Thanks!

[@revelationquilts]

It’s my pleasure! Many thanks for the super-chat!🥰

[@diannenaworensky6698]

Love the pattern that looks more like a flower. Thanks for showing us !!!!!!

[@revelationquilts]

You're welcome! I'm glad you like it.

[@kirbymallak]

I'm so excited to see this! I am trying a "no buy" 2025 and have been watching all your videos. You have given me enough ideas and inspiration to help me stay on track! I'm going to tell my husband, "Don't worry, Suze has me covered for patterns and inspiration" Thanks for ANOTHER awesome idea and wish you all the best in the coming year ❤

[@revelationquilts]

Thanks, I am excited about the new year too! I got you, Sis!

[@carlaatkins2619]

I did a no buy 2024. The only fabric I bought was a 108" backing to coordinate my grandsons queen size I did from Kaffe fabric I had. Good luck.

[@carlaatkins2619]

Totally clever block. I think I'll try it using complementary colors on the color wheel. I need a good challenge quilt for 2025. Thank you. 🎶💐💖🫂

[@revelationquilts]

That sounds like a great challenge!

[@suzannemiller993]

What a unique but easy block! Thank you!

[@revelationquilts]

You are so welcome!🤗

[@Flash-sr8hm]

Absolutely brilliant. I'd have gone with the Celtic look layout, but they were all gorgeous. Thank you so much.

[@revelationquilts]

Thanks for watching and I am glad you enjoyed it!

[@lolagonzales1285]

I love this quilt

[@margaretpodlich8098]

great design, looks fun! Thanks for the easy instructions!

[@revelationquilts]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@AmyLouiseDens]

It's always a good thing to break out of our comfort zones in quilting and challenge ourselves to go beyond the usual. Another bold and beautiful quilt!

[@revelationquilts]

Thanks for watching and I love how you said it!

[@thomasinaennis4862]

One of my favorite designs

[@revelationquilts]

You’re going to love making it!

[@nancymathisen9707]

Looks great. Very effective design with that fabric.

[@revelationquilts]

Thanks! That fabric is really eye-catching!

[@Cassandra-..-]

Love it! Thanks for explaining the block construction so clearly. 🎉

[@revelationquilts]

I am so glad you found it helpful!

[@cathyblood6864]

Ooh I love this! So eye catching and it's always fun to see how many options you consider before settling in a layout. Have you ever tried those shimmery cottons from Joann's? They say "Do not iron" but guess what! I disregarded that and found the fabric is totally iron-able and easy to work with. It is naturally crisp like it has been starched. It may not be as fancy as the Kona sheen but since you aren't a fabric snob either you'd like it.

[@revelationquilts]

I have not tried the ones from JoAnn's. I'll have to look into it.

[@angieallen4884]

Fascinating pattern and you chose the perfect fabric for it. Added to my "layer cake" board. Thanks!

[@revelationquilts]

You are going to love making it!

[@Wild1_ValerieG]

I would have made setting triangles for the corners and sides where you use partial blocks, I would have used a solid for the setting triangles that plays well with the rest of the blocks. I do like the idea of the 'compass' blocks

[@chardonnay4360]

Wow, that fabric is amazing, almost looks like plastic! You did a great job with the quilt, glad you decided to do it on point, definitely the best choice. Hello from Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺 👋🏻

[@revelationquilts]

Thanks so much, I'm glad you liked it!

[@Angelicus-p5p]

The only suggestion I've seen for working with bias edges/on point is to iron a strip of freezer paper along the bias edge so it works similar to stay-stitching. It's faster and you can peel it away. Then it's stable while adding your border. Karen Brown had lots of suggestions for using freezer paper on a video. (Just Get It Done Quilts). That's a great looking quilt! Thank you.

[@revelationquilts]

That is a great tip - thanks for sharing!

[@alexandrawellington8028]

A truly clever and interesting block!!!!!!!!!!

[@lauralovestoquilt]

Love this pattern and glad your video showed up for me today!❤

[@revelationquilts]

I'm so glad you liked it!

[@kathidavis2442]

Hi, I like this layout and this fabric is awesome. Thank you for this tutorial.

[@revelationquilts]

Thanks, I really love this fabric too!

[@thanaecooper9836]

Love this. So fresh and new! Thank you for posting😊

[@revelationquilts]

I'm glad you think so!

[@linda5278]

Groovy fabric!

[@leben54]

Thanks, my kind of block, quick easy and a great effect!

[@revelationquilts]

Glad you like it!

[@melril32000]

Your ideas are always so creative! I love the Celtic cross look💕

[@revelationquilts]

I am so glad you like it!

[@stephaniewalker1040]

So striking..I see this being a favorite..thanks

[@revelationquilts]

I'm so glad you like it!

[@laureneberhard9456]

Great quilt! Thanks for making the video and how well you show and describe the process. Love that fabric. Wonder if the shine will wash away after it is laundered.

[@revelationquilts]

Good question! I don't think it will, otherwise I'll have a glitter bomb in my laundry machines.

[@PeterSchapel-ge3tq]

❤ awesome! On the to do list!

[@revelationquilts]

You’re going to love it!

[@renestovall9226]

So cool! This is fabric reminds me of pleather. Happy New Year🎉

[@revelationquilts]

I know, right? It's so unique!

[@delwyngraham4033]

Thanks looks good, I made a temperature quilt 2024 I ran out of minimum temperature as I did maximum temp petals on four inch minimum square backgrounds still waiting on a bit of fabric for 4 petals🙃

[@revelationquilts]

I hope you get your fabric soon!

[@bethgoodwin9493]

Hi, interesting block, I have not done a quilt on point yet. Where did you get the small yellow triangle ruler ? Thanks for your quilts,

[@revelationquilts]

I got it from Missouri Star.

[@bethgoodwin9493]

@revelationquilts , awesome, thank you

[@cathyblood6864]

By the way, do you have a blog post that explains the benefits and perks of your revelation quilts guild/club? Sounds fun but I need more info.

[@revelationquilts]

I don't have a blog. In the FB Revelation Quilts Guild, we share our projects, have monthly challenges with prizes, etc. It's a positive quilting community where we lift each other up. It's free to join, so if you don't like it you can choose to leave without any loss.

[@katehenry2718]

This would be so much prettier in matte finish cloth. Shiney is just creepy on a bed.

[@revelationquilts]

Well, it's a good thing it won't be going on a bed. It takes on a whole new dimension when it's quilted.

[@karenwerts2331]

[@tammydugas9527]

I thought when you put quilts on point, your edge pieces had to be slightly larger, no?

[@revelationquilts]

That is the way many show it, but I had zero issues with everything coming out even. I didn't even have to square things up before putting on my borders.

[@modevine6756]

Love the pattern, hate the fabric.
