I love how u show these without talking!!!! after a week of hearing people talking, it is so relaxing to just watch u do it. i can even turn the sound on my phone to mute since you type the measurements on the video! Thank you soo much

[@teresadownunder]

😊😊🙏

[@mike1968442]

I agree!! I wish there was NO music either.

[@teresadownunder]

You can mute it

[@susyk6839]

It works perfect for lunch at work. Easy to watch & understand without sound.

[@tigs5354]

I've seen the first block many times, but not using that method. It looks so much easier than the way everyone else does it. Definitely going to give it a go (once I've got my UFOs finished). I love your videos.

[@teresadownunder]

Thanks 🙏

[@Yellow44Cheese]

Bravo!! I learned multiple new things today from you.

Hi Teresa, just wanted to let you know that I am not receiving notifications from KZbin when you post. You might want to see if anyone else has the same problem. I did check and I have the correct notification setting. I have it at see all of your postings. Hope that it is only happening to me. Thanks for all of your tips and wonderful videos.😀

[@teresadownunder]

Quite a few people have said that and I’ve noticed in the decrease of traffic. Not sure what the solution is.

[@mariadiebert892]

@@teresadownunder , I'm not sure either. Best of luck with this situation. I've heard of other KZbinrs having the same problem. Wonderful channel 😁

[@carolynmurtaza1180]

Wow, How can you make something I would have difficulty making look sooo easy. Plus love the music. Going to buy the fabric to try make the colour flair down under quilt next week, giving myself 3 months to make it. Not looking forward to cutting out all the squares as I'm doubling the size of the quilt.

[@teresadownunder]

Have fun!

[@rosegrant4633]

Have you noticed yet that 2 3/8 is smaller than 2 1/2 in the fish block cutting instructions? Thanks for this clever short cut. I like it very much. I have tried several fish variations and two at a time is the best!

[@teresadownunder]

🙏🙏

[@pegasusquilts]

Here's my problem: between your videos and book, i can't decide which enticing design to try first! At least I know I'll be making whatever it is in the most efficient way and have gorgeous layout ideas to choose from!

[@teresadownunder]

So much to do so little time… I can relate 😊

[@joycethigpen5230]

Awesome!! I have watched 3 times. Ready to start on the first block. Its different. How about twin bed and queen sizes. I'll let you know by Thursday my finishes project.. Have a great weekend.

[@teresadownunder]

Wow! Great. Can’t wait

[@sivanova1965]

[@marilynflottman5001]

Is there a way to calculate what size pieces to begin with to make larger blocks? I’m thinking of the last example of the 3 triangle block. Love your innovative ideas!

[@teresadownunder]

I haven’t tried any other sizes yet

I don’t but it’s good practice

I'd love to make these bigger!! How can I do the math on this...for larger block...please!!! TY

[@teresadownunder]

I’m sorry I don’t have a formula for that

[@bobh4060]

In your last segment how do you figure out the starting size of the rectangles needed for various sizes?

[@teresadownunder]

I haven’t actually worked the math for it

[@bobh4060]

Thank you Teresa. Have a great day!

[@teresadownunder]

🙏

[@robyncarson9586]

I saw the measurement on the first block for the first 3 squares, but not for the next ones that look bigger. I watched it 3x thinking I just missed it but I still didn’t see . Please let me know what the next layer of 3 I think, what those measurements are. Ty.

[@teresadownunder]

Well, you have to measure after you add each square to know what size to cut next. That’s how I made the block

[@michelleshelby01]

That first block is amazing. Was it very thick when finished?

[@teresadownunder]

Not more than usual.

[@michelleshelby01]

@@teresadownunder thanks. I'm definitely going to try it. Thanks so much for sharing your clever ideas

Looking for your New York beauty tutorial

[@teresadownunder]

I think you got it

[@sarahbotha8090]

When you sewed around the square, why did it look like the thread was loose?

[@teresadownunder]

Did it? It could be it was loose at the precise time. You get stuff happening while recording

[@teresadownunder]

Oh, don’t credit me with all the ideas 😊

[@lindacoleby2208]

Hi, videos need to be slower so people can follow properly what you are doing.

[@teresadownunder]

You can adjust the playback speed on your KZbin player

[@nylanelson5212]

Great tips but I cannot believe she sews over pins. Never ever sew over pins as not only can you break a needle but cause burrs in the shuttle hook that holds your bobbin & causing you Hundreds of dollars to your sewing machine

[@teresadownunder]

😩

[@pegasusquilts]

Actually, I don't think she does. The pins are very carefully placed, and she pulls them out as she goes.

[@pegasusquilts]

I looked into this recently, since i sew over pins. Manufacturers don't agree that hitting a pin will harm the machine. Machines just aren't that delicate. I've done it for 60 years. Yes, you break a needle or bend a pin or both but i don't know if anyone whose machine has been damaged by it.

[@teresadownunder]

That’s also my experience.

[@teresadownunder]

I try not to. Particularly on video but it does happen from time to time.
