Hi, Jenny. You did not disappoint again. I simply love the pattern, & how cheerful it make's me feel. I may use 5" squares, & do the math to not have it come out too large. I could drop the large outer border. Then bind it in all the different fabrics in 2 1/2 inch small squares. I may even put on a scalloped border, or picketed even. Thanks Jenny.
I would like to suggest that you finger press the connected squares in opposite directions after sewing a row of squares and then continue the same pattern of right and left throughout the rest of the block so that all of the seams will nest easily. I do have to watch to see if the seam on the bottom gets flipped or not, because of the "bump" on the sewing platform of my machine. FYI ☺️
This is very cute and can be used with multiple color ways. Whenever I have 2 jelly rolls that don't match in width, I take the wider one and cut the whole strips down to 2 1/2" width before I even start subcutting. Thanks.
I was glad to see Jenny trimming those strips to match. I usually end up doing that too & it seems kind of silly but it can make a huge difference. A friend in quilting group used a jelly roll for the first time last winter but didn’t realize about that pinked edge making a difference. By the time we realized what was going on she had to decide whether to rip out a large portion of her quilt or try to adapt. It was a battle all the way through adjusting blocks, trimming some and adding small sashings to others but she got it finished and it looked good. Learning process!
Cool chain piecing technique! Jenny, ❤️ your hair- great cut! You look so happy and healthy. Your Friday videos make my day. This is a great pattern for the Corner Clipper, my fave HST tool.
Natalie's right! Every little sliver adds up, and might mean the difference between matching seams and non-matching seams! I think I will cut two 4.5"x 2.5" rectangles of each colour of the strip instead of four squares of each, just to eliminate a couple of seams in each block ... and have a smidge more fabric in my "crumbs bin". Thanks MSQC team for another winner of a pattern and tutorial !! ~Diana K.., Hamilton , ON (Canada) :-D
I thought the same about cutting longer strips, but I don't think that will work with all four strips. You will need to have partial seams to get that middle white square in if you did all four rectangles. I'd love to know how yours turns out. I'm going to try this too.
@@bobhaws1589, er, Lily (I saw your post☺️), i thought this was a lot of piecing with all of the squares. But, you're right about the partial seam around the center square. Which in the long run, all the squares would be quicker. I did blocks with partial seaming for my grandson's quilt and began to wonder about my sanity.😄. The piecing of all the squares would be easier, and less tedious, to me.
This is very pretty quilt for either a baby or young child; or even someone young at heart! Will have to save my pennies for a few weeks cause I want the specialty ruler set & pattern. TY Jenny Doan for sharing this delightful design.
Hi! I hope you had a happy day! I had a long day sewing in my sewing room today and now I get to sit and hand quilt while I watch your video. I hope you have a joyful week ahead. Thank you for sharing your video, your time and positive energy!
What a fun design & fabrics are so bright/happy too. What a great Easter/spring quilt but wouldn't this look amazing in Christmas or even Birthday themed fabrics? I would definitely need to have a block laid out to look at & still use the unclipped thread pinning trick to keep the order correct & check it a lot, a lot. Well worth the effort though. Thank You Jenny/ MSQC for another great quilt tutorial :)
HI Jenny thankyou for showing how to make this beautiful bright happy quilt 🥰 l so love watching your videos you always put a smile on my face 😊. 🌼Daisy Dale from downunder 🐨 🦘 🇦🇺 .
... even with all these small pieces, Jenny made this seem so easy - with "one" 1 block at a time assembly. Love it - would even like to attempt this using a 5" base
You could start with a layer cake collection and cut it into 5-inch squares. You might have enough blocks for 2 quilts! That would be fun for twins! It would also require a bit of math to figure out the yardage for the background fabric. I'm hoping that you will try out your idea, it sounds great!
@@judithburke1539 ... that would definitely work. When my budget allows, I have been buying layer cakes and charms (2 packs per fabric line each time) for a few months now. Fun, Fun, Fun 😊
Yes, Funny I was thinking of using bigger squares too. I also thought, if it looks too big before the outer border is on, this pattern would still look just as good without the purple border. Maybe a scalloped, or picketed finished edge would be nice. Or sewing the binding in the smaller 2 1/2 squares of different colored fabrics.
So many pieces yet you showed how easily it will come together. Love the cute "Chuck the Duck" quilting. Miss seeing him at the beginning of the tutorials. He should make a return visit 😉
I really like this. Am wondering if one could use the mini charm packs. I haven't seen any mixed solid ones though. Either way, I'd love to have one of these cheerful quilts.
I will answer my post regarding using the mini charm packs. One would have to have a ton of mini charms to get the same effect of this quilt. Jenny knows what she's doing and I need to just listen to her. It takes 8 mini packs to equal 1 charm pack, so I can only imagine how many it would take to equal 2 Jelly Rolls. To get that size of quilt it's much smarter to do it the way Jenny did; and more economical. I guess my brain got lazy there! Always follow Jenny's instructions.☺
Hi Jenny. I love this quilt pattern. It looks complicated but isn’t. Several of us ladies in my church our going to start sewing Quilts of Valor, and several of the ladies are not experienced. This is the perfect block for them, and it would be beautiful in red whit and blue prints. ❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Jenny, I have been watching your videos from 5 years forward. I love them and you have taught me so much. Tell me when is a scant quarter is used versus a true quarter inch? 🤪
An interesting side note - you can make 2.5” HSTs from 2.5” strips without all the waste of cutting off those small triangles by using the strip tube method. I wonder how many more HSTs you would end up with. I will have to go figure it out! 😃
@@MrsBobsMom I will have to Google that I don't think I have come across that method. Do you cut the strip on the bias? or is this your method, ua-cam.com/video/54yF2kVYTWc/v-deo.html
@@jo-annefalconer6280 Yes, I think that’s the same method. Just sew two strips together with a 1/4” seam on both long edges to make a tube. I use the Strip Tube Ruler - put the 2.5” line on one of the seams and cut. If you use a different ruler, you need to check which line to use based on the ruler.
Sometimes when making half s triangles, you sew one 1/4 inch to each side of the line. Sometimes you sew right on that line. Sometimes you sew all around the block, cut 6 times or? I’m having trouble wrapping my brain around this.
There are about 8 different ways to make HST's, which you choose can depend on how many of the same unit you need, if it's a totally scrappy look quilt, you'd cut individual squares but if you want lots of HST's that use identical fabric, the easy 8/16 method of triangle paper works well. Also it's your own preference. Try a few and see which you prefer.
I recently purchased a roll of Navy theme 2 1/2” strips from MSQC, and I am considering adding red strips also. Perhaps w a white background fabric. And even a gold-ish fabric, for a ‘valor’ theme, or Red-White-Blue theme, For an amazing grandson! My excitement builds.
Thanks for telling me the yardage of a jelly roll. My brain simply won't do the maths and there is never a pencil and paper together in te same spot. Then I forgot what I wanted to work out. Too much sewing to do.
I WILL ASK ONCE MORE IN THE HOPE THAT SOMEONE WILL ANSWER MY QUESTION. A FEW MONTHS AGO JENNY MADE A GIANT STAR QUILT USING A LAYER CAKE. I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THIS QUILT BUT CANNOT FIND THE TUTORIAL. T.I.A. HAS THIS VIDEO BEEN REMOVED? PUT ME OUT OF MY MISERY PLEASE!.
I ‘finger press’ as I go to help the seams lay flat as I go, making 1 row goes 1 way and the next goes opposite so the seams will nest. I’m inspired to use that triangle!
Why did you just make the pattern with a 2 1/2” x 4 1/2” strip instead of sewing two - 2 1/2 squares together for the ribbon?
I am not sure thank you for catching that.
Здравствуйте. Я с Украины. Спасибо

