How to make DIY Citrus All Purpose Cleaner
I have made rag quilts before and I absolutely love them, I have purchased equipment to cut out all of my fabric which makes it so much easier
I love the barn with the horses I was just getting ready to order some material like that from jo-ann's
Do you clip the edges of your rag wheels or do you put binding on them?
Are you using batting in those or is that just two layers of material or three layers of material
This is what I would like to do for extra money I rather have it local meetups or drop off maybe ship every now and then but shipping is so expensive anymore I'd rather do it this way.
I am making my daughter a king size rag quilt right now and I was wanting to put the binding on it maybe a 3 inch and then fold it so that it'll be like a inch and a half or maybe a whole inch at least on the front and the back because it's so heavy.
You have a great idea here. I am just worried about buying fabric at JoAnn's and Hobby Lobby. When I started quilting I used their fabric and I learned that most of it is low quality. The flannel will fade and shrink,, and the cotton will split. If you get quality quilt store fabric on sale, you can do better. I learned the hard way. You want your customers to have a long term product. Also, Accuquilt has a rag quilt die, if you want to speed up your cutting. I wish you great luck and success!!!
I just retired this past Friday. I want to sew to help with income. Fell in Love with your rag quilts. May I asked what is the average price you sell the 12×12 square quilts? My mother is in her 80s and so excited I want to include her in my sewing venture. She's the reason I want to sew. :)
Love the baby blanket. I never made one before. I want to try and make one. About how many yards of fabric for each layer? Do i need to prewash? I'm excited to try.
Nice, thank you! Just retired and getting back to quilting. Had to stop for 3 years due to mandatory overtime, leaving me exhausted and not enough home time. 😅
Where do you have quilts listed for sale?
I don’t have a website I just sell locally.
I don’t see how to join quilt club. I’m sorry I just can’t find it!
On my main channel page there should be a join or membership button along with the “Video” or “Shorts” or “Community” tabs.
I feel so stupid but I can’t find it on my phone or tablet! Have others joined? I am NOT seeing it
Do you change thread color for some blocks?
I match thread to fabric as closely as I can.
@@Hiddenhilltophomestead you have so much patience!
I just love watching your videos! Also your voice is very nice , and you teach us so well. Thank you!
Thank you! 😃
Beautiful!! I look forward to your videos!!
This is very interesting. Thank you for sharing.
cutting 6 inch strips then cutting into squares would be much faster
Love your content and always look forward to your new quilting adventures in Rag Quilts
Iron before cutting helps
That did turn out lovely! One question, wouldn't it be easier to cut strips and then turn them into squares? Instead of individual squares?
That would be faster and more efficient. I just enjoy doing them this way. Personal preference!
@@Hiddenhilltophomestead Nothing wrong with that!
Love watching your videos. But on this one, seems like the music in the background is a bit loud. Srry.
Thanks for the feedback. I’ll have to see what’s causing that.
Im excited to watch this rag quilts are so forgiving!
Are your rag quilts flannel can u use cotton
Flannel on the back, cotton on the front and yes you could do the whole thing cotton
My first quilt was a rag quilt and I did flannel on both sides. It’s on our bed and it’s warm and cozy. 😊
😂 Some of those reds look a little familiar. 😂
Do you cut a certain number of squares from each print? Great video.
I mix it up try not to use more than 12 per pattern so I don't have a lot of repeats in the same row.
@@Hiddenhilltophomesteadso do you use 6 inch squares and every quilt that you make the rag quilts? The one I'm doing now is 8 inch squares but it's a king size rag quilt it will end up being 120 by 120.
In what size are all these quilts that you're getting cut up for right now
I’m so disappointed for you. What lousy and lazy judges. You can’t judge something you don’t bother to look at! It would have won, I know it. 🙁
I have gotten tons of good fabric at thrift stores. My town has a senior center with a small thrift store, and prices are very reasonable (cheap). And have been given fabric from ladies who claimed to retired from sewing. I also see ads on fb marketplace for yard goods. I had made a couple of rag quilts but did not use batting. Would you please do a video on how you use batting or do you use it at all??? Your quilts are GORGEOUS!💚💚💚
I have a "How to Make a Rag Quilt" video in my How-to Playlist, or search it on my channel!
