Is there any way to get the pattern for that beautiful quilt being used as a tablecloth at very beginning of video…Is has a black ground …Is very bold and I love it..Any help would be greatly appreciated….Thank you so much

[@cmaranatha9890]

I am not a quilter and I do not care for the design of a lot of quilts - I prefer the look of simple patchwork quilts. This rectangle/brick layout design I love! Your demonstration was clear and well done.

[@stargazer7512]

I agree! As impressive as it is with what all the machines can do these days, it just feels too gawdy and like it misses the point. But this hand-sewn style is so charming. And more talent involved IMO

[@AussieCrimeCases]

yes! im a patch or brick lover, maybe even hexagons, but Im not into the fancy, complicated looking designs! Too busy for me

[@Kate98755]

I’m the same, i love the crazy quilt look, so homespun. I’m going to do this. I love English paper piecing…this reminds me of that look. I try to do all quilts…quilt as you go, because they’re finished faster!

[@nocomment4642]

You are so right ! A great idea beautifully sewn. Brilliant !

[@kurehanzo]

Me as well! Not a quilter and the designs mostly are not for me nor I have the patience to sew quilts, but I LOVE this particular brick design. Makes me want to try it.

[@MoonSpinners]

There are hardly any videos showing hand sewing quilt as you go methods. This video was fab, as I haven’t got a sewing machine and love hand sewing. Thank you 🤗

[@peggyramirez368]

Thank you for using black thread. It is so much easier to see what you are demonstrating. Wonderful tutorial!❤

[@BarkingBunny]

Thank you for this! I love hand sewing but find hand quilting to be so tedious and repetitive when doing a large blanket, but with this method it’s much smaller and you can change it up by switching between making rectangles and sewing them together! Much easier for us adhd crafters! I also like this method because it’s easier to tuck everything away and take breaks if you need.

[@duckrivermama66]

👁👁 I really like this style. It is something you can carry with you most anywhere, and continue with the work.

[@itsjustme7169]

Using black as the backing could give it a pretty stain glass look ❤

[@stitchwithrachel]

Ooooo I've never considered that, but I always loved the stained glass quilts!

[@patwilson5017]

I appreciate your slow thorough instructions. You're a good teacher, thanks.

[@stitchwithrachel]

Thank you x

[@michelelaube8794]

Oh my gosh, this is one really beautiful quilt. I just stumbled upon your channel and have been enjoying this video immensely. I have never been much of a quilt person, although I have always admired the handiwork. I am 67 and have only just discovered English Paper Piecing. What a different world this has opened up for me. I am absolutely smitten by the process and look, and this quilt of yours seems to showcase it in such a beautiful way. The mindfulness of slow stitching has brought me such calm and peace… I have never seen such a beautiful quilt. Everything about it sends me and I absolutely love it. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@stitchwithrachel]

Thank you, it is such an easy project to stitch aswell. EPP was how I got into hand stitching too.

[@angelacarrasquilla5816]

Me encantó este proceso manuel de obtener algo hermoso como esa colcha. Tengo 73 años y creo que lo haré en algo pequeño como un camino de mesa. GRACIAS MIL POR TU TUTORIAL.

[@maryt2887]

I have not seen this hand stitched method of quilt-as-you-go before. It looks like fun and you have clearly shown how to do it. Thank you!

[@stitchwithrachel]

I think it created a really neat edge with hand sewing!

[@shirleygammage8293]

I have started this brick work hand quilting. My first time hand sewing a quilt. I decided to use washable school glue for basting and it works quite wonderfully. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@janice2992]

I think these bricks will make beautiful additions to clothes pockets, bags etc. It's a great way of quilting. You have given me ideas thank you 💖

[@appalachianmama3384]

I appreciate the time you have taken and the effort you made for this tutorial, very clear instructions. I am looking forward to making a quilt like this. Thank you! 💐

[@ndean1687]

I really like this! You've made it look so easy! And, I like the way you go slowly, and explain what you're doing. I didn't feel like you rushed it, like some people. Thanks. 😊

[@jackikordich7397]

Thank you for using a different color thread than you normally would that makes it possible for me to see quite easily what you're doing which is what is missing from a lot of the tutorials you just can't see what they're doing with the black thread on white that you're using it's really easy to follow you thank you

[@deniseacebo9679]

My mom used to call that a blind hem stitch. Thank you for this tutorial. ❤❤❤

[@margaretlayhe6188]

Enjoyed watching your demo, Rachel. You have a gentle way of presenting.

