- In this video I am using the fabric I bought in the Heather Ross Studio Sale recently. The colours and patterns are really colourful and playful! This is one of the easiest blocks to construct and makes a very striking quilt.
I will be finishing this one over on Patreon and you can find out more about that here.

Oh Kate it’s not that we are not interested in patreon it is just that most of us are on a tight budget. ❤
My thoughts also and when she starts something and just teases me that it will be finished on patreon I feel like a kid in school left out because I could not do a special school trip like the richer kids. I wish she would finish the project.
@@traceyshoun1005 When I started watching Kate's vlog when it started it was just a chat as Kate did whatever she was doing at the time, no planning, no special equipment, simple and fun. I know the channel has really grown but it's now seeming to be a business. No worries, things change that's life and it's a huge success for Kate in which I'm happy for her, I just content myself with rewatching the old vlogs, I enjoy what I watch and have just been watching when Sadie had her kittens. After 2 earthquakes and covid over the last 10 years I'm quite happy watching vlogs that make me smile.
@@traceyshoun1005I feel the same. I can’t justify a Patreon payment. My electricity bill looms and we’ve been notified of a threefold increase. My budget (😂) will be devastated. It’s already restricted because I’m on a pension and I consider myself lucky. There is no other income 😢
By all means use Patreon but stop dangling projects in front of us that we won’t see the ending of because we’re broke. Unwitting discrimination perhaps? Maybe a warning at the beginning that it’s a Patreon project then it’s a choice before watching not a disappointment at the end. Perception of choice works for me.
I have to say that sponsorship ads really annoy me too. Why are creators having to do the job for the advertisers? I know the answer but it doesn’t annoy me any less. More work for creators to do. Kate, if you had the right sponsorship would you say yes?
Rant over. I need a cuppa after all that. 🫖 pass it round.
I am also on a tight budget but I don’t buy newspapers or magazine so patreon is my monthly pleasure and treat and for me it is a really worthwhile spend. I’d rather have that to look forward to than spend my little bit spare money on chocolate or wine but each to their own.
I totally support what you are expressing here. Kate's channel has become a business. It is being run like a business. Patrons are supporting Kate's lifestyle. You are also supporting her paying her family to help her as she says in her video. If that is what you are comfortable doing then go for it. Unfortunately what Kate is doing is employing a tried and tested marketing technique. She teases viewers with a taste of something but saves the meaty bit for those who pay. Her head has been turned by the call of the mighty dollar. Her early videos were just lovely where she took you and her iPad around the garden, out to the lake with Eileen, checking on the bees all before sitting down for a bit of quilting or spinning. These were organic, real world videos that required no fancy equipment. All that was required was a simple editing app and her time which she was freely giving anyway. I have unsubscribed from so many channels fir exactly the same issues. It is very disappointing as the Lime green sofa is such a welcoming visual picture. I will miss it.
I'm looking your film without sound, because I'm sitting near my mother, 95 years old, very very ill. Your UA-cam give me even without sound, peace of mind. Love for all of you.
that's lovely! thank you xxx I hope your Mum is content and comfortable. she will appreciate you very much I know xxx
Like so many people I am on a fixed income. For me I became a patron to be able to thank Kate in a small way for all the joy her videos have given me. I am grateful for her taking the time to share her life with us. She and her family are a breath of fresh air in this crazy world. Peace and kindness to all.
Just a (long-winded) note from a woman in Mississippi, US, who's had more than one tearful conversation with her husband and close friends about how much Kate and this channel mean to her. I'm that woman, of course. I'm thankful I'm able to be a support to you by purchasing from your shop now and then and by subscribing on Patreon. I would do it for absolutely zero additional content by the way - you mean just that much to me (however I do enjoy everything you post there). I won't go into the tragedies and difficulties your videos have helped me through, but suffice it to say you've helped me keep my sanity. And I want to do all I can to help you continue in this ministry, because that is exactly what it is. You have been, and continue to be, a blessing to so many in so many ways. Thank you, Kate ❤️
What a wonderful message! Thank you so very much!!!! Xxxxx
There are also viewers like me Kate who are on universal credit, through no fault of our own. I feel very guilty that I can’t even afford to buy myself a coffee but I wish your channel all the best, and I enjoy watching every single one you post xx
thank you very much for that lovely attitude. All these UA-cam videos are free to watch - right back over 6 years and I value your support very much- it is very kind of you to say that xxx
Thank you for explaining how easy a Louis 16 block is to make! I love what you have done. I would encourage people to join patreon with Kate. I seem to never get enough time visiting on the lime green sofa, where you never meet a stranger...we are all friends...thanks to Kate!
