Great tutorial full of common sense suggestions. Could you stitch in the ditch to stabilise the backing?

[@abanguhad959]

Fab idea using the baby’s outfits.

[@shelaghrobertson8286]

Brilliant tutorial, thank you so much. I was hoping to find a video which would show how to include fastening and neckline details. I also like the way you planned putting the pieces together in a way pleasing to the eye. I look forward to trying this for my two granddaughters now!

[@HappySpaceCreates]

[@billiestando6689]

Thank you for the inspiring tutorial! Now I’m excited to get started on a memory quilt for my grandson!

[@HappySpaceCreates]

You are so welcome!

[@alexmorse3969]

If you want to stitch in the ditch, I definitely recommend pressing your seams to the side instead of open or else you’ll compromise the integrity of the seams :)

[@bridgetwhite5547]

That's great. It looks amazing. Lucky friend. Thanks 😊

[@whoatemychocolate4222]

I love this idea! What a beautiful quilt!

[@pinsandneedlesx8825]

What interfacing do you use

[@deeanaise7955]

What machine do you have/recommend for beginner quilters?

[@meyassarasamman751]

Thank you for this tutorial, i am new to sewing, so what sewing machine do you recommend that can do the job?

[@janetstevens5997]

How many yards would I need to make this quilt want to make 2 of them for my grandsons. I'm thinking 1 yard of backing for each please let me know would like to make it and gave to my grandsons for Christmas. Thanks

[@jessdriscoll6747]

Love this! I’m totally new to sewing but would love to make a quilt. A lot of my baby grows are newborn/0-3 - could I use a smaller square size?

[@HappySpaceCreates]

You absolutely could use a smaller square but you will need more baby grows in total to make a decent size quilt. I make a template out of old cardboard and lay them out to work our how many squares I will need. I hope this helps and happy sewing! Xx

[@lynnhussey6589]

Loved your tutorial can I ask what wadding you used as your quilt seem to be light and fluffy the wadding I used make my quilt solid and stiff . Many Thanks Lynn

[@HappySpaceCreates]

Hi Lynn the wadding I used is called batting xxx

[@carolwebb9948]

Fantastic! Thank you- now I know how to correct my earlier (failed) attempt. Just wondered- did you use a longer stitch length when sewing through the wadding?

[@HappySpaceCreates]

hey! yes sorry I forgot to mention I lengthen the stitch to accurate the wadding yes. only by maybe two mill.

[@claudiabergamiribeiro4907]

[@Ilul9001]

Sis what paper yo use

[@2301liam]

How long does it take to make a blanket?

[@insqsq4533]

What is the size for the side oblongs, dont think you said in the video?

[@HappySpaceCreates]

Good Evening, its just The Full size squares cut in half along the middle and then sewn into a strip along the short end xx

[@mariemullan4158]

Can u hand sew this

[@HappySpaceCreates]

Hi Marie, You could hand sew this, but the project would take you much longer. but you can adjust the size if your looking for a smaller project x

[@ashleymartinez2131]

What is the measurements for the edges

[@HappySpaceCreates]

hiya the edges are just half sizes of the big squares x

[@ashleymartinez2131]

Thank you

[@suzannemortimer9752]

Do you not stitch in ditch all over the quilt right through to the backing?

[@HappySpaceCreates]

Hiya, I personally just stitch in the ditch over the front and the wadding on this size quilt as I like to keep the backing smooth I feel like it keeps it more snuggly. if the quilt was very large I would do so on the outer edging pieces so it still looks decorative at the back as well. that is my personal preference although everyone might do it differently xx

[@katysimard8397]

The quilting should respect the type you use, if the one you use says it must not be more then 5 inches apart do stitch each 5 inches otherwise with time it will tear in between the layers

[@breewaters4717]

I accidentally got lightweight interfacing instead of medium would that be okay?

[@HappySpaceCreates]

That will be absolutely fine. Happy sewing! Xx
