Love, Nikki - Навчання та стиль
The freedom of this quilt despite it having to be calculated is really appealing and the finished quilt so much fun, well done 👏
I have never enjoyed a series more than this one. It's been a revelation watching your methods and thinking process all along the way. The finished quilt is just amazing. It is exactly what quilting should be about - happy, fun, creative, freeing. I am definitely buying the pattern booklet for reference and hope I can free up my rigid sewing habits and allow myself to play with my fabrics and enjoy them. It's been an inspiration.
Yes, thank you! You can do it 🙌🏻
Today I came across your fun video-first time and this was truly enjoyable .
My son’s name is Nik. When he was growing up it was Nikki. After Nikki Cruz.
So that draws me to your channel right away.
But THIS!!!! Wow. I absolutely love it. Hubs & I started quilting almost 2 years ago in retirement. He loves the precision. I love the artistry.
So I’m happy to show him both are good.
He is Michelangelo and I am not. But I can’t say I’m Picasso because I’m not good. Yet.
Thanks for sharing your artistry & your joy! ❤
I can see why you have 93+K subscribers! This is so in my wheelhouse! I am a new quilter and am thrilled to see someone following their imagination and problem solving as you go! Your quilt is astonishingly wonderful! Cheers from Minnesota.
Thank you!! 🫶🏻
Loving the chicken chasing the motorcycle❤❤
Wow how cute! I never knew this was possible, I love the uniqueness that this quilt has, it’s like a piece of art!! 💕
I really like how you used printed fabric to add elements - instead of having to piece everything. Love it.
I agree with so many others! This is the best cutest most creative quilt! I love it so much!! You are an artist!
Your new dog is a cutie!!
Holy cow (!) I've been in a patchwork/quilting rabbit hole lately, and that is the absolutely most awsome quilt I have ever seen! What an incredible work of art. You are on true artist, and such an ispiration🏘🏠🏡🐄🚙🚗🚓
Wow thank you! 🤗
Oh my lord! How much talent, imagination, skills and passion in this quilt. Amazing
I was wondering about the Hexies, thought I must have missed the reveal. The wonky house quilt is amazing
Nice work Nikki! Thank you for your cheerful inspiration and sharing with us!
This is an amazing quilt! I tend to create scrappy quilts that I (literally) make up as I go along. I see wonky houses in my future. Thanks!
Such a fun and cute quilt! It's almost like a seek and find type quilt because the more you look at it, the more little things you notice. 😊❤
Your quilt is just fantastic. Loved watching your process. Liberating indeed!
That quilt is adorable. Thank you for sharing the process. I just sat here with my coffee and watched you make that and it was a fantastic way to wake up this morning! Super cute!
You should enter it in a quilt show this spring/summer. Congratulations 🎉!
I plan to enter it in the Kentucky State fair in the summer 😊
Perfect! Don’t forget to follow up with us after the Fair.
Now that is a quilt! It has so much love and personality.
I love your houses!! Your quilt is truly a work of art.
I LOVVVVVVVVEEEE your "wonky" house project! :) So clever, so cute!
Love it! So cute. I have dreamed about doing a neighborhood/community quilt for years, and never gotten beyond the dreaming. But you did it! It is lovely! Looking forward to seeing it bound and done.
This is the cutest Quilt EVER! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful talent. This reminds me of the Guy Dave's Craft room. He does his own thing always. Its amazing to watch. It allows people to realize, there are no rules. Do what you want and like!❤❤❤❤
I like his work too!
Soooo adorable. Best quilt I've seen to date. Not even kidding. This is a MASTERPIECE. Gotta try my hand. Now, off to get cow fabric... evil temptress...
Wow, thank you! (😈)
YAY NIKKI!!! I am so thrilled to see your Wonky Neighborhood. Great job. 🎶💐💖
You come up with the BEST ideas. ❤️ I hope you continue making improv quilts…it inspires the rest of us. Love love love it!
I absolutely Love this quilt and I really enjoyed the process! Thank you so much for bringing us along and for all the helpful tips and inspiration! You're very talented and gifted with a teaching spirit. Your honesty and sense of humor are wonderfully refreshing and that's what makes you unique. You're a jewel! 💖
Thank you so much!
Absolutely AMAZING💕💕💕. You did a FABULOUS job! Totally creatively BEAUTIFUL!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💞💞💞
This is amazing. Love how much fun you had!!! Want to try this. Thank you for sharing your creativity!❤
I actually applauded when you showed the finished quilt, it is so beautiful, humorous and characterful, totally inspiring xx
Hehe thanks 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This is the cutest, most fun quilt I have ever seen! I loved seeing the process, you make it seem very doable!!
Love the process. The sunburst looks like so much fun!
I love the way you imagine and quilt. That is the way I prefer to quilt as well. You are a pleasure to listen to and watch! So colorful and liberating. Love this series. Quilting doesn’t have to be so serious lol! Let’s have fun!!!
Yeah! 🤪😁
My favorite quilt “design” to date! So much fun!
Nikki! I LOVE your creativity…..perhaps because it reminds me of mine……that is: WONKY!
