Scrappy QAYG Log Cabin Quilt Block - Tips and Tricks for Visible Quilting Lines

[@shirleythomas6377]

Love the cow face. No music vote for me. Silence is golden, unless you are talking, then you are golden. I like straight or WONKY blocks.

[@elena911000]

You created a little piece of art. Love it!!! Thank you so much for give us the tips and tricks, I am a beginner so it is so helpful for me. By the way, I love the videos without music. 💕Thanks a Lot!!!💕

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thank you Elena. I try to give tips and tricks for beginners is they can have success on their projects. It’s a hard bake me between not talking too much and sharing the tips and tricks 😉. I’m very happy to keep this channel music free as much as possible.

[@wilycat5290]

Wonkify.....now there's a technical quilting term 😂. Nice tips. Prefer no music....it's almost always too loud. Thank you for the video 😊👍💕

[@cherylbrown4058]

Love the matchstick quilting. And for short fast forward no music is fine. And wonky makes it fun!

[@harperreads]

Hey Robin! Scrappy and wonky are wonderful concepts in quilting! I hope you have a great weekend!

[@lesa6399]

Oh my! I am one of the windiest, ever! 🤣 anxious to see more!

[@heatherbuechelartistry]

When the notification came up that you had a new video, it made me smile, I enjoy your videos, thank you.

[@annataylor7226]

I love wonky for some things and not wonky for others. I am happy with silence or sounds. Whatever you choose is great. ❤

[@lindaprice9242]

Loved watching you put the Log Cabin block together. The Log Cabin block is my favorite no music for me would be fine I wouldn't miss it at all. I pay more attention to your sewing in fast mode than I do listening to music

[@dlines182]

I enjoy your method of quilt as you. I'm making walker bag. This close quilt will give the stability I want. Thank you much.. I will be following. 😊

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thank you so much. I use similar quilting for my tote for the same reason. It makes It feel sturdier and the bags hold their shape nicely. Happy Sewing!!

[@karenhornberger7236]

Nice tutorial. The white fabric with different colored threads sounds like a great idea. Wonky would be great, too. I’m thinking of doing a rectangular piece and making a basket like you showed us earlier this year. As for me, I’d rather just have you chatting with the sewing even the speeded up sewing. No music.

[@lauraruthruff4741]

I really like the look of this block. Your mat will look great!! Even if it turns out a little wonky.. The end result still looks great!! ☺ thanks Robin!!

[@helenlenhart8425]

I love the wonky look it says Robin was here!!!

[@bevcote2357]

I have never sewn a lcb before. I really like you qayg method. I’m definitely going to try this. Music, quiet, or speedy sewing sounds it’s all good. Blessings.

[@leslieg1892]

As always...another great video! I love it when you add your version of 'wonkitudity' to a project. I would rather hear you talking than music or silence during the speed sewing sections. After all, that's what most of us love about you.😊

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thanks Leslie. Majority vote is for more chitter chatter. 🦩

[@karenemerton5128]

Thank you, Robin, for a well done tutorial. I enjoyed it.

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thank you so much. 🦩

[@catherinelittle2118]

I have never made a wonky block but it sounds fun to try. I appreciate your time and effort in showing us how you do the quilt along blocks. I love the log cabin one but my favourite so far is the hexagon one. I am looking forward to the strip block next. Thanks Robin.

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thanks Catherine. I like the hexagon log cabin too. 🌴

[@sally-fw7ww]

Thank you for this video - lots of good information, and really helpful to see the difference in drape of the 2 different blocks. Prefer no music to videos.

[@rsislandcrafts]

Glad it was helpful!

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

Such pretty quilt blocks. Thank you for sharing!

[@paulawyatt3872]

Sometimes, wonky is the only way to be! Have a good weekend!

[@rsislandcrafts]

Yes! Wonky all the way. I hope your weekend is nice too.

[@tonistevens2253]

Fun to see the difference between heavy quilting versus only QAYG.side by side. Wonky is fun too!

[@rsislandcrafts]

It is fun to see different options. Making smaller blocks allows us to try different things to see what we like and don’t really care for. #teamwonky

[@sallynoel3563]

I love wonky blocks! Very freeing! No music pls. I prefer your voiceover. Have a wonderful Memorial day 💖

[@darlenemitchell4198]

Nice work

[@roseannegibson3343]

Really nice

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thank you!

[@hume6900]

Wonky blocks go well with a wonky personality like mine, Robin, and I wouldn’t have it any other way, lol 🙂! Btw another great video.