Just found you and I am binge watching all your videos while basting EPP squares. I’m 45, children are grown, Im medically retired, spend my days with my little dog cooking baking, gardening, sewing, crocheting and aiming for a peaceful life, your channel just hits the spot for me. Love everything you do ❤️
Oh Kate, what a beautiful breath of fresh air. In a world in torment, it is wonderful to be able to sit on your lime green sofa and watch you create a beautiful quilt for someone in need. You are so kind. More power to your elbow! ❤👍from Somerset
I agree @elizabethamis9376! Just lovely 😊
I enjoyed this video. It’s fine if patreon supporters get extra content. I appreciate that there aren’t any advertisements interrupting the content on this channel. UA-cam ads have become increasingly annoying on some other channels that I watch.
I love watching you ❤ I haven't been able to sew much during past 2 years due to a sick grandchild. But that beautiful 2 yr old granddaughter just received a kidney transplant last month!!!! I hope to start sewing again. Thank you for fulfilling my crafting needs till I can do so!!!! 😊❤
I’m so happy for your granddaughter. I wish her healthy days ahead.
Wishing your granddaughter many, many happy and healthy years ahead. 🌷
I hope all is well with your granddaughter xxx
Hello my friend! I loss my mom when I was 10 and my dad recently so I totally understand. Your videos bring me comfort.
thank you xxx take care xxx
What a smashing quick quilt Kate, love the colours, such a joy. So kind that you do quilts for Linus.❤
Once I have some medical debt paid off, I will be joining your Patreon page! I absolutely love your videos! So relaxing and inspiring!!!
I've been watching you from my seat on the Lime Green Sofa since 2019. Late that year, my Mom died. And working in my sewing studio, often with my 11 year old daughter by my side, watching your videos in your sweet, conversational style really was the soothing balm I needed. At first my daughter couldn't understand what I liked about it. Then, slowly she began to appreciate it too. Anyway, when the pandemic befell us a few months later, your "Take Care" videos were a precious lifeline. We have a rich full life here. But getting that daily dose of care and calm from your side of the Atlantic helped me cope with how many of our loved ones, and my in-laws, were facing this thing in the UK. When you initiated Patreon, I joined at the $5 level. I don't think I've ever accessed the content (Patreon has been hard to figure out and I'm a smart lady). But I've never really cared. What you do on UA-cam, though it's changed since those early days, has always been enough for me and the Patreon was a way of giving back. That won't change. But this video has inspired me to go and see if I can figure out how to watch some of the videos over there. The clips of you working with your daughter remind me of working with mine. So, as always, thank you for all that you do. What you put out into the world is sorely needed.
Dear Kate, I think many of us support you on Patreon just because we enjoy your content - not really expecting anything in return. So anything you give us is extra, though much appreciated. We would support you regardless.
Thank you so much xxx
I’m outside on my side porch Knitting and enjoying your video!! My day is never complete until I’ve watched one of your videos!! Please always know how much u are loved!! You’re such a blessing😊
I watch you mainly for your voice. I find your voice so soothing and I can imagine how comforting it would have been to have you as a friend when I was younger and able to do all those things that you do. I did do a lot of them but never had the time to really enjoy them. You are lovely.
OMG!!!! the "family" surprise for Kate on Patreon today was so, so special. Brilliant, actually beyond Brilliant. Well deserved Kate!!!!, know you will enjoy "it" each & every day.
Вы невероятная! Я залипла на Ваших видео, хотя далека от темы вышивки и квилтинга. От Ваших репортажей я получаю удивительное чувство тепла, уюта, комфорта. Спасибо Вам огромное за минуты счастья!!! 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
The quilt looks lovely - so colourful and lively.
