[@virginiatinoco5705]

What great instructions!! I made a practice block and was surprised at his simple it was! You’re a great teacher Claudia!! Question; now I want to try it with a 31/2-4” center square…. How big would my strips be to make a 12” finished block? Could you help me? Or direct me how to find out?? Great job!

[@beanixdorf6977]

Yes you make this so easy, thank you

I love it❣❣❣ I love it❣❣❣ I love it❣❣❣

[@christinestraub1994]

Nicely taught thank you!

[@suebean3873]

I Made a mistake the other day while cutting the 16 inch strips. Somehow, I made one cut then for some reason, I cut the other 8” bunch opposite what I should have, and then my 4 pieces did NOT work together on that same block. I had to make another block cut it differently, and then two of those worked with the first ones. I see now that I must have cut it diagonally but at a different angle. Love it though. Makes a cute quilt. I will use sashing in between the blocks. Thank you for a great pattern, certainly simpler than my last quilt,lol.

[@lauriedupre3657]

I think your machine need cleaning and oiling. Happy to watching this video.

[@jodybartilson7980]

I love the square thank you for

[@bernadettemauranne4898]

Merci c'est si facile comme cela.

[@barbarastefani254]

Your video is a big help thank you

[@patchworkwithclaudia9342]

You are very welcome!

[@melvajeffries2299]

Love this block. Just found your channel and love the way you teach. If I wanted to use 2 and 1/2 strips what would the measurement for center block be

[@melodyschlegel6393]

I would like to know the answer to this too.

[@jsrt10]

Any instructions written down as far as measurements, size of finished block, etc?

[@DawnWalton-ct9gj]

An excellent demonstration! Can you tell me measurement of the strips if I wanted to increase the size of the square to 4 1/2 inches (4 inches finished)?

[@sharonlalli1414]

What is final size of block? It is very beautiful.

[@suebean3873]

8.5” unfinished

[@suebean3873]

The only thing I would say here is that one has to watch when you’re sewing to not stretch the ends out, as they are cut on the bias, but otherwise, so nice.

[@patchworkwithclaudia9342]

You are right. Thanks for your comment.

[@suebean3873]

@@patchworkwithclaudia9342it’s beautiful though, looks so elegant. Great job on this one.

[@dianam.9554]

If I wanted to make the block bigger (10" block) what would be the measurements ? How long would the strips be and would the center still be 2 1/2" block ?

[@suebean3873]

Claudia, can you confirm that you’re cutting each 8” section from bottom right to top left please? I think that’s what I see but want to make sure. I know I did it wrong last time and could only use 2 of the 4 sections. I think I learned my lesson, lol.

[@dianam.9554]

Hi Claudia, Just wondering , if I wanted to make more blocks, to make a quilt, how do you quilt the blocks for a quilt ?

[@sharongardner9044]

How big is this block?

[@patchworkwithclaudia9342]

It is 8.5 inches.

[@sharongardner9044]

I am trying to find one that is about 6” or 6.5”

[@suebean3873]

@@sharongardner9044Maybe if you only sew 4 strips, it might do it for you and then just cut it down to the size required.
