Thank you. I was looking for something like this. This will be very helpful. Don't know why there are so few people who even think to do this. Most are so focused on making the squares in an easy way, but then don't focus on simple ways of putting them together!
I know im asking the wrong place but does someone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account? I was stupid forgot my password. I love any help you can offer me!
@Cody Jimmy Thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and im in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
This is fabulous, I can deal with this better than quilting a whole quilt. I have always said I would never quilt by hand but if I had to do the hand part for this I would not mind. Thank you so much !
I think you did a very good explanation. It was easy to understand, and I loved how you had the different blocks ready to show what was done without waiting for each stitchout. Thank you !
I have done the second method many times. It works great to glue the sassing down with washable school glue and then touch it with an iron to set it. It stays in place perfectly so you can do your top stitching. It washes right out and leaves no trace.
Thank you for showing everyone how to do this. I use Elmer's Washable School Glue to hold it all perfectly in place (iron it to dry) & sew it in place by machine. Totally washes out. You made this look easy & it is! The glue is a game changer. I appreciate anyone that takes the time to make a video to help so many others! THANK YOU!
What kind of pattern and material is that a fat block or something I’m just now trying to learn how to do this and I hope I’m ass in the white Christians thank you
Well, there's a finish I can deal with! I've never done quilt as you go but I'm going to now!! Thank you so much for sharing. I LOVE the blanket stitch and use it where ever I can. I've done quite a bit of raw edge applique with the blanket stitch and it looks great! Your "spring" quilt is going to look beautiful with all those bright colours. Very nice job!!
Wow!! Thank you. You are a wonderful teacher and I would love to see you make the blocks from the beginning and I would love to see you do the quilting on it 💜
Great job of explaining this concept. I have had too many surgeries on my hands and wrists to hand sew. I'm definitely trying this method soon. Thank you.
The best video I have found for quilting as you go. I only have a basic sewing machine and I can't sew massive quilts because the fabric just won't fit. This way, I can make the blocks and then sew them together afterwards. I will be doing the hand stitch one, as that would be the easiest for me. Thank you for such a great, helpful video that got straight to the point and didn't waffle on for ages before we got down to the sewing bit.
I have 3 quilts all ready to be joined... been scouring UA-cam for as many QAYG methods that I can find for the easiest method. Your method is the best one I have run across in a year. Thank you so much for this tutorial. I will look forward to viewing many more from you.
🌸You did a fantastic job teaching this method! You were so prepared with no wasted time! I love this method- I tried it after first seeing your video a few months ago! It works great- I’ll never have to pay someone to long arm my quilts again! I have subscribed- I think you are an excellent teacher and I want to encourage you to post more tutorials! Thank you!😉👍🏼
I think using the blanket stitch along the already sewn edge would tie the visual effect together and keep the technique a secret. Love your video teaching method. Please make more.
Can't wait to try this on a crazy quilt I'm piecing. The small sashing should show off the blocks very nicely! Thanks for taking the time to make the video!
OMG, you just took away all my fear of doing a QAYG quilt. I belong to the FACEBOOK QAYG group page but have never actually made one yet. I've made several reqular quilts but I have always had this nervousness about committing myself to making a QAYG and then being completely disappointed with it and wasting all that fabric and time. With this technique I'm now going to make my King size quilt that I've been procrastinating about for 3 years. I can now pull out the beautiful black and white fabrics I've been saving and make my log cabin quilt for my bed. Thank you for sharing this with us all.
@@alishawilliams938 - She IS a great camera person! She knew when to close in for a closer look and when to back out; also, she did a great job of holding the camera steadily so we the viewers didn't feel dizzy watching the video. I'm guessing she also knows how to piece quilts and perhaps even do QAYG as she seems to know just where to aim the camera and when. I enjoyed her laughing also,
Thank you so much!! This was a great video and your technique gives me the courage to do this! I have been quilting for awhile now but have been hesitant to try QAYG because joining the blocks always looks cumbersome and sloppy. Your clear explanation and technique has made it doable.(Thanks for the prepared visuals, it was what really set this video apart and made it clear.) Your kid was super cute too!
Thank you for this! I made my daughter a T-shirt quilt for college using your method and it was the easiest quilt I’ve ever made. Never using the traditional method again!
I love the sewing on the machine for the quilt as you go, because I want my quilts to be used. Haven't made any yet, but I want to. Thank you, you make it look so easy. This is from Jan 29, 2019. I love it.
Thank you so much for the straight forward instructions on this! I am at this part of my quilt and other videos confuse me with too much info.🤔 lol Thanks again💟