I support a number of creators on Patreon. I do it to support them and not for a reward as such. But I like really good content and have to say that your Patreon channel is a joy and I get a lot from it. Rock on, Kate! ❤
Thank you so much for saying that - I really appreciate you - this is why I support people on Patreon - because I appreciate them - and so thank YOU!!!
This is so interesting and relaxing. Better than a prescription of antidepressants xxx
You were my second sub on patreon, and I still only have two. You're worth subs and I wholeheartedly believe that I get more than I pay for. I'm here (and there) to encourage you to do what you do, because it's meaningful to me. You are warm and kind, you teach us how to quilt, and you inspire me with your gardens and your family. Also, these quilts are adorable!
Thank you so much! I think you will enjoy tonight's video! you are very kind xxx
As a content creator in a (what seems to be) previous life, I applaud you sticking to your inherent beliefs, Kate. It’s very easy to get caught up in the novelty of sponsorships and review items. I did. Then one day I just couldn’t do it anymore and I felt ashamed that I had. The promotion of needless spending and consumerism is society’s downfall. Patreon may seem unfair to some viewers, but the Kate who started the channel can sleep at night, knowing her income came from her work, not from promoting the unsustainable. Or at least that’s my take and 2 cents. 💚 to all! Support the creators, not the sponsors 📢 😊
Thank you so much! xxx
Wow whoever receives this beautiful quilt will be absolutely covered in SMILES, it is such a cheerful creation ! Much love from Auckland, New Zealand
I second that also from Auckland New Zealand
you two should get together! xxx
Another glorious “Kate quilt.” Your natural sense for design, color and balance is great. You make it look so easy! ❤
Whaooo Kate you did it awesome 👍🏼 I adore your help ❤️ don't mind some critics because not everyone is to like what we are doing.I hope we just explore our God hovered gifts, which anyone received.I am also one of the beginner Quilter and know what is best for me.Keep up the good work ❤❤❤❤❤
That's a very pretty quilt, and you donated to a very good charity. Thank you.
Had a rough day and found you and cheered right up enough to go sew something , thank you !!
I love the fabrics and colors you use in your quilts. They"re so bright and cheerful. What a delight to snuggle under.
Kate you’ve inspired me to make the Saint Louis 16 patch. I have a lot of left over jelly roll strips and never knew what to do with them. You bring such joy to the world. Thank you.
What a gorgeous quilt! I don't worry about things that are directional (unless it's a wallhanging) - I figure we're looking at quilts from many different angles, depending on how we're snuggled up in it! 🥰 Thank you as always Kate - and you provide the BEST Patreon content! xxx
I am so happy to be a Patreon, I appreciated all that you do, and love all of your extra content. Thanks! ❤️
thank you! I'm really grateful to you for saying that! xxx
I love how you make this quilt block by block… it really is about the journey :)
Love this St. Louis 16Patch and how simple it is to put together. There is one special child out there who will love your quilt. Thank you for reminding us to give back. ❤
I truly understand the twin desires to honor those we love/have loved, as well as to be of service to those in need - to respond in a caring way to others. Thank you for inspiring others - in a kind and subtle way - to do and be the same.
Thank you, Kate, for your excellent videos. I'm a relatively new viewer to your channel and find it so informative. I'm a patron to another channel and have just become one to yours as well. I'm appreciative that I have the means to support you and others to continue producing this content.❤❤❤❤
Heather Ross fabric designs are so fantastic! I am in the middle of a pumpkin quilt and am using a few fussy-cut pieces from a Heather Ross print! And I think I’ve mentioned before, but Anna Maria Horner lives right here in my town (I don’t know her personally, but still--fun fact)! 🧵🪡✂️💕
I love fabrics with lots of things to look at. I hope this quilt gives a child many happy hours finding all the designs. You are so generous with the work you put out, it is appreciated 🙂
Your instructions are priceless but please accept this small token of appreciation!
wow! thank you so very much! that is really kind! take care, thank you and love, Kate xxx
Thank you, Kate! I love the quilt, and what a wonderful cause it is going to! I did not realize how easy it was to make, and I’ll definitely give it a go. I spent the weekend with my granddaughter, sharing mini strawberry cheesecakes and a delightful lavender tea - a first for me. As I go through my material, looking for interesting combinations, I will pass the cheesecake and tea along the lime green sofa to all of our friends. Enjoy them, and have a wonderful September everyone!