[@stitchwithrachel]

Glad you enjoyed it x

[@cgoodson2010]

I love that you're handstitching your work. My grandmothers made quilts during the Great Depression. They handstitched everything, and I want to pay them homage by doing the same ❤️

[@stitchwithrachel]

Aww this will be a lovely project for that. Thank you for watching x

[@patriciaallen3138]

Thank you for video. I have watched this video earlier. Then I remember you showed how to do the Jacob ladder stitch. So, I came to watch again to relearn how to do the stitch. Thank you again.

[@stitchwithrachel]

Glad it was helpful! Happy stitching ❤️

[@elizabethsmyth8057]

Thank you for doing this Rachel. I love the brickwork effect.

[@stitchwithrachel]

You're welcome, it's really affective with the cream aswell. X

[@rosemacalpine7496]

Thank you for an excellent tutorial. I’d love to see the finished quilt, I’m sure it must be very attractive. Using the black thread whilst demonstrating is a very good idea.

[@stitchwithrachel]

You're welcome, I have only done a small section of the quilt so far but I will be sure to post updates on my channel x

[@anneduigan4933]

what a lovely collection of sweetly printed fabrics

[@dukecity7688]

I'm not sure why I love this pattern so much - maybe it's the charming patterns she's using. idk - so appealing.

[@user-we2mn5ym6x]

Чудесно ❤ спасибо большое,все понятно!Я люблю шить квилт,это новое для меня,буду пробовать.❤ещё я учу английский и слушать вас мне приятно и полезно ❤будьте здоровы

[@tonditerhaar129]

I think I could do this! Thanks for making it look manageable.

[@sandrat8238]

Thank you so much for the brilliant tutorial. Your quilt will be lovely when it's finished. Thank you again x

[@stitchwithrachel]

Thank you! 😊

[@whatmandymadenext8120]

Love how this quilt is turning out, thanks for showing how those templates worked 😊

[@stitchwithrachel]

You're welcome Mandy, thank you for watching xx

[@ValShepley-qc4zr]

Thank you for showing us this block Rachel. I've caught the EPP bug, which has lead me into this sort of hand work. It's so soothing. It was amusing when you mentioned your nails - I was just thinking that you looked like a 'normal' person (please don't be offended!) as all the other You Tube tutorials look like they're done by hand models rather than real people. So thank you for that too. Thought this block would be good with my many unused jelly rolls, which I couldn't think of anything different to do with them - so thank you for that too lol.

[@stitchwithrachel]

Aww thank you for such a sweet comment! The EPP bug will stay with you for life, I hope you have lots of fun with your hand sewing. Yes someone else in the comments said that this would be good for jelly rolls, and I agree... if I could convince myself to cut into them xx

[@carolg.6838]

SUBSCRIBED! This is beautiful with the lovely fabrics and stitching. Looks like a calming project and can be taken anywhere and with few supplies. It

[@stitchwithrachel]

Thank you, yeah you can prep the blocks before hand and sew on the go!

[@karenmessinger9609]

I'm excited to find you. I always wanted to try quilting by hand stitching. The brick pattern is gorgeous.

[@annas.r.p.5835]

THESE videos need their own playlist so I can keep track of them

[@gluey27]

I know I am late to the party I have recently started slow stitching and run my cotton thread through the edges of a block of beeswax it strengthens the thread and glides through the material much easier without leaving a residue I watched my mother do it so thought I would try.

[@joybells57]

Simply lovely! Thank you!❤😊

[@Species710]

Beautiful. I envy people who have patience like this. Wonderful.

[@marinamorales707]

This was such a GREAT tutorial!! Thank you!!

[@nanettejernigan7338]

Rachel, new subscriber here from Jacksonville, Florida. Thank you so much for such a detailed video for this session of hand sewing. Your work is so lovely and your fabrics are gorgeous - can’t wait to try this!

