I not only love ironing, I love vacuuming. So satisfying.

[@nikkireynolds9514]

Thanks for (Re)introducing the Ambassadors. It somehow increases the sense of community to see the profile pics and names. I don’t understand why this is so, but it is so for me.

[@michellewhiting2164]

My mother always told me to sign my first and last name and when it was made I everything I make. Quilting is long lasting and future generations will hopefully treasure it.

[@kristyrohm1500]

You have an awesome crew of ambassadors helping you. Thanks for adding info on quilt labels. That a big help!

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

Hello! Such a great chat for labels! I just got my first chance to sit down and watch as I was out and about today. I hope you have a wonderful week ahead! Thank you for sharing this video and your talent.

[@kassierandall2647]

Oh that was fun to see the pictures of the ambassadors. Thanks to them for all their help

[@patterb4772]

Gosh, Pat, how pretty that quilt you are working on turned out! From a distance I wondered what kind of lace you used on the rectangles. When you showed that sashing up close I saw it was just fabric! You are a master of using the best fabric for each block! I also love the polka dots on the Christmas Will you be my neighbor quilt! I want to make one using the polka dots!! I watch everyday and am blessed by your creativity and positivity !,! I’ve been concerned when you start back to your normal life! Thank you 🙏 Thank you 😊 You are such a blessing!🥳💕🦋

[@sharonoconnor7769]

Wow, 266k quilters that is so amazing. Thank you Pat for bringing us all together!❤️

[@cherylbaker5915]

Thanks for sharing pictures of blocks from the quilt along, I love to see them.

[@lynnscroggins7104]

So happy you have so many helpers for your moderators. Thank you all for keeping this a positive place to visit.

[@nadinemerrick1255]

I love the triangle labels. Ever since I first saw you describe them in a video, that's what I use. Thanks for the idea.

[@mariabean8627]

Thank you for all the great information. I love your tunic, that colour is gorgeous on you 😊

[@kareneads526]

You rocked out the rest of Words to Live By!! Soooo close!! Great job!!! Thank you so much for going back over the Ambassadors!! Gray scale info very helpful. I had placed several of my Farmer's Wife blocks on the wall and was sitting there looking at them and noticed that one seemed to read all the same color. I grayed it on my phone and sure enough - absolutely no contrast. It read as almost all the same color. So I'll be changing that one out. Your knowledge and information is certainly teaching me a lot!! Thanks so much! 💜

[@dot7146]

Great tips as always Pat. Thank you & thank you to your brand ambassadors. 👏⭐️

[@dianagrant9479]

Thanks so much for this information. One of my "UFO's" was make a label and I've been putting it off for nearly a year. I made the label today and will be attaching it tomorrow. Diana

[@laureneberhard1577]

Thanks for the reminder of greying out color> A good help if not sure about what I am using.

[@Lam321ThisIRecall]

I love ironing strips of blocks that way too 😄

[@nikkireynolds9514]

Wow! It’s so amazing how lovely that Words to Live By looks with those borders. I couldn’t see the attraction before, but now it is beautiful!

[@joyscranfield5527]

thanks for reminding us to use gray scale to audition fabrics, you can also use a piece of red cellophane to check your colors. nice of you to introduce your ambassadors. quilt label are so important! great visit today! see you Monday!

[@loridavison6672]

Hi group. When I'm doing scrappy. I take a picture of the entire quilt, then go to filters grey tones, to help get balance . I can move blocks .

[@rhondagarden8878]

Exactly! Or like when I was getting ready to make one of Ruth Ann Berry's 3D quilts, I was making it out of Moda grunge. So to make SURE my fabrics would read light, medium and dark, I would take pics in black and white. I had the hardest time with orange! I think I ended up not using grunge for medium 😅

[@pendell168]

Thank you Pat for showcasing my blocks today. Very exciting! Adding the sashing this early is a great idea. I think auditioning my sashing will help me to see how the many fabrics in Moonstone will be tied together. 😍😃🤩

[@rhondagarden8878]

I think your blocks were absolutely gorgeous! I love the pinks, greys and blacks!❤❤

[@rhondagarden8878]

Oh! Speaking of moonstone in general, it's one of my top favorite stones! I have a pair of earrings and a pendant!

[@rethamoore4282]

So glad I was able to see this post today. The lesson on labels was an eye opener for me. I would never have thought to add some of the info you suggested. Thanks Pat, love you bunches.🌹🌹🌹😀❤

[@PatSloan]

You are so welcome 💕

[@15ishJudy]

Words to Live by is comming out so good! I love the tweaks you made to patterns and how you select fabrics , thank you...and a big thanks for the PDF Label.

[@jennystrahley927]

Your Words to Live By is so cute! "Use What's Right in Front of You" is what I need to apply to my fabric stash! 😂 Loved meeting your Volunteer Ambassadors, and seeing some of the Summer Camp blocks. Happy Sewing everybody!

[@patriciahomer5342]

Thank you and thank you ambassadors!

[@marieerickson9695]

Thank you for sharing your community. I always appreciate a special tour behind the scenes!

[@cindymcfarland4686]

I always make detailed labels for my quilts. I usually make them with my embroider machine.

[@sandracedar368]

Good Morning! What a lovely way to wake up: you & your beautiful KZbin!! Thank you! Happy Saturday🤗

[@halfpint7094]

Look at the pink quilt. 😍 💕

[@edielaramore5368]

Good morning from sunny NH. It' s a gardening day for me. Tomorrow will be dedicated to cutting fabric for a fall table runner from Pat's Holiday book !!

[@kmdamron1]

Thank you for the label info.

[@sharonoconnor7769]

What an awesome video, the quilt is beautiful! Just watched a series of videos about cutting up mens dress shirts from the thrift store. So it is very cool to see blocks made from “memory fabric.”

[@cathyc1391]

Good Morning from Tampa, FL 😎

[@annarogers6322]

I used to live in Fairfax! I grew up in the Shen. Valley and am now back there again. I love your videos! I do not know how you get so many quilts made but I love them. I am looking for some fairly local retreats/classes. Do you have any suggestions? I consider myself a moderate beginner, but I need some help with some of the basics, like accurate cutting and matching points. They seem to be my biggest issues. Thanks for your feedback!

[@PatSloan]

cool! I don't do retreats so can't help you with that

[@AvivaHadas]

1. I enjoy making quarter square triangles with 4 triangles - I make intentional fabric cuts so that they make kaleidoscopes or so that the outer ones are the same as the corners in an Ohio star, etc. 2. Jinny Beyer has the Nonsense block on her site FREE as part of a block a week from 2016 made without quarter square triangles. (She uses a square in a square in the center, treat the remaining triangles as setting triangles around the rectangles. (4 small quarter squares to keep the edge on the straight of grain and 4 big half squares in the corners.)

[@jenniewren9351]

Thanks for the label information, it was really good. I do usually label (now), but don’t put enough info apparently. As a follow up to that do you provide any written care information for those who are unfamiliar with quilts. Quilting is not as popular here in UK and when I gift quilts (blankets as they call the) people are surprised that I want them to be used and that they can be washed.

[@danreiswig7848]

Do you have a video on how you pack a quilt top on backing for shipping to a long arm quilter?

[@PatSloan]

No I don't. I will put that on my list Dan

[@sandraweise5291]

What type of pins do you use to hang your quilts?

[@PatSloan]

for finished quilts on my wall I have curtain rods, . On my design wall it is straight pins into the design wall, that is not my finished wall.