Thank you Kate for explaining what a patron is.
Just as we subscribe to certain streaming programs, patron would be similar to a subscription.
You explained that very well😊.
thank you! that its lovely to hear! xxx
Kate, Now I like your quilting in 16 blocks and love how your patreon works! You are enjoyable to watch your life and crafts- love being with you at your home! Thank you- Sandra Myer!
Thank you Kate… I love watching your videos ❤
Hi Kate from Oz. One more amazing quilt. I made the Kaffe seed packet quilt. The colours are amazing. The problem is every time you make something beautiful it makes me want to make it too. I have hexagon quilt on the go and the scrap quilt as well . My daughter says to me”Mum please finished one before you start another. “ I love your videos so much. My beautiful Son died of cancer and when I have my very bad days I start quilting and turn on your videos. It does help a bit. Are we going to see Anna’s lovely bright quilt. All my family loves Anna. She is a lovely lovely person. Take care Kate. keep well.😊❤
oh - thank you for this! Anna and I have been filming today for the next in her quilt series - I hope you enjoy it. Take care of yourself xxx
Never thought of your postage stamp curtains till i found your channel
I absolutely love this idea Kate. Thank you for showing your block method of sewing together. For someone like myself, with little quilting experience, this is a great help. Love this type of video. Thank you Kate. 🙂 xx
Just saw Eileen's pond!!!!! Just want to mention the video on Last Homely Garden is AMAZING. Great Job on Digger & using drone. The pond is going to be so special. Can't wait for next video on your garden channel! Thank you for sharing.
love love love this
Hi Kate,I love the little quilt. I like bright cheerful fabrics. I think that the little chick in that fabric is a sandpiper. It's one of my favorite birds.
I love how you say " I'll just pop these squares up" and then you just can't help doing some sorting right away.
I absolutely love this quilt! 🙌💖💚 You are so very talented Kate.
That was an informative conversation about Patron. Thanks for sharing the information 👍
Thank you Kate, for showing how to do a very simple beautiful quilt block, and sewing for the Linus Project. Your video brought so much peace to my heart today. I just heard that a friend of my daughter's little 3year boy, Jack, passed away from Leukemia . I'll use this quilt pattern to make a quilt for the family. Stay well and safe everyone on the lime green sofa.
Have been watching (& relishing) this channel for a long while now.♥ You love doing ALL the things I love doing & your demeanor is so kooky, relaxed, encouraging, & deep. A genuine person, because none of this has changed since the very first video I watched. the only thing that has 'changed' is better technology ( a +), the addition of your daughter in law (a double ++) and some trip take alongs (a +). I would love to be a patron, but I don't work & I have rely on my husband for the $$$$$ for crafting supplies to do my OWN thing 😁. But if I was independently wealthy I would, because I love what you freely give, so much, that I just know I would love MORE of it. I never feel bad about this; I think you have been very understanding of this situation....you always say "take care of yourself first". How can anyone misconstrue that? I have learned alot from you, have been inspired by you & love seeing someone be really passionate about their craft. I sew along with you, so I save up & binge watch your videos from xmas to March (I run a small farm & homeschool & don't sew for the rest of the year). I have to put the volume up really, really loud to hear you over the machine & my kids often wonder at me. Just crack on (I think that is what they say in the UK)!!!!!
I’m a new quilter and ur tip to line up the seams as well on ruler b4 cutting strips is a huge helpful tip. I can see that’s going to help me a lot. ❤
I made one of these! Thanks for the inspiration. I used a background of yellows (from almost tan to school bus yellow) and used scraps of huge florals and wild Hawaiian prints. This gave it a fractal bolt of colors of greens, reds, blues with black dots for interest. It was framed in a six inch solid deep purple. I was able to use up otherwise wild or difficult to use prints into something stunning. The backing is a pale yellow linen.