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thank you Marion. I started out going wonky because I just couldn’t get my blocks to be “the correct “ way but then I fell in love with the wonky. 🌻

[@beverleysimmons8080]

I love doing those log cabins but mine doesn’t always come out good lol i haven’t really been back to sewing since mom passed away not sure why but i do miss sewing more knitting now hoping to get back into sewing need to clean up the mess. Cold out here windy only 5 degrees Celsius lol that is Newfoundland for you have a great weekend

[@elizabethsawyer5906]

I love the visible quilting which wasn’t wonky at all! I have never made a log cabin block yet but always wanted to. Thank you Robin💕 music would be nice😀

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thank you. I’m not sure I’ve ever made a “proper” log cabin block but I’ve had lots of fun making my version.

[@DeviSisk]

Wonky is my favorite quilting style. Most any pattern winds up in my signature wonky style and I'm not mad at it. I did some paper piecing log cabin and hexi blocks and they are Devi wonky.

[@lynnebaldwin4305]

Life can be a little more interesting if there is some wonky along the way = Thank you Robin

[@rsislandcrafts]

Exactly. 🌻

[@lisamarieesposito4842]

Personally...I love music!!! Wonky or not...I like the one that is quilted as you go. My machine doesn’t cut the threads...but I would like to try that method...and just cut them as I go. So many projects to try!!!

[@lesleygilbert1945]

My favourite colour blue - good start for a tutorial. I liked your nice straight sewing lines. I would do mine how you explained to Kathy T. I don't mind some music but think I'd prefer your 'voiceover'. I hate video's where they speed up and play music for 3 seconds - I think 'why bother'? When I first started playing games on FB 2008, I had a pet penguin on Haikoo Zoo called *Wonky* who I could dress-up. Would you believe I made a photo album of his adventures, which you can find at the bottom of my album list haha - true story :) (I just had a quick peek to remind me of that time) lol

[@rsislandcrafts]

I completely agree. I changed the way I did the quilting in this week’s Patreon video.

[@jannmier3487]

How would you join the blocks and finish it if you want to make a quilt?

[@rsislandcrafts]

At the end of this little series I will be sewing my QAYG blocks together to make a little mat for under my sewing machine. There are a few ways to sew QAYG blocks together. I’m going to use the super simple method of sewing them together as if they were standard blocks. I’ll add the backing and attach them together with a couple simple straight lines of quilting. But I’ll show all of that later in June.

[@lindapepper8511]

Please. No music❗Thank you for your videos.

[@rsislandcrafts]

No worries. I won’t use music for my videos.

[@aliciavalcarce8633]

Love the blues, I mean your fabrics, not "Blues" as in music. I prefer your chatting. No music.

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thank you Alicia. 💙

[@jannettestetson-buck5103]

No music.please .. Your explanations and ideas are way better to hear.

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thank you

[@theresabecerra6565]

Wonky is one of the best

[@rsislandcrafts]

💜

[@DeviSisk]

No music it always seems to wind up a different volume than the talking.

[@rsislandcrafts]

That drives me crazy. I may do a short test run to see how It sounds. Then we’ll go by majority rules. Which will probably be no music and that’s fine. I’m sure I can find something to talk about and do a voice over 😉

[@kathytincler2446]

I tried one of those once and quit not even half way through. Without a thread cutter it is a tedious pain....no joy in the making. Tfs :)

[@rsislandcrafts]

The thread cutter is a game changer. Making a small piece for a zipper pouch isn’t too bad but anything larger and it’s annoying without the auto thread cutter. If we don’t enjoy the process there’s no point in making the project. Instead of cutting at the end of each row of stitches you could turn the fabric with the needle down, raise the needle and presser foot, then sew the next row. I ended up doing that on the project that I stitched with my Patrons. It was easier to sew that way instead of constantly cutting the thread. Saves a bit on the thread too.

[@KimberlySmith-pc7lj]

Music is nice yes please

[@moiratroop4129]

wonky music plz

[@SusanJGP]

No music, please, Thank you, Robin.

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thanks Susan. I won’t be using music for my main videos.

[@mrslsanderson]

I like wonky.

[@rsislandcrafts]

Me too 😉🦩

[@jeanettebeccau458]

Noooooo music i hate music in videos pleace❤️hugs from Jeanette in Sweden

[@leorajs]

No music is good.

[@sonniecampbell1788]

I also vote no music. I’d rather hear your sewing machine noise even if it’s an exaggeratedly (is that a wonky word? Ha!) fast sound.

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thanks. I like the sped up, volume down sound of the sewing machine. 🤣

[@lorrainewilliams7896]

I am a woman. If you want me to watch your video, do not call me a "guy".

[@rsislandcrafts]

My apologies. I have recently changed how I address the group.

[@KW3908]

Prefer no music

[@rsislandcrafts]

Thanks! I agree. In recent videos I found a way around the need for music.

[@AnitaSouthall]

Not interested in added music.
