You saying "it doesn't matter" makes me feel better as a new quilter!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Good!!

[@barbarajohnson1572]

You have just put into words exactly how i feel making scrap quilts.... thank you for this "validation"......Hugs, GB

[@diannenaworensky6698]

LOVE that fabric with the Little Chameleons !!!!!!

[@lindarambone5305]

You take scrappy to a new level. Your designs and the way you use colors are amazing. Such simple patterns create such beautiful quilts. You make my heart very happy. I can't wait to try the wonky quilts. 💜

[@wilycat5290]

Love the quilt and even more, love your attitude. So refreshing. Thank you for the video 😊👍💕

[@heavensmountains323]

What a fun project from start to finish! 🇨🇦👍💕

[@merrymabelmarket]

Yes. This one is SO much fun.

[@dorothyheisey2150]

Such a delight to watch you! Thank you very much ♥️

[@merrymabelmarket]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@robinnickerson3319]

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!

[@lisascenic]

I love the enthusiasm you bring to your work!

[@terryanderson6153]

You make me giggle too😂. As always, you are amazing and talented!

[@merrymabelmarket]

You're the best!

[@carolentringer8836]

Love this!

[@MrsRebeccaSperry]

Love your voice! Also your creative choices. I see you only have a few quilting videos but I subscribed and I’m looking forward to more 🤞

[@merrymabelmarket]

You are so kind. Thank you!!

[@lynetteperry3559]

i love that idea

[@adrianaturlea6861]

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.)❤

[@merrymabelmarket]

I appreciate your comment. I do know that people find "color" difficult - but, practice helps a lot!

[@barbarajohnson1572]

Just what i needed...LOVE THIS... i too love scrap quilts that feature "one color"....

[@CouponShopping]

Such amazing talent, love the giggles and the narrative 🙂

[@ritaleek4588]

Love this. You are amazing, thanks for posting!

[@vikkirountoit497]

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.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you for your comments and for subscribing!

[@marygeorge9688]

Thank you for sharing this pattern. I enjoyed watching you put the quilt together. I look forward to trying this myself.

[@patpalmer1337]

Wow! Just ran across your videos today...July 4th, 2023....Watching several....What fun!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Glad you like them!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Glad you like them!

[@vickieinman6621]

I love this pattern. It works so well with all the scrappy sizes and material! Thank you.

[@juliatepe5760]

Are you sure you don't want to keep it for youself? Very pretty table topper.

[@bridgetwhite5547]

Really lovely quilt. Thank you😊

[@user-mf3td9iw6f]

Очень интересный вариант. Желаю вам дальнейших творческих успехов и ждём новых видео.

[@marionbartley214]

Such a cute quilt square, i like it as a table topper. Will need to add this to my list of quilts to make. Thank you for this video.❤

[@suebean3873]

Beautiful, thank you! I love it.

[@Art930]

I've been quilting for years but have never gotten around to making a log cabin because the precision piecing required "hurt my brain". Your quarter blocks really appeal to me and I'm glad you came up in my feed. Also, your voice is really p!easant.

[@merrymabelmarket]

I may do a demo on a whole wonky "log cabin quilt" in the future. It's SO fun to do!!

[@susanvansluyters4470]

So simple, and so beautiful.

[@DH-qz2so]

Your videos, I must say, are probably the m ost enjoyable on KZbin for quilting videos...and I watch a lot of them...there is just something so.... fun and inspiring about them...normal and do-able...and a have fun/not worry about the Quilt Police hiding in the bushes, peeking through our sewing room window, making sure we are following protocols!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Wow, thank you! So funny.

[@debraimmer260]

I love your ideas

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you! And I think that everyone should get to own a longarm. (Better than any car I've owned ever!)

[@staceylitalien8161]

How amazing!!❤

[@joyharper89]

Brilliant way to use scraps!!

[@cynthiajones1461]

I've watched this 3 times now and have started 2 quilts with this pattern for future great grandchildren and I wanted to encourage all your viewers to make one because it's really a fun quilt to make. Also, I love how your personality and thought process comes through in your videos.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you. That IS a fun pattern!!

[@helenrose9028]

Love it! You're a great instructor!

[@merrymabelmarket]

I appreciate that!

[@heavensmountains323]

I LOVE IT! 💕👍🥰

[@kimlettau4167]

Absolutely gorgeous 😍

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@authenticallyamber99]

[@merrymabelmarket]

I am so glad you find the videos happy and helpful!!

[@thecheekyquilters]

Love that rotary cutter!

[@suebennett3715]

We need to find doctors that quilt!! Love how well you show great basic techniques & talk about happy brain.

[@andreamccon9988]

What a great idea! Thanks for showing us how to quilt the scraps that way.

[@analuciamoreno3938]

Muy lindo trabajo. Felicitaciones 👏👏👏

[@kathiwagner4190]

Im a long time seamstress (made my wedding dress) but so new to the quilty thing. I've watched this video & the string quilt video more than once. I love the process, your commentary, your "rules" & sense of design. I'm gonna do this thing.

[@merrymabelmarket]

My prediction is that you will be totally successful!!

[@lesleygilbert1945]

Great tutorial - thank you - watching from England 😍

[@carolentringer8836]

I made two sets of four. I’d never made such a large block before. It was super fun.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Agree!! So fun!

