Great video! I'm working on a Fourth of July wall hanging for my front door and your self binding demonstration is just what I need to finish it up! Thanks so much! I hope your Donation Quilt Drive 2023 was successful--I'm just seeing your video in June 2024.
Hi Stacey, I’m so happy to hear that you received some goodies from AGF and Oliso. I love using Art Gallery Fabrics and happy to see an online quilter doing the same. I hope you continue to grow and reap the perks of your hard work teaching us your projects. I think you’re excellent!
Stunning Stacey. Simple and elegant as all your tutorials are. Would love to see you make a potato chip quilt. I check every morning [Australia time] to see what you have posted. NZ hugs via Australia. 0000
Thank you for this pattern. I had the quilt top made in under well under an hour. I'll be sending it out to be quilted then can't wait to try the self binding method. This is a genius idea!
Hi Stacy! I was just tickled to learn this binding technique. I've always thought must be an easy way to bring the backing to the front for binding rather then the traditional way of using binding strips, but I was always nervous to try and figure it out on my own LOL . Thanks so much for making this video on how to do it! It was so easy! Im actually finishing up a quilt for myself using this method 😀👏🏻 So glad I found your channel! Looking forward to more videos!
This was an unbelievably simple video tutorial, which I loved ! Thank you for this. I have seen so many on this subject that they pale to your video in comparison. This video I will save to watch over and over again whenever I come to binding a quilt. Thank you !
Wow, thank you! I'm glad you liked it so much, be sure to check out some of my other videos. I appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment, it really helps me out 😊
Hi Stacey, another newbie here. Just wanted to say thank you for your video, I could actually understand what you were saying, other videos have left me confused - and that's not very hard, believe me!! 😂 As a result, I've made my own version of hugs and kisses, only my third project but I'm pleased with it. Just in time as it goes as bubs who's going to be receiving it is due any time!!
Welcome! That's so awesome, I am glad you found it helpful, please do check out some of my other videos to I appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment, it really helps me out 😊
I've been avidly watching your vids Stacey!! Now I have the confidence to try something a bit more technical, wish me luck and thanks again for your hard work in producing these informative tutorials 😊
Loved this video. I have two neighbours that are expecting babies over the next month. This is the perfect quilt to make for the babies. Quick and easy. Thank you from 🇨🇦
Thanks Stacey! I wasn’t going to make a baby gift quilt due to limited time but I believe I can do this very quickly and choose fabrics that really pop to make it special.
I am going to use repurposed fabrics from my stash. I have deconstructed old pillowcases and instead of buying new fabric, I am going to use that fabric for my quilt. Thanks for taking the time to make this video!
Susie I have been using from my stash for all of my blocks. Things have gone up in price, so I am taking advantage of the good fabric I have on hand. Mine will all be scrappy.
Gurl, This is the best quilt top for a person who sews, but not quilts. I have my quilt top done. I used leftover fat quarters from a bundle that matched some from another bundle. I need to get my fabric for the backing. This quilt is just the right size. I think I will sew bibs and burp cloths to match even though it's not a theme for a baby. Thanks again.
Thank you Stacey , I'm new to Quilting & I really enjoy watching your videos. You instructions are so helpful! Thank you for sharing! Just Subscribed to your channel
Welcome Jane! Thanks so much for your kind feedback, I’m so glad you find my videos helpful. You might like to check out my free beginners quilting course here: www.stacey-lee.com/2020/12/21/quilt-club-with-stacey-lee/
I love doing self binding quilts, your pattern is adorable, I plan to use it for some of my donations quilts. Before I do my self binding, I make mitred corners so that they are sewn nicely closed, then turn the rest of the binding in and topstitch. Thanks for the video!
New to quilting since January, I'm in the midst of making baby quilts for my identical twin girl grandbabies. I love love this option of binding! As both quilts are already pinned and waiting to be quilted, I'm praying I have enough backing fabric to finish the binding this way, rather than creating the binding separately.
Yay! Every quilt makes a difference! I've attached the link for information on my quilt drive, thank you for your support! www.stacey-lee.com/2024/01/16/quilt-donation-drive-2024/
Just found your channel. Subscribed. Gave a quick review and liked what I saw. I'm not a quilter but want to try. Like sewing small projects especially for gifts. This looks like a good project for a beginner. 💓💜💙💚💛
I like this idea, I have a grandson in forster care. He is 12 now so I would like this pattern or another one this easy to make for him.( he a very large guy).
Hi, I think one of these two quilts would be better since they are designed for older kids in mind ua-cam.com/video/MTCZoNx2XFs/v-deo.htmlsi=4Cjl3mgD2Ia-ZR-f ua-cam.com/video/Etpxkn4KJiI/v-deo.htmlsi=-v-hzrl2KBvLCpWz
Just found this tutorial! What a cute idea. Mine turned somewhat into a rectangle shape, because I didn't cut them to the same size. Oh well. There's always next time. 😁
I love how you explain everything slow and study. Thank you. If your material is smaller than the 18.5 what do you cut the squares at. Is it still 9 inches?
Great tutorial, but have you tried this? To trim away excess batting, put a few pins into the batting parallel just outside the edge of the quilt to mark the size of the quilt top. Flip the quilt upside down so the backing is facing you. Then fold back the backing, and place your ruler along your pins. Draw a line or just cut with your rotary cutter.
Iam a new subscriber and I really like your channel… easy to follow and understand.. iam wanting to make this baby quilt into a comfort quilt for a friend and was wondering if I could add boarders to make the quilt size bigger like maybe a lap quilt.? Thank you and I look forward to viewing more of your videos… have a blessed day !
When you sew down the binding after you fold it and press it, if you sew just off the outer edge 1/8”, doesn’t the inner edge roll up or back when washed? I usually sewed the inner edge down with n 1/8” ? Or did I misunderstand.?I love your accent, very easy to listen to and follow. I’m old and fairly new to sewing, so forgive my question if it’s simplistic😂
Looks like something I would like to try for my donation quilt. I have a question. Are you targeting young, small children? To make one for school age 6-12 children be wanted or needed? How about the 12-18 age group?
Hi Ruth, thanks so much for joining in. Comfort Cases ask for two sized quilts, one for babies and one for big kids. This quilt is for babies, then next week I will do a big kids quilt. With the big kids quilt I think the fabric will dictate who it goes too. Like fun kids fabric for kids or more grown up fabric for the teens. I hope that helps. 🤗
Hi hun, just watched, I'm a beginner & would love to make this, i have a brother sewing machine but want to upgrade, can you tell me what brother machine you were using please...
The machine I am using is no longer available. I am now using a Juki. You can check it out in my more recent videos and I have some videos just on my machine and where I got it from 🤗
You are a great teacher. You explain things in detail so even a novice sewer can understand!

