The Scrap Challenge Continues! Part Two - the Terry Quilt with my friends Jan and Jayne

- A few weeks ago I began this lovely project with my friends Jan and Jayne. We started to make a Wedding Present Quilt using that wonderful scrappy technique I learned from Terry Rowland and so I call them 'Terry Blocks'!
They have been busy and I have been busy, but in-between times we have all been working on this quilt and today I will take you to their home to carry on with the next stages of this quilt. It is going to be a long process, but none of us are in a hurry to get this finished!
Enjoy this episode and check back for more updates in the future. I have created a playlist and you will find the last episode and all future one right here -

There's just something so soothing and comfortable about the English countryside and homes. What a delight to be a part of this project. Thank you Kate.
I loved this video. It actually warmed my heart to see friends having such a lovely day together. Thank you for sharing your life with us, Kate. I wish you have many, many more happy days❤
Nothing is better than sewing and sharing with friends. Thanks for the video.
Love watching while knitting or spinning...today just watching as I am recovering from Covid, at 72 years old!!! I have co.mented in past that I LOVE your curtains ❤❤❤
Thanks, Kate for letting us come along with you on your visit with your friends! I can tell that you all had a lovely time! Looking forward to keeping up with the next steps in this quilt's process! 🙂
I can't help but notice that two very generous windows let in all this natural light. What a wonderful bonus.
What a fabulous production line spread over two homes, keeping everyone involved.
I always forget that you drive on the opposite side of the road. It's a little stratling to see a vehicle heading towards you. What a lovely way to spend the day!!
So in LOVE with the Friendship processing …..especially the meal sharing aspect which goes to the heart of home…..
What a lovely visit with your friends. Thank you for taking us along!
It's always such a joy being in your home and sewing with you, Kate. Love the process the three of you have set up and love your gloriously blue VW.
How lucky they are to have you in their home!!! What a gift!! ❤❤❤
Thanks, Kate! What a glorious celebration of friendship! I adore your coat and love Jane’s hexi blanket ❤
Oh Kate, you have just made my day! “I don’t like quick finishes, just thoughtful ones”…..I am on my 3rd year of a queen sized quilt & you have inspired me to hand quilt it 🥰 May be a while yet before it’s finished 😉
Enjoyed watching all 3 of you working together-each with her own little “job”!
You are the best person to help your friends enjoy the process of making a quilt. Can’t wait for the next instalment of putting this quilt together 😊❤.
Such a beautiful home that Jan and Jane have and I enjoyed hearing where the fabric came from in the beautiful quilt. Thank you for sharing 😊
What a wonderful idea to do while spending time with your friends.
What a lovely, peaceful video. Thoroughly enjoyed meeting your friends “virtually” and seeing the lovely hexagon quilt.😍
I really enjoyed this episode, I think Jan and Jane’s home is so nice and cozy. Thank you for inviting me along. Have a great week. ❤
So great that friends can work together on a wonderful project. Love your jacket, Kate.
Ah, what a nice way to visit, craft and have a meal with friends. Thank you for taking us along.
Love your red refrigerator ladies . What a nice memory epp quilt. This is called teamwork. Keep going and you'll be done in no time.
I enjoyed very much the visit to your friends,thank you for taking us along.
By watching this, I thought "the road is the goal ", take your time and enjoy the journey.
That was super seeing your lovely friends. Thank you all and the dogs are so sweet.
Slow processes make creative treasures ✂️🧵🪡
How delightful - soup, cheese scones, quilting and friends to share it all with. ❤
Thank you Kate for sharing your life and friends with me….and others..love from across the Pond Newfoundland…
How nice to have friends sewing together.
nice to meet you too...bettyanne from NM LOL
This is one of the best videos. I love the way the 3 of you are working together. 840 squares, yikes! Can't wait to see the design process.
