[@roxannaweaver2155]

Well, holey sheets, Batman! Why didn't anyone tell me about this method 8 years ago when I made quilts for my sons and their ladies for Christmas????? I never quilted before then and I swore I was never going to again because it was so knit-picky and tiresome work. THIS, this I can do for lap blankets for all the old ladies in my life who are showing their age. I'ma saving this. Thanks for popping up in my YT feed today.

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Yay!!

[@ginagreene4876]

Exactly!! Wow.

[@rubymoreno6090]

I can’t thank you enough for showing me how to make a quilt. I made my mom a Mother’s Day quilt she has Alzheimer’s. I made it with all different color purples and in the middle I put a button she absolutely loved it. My husband was so impressed I told him I surprised myself. This was the first time I ever made a quilt now I’m hooked. I’m making a breast cancer quilt for my mom. She’s a cancer survivor I thank you once again❤.

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Yay! I’m so excited for you! Isn’t it fun?! I’m glad she loved it! Great job!!

[@luzrocha8871]

🤗🤗🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@annshepard795]

I'm thinking about what you could do with the pieces cut from the 10 inch block that are wasted when you don't cut strips that you can use for several other projects!! Otherwise great way to teach a beginner to make that particular block!!!!!

[@apalach4862]

I have a zillion charm squares, so I tried this with a 5" and a 2.5" square. I also put a 2.5" square of batting under the small square. It worked! I think I have the beginning of a trapunto quilt!! I have a bunch of things I should be doing, but it has turned into a quilty play day. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Awesome!!

[@kathrynbarker7967]

I have a ton as well, thanks for the idea!

[@gill5733]

I love this idea!

[@rebeccasorensen7925]

Love the idea with the batting. That would be cute with the center piece fancy cut maybe as an I spy quilt. Thanks for the idea.

[@kathiglomb9490]

That is an awesome idea. I love the look of Trupunto quilting. You could even go one step further and make it a QAYG quilt.

[@stormynightztx]

p.s. and I'm so glad you said something about all squares not being exactly the same size after sewing! This never gets addressed and it always makes me so frustrated like I'm doing something wrong!

[@stephaniecampbellweitzman3591]

I have made several quilts this way but used a bit smaller square, 4" or even 3.5" and placed it in random places, not in the middle and it looks GREAT and adds some interest

[@teresalevingston6390]

Would love to see a picture

[@helenjackson920]

Love how you sewed these blocks without all of that cutting. Will definitely give this a try.

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Have fun!

[@juliekoone3569]

I’m teaching a nine year old to sew, she watched your video then with my watchful eye she is doing it! Thanks for a great video.

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

That is awesome!

[@rutheglin-pugh2320]

Your explanation and demonstration was so clear, no nonsense and helpful. Very reassuring for beginner quilters. Thank you.

[@dianeboudreaux8201]

Love your demonstration. Clear & well executed

[@sallycisler7819]

What??! Why did I never think of this? Thank you for sharing a new-to-me method to make a quilt top. Certainly faster than cutting all the pieces and sewing them back together.

[@rise2824]

The last time I tried to sew over pins, my needle hit a pin & broke. The only thing that saved my eye was my glasses. I have never sewed over another pin 📍 since.

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Wow! I don’t blame you! I know some people do sew over them but the minute I would try I would break a needle or something like that would happen so I don’t take the risk. 😳

[@SparkyOne549]

Same thing for me, I accidentally sewed on one, not seeing it, scared the crap out of me, and just missed my face.

[@nancy9478]

Sewing over pins can knock out the timing on your machine. I never do that. I used to, and also had the needle break and go flying!

[@elizabethprocter1031]

You should NEVER see over pins. It's like shrapnel flying and I've witnessed someone nearly losing their sight having done this.

[@rayhamilton9202]

I sewed over a pin once when using my embroidery machine. Not only did it break the needle and nearly put my eye out but it broke something in the machine itself and had to leave it in for an expensive repair.

[@sandyhearth8249]

This is BRILLIANT!! It opens up a whole new world of possibilities! 🥰

[@melissarey2973]

It works great if you have a panel with a lot of small boxes or different shaped and oriented boxes. Think of an animal panel that includes a giraffe and an alligator - vertical rectangle, horizontal rectangle - and undoubtedly squares for other animals.

[@erikajaskela4307]

I've been wanting to learn to quilt for a long time and then I found this!! I think I can do it now! I'm so excited!!!

[@lindasanchez-m4s]

do it!!!!