Thank you for this pattern. I had the quilt top made in under well under an hour. I'll be sending it out to be quilted then can't wait to try the self binding method. This is a genius idea!
That’s awesome! But I’m not sure you can do the self binding if it’s professionally quilted, I’m not sure how that works.
Wonderful clear video. Thank you. I'm inspired to make some of these for donation.
That's awesome! I appreciate you watching my video and taking the time to leave a comment - thank you! ❤

Stacey, I made the quilt top and will back it with no-pill fleece. I had fat quarters left over so I made a mini version for a pillow.
That’s awesome Georgia 🤗 Thanks for watching my video!
Cute, cute, cute. I plan on donating.

Hi, I did a stitch in the ditch and then diagonally through all the squares 😊
Great tutorial, but have you tried this? To trim away excess batting, put a few pins into the batting parallel just outside the edge of the quilt to mark the size of the quilt top.

Hi Laura, thanks for watching! Yes I don’t see why not. Just need to work out how much to trim each side based on the size you start off with. 🤗
Très bien explique mais je ne comprend pas toutes les mesures car je parle français merci beaucoup pour le beau modele

The machine I am using is no longer available. I am now using a Juki. You can check it out in my more recent videos and I have some videos just on my machine and where I got it from 🤗
Can a border be put on before the backing if I want it a little bigger?
Yes you can 🤗 Thanks for watching 🙌

Do you use cotton or flannel fabric?
Hi, this is cotton, because we still have the batting 🤗
Hi, do you use cotton batting or polyester?
Hi, I always use cotton 🤗
@@staceyleecreative Thank you
Im new to all this but wouldnt it be easier to make batting same size a quilt top so you dont have the extra step?
Hi Chris, yes you could, but sometimes the three layers can move a little, so that's why I like to do it this way 😊
For the charity would they be able to use pillow cases as well as quilts?
Hi Robin, unfortunately they don’t, since they can only fit so much in a case, and they send every child the same items. 🤗
Do they pay for the shipping of the quilts
No you have to pay for shipping, because it is a charity. But they do offer $20 shipping labels through a third party.
If I were to send you these baby clothes what would you charge to make a quilt for me
Hi Brenda, I’m sorry I don’t make quilts to sell 😊
