@wisehart49 жыл бұрын
I really think 1/2 inch seams are adequate also and give a nice rag look. That way, you are not taking so much material from the quilt. Those inches add up in the long run. Of course, it's a matter of preference and I also definitely wash my flannel first. This was a very good tutorial! Thanks so much for sharing.

OMG, I've spent hours and hours trying to figure out how much fabric I need to buy. All the mathematical problems (like the math word problems I so hated in school) have my head spinning. I was never good at math, but now I cannot hold onto a thought long enough to process it because Lupus and lack of sleep make it impossible to focus (Lupus brain fog). I had not idea how much math is involved in quilting, but I'm determined to learn how to do it. Thank you ever so much for spelling things out so clearly. A wave of relief washed over me after watching this. I'm subbing right now. THANKS! I just realized I'm commenting under my other account name which has the gamer name my grandson gave me. lol

I am now going to make another one for our Grandson, who, God willing, will be born in July 2020. Thank you again for your excellent instructions.

@lindielee63229 жыл бұрын
I wonder if you can answer a question. I often use "Quilters Flannel" for the back of my quilts because it comes larger withes and it's a much tighter weave, brushed on both sides than Flannelette. Since the quilters flannel is so tight will it fray as much as the inexpensive flannelette?

You can reinforce the stitches by back stitching, but you don't need to if you sew from edge to edge. When you go to sew the rows together, make sure you again are sewing edge to edge in order to sew over the stitches. Sometimes I do reinforce them, and other times I don't.

Because I am using 2 patterns of darker colors (navy), and 2 of a lighter color (gray and white), I am concerned about the darker colors fading on the lighter colors when I wash it at completion to make it fray at the seams. Do you think it will still fray at the seams if I prewash the fabric to set the colors before I cut and assemble it ?

Hello Linda, Yes, this is a tool sold by the notions department at JoAnn's that suctions on to the ruler. It is easier to grab than trying to move the ruler by itself. To tell you honestly, it's the same thing that they sell at Walmart that you can suction on the wall for a shower safety bar. It is probably cheaper at Walmart, in my opinion. It does help if you have problems gripping things or have arthritis. Thanks for viewing my video! I am planning on having more posts soon! Mary Ann

Yes you can put any pattern in the center of the blocks, however ether end your block quilting an inch away from the sides or end the directly in the corner points. You can use a folded piece of paper making a 1" ruler for yourself, butt it against the edge of the fabric to start or end your quilting. Does that make sense?