[@JudyHart1]

Just adorable

[@wandaramos4091]

Uau!!!! Ficou linda!!! Obrigada pelo carinho ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

[@joantabb3062]

Fantastic. I just love this. 😊😊😊

[@merrymabelmarket]

So glad!

[@GypsyinAus]

Oh my gosh! This is fabulous! I think I can do this ...and Thank you for the free PDF...I’m loving your tutorials. Watching from Australia 💜💜💜💜💜

[@merrymabelmarket]

You can do it!

[@maureentaphouse5206]

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.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thanks for sharing!

[@kimcarter1810]

On my gosh! I can't wait to try it.

[@szelop]

Love it!

[@margaretbaker623]

Hello 😊. You're a great teacher. I enjoy listening to you as you talk us through the process. Thank you! ⚘️

[@roseannegibson3343]

Really nice

[@Imjetta7]

This is fantastic!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you.

[@bonniestalhiem8025]

Just discovered your channel…and so glad that I did! If your other videos are as great as this one, I’ll be a lifelong subscriber💖👵🏻

[@merrymabelmarket]

Hooray!! Welcome aboard!!

[@littleluluscraps]

Your advice 🤣🤣🤣 Love it!! So easy too. Looks great as a table topper!

[@sandrapolizzi629]

I watch your videos over and over again and I’m amazed each time…I can’t cut straight, or sew straight so I think I need to loosen up and just do string and wonky quilts 😅 I truly love watching. Before I sign off…do you have any special ways of making your quilt backs and sandwiching…😊 I look forward to see what you come up with in 2024♥️♥️

[@merrymabelmarket]

I do my quilting and layering on my longarm, so it's pretty regular. I love that you love wonky quilts. Probably the more relaxed you get, the straighter you'll be able to cut and sew!! I'll hope that for you!

[@KelleysQuiltsandCruises]

I love kind of winging it like this. Great idea you had.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you! 😊

[@HeidiSanToro]

This is awesome

[@brendaromanuck1280]

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.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you for your wonderful comment.

[@2kah286]

adorable!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thanks. I just quilted one today!!

[@2kah286]

so so cute@@merrymabelmarket i want to make one right now🙂

[@mariajosedeval3304]

🌟🌟🌟😃😃😃👏👏👏 María José 💖💖

[@redhotsweetpotatoe]

New subscriber and I'm thrilled to have found your channel. I love your style, we think a lot alike.☺

[@omisfavorites1054]

Love your approach. I’m definitely going to try this!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Have fun!

[@angieallen4884]

Fun video, thanks. The final product is really cute but that way the rounds don't necessarily line up would "bother my brain!" We each have our own brain issues, for sure. I enjoy your content!

[@stelamaris5610]

Amei a criação 😍

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

Thank you

[@nancymathisen9707]

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.

[@user-ge7dx9kf4c]

🎉❤

[@karenkalinoski9095]

I like your rotary cutter 😊 I think I’m going to look for one to see if it helps with my arthritis. Do you know what brand you’re using? Love your videos!!

[@merrymabelmarket]

It is a Martinelli cutter. You must use their blades. You can google and see them demoed online. It is ergonomic and I love mine.

[@kims.9677]

This looks so fun! I just finished my goal for March, so I have a few days to play with scraps and might try this. Could you tell me what rotary cutter you use? I think it might be more gentle on my wrist.

[@merrymabelmarket]

It is a Martinelli Cutter. You can look them up online and watch demos. They will only work with Martinelli blades - so be aware of that. Yes, they are amazing cutters. I've used mine for years and years. I love it. (They come in left and right handed.)

[@kims.9677]

@@merrymabelmarket Thank you!

[@carolentringer8836]

I wonder what brand of longarm you will be using? I hope you will consider showing it to us.

[@merrymabelmarket]

You can see it on the video where I applique with Minkee. (Look for the thumbnail with an octopus.) It's an APQS Millie.

[@GrandmaPatty49]

Do you have a printable pattern for this?

[@merrymabelmarket]

We are making one just because you asked. Check our website for a free printable by next week.

[@GrandmaPatty49]

Has the pattern been made yet for the fast and fun quilt top?

[@terriflanigan942]

Please tell me what kind of rotary cutter you’re using? Thank you for the videos!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Martinelli. You can look it up online. They are ergonomic and I love mine. You must use their blades though, so be aware of that.

[@carolentringer8836]

I have arthritis in my hands. Do you think that the shorter rotary cutter you’re using helps your wrists?

[@merrymabelmarket]

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.

[@reginadino7146]

Hello!! Where are you from, Merry?

[@merrymabelmarket]

Western United States. 💕

[@reginadino7146]

I know you are from USA, but I would like to know the city. I am from Belgium, intending to go to USA and I would like to meat you. Is It possible? Thanks

My I watch tells me I sometimes walk four miles just going back and fort in my sewing room sometimes.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Best exercise ever!

[@user-mf3td9iw6f]

Извините, я не очень хорошо понимаю английский язык. Какой размер в окончательном варианте?

[@merrymabelmarket]

40 x 40 inches.

[@user-mf3td9iw6f]

Спасибо, совсем запуталась пока перечитывала дюймы в сантиметры.

[@GrandmaPatty49]

Love this!
