How to Change the Size of a Quilt Block! Make A Block Any Size with These Tips!

[@susanharber6488]

DEAREST Megan. Did you hear me shouting? Were your ears ringing? Bravo to you! Just plain old BRAVO to you. I watched this particular video many time now and still struggle not to cry. 😘They are very happy tears. My Mother was a math teacher her entire career. She even drove the high school math club mini bus to competitions! She loved and breathed everything math and did her best every day to make it simple for everyone. She would have LOVED this video and although I get the math, I still needed this video. Thank SO much. Keep you up the great job and do what you love!

[@ZannaTheGreat]

Yes, please! Bring us all the quilt math videos! This was great!

[@beatakubicki3070]

Really great “teach a man to fish” tutorial. I’m very grateful for this and your other cutting maths tutorials. Thanks so much.

[@nellietorres206]

I love how you teach easy ways of doing blocks and easy of using good math and not stupid math. Great tutorial.

[@LizzaLee]

I'd love a video on how to calculate fabric for a quilt. I'm definitely pro quilt math!

[@megegert861]

I’m keeping this tutorial! Such a help. But, my nonlinear brain is baffled by the size of the half square triangle flying geese. Not sure how you came up with that.

[@krisstorts9]

Same here Elizabeth!

[@cathyenglish]

This was one of the most helpful quilt tutorials I have watched. Thank you so much for posting!

[@janislong279]

Definitely pro quilt math. Thank you for this. Please post more videos like this. 😊

[@vickichandler5872]

There you go again... another helpful, informational and easy to understand tutorial. Very nicely done. Thank you for sharing you expertise with us. Take care and blessings to all y'all.

[@TerriODonnell]

Wow! I LOVE your take on quilting. TY! TY! I feel as though you just pulled back the magic curtain for me and opened up so many possibilities. I am new to quilting as of Aug 22 and absolutely love, love quilting. I have heard of no one else breaking this down in such a way so it’s NOT a mystery. Keep ‘em coming!

[@sandraengstrand2784]

Pro quilt math!! Thanks for the detailed explanation on how to resize blocks!!! ✂️🧵❤️

[@ronbradstreet7720]

This was very helpful..I appreciate you taking time to simplify the process...Kathy

[@BrendaH289]

I have been patiently waiting for someone to show me how to do this. Thank you pretty lady 💜💜

[@melaniehulm]

Love seeing a picture of a quilt block and then working out how to make it... therefore I guess I love quilt math. Thanks for the great tutorial!!!

[@margaretdeer1124]

Yes!!! More quilt math.it can also be fun to to do with a child to create something with math!

[@tracyjudd3877]

Love this!! You are the BEST Quilt Math Nerd, I know💗💗💗💗 Thank you for teaching us, your genius:)🎉💗🎉

[@maggiemaggie66]

Absolutely PRO quilt maths 👍

[@pamelacrooker9274]

Yes please, more quilt math. Sometimes I am my own worst enemy, making things more complicated than need be.😅 I would enjoy seeing how you calculate yardage needed for a whole quilt, BACK and all. I cannot always get 108 wide backs, that would be heaven. I stare at the 40 wide and I am sure I make it harder than is needed. I make 48 x 60 lap quilts most often and I always put my spare blocks into the back, making it just a bit harder. Your explanations are always straight forward. Thank you

[@sharoncook2533]

Love your pace, graphics and tone & speed of conversation! Very helpful and very professional!

[@elsie3255]

This was so helpful. You give me hope that resizing a block is doable for me. Sigh. No more messing with tiny pieces! Yay. Good explanation. Cudos. God bless you and stay safe.

[@elizabethboger9424]

I definitely want more quilting math. This is wonderful

[@sewhapi2347]

I'm so impressed on this video!!! 👏 Thank you!!!

[@donnadegriowinnegar9592]

I have never resized a block. This was great!!

[@scattervanshine4978]

Definitely pro quilt math...more please! Thank you for this, very understandable

[@rochellek3058]

Love how easy you just made quilt math!😊

[@Tami_from_Texas]

This is great info for sizing on blocks so that I can smaller wall hangings instead of larger quilts. I would love a sequel to this showing how to calculate the yardage or what precuts to use to be most efficient in the quilt process for making the desired block. Thanks again for some ever helpful info, this is going in my tutorial list.

[@mmckerley1]

Bring on the math! I loved your video!

[@glendacrouch1877]

Love the quilting math! Show us more!

[@lmusern]

By the way, you have slowly become one of my go to tutorials. I appreciate you!

[@TereseFrancis]

I really needed this video! Great tips and information. You made it so easy.

[@pegrichmond502]

Definitely pro math quilt! This satisfied my need for logic puzzles and quilting all at the same time. Thank you and keep 'em coming.

[@maryannecadd796]

Very interesting topic, but I fall into that last category of "just tell me how big to cut it". The older I get, the less adventurous I feel! I totally admire those quilters like you that can create such awesome patterns and share their talents with others!