[@lyndasmith3478]

I absolutely love this new to me method! Less cutting, more sewing = more fun! Thank you for sharing 🎉

[@nancych7081]

You make this look so easy!! Thank you for explaining the process so clearly, and thank you for explaining what a layer cake is. I'm definitely going to try this. You had so many helpful tips, like using your smallest quilt block and then making all of the blocks that same size. And I love how quickly and easily you added the sashing between the inside blocks. Brilliant! You made a very classy looking quilt...and you did the quilt top in only 4 or 5 hours, Wow! Whoever gets that quilt is lucky. Thanks again for sharing this.

[@jenihansen7201]

I wish someone would have told us about this years ago. This is great. Thank you , thank you.

[@rebeccajourney3183]

Wow, I love this technique. I have never quilted but this makes me feel like I can at 68+. Thank you❤

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

You can do it!

[@UtahGmaw99]

You and me (70+) both!

[@lindagliott5838]

I started at 60 and now I’m 76. I am not great at it but small imperfections reminds me that it is homemade according to my husband. You can do it and once you make your first one you will fall in love with quilting. I also tie my quilts. Just go for it

[@martywallace5848]

I tie all my quilts. It makes me feel that I have put a real touch of old time quilting to a new style.

[@sewquilty357]

I saw this today and I couldn’t wait to try it out .Ii have a brand new great grandson he’s 5 days old and I have this fabric with sailboats on it and had all my 5inch blocks cut ready to sew and I switched gears and making this square in a square it is so much fun I haven’t been quilting very long but I am hooked Thank you for this block pattern and you explained it so perfectly ❤

[@katywhite241]

I love making simple quilt blocks; I don’t have the patience or attention span to do anything tedious. I can’t wait to make them.

[@mariannanfuso5060]

I’ve been quilting for almost 50yrs and have made lots of square in square quilts. This is a phenomenal way of approaching it. Now I’m about to rip thru my stash to look for that layer cake pack 😮I know I have somewhere.

[@margaretWestminster]

I am so glad I found you and your wonderful instructions. I never thought of this easy way and it looks beautiful. The choice of fabric pattern is beautiful. Thank you very much. Also you get right into the excellent instructions and no annoying music and sill chit chat that a lot of people do thank you again ❤

[@jacksdelighth520]

I agree. Clear plain instruction and good videography can’t be beat.

[@judyindorf6522]

What a perfect idea to use to teach kids about quilts :). No cutting :). It you have several 9 and 10 year olds with rotary cutters it's a scary thing. Plus they can see their quilt taking shape in a short amount of time. And can leave an hour lesson with beautiful results! Great idea! Thanks :) :) :)

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Great idea!

[@amystreasuresdesign]

I'm watching this with my 86 year-old mom who has been sewing for over 60 years. She has sewn many quilts over the years, they're all smaller pieces sewn together. She was amazed when she saw the final results of the first block, we both thought it was all pieces, not a small block sewn on top of a big block. This is so easy I might give it a try when I finally get around to trying my hand at sewing. I do want to do it some day, I just don't have the time for it. But a project like this might be what I need. This and other quick and easy projects I've seen on youtube.

[@lindajennings275]

I love this quilt! I belong to a quild and we make a lot of quilts for donations. I'm going to show our leader

[@petmomful2260]

This would be a great quilt for donations! If the fabric is pretty, the quilt will be pretty! Even a newbie could do it. I am definitely going to try it!

[@cecilegoddard9435]

Saw this the other day, and sat down and made a square with leftover fabrics. Love the finished and neat squares. Starting a new project as I send this. Thanks for the easy pattern. 😊

Very new to quilting but your concise tutorial gives me confidence to try this. Thank you x

Making my grandson a quilt with lots of fabrics in video games and favorite cartoons. Using this method made such a cool use of two of the fabrics at a time and endless variations to make SUCH A COOL AND DIFFERENT quilt!!! SO HAPPY I found this video!!! THANKYOU ever so much!!! SO EASY!!!

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Wonderful! I’m sure he will love it! This method is so quick and easy. I love it!!

[@sueglendinning4059]

Thank you for sharing. I tried this method for a baby quilt as I had some 10 layer cake squares left from another project. Fabric, wadding and backing selected, the process from start to finish, including binding, took 6.5 hours, for a beautiful quilt to emerge. I will definitely use this method again.😊

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Wonderful! I loved how fast and easy it was too!!

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Wonderful!

[@upriver7047]

I've been cutting my scraps into specific sized squares for years. I have fabric tubs full of them. You could use this technique with any sized squares where one aquare is twice the size of the other. I could do 1.5" on top of 3". Haha! It would look like it took forever! This is so clever! Thank you for sharing!

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Yes you could! 😁

Thank you for this tip! Was just going to ask that question. I plan to cut squares from my husband’s high end preppy & plaid button downs.