[@patriciamoffitt9543]

I use to attend the Quilt Fest in Jacksonville yearly until 4 years ago when I moved out of State.

[@hazelem1266]

This is a great project when travelling.

[@fishgarden7784]

Amazing! I love the idea of these templates-I've not seen ones like this before! Brickwork is one of my favorite patterns, it looks so fancy and yet simple; the best of both worlds :)

[@stitchwithrachel]

And it doesn't waste alot of fabric!

[@Violetmoonandmoss]

Historically, that was called a flat fell stitch, I believe, and was often used to hand stitch clothing (modern blind-hem stitching is based on that). I usually secure my flat fell stitched with a knotted backstitch. Your stitches are beautifully neat and I love the colors of your quilt!

[@IsabellaLouiseAlexandra]

Love this. I'm completely new to this. Really happy to find you. I'm from the UK and find so many channels from the US and am so happy to find you from here. You know you can get the products easily too. Thank you x

[@stitchwithrachel]

Welcome aboard!

[@dia9491]

This is beautiful. I really enjoy hand sewing and I’ve been working on a lap quilt. I wish I’d have tried this quilting as you go. I think it’s a lovely idea.

[@marionmathews9852]

I totally love this idea. Your quilt will be stunning!

[@Jaderosefox]

That's adorable! I'm seriously thinking of trying this as a crazy quilt. (Mostly because I can't hand sew a straight or even line for love or money. Lol) I mostly do beadwork and crochet but am always looking for low key/low stress ways to add to my skill set. Thanks for introducing me to this! Peace and Grooviness!

[@patriciaallen3138]

This was a wonderful tutorial. Thank you.

[@wandawalker4191]

Lovely tutorial! Thank you!

[@TheHawkeyeQuilter]

Perfect! Can't wait to use my Tula Pink fabrics for this project; perfect for a jelly roll that is so hard to cut up randomly without waste with traditionally-pieced jelly roll pattern. Thanks for this great tutorial! Will check out your other videos.

[@stitchwithrachel]

You're welcome, I hadn't consider jelly rolls but yes they would be perfect and there would be no waste at all!

[@meatdog]

FYI: I do what Kate at the Last Homely House dies when hand quilting abd run my theead across beeswax to keep it strong, it will not split and will not break as easily. Thanks for this tutorial. ❤

[@TraceyWarneke]

That's how you strengthen cotton thread. If you use a polyester thread wax shouldn't be necessary. I don't use polyester as I have seen when you use 100% cotton fabric, polyester thread is stronger than the weave of the cotton fabric. That can cause the cotton fabrics to split and tear. Many years of washing and wear before that happens. It depends if you expect your quilts to be heirlooms.

[@AussieCrimeCases]

@@TraceyWarneke Im pretty sure she is just adding to the conversation, the different threads were already said. It's actually a tip I forgot and bought polyester after watching this the first time, and now kicking myself because I have the same colour cotton and beeswax here.

[@izsoirie7567]

​@@TraceyWarnekethnx for the tip regarding polyester thread x cotton fabric

[@deniseh8932]

very pretty fabric

[@birdlady8147]

I would use glue sticks to glue the center and the edges because I would be afraid the fabric would slip with the pins. Love your tutorial.

[@karenh789]

I have done this technique with a hexagon template but I really like the look of the rectangles! Thanks for sharing.😊

[@fionablundell7630]

Great tutorial. I can't wait to start another project😊

[@helentew6393]

Love your quilting, I'm loving your work. Thank you for your wonderful video s

[@shaffycat]

Omg this is a stunning project and something I'm now going to add to my quilting "must do" products Cant wait to see the finished quilt 😊

[@suzisaintjames]

Have you considered glue basting. It would totally avoid fabric slipping. 💖🌞🌵😷

[@melanieklingensmith7084]

Hi Rachel! I'm so excited after buying from Missouri Quilt (with your code)! You've inspired me to start my own project. This is perfect for me and with all the great fabric I have, I'll have so much fun putting all the patterns and colors together. I bought a cream jelly roll for the border color. I thought that might work well. So, thank you so much for creating this video! I really needed something to soothe my anxiety and some therapeutic busy-work to fill my spare time. Thank you from Savannah, Georgia - USA❤

[@patreed235]
