Tutorial : Jean Wells No Ruler Cutter & Piecing

[@cherylramey3948]

The camera needed to be more on what Jean is doing...there were times I couldn't see her hands at all. TY.. Love the demonstration just wanted to see more of it.

[@Stitchinpost]

Thanks for the feedback Cheryl. We keep working to improve our video skills.

[@nancy-katharynmcgraw2669]

Fun to see Jean wirwith a small group. Would appreciate the question, or have a microphone for the audience; thank you. Glad you noted other comments about wanting a closer view...

[@nancy-katharynmcgraw2669]

We are spoiled video watchers in quilting!!!

[@Stitchinpost]

Thanks for the feedback! We keep trying to improve.

Just what I was looking for...thank and God bless you. Gilly wife of Mark in Norfolk UK

[@Stitchinpost]

You're very welcome

[@nonyabidness1623]

My art teacher would say. Stop, dont throw that away, YOU CANT MESS UP ART! Here is the proof! Wonderful class!

[@dianejaquith3006]

Thanks for the great feedback.

[@MariaLuciaGomezGreenberg]

Great ideas and techniques-thank you. I just wish we could have had closeups of what you were doing. Your work is beautiful.

[@Stitchinpost]

Thanks - I'll pass your request on to Val.

[@Westernwilson]

@@Stitchinpost It would be great to have this very informative tutorial done over in higher definition as well!

[@Wyldhare47]

Holy moly..it’s just what I was looking for.....!..thankyou both....🙋🏼‍♀️🌻

What a delight to stumble across this video and get so much information and inspiration from such a fabulous quilter and teacher.🙂🙂🥰😍🤩😁😁

[@Stitchinpost]

Thank you so much!

[@saundraweed9738]

What a fun liberating way to be creative.

[@Stitchinpost]

Glad you like it!

[@smallfootprint2961]

Hi Jean. Just found you. You are inspiring. Thanks for posting about this creative quilting idea.

[@Stitchinpost]

You are so welcome! Glad you found us.

[@kathyschwager6978]

Jean, it was so much fun being "in the classroom" with you again!

[@grandmajane2593]

You don't need to cut the second piece, you can just sew the prior piece to the whole(uncut) piece. It will turn out the same when you press it.

[@rosemarymahrt2073]

Love the look. I’m a newbie and really wish I could see your process up close!

[@Stitchinpost]

Come visit us some time :)

[@clairehart6267]

I like when someone in the audience mentions a product I am not familiar with. We all learn differently.

[@nonyabidness1623]

Mesmerizing! These are things I've wandered about! Now we know, it works! Great skill noted here, in all areas!

[@dianejaquith3006]

Yay! So happy to hear you found a new skill. Ruler-less cutting is lots of fun!

[@lillylithgreen3216]

Love your book! Even happier to stumble upon this demonstration. It always helps to see everything in action. Thank you for sharing!

[@Stitchinpost]

Glad it was helpful!

[@andrewsackk]

Jean you are adorable thank you for the inspiration !

[@Stitchinpost]

Thank you so much!

[@sandradeprey24]

LOVE your demonstration...explaining the importance of color, cutter technique...with my hand limitations I am enjoying this style of quilting thanks

[@Stitchinpost]

Thank you Sandra

[@debbieacosta8448]

Very nice class. I was so happy that I could hear Jean today as the class from the other day, she faded in and out.

[@gailpape2927]

Fabriculous! Love this technique, I love the Gee’s Bend Quilts too. Thank you for the video

[@Stitchinpost]

You are so welcome!

[@SewHappy061]

Your so creative. Love your style!

[@Stitchinpost]

Thank you so much!

[@nancymathisen9707]

Beautiful work!

[@Stitchinpost]

Thank you very much!

[@teresatokeley3042]

Thank you so much for sharing your skills and thoughts about design in this video. I bought your book in 2009, read it and enjoyed it so many times but had never tried any of the techniques you describe. I cannot wait to get started on a new journey of discovery. Kindest regards from Teresa. Essex, U.K.

[@Stitchinpost]

You are so welcome!

[@sewandquiltwithaprilsawtelle]

I'm so happy that I found your channel. This video was so helpful. I love your teaching method. Thank you :)

[@Stitchinpost]

Welcome!

[@vickieplaisance9704]

Jean. I took a class with you many years ago in Pleasanton CA, we were doing jackets.

[@Stitchinpost]

Hi Vickie, Thanks for visiting.