You can save a Lot by using Pirate Ship, 20, 30%.
Came here to say this! Love helping small businesses out, and I love using Pirate Ship.
excellent video - gorgeous quilts 👍
Where do you get plastic bags large enough? Thank you
I wondered the same thing!🤔
These bags are about 24" by 25". I got these in bulk from a neighbor but they do have them on Amazon.
LOVE THIS VIDEO. I’m playing while I sew. I hope you don’t mind me asking but are you still selling these for $125? How would I buy one?
Thank you! I'm booked up with special orders until probably next spring. If I start offering items online I'll be sure to share my link.
@ I’m so thrilled for you! 💕👍🏽
A quick question. Are your squares only the two layers? Cotton on top and flannel on the bottom? Thank you.
batting in the middle as well.
Loved this video 😊
How do you decide on how to use your time? Do you allocate certain amounts of times? Are these quilts already purchased? Soooo many questions for you. I think your rag quilts are beautiful
I sew in my free time and make what I make. All of my quilts are sold by the time I post a video.
What size squares do you use for your rag quilts?
Great video as always
That fall quilt is BEAUTIFUL! This is such a great idea. Thank you for sharing and inspiration
That is awesome 🥰
New subscriber, great subject matter. I am BEYONDAWESOMEDESIGNS
Why flannel on the back? Could I use quilting cotton on both the front and back??? Thank you
You totally could! I like flannel because I like the texture but I've made some with all quilting cotton and they work just fine.
@ thank you! (I don’t like how Joann’s flannel washes up )
I’m addicted too! So seeing what YOU bought also helps MY addiction!
I love making and using rag quilts......what fabric do you use ??? I sure woud love to sell my quilts but so far in the last 20 years I have donated to charity groups over 3000 quilts
Check out my "How to Make a Rag Quilt" video!
Just think how many hearts you have touched!
Christine's home affairs from Australia even gets fabric donated - quite the cost savings too. Hope that helps.
Suggestion, use the leftover yardage like batting. It's a win-win.
Fantastic video! I enjoyed watching your handiwork as you spoke ... A suggestion is to offer a "Monthly Membership" with a fee & perks!!! ... Membership "Only" perks can include: advance classes, advance detailed videos related to general basic full audience youtube videos, special discounts on products, first in line to premier & purchase new products before the general audience, a Christmas Secret Member gift exchange between members, a Birthday Bonus offer on each member's birthday, and so much more!
That's a great idea!
This project seems so much easier than working with a huge single layer and batting and backing under the sewing machine!!
Thank you for sharing your process and ideas. I'm in the process of starting a quilting business which will primarily be longarm quilting. I think your simple focused approach is wise and could work for me, as well. Best wishes for you and your business ❣️
You’ve been so helpful and it is SO APPRECIATED! Would you mind sharing how much you would price this gorgeous quilt at? I would have NO idea! Thank you so much 💕💕
I'd do $200 on something like this.
@ Ty! And that’s a bargain because it’s stunning!
An inexpensive way to get fabric is at thrift stores. I look for curtains, bedding sheets, table cloth, anything that's cotton fabric. I also look for XXL clothes, dresses that have a pattern that I like and I buy it for the fabric. I chose the large clothes obviously because it has more fabric. Basically anything that's made of fabric can be reused.
Great tip!
But do people want to buy a quilt made from used fabric? Personally, I would not buy one like that.
How are the upcoming tarrifs going to effect cottage industry?
IMHO - it is really a non-issue overall, and specifically for quilts there would be little to zero impact. Labor is the biggest driver on determining a quilts sales price. If there is a tariff assessed on country of origin for fabrics, increase sales price a bit. The purchaser should understand about any increases - especially if they grocery shop!! And - tariffs are not a bad thing. (I am a recovering accountant…🥴🥴)
I love the Halloween fabric! Can you please tell us where you found that fabric?
@@chrisdunmyer4359 most of it came from joann fabrics