What a beautiful idea.. I was thinking of what to do for my 3 adult kids.. as a memory of me.. 😊
I have my morning coffee looking at my design wall. It is amazing how much you change things around when you take your time. I’m a Patreon to you, and just 2 others. I don’t have any streaming channels and I feel I owe a contribution to all the pleasure and content your channel provides. I hope you keep it up for a long time!
thank you very much for saying that! I am grateful xxx
Some child will really love the colorful 16 patch quilt.
Preciousness in this new quilt! Yes an adventurous child will be delighted to nap under this quilt! Thanks for all your inspiration! Blessings, Dawn
I would like to politely disagree that Patreon supports this channel. I think it is the other way around. This channel supports what you have on Patreon. I do enjoy all of the content you have posted here. The channel has grown over the years and has changed. I will continue to watch, of course, but I miss the Kate of the prior years. I cannot do a fee, even for a month of binge watching. Thank you for posting what you do on this and The Last Homely Garden channel.
forgive me, but I disagree. I don't think it is fair to expect me to stay in the past. I have loved finding out about new editing software and getting to grips with making better quality videos. Thank you for your support - I am grateful for it in all the places I make content xxx
Oh, I think the video is lovely! The content is wonderful, the videography is great, the music and editing is absolute perfection! It has grown and I would not expect you to stay in the past. I am just a very informal person and liked the chit chat and miss it. It is just my personal preference. I am curious about the extra content on Patreon. I have a feeling it is more of that, since you describe it as behind the scenes. I just feel bad that I am not able to join that side of things. I have an 18 year old son with special needs and a 26 year old daughter who is in circumstances where she is not able to be fully independent. I have drawn a line for myself where I do not do ANY subscriptions because my family's needs come first. If I open the door to one subscription, where do I stop? I'm a bit strange like that. I do want to give you a HUGE THANK YOU! Your quote of "Out of your head and into your hands" has helped me immensely! It is so true! When I craft, etc, I am able to reduce stress. I hope that my watching You Tube is helpful to you in some way because your channel has been very helpful to me.
Love those fabrics for the 16 patch….x Dottie
I use this block to tidy up leftovers from projects. They are an amazing mish-mash but have always been enjoyed by the recipients. Loved the video TFS
That's a great idea!
I so very much enjoy 'visiting' with you. I cannot help but smile while you are chatting.
Thank you from a very hot south Texas.
Thank you so much xxx
So adorable and beautiful quilts love 💕 your work God bless 💕
I just received a used book Quilted Forest Decor with 30 applique patterns intact. Intact! I look forward to trying applique this winter now my outdoor gardening is winding down.
You are right I was yelling at my phone when you were hanging your blocks 😅
Hello Kate and everyone on the LGS…x Dottie
Yes, Anna’s music selections are spot on for your calming, peaceful videos. Love watching you.
Your big quilt is so beautiful! This looks like fun. I love your channel! Thank you, Kate! 🌺♥🌺
Kate, I am grateful for what you bring to this channel. As I’m cutting fabric or sewing or most likely ripping seams😂, I’m listening to your stories, suggestions, about your cats and family. You inspire me, especially for a beginner in quilting and for that I’m very grateful. Thank you.
Thanks Kate. Love your new project. Will be cherished I’m sure. Thanks too for explaining Patreon. It’s quite expensive for me, sadly. Exchange rate between UK and Australia is almost as bad as USA and Australia. But I’m thankful for your you tube channel. 🇦🇺❤️
it's just lovely to have you here!
I love the colors Kate, its a fun bright quilt. Puts a smile on my face. Your such a comfort to watch. Thank you.
I get so excited when I see you’ve posted 👍❤️👍❤️👍❤️ much love from 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Kate thank you for sharing this fun block. I'm in CA, USA. I belong to a project linus group. I'm going to make this one. Bless you
I spent my entire Saturday quilting, planning quilts, and listening to quilting videos…. Surprise! I dreamt about quilting. I had a chat with you at an event in my dream. The fabric discussed was beautiful and the advice most welcome. If I ever own similar fabric, I now know exactly what I will do with it. If only it wasn’t so expensive. haha
Very cute fabric great for kids
Enjoyed the video 😊
Surf girls and mice in pajamas! Lol so cute! I love this block and it’s name, and great tutorial, Kate! Thank you for sharing!