wow this is awesome.. I have been planning on making a quilt for a LONG time and so I have been watching tons of sewing videos and I have also WORRIED about the quilting portion of the project. Wondering how in this world I was gonna quilt it on a regular sewing machine.. YOU HAVE SOLVED THIS PROBLEM FOR ME.... THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU... I haven't tried this yet, but I am going to as soon as I can... I am saving this video to my favorites on my computer and I am subscribing to your channel.. Thank you so much for your AWESOME video... God bless you...
Love your video. I would suggest you press the seams before you attach sashing to the blocks. this way they will be even and quick. You can also make a folded one and this way its all tucked in. Dang I love your video, such a great job. thank you
I really enjoyed this video. You had me when you said that you trimmed it to 9” because of . . .mistakes. I can be really perfectionistic and from the beginning you helped me to let go. Also, the giggles in the background made me smile. I’ve subscribed and I am looking forward to more videos.
Alisha, your video is excellent!!! I love your organization and explanations. I was very disappointed to see that you only have one video. Please consider making more! Your channel would do very well! Thank you for a clear and concise video without the rambling.
Alisha LOVE THIS VIDEO!! New subbie here. rang notification bell as well. want to make a suggestion for you for your style where you have to line it up with the other stitch line. Of course, iron it down but to get it to stay...Washable school glue. line it up gluing a thin bead as you go and then place a book covered in foil on it to hold it down. you can do several blocks at a time and by the time you finish your fourth blocks set the first should be dry. You get the idea, I hope. Your instructions are lovely. I have a log cabin denim quilt I am doing and want to quilt as I go with denim strips I can do this method I am putting an anti-pill fleece back on it at least that is the plan, if this method will not work with the disparity of fabric perhaps will just back with denim plain squares quilted will go so much faster than the log cabin. Bless you all over the place and back again for giving me a solution to do this with!!! WOuld love to see you repeat this video while actually doing it. I can slow it down if I have to. Love the giggles from your peanut gallery in the background Did my heart so much good. Love it! Thank you again!
Im doing denim on front alternating with shirt fabric with flannel as batting and flannel backing. Feels thick at the seam. Your method covers. Will see if it works with blanket stitch. You didn't say what sz stitch.. Fingers crossed. MJ
Thank you thank you thank you! I have made some blocks with Hawaian Aplique and Quilting I wanted to turn into pillows. But I had so much fun with that technic that now I have enough to make a quilt and I was wondering how to put the blocks together. This Technic will work wonderfully!
Thank You Alisha! I appreciate your effort and the results are nice too. Would love to see a picture on the end of this video of the finished product though.
Brilliant video. Thank you. Please do a video showing all of your lovely different quilting patterns. They look amazing and as if they may be good for learning to quilt.
I use 1 inch on the back and 1 1/2 inch on the front, fold the front piece in half before sewing and I don't have to worry about turning the seam under before I sew it down on the machine.
@@loriberlin9712 yes! I do this all the time by making the front sashing wider and folding it exactly in half , you can finger press the fold then use a light iron and press the sashing down and go right along the edge with your presser foot.
Oh, thank you!!! I'm just starting in the hobby, and have done two quilts, both of which were very difficult to machine quilt due to their size ( 45x70 and 110x80). You've made things a lot easier. Now I can make either large blocks and quilt them individually, or gather several smaller blocks together, then quilt, and finally join by the method you demonstrated.. I am guessing that this method could be used on long strips also. At least strips are much easier to manipulate than a whole quilt.
Great review and clear explanation of connecting QAYG blocks. I have a QAYG quilt in the UFO's waiting to be finished for my mom (who is getting older by the day and I want her to get it before she dies!) I've saved this vid to my favourites and I'll soon be taking out Mum's quilt and finishing it. Perhaps for Mother's Day (American Mother's Day in May, not British Mother's Day in March.) Mum's in the USA, I'm an American ex-pat living in England.
I love the machine stitching, I have a disease called CIDP and hands are numb and no strength and get fingers that will spasm and lock. I am only learning, I haven't made anything yet. Just watching videos so I can learn. Thank you so much, just found you on here.
OH MY! The light bulb over my head finally is lit!! I got it! WONDERFUL tutorial for quilt as you go!!!!! Thank you a million times. I hope you make more videos. I do wonder where you find the patterns to quilt on your blocks. I have an embroidery/sewing machine and hope to find some premade patterns as I really stink at free motion!
LOVE this. Thank you so much for sharing this. I have an old Dresden plate kit, I have got as far as cutting backing and batting, and was terrified to try and join the squares the way the instructions said.
Your video work perfect for people who are listening to tutorials in 1.5 x speed . No um's or er's and you get to the point. I appreciate it.
Thank you. I was looking for something like this. This will be very helpful.
Don't know why there are so few people who even think to do this. Most are so focused on making the squares in an easy way, but then don't focus on simple ways of putting them together!
I’ve watched about 50 videos on how to do this. Yours is by far the most comprehensive. Hope you make more videos.
I know im asking the wrong place but does someone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account?