[@brendastajkowski502]

What an amazing way to make a quilt. And eliminates many raw seams. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thank you!

Gorgeous quilt top. I haven't sewed in 35 yrs, but just getting back into it. I love your channel & the way you teach. I remember being taught this technique by my grandmother, sew quick & easy. I look forward to more. Thanks

Thank you so much!

Such a smart method of making square in a square. Saves loads of time and energy from cutting and matching. Thank you.

[@cazrichardson]

Easiest and most consistent 4 parch ever! Thank you

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

For sure!

Beautiful! You could make it bigger with a layer cake and charm pack and you could make “opposite” squares. Thanks for the great ideas!! I’m gonna have to try this one.

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

I thought about doubling the size with another layer cake but hadn’t thought about a charm pack. Good idea

[@katgroeger8986]

This is awesome I have cut 3 layer cakes and corresponding charm packs to go with for the retreat I am attending next weekend. Such an easy block I’m putting them around a panel with black sashing.

@@sewcharmingquiltshop I haven’t started the project that I have in mind yet but this technique will come in very handy! I have very little sewing education or experience & I am absolutely not afraid to wing it with a prayer and willpower to succeed!! Going to be making a memory quilt for my teenager…. Even if it has lots of errors and mistakes, she will love it anyways I know that! 😊

[@sabrinaharris6538]

I love this idea, but I'm thinking you could make a much bigger quilt with a charm pack, and a layer cake, which luckily, I have both, I couldn't decide what to do with either one, now thanks to your wonderful video, I know exactly what I'm going to do with them. Thank You for sharing your time, and your talent with all of us. I also love how nice and neat the back looks.

[@barbarawest1266]

I made a 5 & Dime quilt with this method, only I cut each finished 10” block into 4 5” squares, tossed all the squares together & then randomly pulled them out & sewed back into a large square again. Very pretty scrappy look. And so easy.

[@mariekay2060]

Can you post a photo I am very new to sewers ng This sounds great

Have aquired many yards of fabric over the years for quilts .Have the books ,the tools, batting , watched quilting shows, but never never could decide what block or what fabric to use ? Have made small baby blankets from 2 single pieces of fabric & machine quilted them , freeze every time i think about cutting out blocks , etc !! So nice to see your fabulous video show up in my feed !! I will make some quilts because this is so smart & you make me feel like anyone can do this ,Wonderful teacher that you are !!!

This technique & assembly-line style of sewing is speaking to my garment-maker heart! I am worried about the ghosting from the doubled fabric in the centers, however. That might annoy me, but I think I’ll try this!

[@amiablecrafter]

I was wondering the same thing. Someone else mentioned placing batting between them.

[@candacegregorian]

I agree. Maybe you can cut out the bottom using pinking shears. The square you cut out can be used for another project.

[@sandyhearth8249]

I didn’t think about that but couldn’t you use an iron on stabilizer on the back of the 5 inch square to reduce the ghosting?

Loving the colour combo!

[@diannehenningsgard1692]

I loved your idea/video. I wanted to make a signature quilt for a special wedding. The only thing different I did from yours was: Before sewing the last side of the original block, I inserted a 3 1/2" sq of a (light cardboard/ postcard/ cereal box ) into the center pocket before sewing the last strip side ( from the back) . Then I sewed it closed. I sewed all the blocks the same way.,and finished the quilt top like yours..... I brought the quilt top to the wedding and had the guest sign the center squares ( the cardboard made a solid surface to write on). I also made extra blocks, if more signatures were needed and for absent guests. After I got home, I cut a 1/4" slit with the rotory cutter on one side (the cardboard also helped) to remove the cardboard. I then cut the other 3 sides with scissors, to save the squares for trimming the border. A few of the extra blocks i used on the quilt back. Again THANK YOU for your beautiful block idea ❤❤❤

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

I’ve done some for customers where they get the squares from us and bring them back signed and we make the quilt top. Fun and great heirlooms

That was like one of the best tips ever about sewing the 1/4" seam like that. Brilliant! Do you lay out the squares to decide what looks good next to each other, or do you throw caution to the wind & pick them up randomly? To me, it looks like several reds are together & then several grays are together. It would take me 4 or 5 days or weeks just to lay them out in the right pattern. 😅

Sometimes I plan it and sometimes I don’t. This time I just made sure that each square was made up of different colors. There is no top or bottom to the rows so when I sewed them together, yes some reds and such ended up close. It doesn’t bother me though so since it was sewn together and i liked the look, I left it alone. 😁

I would probably preplan where the blocks go and also make sure that the one way fabrics all go the same way.