They are so lucky to have you as a friend. I like their color choices.❤
Now that's what you call great team work!! ☺️
What a wonderful way to spend your time with them both,I would just love a project like that ,to see how different other people put colors together…
As always this video was just right. What a lovely way to spend time with friends!
Oh heavens! Quirky women 'of a certain age' . . . I am deffo in that category . . . keep up the good work ladies!
I always feel at home with you and your friends and family. ❤
I remember the first video 😃 So nice to find out how things are going. What fun and inspiring.
Thank you so much.
Hello Kate, this was such a fun video to watch, as they all are. Your visit to Jan and Jane's looked like fun. I love watching your drives through your beautiful countryside. Their quilt blocks are coming along quite nicely. Have a wonderful day. Take care. ❤
Thanks, Kate for taking us on a lovely car journey and to visit your friends. Looking forward to next exciting video.!
Loved the visit with your friends and their lovely dogs. They have a lovely homey house. Thanks to all of you for sharing.
I enjoyed you sharing the time you spent with your friends. I shared sewing time
with my daughter but she passed away in 2020, really miss the sharing time.
Lovely visit and a wonderful way to save pieces of fabric that mean something. GOD Bless.
What a lovely day spent with friends. I got excited when we went to the car, haha. I loved it, back in the day, when you would take us on road trips. I just about lost it when you met the big truck. It was on the wrong side of the road for just a moment. Made me chuckle. Enjoy the project. See you on the next one.
Jan and Jane’s home is so cozy and colorful!! Thanks for sharing, love the dogs!! 🧵🪡✂️💕👍🏻
Yay I have my morning cuppa here in Australia and its time to relax and watch my favourite content creator. Thanks for all the work you do Kate and Anna.💚💛
Love the team work and the progress of their quilt.
Team work makes the dream work!😃 Lovely friendships...🥰
I love the bright colors they’re pairing!
Hello Kate. It is so nice to see friends together doing a quilting project together. I love the tiny blocks. I do not have quilting buddies, that is reason I am envious of you three. It is funny how many of you quilters have the new irons. I have it on my Christmas list for this year. Have a great wonderful time with your friends. Can’t wait to see it finished. Thank you.
what a lovely idea for them both to be so involved in the making of theit special quilt...loving it
Thanks Kate for another great post. Last month I made patchwork kitchen curtains as your own curtains were so inspirational to me. I agree with your comments about the process, my mantra is respect the process and in that way I never feel rushed even when on a big project.
What a calming afternoon! Love the work & the soup & scones!
Lovely collaboration. I enjoyed the story about the hexie quilt. ❤
Love this time with friends. Reminds me that I do not have to go "gung ho!" to the end of a project. You can do it in bits and pieces - and - I like having numerous projects going on at once. My family always says, why do you have more than one started? My response is, it's not about the finish......it's about the process - the journey. BTW - I LOVE Jan and Jayne's red refridgerator! How glorious!!
Thank you for the little bonus trip. 😊
Awesome job ladies! Keep up the excellent work! I can’t wait to see how it turns out!
Love that peaceful music.
It always tickles me when I see my Havila-suitcase scraps in the project you’re working on. Keeps you close. 😊
Love your videos. Looking forward to the next one.
So enjoyed your video. It was so interesting to see into another part of the world and the fun you are having with your friends and the making of the quilt. That is definitely team work. The hexagon quilt was beautiful and so many memories sewn in. Thank you
How fun to be able to sew with friends! None of my friends are sewists!
Thank you again for another wonderful video. 🧵🪡♥️
Wonderful progress you’re all making on this quilt, loved the border terrier-Doris! I’ve got a 16yr old Cairn terrier, all the way down here in NZ.
Love their personality disorders, you have to be terrier friendly humans for these doggies. They look so cute! But they’re really devils in disguise. Great sense of humour, they have, and they keep you on your toes. Good to see Kate’s Merlin coat is still alive and well!
Having just gained a Yorkshire Terrier whose 8.. I agree they are devil's in disguise! He's a real cutie but knows how to rule the house already!
