    I watched your video and it was so simple I decided to give it a try! I am new to quilting but I love to do embroidery and sew things for my children. All my daughters are too old for mom to make them clothes but I make shorts for my son and he likes to help me out (he is 2 1/2)! I want to make all 5 of my children a quilt so that they will always have something made by me that they will snuggle up to to remember me by when I’m no longer with them. So I did this one as my first true quilt top for my third daughter! She is a Harry Potter fan and so we got some HP fat quarters and followed your video! It took a couple of hours to stitch it all together but she absolutely loves it! I have a backing for it but I want to make all 4 of my girls a quilt top before I tackle the quilting. I love watching your videos! As I am currently out with Covid and not doing well your videos are giving me something to look forward to as I am ready to be better and start on the next quilt! My 4th daughter wants me to video her quilt making and share it on UA-cam the way you do as she wants me to do that with them all so she can say she has a UA-cam channel! Maybe I will not sure. Please make more videos!

    • @aprilscraftroom

      Hi
      Thank you so much for your kind words.. My oldest daughter is a HARRY POTTER FAN too ...

      I am so sorry to hear that you have COVID and please know I will be praying for your healing.

    When chain piecing like that you can leave them connected the whole time. All you have to do is connect the last piece and since the whole block is somewhat connected, it would be easy to connect the rows and nest accordingly

    If you leave it attached at the first seams you sewed and left it attached when you put on the third seam of row, then you just have to flip the rows together and sew them to each other! All of the junctions are still connected and it’s harder to make a mistake in the piecing. Also,if you leave you’re sewing mid block, you have no problem at any time in figuring out where you were.

      Amazingly enough the design board was my husband's idea. We took foam insulation and covered it with wood grain flannel and that is my wall. Kudos to him for coming up with the idea. :-). Thank you for watching.

    How did you decide how to stack your fabrics so you got a pleasing design? Did you put all of the brights together etc?

      I just got lucky. Of course it was hard to mess up with that particular group of fabrics since they all coordinated together. Thank you for watching.

    Do you ever iron your fabric before you start cutting your fabric. I like to start with a flat fabric for more exact cuts!!

    • @aprilscraftroom
      @aprilscraftroom  3 роки тому +1

      I do sometimes if there is a big wrinkle but usually I can smooth the fabric out enough to suit me. I know my cuts are probably not at precise but I am on limited time so that is one of the short cuts I take. Thank you for watching and commenting. 😀

    2. How big is your 4x4 top?
    Thank you!

    • @aprilscraftroom
      @aprilscraftroom  3 роки тому

      Try this site and see if it works: tinyorchardquilts.com/. Scroll down to the bottom and you should see the plaid pattern. It took 16 fat quarters. My 4 x 4 top? I'm not sure what you're asking. So sorry - I am sure I should know. LOL. Thank you for watching.

      I answered my own question when you wrote back. The 4x4, I meant 4 blocks wide x 4 blocks down.
      That would mean you use 16 fat Quarters. Right!?

      Hi Carol
      The design board is a thick craft board covered in flannel fabric and mounted on the studs of my unfinished basement that my husband hung on the studs. It was all his idea!

      I do! You have to make sure the cut out is far enough back. The back is sticky but easy to remove. I put it down and all of the sudden my fabric wasn’t going anywhere while I was pressing the pedal. I finally figured out my mat was over the back of the feed dogs preventing them from grabbing. LOL
