Malvern Quilt Show Haul 2023

[@barbarameikle8265]

I have just discovered you you tube videos and I love them. I have a quilt shop Quilted Angel in Petaluma, Ca. I loved your sew vacation. What fun and the countryside is so beautiful. If you ever come my way please stop in for a visit. Barbara😊

[@Fenger53]

Love your channel Rachel and your talent and enthusiasm, I have the little pins and they are good! Kind regards Ilona

[@samanthanott6630]

I was thinking of a temperature quilt, then saw your video, so yes definitely take part 😊 Facebook page would be awesome to see the quilts members are making for the sew along

[@stitchwithrachel]

A facebook page is a really good idea because then we can all chat and share photos really easily. Good idea!

[@maureenmcgreevy3866]

Great haul.😊

[@jolewis-brown6608]

I’ve made a quilt with a bundle of Kim’s Worn and Washed fabrics. It was the first one I made and I’m so proud of the quilt even though it has many imperfections. Kim has a delightful little book, recently published.

[@stitchwithrachel]

I can't wait to start mine ❤️

[@kara1084]

Lovely haul! The Worn and Washed was especially interesting I thought! I haven’t seen something like that before. Ruby Star Society is one of my favorites. It just feels so good and I love it for hand sewing. Those Bohin long appliqué size 10 are one of my favorite hand sewing needles ever. I use them for both EPP and hand piecing. I like my Sue Daley size 11 milliners a little bit more but they are a lot more expensive and not as easy to find.

[@alisonpistorius7949]

Love your videos so relaxing and inspiring 😁😁 definitely keen to try a temperature quilt as a sew along 😁😁

[@stitchwithrachel]

You should!

[@dweb9409]

Love the appliqué project. It is so cute. I am scared to even think about trying appliqué. Oh well. Love yours.

[@stitchwithrachel]

Applique is sooo easy if you use bondaweb, there's so many different methods out there that it is overwhelming at first but it is easy and fun 💖

[@PeaChips]

Love the haul of fabrics you have there. I find it so hard to rein myself in when looking at fabrics to buy, sigh! So many different tangents you can go on! Id be keen to try the temperature quilting project. 👍

[@stitchwithrachel]

I find it impossible to keep myself under control at these shows!

[@alexandra-zaza-burns]

You got some really pretty fabrics. It’s difficult to not get carried away at quilt shows, there’s just too many pretty things.

[@stitchwithrachel]

so easy to get carried away!

[@Auntie7024]

Love all your purchases Rachel. Thank you for sharing. ❤😊

[@ValShepley-qc4zr]

Thank you for posting your finds. What a wonderful haul - you'll have a lot of fun with them.

[@stitchwithrachel]

Thanks for watching!

[@dianawilson9326]

For appliqué I love to use glue instead of pins. Sue Daley makes a good one, just tiny dots away from the folded edge holds beautifully and no pins at all! Try it! I am a 30’s reproduction fan, too. I’m currently working on a traditional Grandmothers Glower Garden and I am trying to make each hexi flower in a different fabric. No repeats.

[@stitchwithrachel]

Great tip! I bet your grandmothers flower garden quilt is just amazing!

[@beverlyperry5343]

Temperature quilt sounds like a fun sew along-I'm in😊

[@stitchwithrachel]

excellent! I'll be posting a few videos on this in November x

[@lorishealinghomestead5047]

[@stitchwithrachel]

YAY! how exciting, I'll come up with a few variations and do a video at some point in November

[@linda4389]

The temperature quilt would be fun. I'm in.

[@stitchwithrachel]

Welcome aboard

[@juliedollin2750]

Very interested

[@brendaromanuck1280]

So much fun to see what you bought. Love your fabrics and your applique flower with the clamshells blew me away. When you show your fabrics, I find myself pretending to have bought them too... that way it is easy on my pocketbook! haha

[@johnniekuykendall2696]

Thanks for sharing your quilt show purchases. Lovely fabrics!

[@stitchwithrachel]

Thanks for watching!

[@judyzeigler3980]

Thank you for sharing. Love your haul. I love your videos. 😊

[@vanniceabigelow6074]

I would love to join you in making a temperature quilt! I have been wanting to make one but need the inspiration!!!

[@stitchwithrachel]

Awesome!!

[@rebeccasloan3605]

I would love to hear and see your temperature quilt ideas! Very much enjoying your videos and tutorials.