I love all the big windows in their home!
My mom used a Be-ro book waaaaay back! Great baking. I love your friends' hospitality.
For a moment there I was wondering how you were going to drive with a pot in your lap, then remembered y'all sit on the other side! 😂
😂😂
Very enjoyable video. 😊
When I visited in England, I had to laugh at myself several times for trying to get into the wrong side of the car! 😂😂😂
Lol… I was thinking the same thing!😂
I thought so myself 😂
A lovely visit to Jayne & Jan's. Look forward to more videos about their "Terry" quilt. (Yum, homemade soups are the best!)
A wonderful production line plan. Can’t wait to see the next process on the design wall 🥰
What a great time with friends.
'Santa can hear you...' 🥰
Hurray!! I have been anxiously waiting for an update on Jan and Jane’s quilt. 🤩
How fun to get to go on a field trip with you! Thank you for sharing that!
Oh Kate I’ve got that little book I got it when clearing out my mums house after she died, I don’t bake but I might just give it a try now that you have reminded me I have it thanks for that 💕
Funny seeing the hexagon quilt. I started one when I was 18 and finished it in my 50s. It was my first quilt. I have made dozens since then.
I always love your vids! Your friends are lovely and I look forward to seeing their quilt develop. 🦌💌👍🪡
Love enjoying your videos, Kate!
I really enjoyed this video! It was really fun to see you with the two friends and the pups. Man, that naan looked so good!
This is such a fun collaboration!
Yes, I am enjoying visiting a Scottish home as if I was right there. Had to go fix a pot of tea and have a gluten-free biscuit.
Sending Love to all of you wish I were there learning ❤❤❤
I love your sewing room, what a great view.
Please tell your friend, the one with the glorious red hair , that I am so jealous ! Her hair is so beautiful..
Aah BeRo! I have mine from the 70’s. I live in the Netherlands and even bought a scale with pounds and ounces in it! Lovely episode!
Mine too!
It belonged to my mother originally, I "borrowed" it for the Christmas cake recipe.
It came with me when I moved to Germany in 1988!
My mam passed away 14 years ago, I always think of her every time I get the book out..which is quite often, and my own kids used it too to make their first bakes .
It's falling to bits, but I 'd never part with it!
Cannot wait to see them on the design board
Love it! I live in Chesapeake, VA in the USA and live watching you.
This is brilliant!! X
Rotary cutter tip: sometimes it’s not the blade that’s dull, it’s the mat that’s not compatible with these types of rotary cutters. My friend Joanne found a huge mat somewhere for a great price. When I tried cutting my strips with my sharp new Olfa blade, it would not cut smoothly if at all (it would sort of “skip”). I swapped out the mat with my own quilting cutting mat, no problems. Always check before thinking it’s your blade that’s dull.
A pink iron is my next buy!!
Love the process and friends
Thankyou Kate some times it’s nice just to relax with friends and do your quilting slow I do think you learn just the same
How nice! love all the creating you do
Wonderful visit ❤
I was looking forward to this update I am doing the same here 300 made so far this inspires me to make more as I had put it aside for awhile so relaxing to watch you and your friends .
beautiful project ❤️
It is so nice of you to help teach them. You look like you are enjoying it. I still have trouble remembering that you get in on the right hand side of the car (and drive on the left hand side of the road).
You guys are awesome
Really enjoyed this video ❤️ thank you
You meant trim to 4 inches and finish at 3 and a half inches. That's okay. You ladies make a great team. Can't wait to see the finished quilt.
Caught that also!
Love your home views and videos! My sister belonged to a "quilting circle" for years. Their finished product, usually one, or two per year, would be raffled-off to raise funds for a local hospice. I love the ebb and flow of skills and friends. Oh, and Happy Autumn!
Fascinating! I have two border terriers called Annie and Betty
A lovely friendly creative video. Thank you Kate, Jan, Jane and hounds.
