]

I'm confused. Sorry. Video showed more on the pressing side rather than the actual putting the quilt together. Peace. Pretty colors tho.

[@Danielle33384]

I don’t know why but this seemed more difficult than it usually is.

[@BeeBalm001]

Instead of sewing the two big pieces together, cuz its just too much fabric to handle, i cut those pieces the width I need and then sew the strips together. Much easier on my wrists and goes fast.

[@jylromain6439]

Too much wasted time and thread with tearing out seams. I'd rather chain piece the way I was taught. This seems much more complicated.

[@bella-bee]

A little bird told me something about strip sewing, to alternate the direction of sewing or after a while the assembled strips start to bow in one direction. So I guess you’d flip it over and stitch back from the other side. It was a jelly roll speed quilt of stripes in that case, so longer seams but similar. Just a thought.

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

That doesn’t happen when you press your seams open.

[@jonniecorson8741]

I love all your quilt's. But I feel you talk more than you need to. It has me fast forwarding to the next step. Also you do not tell us how many bundles we will need. Or what size your working on.

[@juliabaumgras4304]

I'm an experienced quilter and found this quite confusing. You must have the pattern I guess for it to make sense. :(

[@lilyreich8518]

It's a beautiful quilt, but it is too complicated for me.

[@janetflint8202]

I was going to ask you if that was kaffe...I have a piece....lol

[@QuiltAddictsAnonymous]

Alison and Kaffe go together nicely!

[@myrnasymes1536]

Did not finish the quilt. Too much talking not enough demonstration. Did not describe size of quilt.