[@jacquelineknox1977]

What a wonderful collection of goodies you bought at the show. I love all the fabrics. Although I haven't finished my other projects, a temperature quilt sounds so interesting. I began a crocheted temperature blanket a few years ago and it has remained unfinished. 🙃 xx

[@stitchwithrachel]

Who said anything about finishing other projects first? lol! Ive never attempted a crochet one but have always fancied one xx

[@jojomontgomery7119]

I would love to see your idea for a temperature quilt. I have made a few of them in the past. Lived seeing your purchases. I really like the "reclaimed " fabric. Take care.😊

[@angelashirtcliffe9290]

I would be interested in the temperature quilt I’m in the process of knitting one at the moment so a new year sewing project would be good thanks

[@dianebaylis968]

Hi,Rachel,I just knew that you would buy the worn fabric.I have made three quilts from these.They turn out fabulous,but they are addictive.,save your pennies for the spring show.Would be fascinated to learn more about the temperature quilt.Thanks for another lovely ,cheerful video.xxxxx

[@stitchwithrachel]

You know me so well!! Xx

[@maryt2887]

Such pretty fabrics! I’m very interested in learning more about Kim Porter. I have started using men’s dress shirts in my quilts, and the idea of getting a bundle of assorted colors and prints from other reclaimed sources is fantastic. I also love your appliqué project. You have a lot to keep you busy!

[@stitchwithrachel]

Her bundles are wonderful. If you check out my Instagram I posted a video on her snd tagged her account x

[@dianecooke2885]

Hi Rachel, I so wanted to go to the Malvern quilt show but have ended up having hip replacement!!. but thank you for the virtual tour and showing your lovely purchases. Im just ordering a quilt as you go templete to do in my recovery as I love yours. I would love to follow long with making a temperature quilt too. Thank you for your lovely videos x

[@stitchwithrachel]

aww im sorry that you didn't get to attend this year, hopefully next year! I hope you enjoy stitching your QAYG and ill keep you posted about the temperature quilt x

[@marionmathews9852]

I absolutely love the idea of a temperature quilt and would love to join in. I’m just venturing into the world of quilting, and I’ve very recently bought a 10 inch layer cake from Ruby Star Society. I want to use this in a quilt by Jessica Dayon on KZbin. You bought some amazing and gorgeous fabrics……you won’t know what to sew first!

[@suemayo6825]

I’d love to see what you come up with for the temperature quilt. I was planning on starting one for 2024, so I may join in. Thanks Sue

[@debrastulik9039]

I am interested in your sew along on the temperature quilt. Thank you.

[@stitchwithrachel]

awesome, I'll keep you updated with some videos x

[@mardenechristian2699]

What is a "temperature"quilt? You peaked my interest. I adore your creations and videos. I am viewing this from Marietta, Georgia USA

[@stitchwithrachel]

Good morning, a temperature quilt is when you make a block each day where the colours reflect the daily temperature. It's a simple and small block esch day. I'll make a video explaining it all

[@alexabarber4015]

Hi Rachel, I just found and suscribed to your channel recently and am working my way through all your videos chronologically (as well as watching all the new ones as they come up). I love all that you do and find you very inspiring! I really loved the idea of the worn and washed fabrics but can't seem to find Kim Porter anywhere now - no activity on her Instagram for a while etc. Do you happen to know anyone else who does this kind of thing? Many thanks in advance! 🪡😻

[@stitchwithrachel]

Welcome to the channel!.. I hope you enjoy the rest of my videos. I've never seen anyone else do anything like kim porter unfortunately. I think she is still in business but only does very limited releases of fabrics

[@alexabarber4015]

@@stitchwithrachel Thanks Rachel - I'll keep looking! Yes - I'm loving all your videos. Hand-sewing is not really my thing but I think you might even convert me!!

[@ilses6815]

Hi, nice haul!! I didn't really like temperature blankets, when everybody seemed to be knitting or crocheting them. But now I am warming up to a quilted one. Kimberly Jolly, from fat quartershop is making one and I think that one is gorgeous! It's not the easiest, so I am not that sure I would do the same pattern. My main objection is, I think, that I am quite particular about color combinations. I could not do a real scrappy quilt; it's always 'scrappy within a colorscheme'. Having a backgroundcolor also helps. So I perhaps I'll join you, sewing a little block every day, or every week does sound like fun. Do you have any patterns in mind yet?

[@stitchwithrachel]

I do find the knit/crochet version to be quite labour intensive so I'm thinking a simple square a day with an easy shape appliquéd onto it (using whichever technique you like). I am also the same with colours so I'll be doing a pastel tone

[@lorreprentiss3604]

What is a temperate quilt or brick quilt?

[@stitchwithrachel]

A temperature quilt is when you make a block each day where the colours reflect the daily temperature

[@jackiebeck1427]

What is a temperature quilt?

[@stitchwithrachel]

It's typically done in knitting/crochet, where you knit a row per day in a set colour which depicts that days temperature but I am going to do a patchwork version.