Great job explaining quilt as you go! I would like to see more of your videos and sewing!
If you iron one strip in half and sew the raw edges to the quilt square, you have a finished edge to sew down. Saves lots of time and looks nice.
What kind of material is that
What kind of pattern and material is that a fat block or something I’m just now trying to learn how to do this and I hope I’m ass in the white Christians thank you

A million thank you’s … just learning to QAYG and you have the best sashing applications!!!! And blanket stitch… “who knew” lol lol😊❤
I'm so glad you showed how to do this in a plain and simple way. Great instructions !!
I think these are the most beautiful blocks I have seen in a very long time. Thank you for the tutorial and the inspiration.
Best video for joining I've seen so far. Watched it many times. Thanks.
I've been researching QAYG for years. This is absolutely THE BEST !!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
Oh, man, I really like your way of teaching. I’m a newbie. So many of the ladies have such a singsong voice. Thanks for your matter of fact ways!
Wow!! Thank you. You are a wonderful teacher and I would love to see you make the blocks from the beginning and I would love to see you do the quilting on it 💜
YOu did a fine job, explaining the different methods. I've tried them all, and still working on making the back close to perfect. Thanks!
Great video. Looking forward to more video's and to see you put the squares together. Thank you for sharing your skill and expertise.
Clear instructions and a great technique. Thank you 🥰👏
Thank you nice way to finish a quilt as you go quilt. I like your instructions, easy to follow and be successful in my own project.
best video tutorial on connecting blocks that I have ever watched!....thank you!!!!
Great job of explaining this concept. I have had too many surgeries on my hands and wrists to hand sew. I'm definitely trying this method soon. Thank you.
Great video. Love the giggle!!!
When you are folding that flap on the sew line use washable school glue!! Works like a charm!! Great video, thanks

These ladies are showing the patterns and colors of fabrics. They did a good job. Thank you
Excellent video, thank you. I might do my next quilt that way. You’re very clear and very helpful.
Thank you for the great video on quilt as you go! As a newbie to quilting this may be the way to go rather than trying to quilt a large one!
Thank you so very much! I have wondered how to do this and now I know a great way! You are a very good teacher.
I love QAYG Method but really loved how you joined back first...then front.
You did a great job explaining this. Thank you.

Good job - another option for a quicker finish. Thank you. Folding the front over to meet that line is a good solution to neater stitches on the back.
Great to use up all those random pieces of batting! Love your work!
Great video! Please make more. I'd like to see how you make your quilt as you go blocks from start to finish including trimming.
Wonder tape might be perfect for securing the seam on the front after folding. Great tutorial!
Absolutely love this method.💕💕💕
LOVE LOVE LOVE your teaching in this vid , thanks so much !
Oh my gosh, this is fabulous❣️Thanks so much for this♥️
You do an excellent job of explaining the technique! Please make more videos.

Then do you machine sew from the front?

That’s how I do it as well. To me it’s much easier than having to fold it and hope it’s straight.
Fold the top strip in half before you sew it onto the front. Then when you fold it over to attach the second block it's already folded.
I really like this tutorial! Thank you for sharing your method. I think I will give this a try 😉!!
Love your camera helper! So sweet

Have you any more videos. I looked at your channel and only saw this one. I want/need more🤣🤣🤣. PS. Love the giggles
OK, I have viewed several other ways to QAYG and I believe your method is the BEST !!
First time watching,great job...learned more ways. Thank you
Tevaughn White-Westleigh you’re welcome!

Oh, that was great. Going to do that next time. A big thumbs up!
Thank you this was one of the best explanations of QAYG I’ve seen since I started researching it a month ago! 😍

Great for creating Quilt baby books ❤️