I love the way the squares are linked together by a thread - it seems to help the sewing of the block ! Always learning new things from Jenny!

I have some fabulous ombré fabrics I’m going to use to do this. Been waiting for the perfect pattern. Thanks Jennie!
That quilt makes me happy! 🤩 Great tutorial, thank you Jenny🥰

Interesting, I never thought about the amount of yardage in a pre cut! Is there a chart for those?
I've seen one but not sure if it's on their site. Anyhow can google it. Happy sewing!
👍👏🥰🌸🇦🇺Thank you Jenny love your teaching method
Hi Jenny, I have never seen the technique of making a ribbon point on a 2 1/2” square. Thank you so much, I cannot wait to give this a try! 🥰 Chris
PS This quilt turned out so nice 😄🥰thank you for sharing, 🥰 Chris
I love this, I think it would be super fantastic in some Lori Holt fabric. Ooh, or Tula Pink!
YES!! Tula Pink would be AMAZING!!
Imagine this using Christmas fabric - so many options for all holidays.
I think you could make some real cute placemats with this pattern. I have to make small projects because I live in a VERY small apartment.
This is so gorgeous, bright and cheerful. A "must make" quilt.🥰🪡🧵

Very nice quilt. As a new quilter, can anyone tell me how you know whether to use clearly perfect slotted trimmer A or B?
They come as a set and A has the whole sizes and B has the half sizes
What a cute playful quilt. I can see it made for a baby, young child teenager and thinking in Christmas prints as well. Thanks for sharing.👍❤️😊