[@elsafischer3247]

Thank you thank you from Switzerland 🇨🇭

[@jennifergawel1436]

Yes! We need more quilt math videos!!! I love this! I need quilt math videos on how to apply different cutting techniques (flying geese, 4 and 8 at a time HST), and the rules to follow when calculating them. Also, fabric panels, pieced borders and math for them! Thank you!!! 🤗

[@TamiLee-cm2of]

Math = My least favorite part of quilting. Thank you for making this helpful video! I'd also like to see more videos like this that help with the math when designing your own quilts. Thanks again, Megan! ❤️😊

[@michelleinScotland]

Yes please Megan more video's like this. I would definitely be interested in working out yardage for quilts. Thank you.

[@Barbaracoyle]

good morning. miss seeing you. have a bless Tuesday

[@onlyrufuscarolina9676]

Thank you! Trying to make a large carpenter's star. Breaking it down like you showed has helped greatly.

[@DottieWatkins]

More quilt math, please! This was awesome!

[@dorothyschaack1490]

I love the quilting math videos. Sometimes I really get stuck.

[@laurieramsay9358]

Yes please...love to know more quilt math

[@judieallison9791]

I'm a quilt math person. I like your ideas for future videos. I would like videos of the ones you mentioned.

[@valcartwright]

Brilliant instructions. Really clear and demystified how to change block sizes. Thank you!

[@craftyhodges]

Wow! I feel so empowered now! ❤️. Thank you so much for the very thorough tutorial. Joanne

[@margaretlowans8429]

I just rewatched this video and it kept me glued till the end again. Thanks

[@barbararoberts152]

When you explain it, it makes so much sense. Thank you !

[@ernestinehicks2145]

I’ve resized before, and found it very satisfying to see the end product! Your tutorial gave me additional info and a splash of courage! Thanks so much!

[@carmenbailey1560]

Wow, lots of information, thanks I think I’d have to watch this a few times. Thanks for sharing 👍❤️😊

[@pattisilva953]

Thank you so much. This is very helpful and your explanation is great. 👍👏

[@5kidsmyhusbandandme]

This is my absolute favorite video!!! Thank you. I love to make big block quilts so this was wonderful. ☺️😍

[@dianetesheneck8662]

I love piecing quilt blocks, but I thought I should try paper piecing. I enjoyed your video. Diane

[@maryannterwey3404]

Very helpful. I need more quilting math knowledge!

[@abigaildolinger2754]

This method makes so much sense, Megan. Thank you! I think other quilt math videos would be helpful. (I also liked the length of time the bullet points lasted “on the screen.”)

[@AnitaSouthall]

The only thing that I would add is a cutting list for a basic 3, 4 and 5 grid system with each picture of the same as per the screen examples. Because it's hard to see what Megan wrote down. Just to make it super easy.

[@TheLeela630]

I've been trying to figure this out for months... Your explanation made it FINALLY click. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH

[@TinyOrchardQuilts]

I’m so glad I could help!

[@TheLeela630]

@@TinyOrchardQuilts I have a question I hope you can help me with. How do you figure our what size to make a block originally..Say I was to pick a block from an encyclopedia of blocks and there is no set size. Do I just pick a size or is there certain math to do?

[@lmusern]

I am keeping this tutorial!! What a help. Thank you!! Looking forward to more math tutorials.

[@sonsandgrandsons]

Nicely instructed. Thanks. Now it makes sense to my pea brain. Haha.

[@tfrankum01]

Loved this video! I’m definitely pro-quilt-math!

[@susanmei9980]

Thank you. What I’d like is a tutorial on all the different ways to make multiple half square triangles, when to use each method, and then how to figure what size to cut for each way. In comparison, all in one place, so we can keep referring back to it in the future, as needed. Thx again! 😊

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

Very cool and such a pretty block ! Thank you for sharing your video.

This is just what I was looking for. I bought a pattern and it was a lot bigger than I thought it would be. I was trying to figure out how to make the block smaller and found your tutorial. Thanks!!!!!

[@russelbotha756]

Thank you once again for a great and super informative tutorial

[@cathybroadwood6938]

Definitely useful! Thanks :)

[@blairseibert1778]

Megan, thank you sooo much. I have thought about this video many times even though I've not changed a block's size yet. I keep seeing other people asking about how to do this and I'm forwarding the links. I'm a newer quilter and hadn't thought about the importance of breaking the block into grids. You do magic for us because you make it so simple!

[@christelgietmann2943]

Great tutorial, thanks!

[@skylarb.3363]

Yeah! Love quilt math!!!!

[@barbduvall3842]

Thank you so much. I had been looking for a video to resize blocks. I was so lost. I was caught up on adding 7/8 on some blocks oh I was struggling. I appreciate all your time and effort. I have learned so much from you. I laughed so hard at your stupid math comment.