Your patreon costs are very reasonable. You put so much I to it.
I’m watching from The mountains of Maine. I have fat quarter bundles of Christmas flannel. I’m going to cut 5” strips from the 18” side n make it that way. Wish me luck. Merry Christmas to all
Love this quilt!!! Will have to go to my sewing room and sort out some scraps to make one for one of my grandchildren!! You are so kind to make these videos to be an inspiration to us!! Thank you so much!😊 😊😊😊😊😊
Thanks for explaining about Patreon. I didnt know what that was and I sure will pop over there. You are right about telling about the work in your channel and about avoiding comercial sponsors. So see you there
I would only ever accept a sponsorship from the things I would actually use - I get asked to use some weird things! ha ha! xxx
I love Heather Ross and have a very hard time giving away a quilt made with her fabrics. I bow to you, being able to donate that quilt!
Kate, I'm So very happy to be on the Lime Green Sofa listening and watching you work. Your friend from New Mexico, Carla 🎶💖💐
Kate,after watching your previous video about the Linus charity, I decided my school holiday break I would make a couple of quilts for them. So I did, I just have to contact them so I can pass them on. What makes it better I've only every made one quilt before, so I've learnt so much making these.
wonderful! xxx
I loved this quilt! I love all the content you share with us. Thank you! I've learned so much from you, since Arne and Carlos gave a shoutout to your channel (maybe the first shout out?). I so wish I could financially contribute. I have literally no income, though. I try to do what I learned from Roxanne Richardson when she did a youtube video explaining how UA-cam adds work: so, I watch the adds before your videos, like, and comment on them. Thank you!
I earlier watched you film after losing one of your fury daughters😢 bloke my heart. I dread losing my kids. Much love kate. I do my beading when I watch you. ❤❤❤❤
Thanks!
Thank you! That is so kind xx
great idea I have loads of odd fat quarters to use up this block will be ideal
Hello Kate! Thank you for sharing another great quilt idea!
Genius, Kate. What a simple way to make a 16 square block. Enjoy having a cuppa while I watch you work.
Thank you for your lovely Vlog. I haven't quilted for years. You have inspired me to try again XXX
Hi Kate from NE Tennessee in USA. Enjoy you so much. Best wishes to you and your family.
All the boohooers, yall do realize she has to make a living too right 🤦. Im not a patron but i do love watching the old and new videos without complaint. Maybe someday ill venture on to see what patreon is all about. Last time i checked it wasn't very good layout and the app itself just didn't draw my interest, maybe they will improve in the future. Until then im happy to enjoy Kate on the UA-cams as is 😊. Kate makes me feel like im sitting with the mother i never had, i like her demeanor and playfulness, filled with love she is a joy to "be around". 😊
I made my granddaughter a summer outfit in that sea horse fabric. I also have a stash of the green fairy girl and the matching strawberry fabric and made a dress from the green fairy fabric too for my eldest granddaughter! How fun to see these fabrics on your table!
I think of a 16 patch as an 'every which way' block. It allows you to see things the right way up whether you are in bed or not. It's perfect to play 'I Spy'. The fabrics you have chosen are wonderful Kate, so positive and uplifting. Great choice for a Project Linus quilt. Your mum would be so proud. Thankyou.
hanks for that - I think she would - but she would question my fabric choices! she didn't like my wild and colourful fabric! xxx
Thanks for your dedication to your channel and sharing your home with us! Corrine
Hi Kate ! Oh those red strips paired with the pink/red floral fabric ( my favorite) is a gorgeous combo. All of the colors and patterns are so so pretty and nicely coordinated. . How very kind of you to undertake this project and what fortunate recipients!!
Love Marilyn D xx
Hi Kate, thanks so much for explaining Patreon so well as I wasn't sure how it worked. This enabled me to have the coreect info to mull over. Kind regards Jackie M 😊