It would also look nice doing a border with just the points if you see what I mean.
This is such a fun quilt. Thank you Jenny!
seams quick and easy to sew. very cute and i love the quilting. chuck is always cute
Love this block, Jenny makes it so easy with one at a time, which is also how I would have to do it.
For whatever reason this particular one said "buy me"...so I listened, lol.
Great tutorial on this quilt. Looks beautiful and boy do I have 2.5" squares in my life. LOL I'm a scrap quilter by heart..
Hello Jackie,how are you hope you’re doing well

I love your quilt tutorials. I learn by visual and have trouble understanding patterns. So happy that you give all the cutting measurements also.
I completely agree. Visuals are the best.
Why not make the long same color 1 pc instead of 2 squares?
I thought that at first but if you do that, you would end up with y seams where the white square gets added in the middle.
Yes Linda is right…. You can do that for sure, but it does make a y seam.
Jenny, I have been watching your videos from 5 years forward. I love them and you have taught me so much. Tell me when is a scant quarter is used versus a true quarter inch? 🤪
I had to buy the download immediately. I can’t wait to make this one. I love all MSQC patterns. Just love them.
Thank you So much for the tutorial. A gorgeous that is easy to make.
Hola me encanta lo que hacen una maravilla! !
Pena que no lo subtitulen al español!!

True but I am sure your resulting squares would end up smaller, you would need to double check that.
@@jo-annefalconer6280 No, they actually do come out 2.5 inches, but they have bias edges so you have to be more careful to not stretch them.

love this quilt pattern, have a Grandchild on the way later this year would look pretty in neutrals as well!😀
🇵🇦👏🏼 Excellenteeee! ...Y no lo sabía🤔tome dato del libro mencionado, lo compraré 🇵🇦👏🏼🇵🇦👏🏼

Love the method of triangle squares
Sometimes when making half s triangles, you sew one 1/4 inch to each side of the line. Sometimes you sew right on that line. Sometimes you sew all around the block, cut 6 times or? I’m having trouble wrapping my brain around this.
It all has to do with the size I am trying to make. Half square triangles can be made a variety of ways. I use different ways to be less wasteful.

Olá, gosto muito de seus trabalhos. Um abraço 🌺
Great size on this quilt! A little bit bigger border makes it an official queen size! Love it!!
Such a pretty quilt. I was surprised not to hear the opening music & quack on this tutorial! Thanks for sharing Jenny! ❤️
Thanks for the pretty quilt.
I also missed the opening music and quack. I sure hope it's not a permanent thing!
Very cute block♥️🇦🇺

Thanks for the tutorial! This is another of your gorgeous quilts ! You make it so easy for us ! 🌺🌸
Super cool quilt, l’d change out the hot pink border though
I can't help thinking that this would be great in Christmas colors 🙂
pure magic Jenny! love this.
I'm totally in love with this quilt!
It’s a beautiful quilt Jenny.
What a sweet design! Thank you!
I so enjoy learning your quilts. A big thank you to you 🌸💗
OMG Ms Jenny this is my favorite by far!!!! Thank you 💚
Love this quilt and chuck the duck long arm pattern.....quack
Thank you for the tip for the twisted seams - try as I might I always end up with one! now I know what to do!
Absolutely gorgeous ❤
Thanks for telling me the yardage of a jelly roll. My brain simply won't do the maths and there is never a pencil and paper together in te same spot. Then I forgot what I wanted to work out. Too much sewing to do.
I WILL ASK ONCE MORE IN THE HOPE THAT SOMEONE WILL ANSWER MY QUESTION.
A FEW MONTHS AGO JENNY MADE A GIANT STAR QUILT USING A LAYER CAKE. I WOULD
LIKE TO MAKE THIS QUILT BUT CANNOT FIND THE TUTORIAL. T.I.A. HAS THIS VIDEO BEEN REMOVED? PUT ME OUT OF MY MISERY PLEASE!.
I wonder if there was enough 2” squares to make a baby quilt size. I like the border, but I like getting a bonus quilt as well.
Gorgeous I want to buy one not make it
Really a cute pattern & looks great but that's sure a lot of 2 1/2" squares!
Brilliant! I love it
Gracious pattern!!!
So beautiful Jenny 💜
Such a fun quilt. ❤️
What a great use of those jelly rolls! Thanks 😊

Inspirational.. Love it! 🌸
Jenny I luv your designs but for me personally too much cutting I love the quilt. But not for me It’s too much cutting. Beautiful quilt
Beautiful colors!
So what you're going to need is you're going to need... Very pretty quilt.
Very pretty quilt.
So pretty! Thank you.
I 🤩 how quickly you sew!!! Great tips! Thank you.
Thank you so much. ❤️
Love this pattern. You explain everything so well. Enjoy watching you and your girls. Thank you.
Oh Jenny. This is wonderful. I love how you make everything so easy and logical! Thanks again for an inspiring tutorial.
Hello Debra how are you
My blue & yellow quilt had over 1200 blocks at 2.5 inches each. It took time, results was stunning!