[@dianegierling5271]

very helpful, thank you

[@Stitchinpost]

You're welcome!

[@Avotts]

Your wavy lines remind me of a colored bottle display. I would call it a bottle top square.

[@Stitchinpost]

Thank you

[@cherylbaney1287]

I would love to know how the very long pieces are sewn into the quilt that are extensions of the color in the smaller blocks. of

[@Stitchinpost]

Hi Cheryl, I'm not sure I understand your question, but I'll give it a shot. Jean usually constructs her curved pieces in sections then combines them. In the blue and green quilt she has two main sections where she rotated the direction of the pieced strips. The top strips run horizontal and the bottom vertical. I hope that helps.

[@minalshah764]

Please teach again online. Thank you!

[@elainecarson3558]

I would like to know the brand/model of the sewing machine and iron Jean Wells is using.

[@Stitchinpost]

Jean is using the store demo model of the EverSew Sparrow 20

[@jeandunbar1682]

Can you suggest a sewing machine with a drop in bobbin, I'm tired of having to open the little door underneath to put in a new bobbin

[@Stitchinpost]

We sell two Eversewn machines that have a drop in bobbin. We love the quality of this brand so we offer them, but otherwise we don't sell machines. If you want to call the shop (541-549-6061) they can tell you more about them.

[@jaeltay]

Thank you Jean.

[@ruthfrench4085]

This was very insipirational...thank you! You talked of a 5 month course...Adventurous Quilting or something like that. How can I find out about that? What is the cost? Has it already started?

[@Stitchinpost]

Hi Ruth, There is currently a session of Adventures in Art quilting going on. We will be offering it again in the spring though. Sign up for our newsletters if you want to be sure to know when it's available for sign up.

[@ruthfrench4085]

@@Stitchinpost Thank you. I will find your newsletter and sign up.

[@Ka-ly8oi]

Thank you, I was always wondering how to do this.

[@Stitchinpost]

Glad we could help

[@elainecarson3558]

I would like to know the brand of the sewing chair, too.

[@Stitchinpost]

The chair is a basic office chair. It's pretty old and no one seems to know anything else about it. Sorry, I don't have more info for you.

[@simonecarvallhoartes2614]

Excelente👍

[@jeandunbar1682]

Also do you have a pattern for the yellow wall hanging behind you in this video?

[@Stitchinpost]

Sorry no, that's a Jean Wells original using no ruler cutting. She goes into more detail for the technique in her book if you're interested stitchinpost.com/products/intuitive-color-design-book-2nd-ed?_pos=2&_psq=intuit&_ss=e&_v=1.0

[@delawurl5938]

Thank you for this video; wished your camera person could have gotten closer to see you actually sew these.

[@Stitchinpost]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@clairehart6267]

Very Blurry at times

[@301coffee]

Could i have the names that were those books on the table ..very interested

[@Stitchinpost]

Do you mean Jean's books? If so they are Intuitive Color and Design, and Journey to Inspired Art Quilting. You can find them both at stitchinpost.com

[@LadyDIYer]

Great but it is a great shame there aren’t enough close ups.

[@Stitchinpost]

Thanks for the suggestion

[@shohrehjannesari9830]

Hi Where is your state and town. Thanks

[@Stitchinpost]

We're in Sisters, Oregon

[@marilynvires1456]

That shield doesn’t protect you or anyone else. The moving air carries those particles both ways around that shield. It isn’t safe!

[@Stitchinpost]

Hi Marilyn, The video was taken last summer and at the time face shields were recommended by the state. We're learning and adapting like everyone else. Thanks for watching.

[@berithokanson4437]

Great class, love Jean's work but video and editing quality is very bad.

[@Stitchinpost]

Thanks for the feedback and for watching. We're learning and trying to improve with each video

[@katherinefuechsel8747]

yes - love the topic but the camera work needs improvement......it is also very blurry...

[@teresaramosbonilla344]

Y

[@0246blondie]

It’s not close enough.

[@Stitchinpost]

Thanks for your feedback.

[@glorial5916]

I love this work but I think you need to get closer to her working. Not great videographer

[@Stitchinpost]

Working on it! Hopefully our more recent videos are improved.

[@delawurl5938]

Thank you for this video; wished your camera person could have gotten closer to see you actually sew these.

[@Stitchinpost]

Thanks for the suggestion. This is one of our earlier videos and we're getting better, but there is always room for improvement!
