I look forward to trying this method of quilting. You break it down where it seems achievable, thanks Laura…you are a wonderful teacher!

[@lynneschultz316]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I have the stencils and pouncer but the first time I tried, I was not pleased. Now I know how to use them correctly-your explanation was precise and thorough, as always. I have four baby quilts for Israel in the queue. Perfect timing. I appreciate you and all you do.

[@mendyelliott9495]

Quilting from the back is genius! Perfect timing too because I just ordered my first stencil and pounce pad. Thank you 😊

[@kerrywatkin4658]

About to quilt a large quilt and have bought a stencil to use. Your tutorial is very helpful and I now feel confident to begin. Thank you.

[@christineplumstead]

The pins as starting points and the marking from the back is an excellent idea! I will give my pounce another try and expect I will get better results. Thanks for the tutorial, you make it look so easy. 😍

[@CLAIRE-cu9un]

This is great info, Laura! A clever way to mark my quilts! Thank you so much for sharing this with us!! I can't wait to try it!!

[@joanwilson1285]

Thank you, thank you! I learned more from you today about using stencils properly and I'm excited to try it! This video was amazing

[@ronnab3464]

Wow! I have stencils hanging in my shop but just thinking about marking every line with a marking pen was enough to not try it. I can't wait to try this now! Thank you for all of your great tips for quilting. 💕

[@carolynkightlinger5190]

thank you, I will be using all the hints. You are my favorite to watch.

[@KCQuilting]

I didn’t even think about quilting it from the back! Girl, you’re so smart!! 💖

[@gailjernigan2482]

Great directions and tips!!! You always make everything seem “sew” easy!! Thank you, Laura!!! 🥰

[@jeanbray558]

Very informative I believe I can quilt my own quilts now

[@azoa73]

I've never heard of a pounce pad. I'm getting ready to do my first freehand and I'm so excited to save some time with the pounce :)

[@rondabergeron4414]

I really enjoy your videos. They make me smile and make my quilting better. Thank you for sharing.

[@donnaroach5983]

[@lindaskinner5887]

Wow loved that process. Thanks for sharing.

[@doreensherk287]

Such a good video, thanks….I will give it a try

[@LindaSmith-ng6fs]

Thank you so very much for this wonderful video. I am not fond of long arm quilting, If I wanted a thin hard blanket I can buy on at wal-mart a whole lot cheaper than quilting. I am new to quilting but I do want a kinda thick warm quilt. Isn’t there anyone that still makes the kind we kept hanging in the living room till it was finished. I do watch your videos and love your methods. I haven’t a large one just baby and lap and panels, all of which I faked my way through. Thanks for sharing your talent and knowledge of quilting.

[@whbrownbrown4723]

WOW you just open up my mind and changing it about quilting myself. Other then straight lines or diamond type patterns. THANK YOU.

[@marshasetering3143]

Excellent video. This is the first MARKING video I've seen. Very informative and useful. Thank you!!

[@ginnypalmer8752]

[@jog2010]

Cleaver, I will have to give that a try

[@carlvandoorselaere8895]

you are the best teacher i have ever seen thank you

[@sewquilty]

SO that's what I have did wrong! I was pouncing & what a mess, Thank You!

[@mshewski357]

Look forward to seeing you every day. I am interested in the backing that you use on your tablecloth as I have a tablecloth I want to complete but can't decide what kind of material to use for the backing. Thank You, Elaine

[@phyllisclark5011]

I can't wait to try this method of quilting. Thank you so much.

[@lindapucillo3493]

Wow! You make using a pounce and stencil so exciting! Any advice on what types of stencils to use? I would love to do more than straight line quilting on my quilts, and this looked beautiful. Thanks!

[@judyscicchitano7906]

Awesome video! Thank you🩷

[@erindennis2966]

Excellent. Was having trouble seeing chalk on front of quilt fabrics. This is perfect

[@DianaHernandez-kn1ne]

Awesome tfs

[@BrindaOK]

As a new quilter this was very informative for me. Thank you! Also, can you tell me about the little faces fabric in the quilt on the wall behind you? I love it so much

[@catkoe9321]

Thank you so much! Do you have a tutorial on how to iron on the fusible batting?

[@donnaforeman2880]

Ah. Thank you. I wasn’t aware of the registration mark

[@torreycat7716]

Hi Laura. Can you make a crossbody purse for a cellphone? I’m thinking probably with a couple of small compartments for a young teenage girl. A place for a feminine product and a credit card. Whatcha think? I’m thinking with a zipper top, not a flap. Thx!

[@ellenhartley4998]

I love this! I have all of my moms old stencils. How does the powder not rub off?

[@paulinestobbe8793]

Thanks for the video. I appreciate your “finish line” videos (and others, as well). Do you have a pattern for this table topper?

[@merryliles3047]

Where can I find the pattern for quilt you’re working on. Love it!

[@sunseekerrs3087]

I used the pounce chalk to mark a whole throw sized quilt, but the chalk rubbed off before I could get it quilted even when using hairspray. Is there any other way to prevent this? I don’t have a long arm or mid arm, just a regular domestic machine.

[@cheyaweber704]

Love all your helpful tips. I've learned so much that I can incorporate into my free-motion quilting. BTW, I love the quilt behind you. What's the pattern name so I can search for it on the web?

[@lisadvorak1527]

Oh my goodness can it really be this easy. But I quilt using my sewing machine. I’m going to give this a whirl.

[@barbarasalisbury5718]

Thank you Laura. What brand is the stencil please?

[@angelarussell3274]

I have the pounce thing and the chalk for it but I hand quilt. Do you have any tips on using the pounce while hand quilting? I have only tried using it once because it all faded off while I was quilting and had to redo it all.

[@jeane.2722]

thx

[@conniegreen4337]

Great ideas for marking a quilt to be stitched edge to edge. Do you use 100% cotton batting? I'd be concerned about melting a batt tat contains any polyester.

[@stephaniesalva9036]

How did u put the batting and the backing on the quilt?

[@chrisspurr7866]

Hello ! What sewing machine were you using in the video to quilt from the back ? Please and thank you.

[@mariefrance8132]

where can I get the stencils for quilting … I would love to try this … thank you.

[@caro4359]

This is fine if you use a regular sewing machine, not a longarm machine.

[@lizfoster551]

When I use a pounce pad the design disappears/rubs off very quickly. How can I stop this from happening?

[@kathykaplan2451]

I spray very light mist of hairspray across the chalk

[@lizfoster551]

@@kathykaplan2451 thank you Kathy but are you still able to remove the chalk by ironing?

[@kathykaplan2451]

@@lizfoster551 I watched the video with no sound because it was late, so I didn't know it was iron away...I have the one that brushes away and it works pretty good with the hair spray. Maybe you can make a sample and see if it irons away.

[@lizfoster551]

@@kathykaplan2451 thank you, I appreciate your replies to assist me😊

Ponce pattern traced, please.