Way to stick with something and make it spectacular. I enjoyed this so much.
A fun project on steroids! I love it.
This video is awesome!🤩 So much to see, so much to learn, and your creativity as well as your enthusiasm are such an inspiration. Thank you Nikki, for sharing this with us. The wonky house and block books are real must-haves!!!
I am starting to watch this series at the end and will definitely go back to the beginning. It is fun to see HOW MUCH FUN YOU ARE HAVING. Years ago, I was in a house block exchange. I made my block to resemble my childhood home and put a plant in the window. I look forward to seeing your finished quilt and how you quilted it. Now I live in a city that end with the word Forest. Might be fun to put the houses as my childhood neighborhood and a road to my current home with a paper pieced orest preserves nearby..maybe a welcome to sign to mark entrance to current city. Thank you for encouraging creativeness and locking the door on the quilt police in our mind while making this quilt. I cannot wait to play house with my blocks.
That is so fun!
Your quilt is stunning, Nicky! Who would have thought that this beautiful creation was inside you screaming to get out? I would love to think I have one inside me, too!! It is definitely in my think-about file in my mind. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity with us! You da bestest!!!
Oh wow Nikki! Your quilt is incredible gorgeous! I'm going to try liberated quilting. Thank you for the inspiration and the motivation! Cheers, Suzan
love, love, love. In my quilting I allow my recovering perfectionist person to come out and play. Such FUN alternative to precision piecing! .........Just wish it were possible to actually play in your quilt neighborhood Bravo!
OHHHH include the bus! That is one thing I remember so much about Louaval, TARC buses everywhere!
You are a joy to watch! Thank you for detailing this process for us, very helpful. At the end I caught myself just smiling along with you. Great JOB (as usual)! 😊
This is fantastic! I am starting to embrace the improv method of quilting after making dozens of “traditional” quilts (following a written pattern) and you are right, it is so much fun to see how creative you can get! Hope you’ll share the finished quilt once it’s all put together ❤ thanks for the inspiration Nikki! 😊
I definitely will!
I love this sooooo much!!! Absolutely adorable!!! I really need to tap into that improv side of me!
Thank you for all that you do! Your sweet personality and charming sewing style is so inspirational to me.
I really liked your video, you have a wonderful imagination, all your designs look so cute and I really like the paper piecing moon for the one corner you did a great job. The quilt top turned out adorable. Keep your imagination going and have a great day.
You should submit this to a quilt show! Spectacular!🎉
I do plan to enter it into the Kentucky State fair 😁
I didn’t find this channel until I saw this video. Your quilt is just about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen! Sew very precious.
Thank you and welcome! 🤗
Thanks so much for sharing your process. As a quilter myself and longarmer as well, I love hearing the "why" behind the artwork that is a quilt. Makes it so much more fun to hear the process and ideas that went into each piece. Really appreciate this :)
Nice to see the car pulling the camper got into your quilt top. It is amazing and my kind of quilting. I made a Christmas quilt this way with another friend. We made two blocks a month and exchanged one - at the end of a year, she made and wall hanging and I added many more squared, strips, etc. and made a huge bed quilt. SO FUN and liberating is the key descriptive of my feelings.
The whimsy of this quilt makes me smile.
I love this quilt! This inspired me to start buying fabrics with animals, trees, cars, bugs, and more. Can't wait to start my own Wonky House Quilt!
Have fun! 😁
This is amazing..... Thanks for sharing the process. Its been inspiring to watch you process through making this. It's obvious you have had sew much fun with this, what a prize you have created!
Your projects and teaching style keep me inspired. Thanks Nicki
Absolutely adorable quilt!!!!! Love Love Love it!!!!
And I Love this channel!!!
Thanks so much!! 😁🤗
I’ve enjoyed watching this series very much. Thank you for sharing your artistic talent with us. ❤
Oh my goodness! What a beautiful quilt! I LOVE the wonkiest! SO glad I happened upon your channel! LOVING IT!
Your quilt top came out beautiful! So creative and inspiring! Thank you for sharing!
I love the end result of your quilt! Thank you for sharing with us!
Ok, more ideas for next time. Darn, I’m really sorry I didn’t see this sooner so I could kibbitz in time. 😂 Your next neighborhood could include a church, park with a bandstand, shops. Also, you could leave the different levels of ground fabric and put in some of your curved Drunkard’s Path blocks to simulate hills. 😊
Improv is the best! Yours is imaginative, colorful and an inspiration! In my opinion, improv is the best combination of creativity and skill 😊
I agree 🤗
🤩💥❤This is by far the ABSOLUTE BEST creative version of a house/neighborhood quilt I've seen!!!❣Way to go❣This is something I would totally attempt🔥Great job❣
Thank you! 😁
I LOVE it! It turned out so fun! I'm too uptight to make one myself, but I greatly appreciate you sharing your creativity and the process.
I can totally imagine you wrapping up a grandchild in this quilt someday, or playing "I spy" with them as you sit on it and have a little picnic in the yard.
This might be the cutest, most creative quilt I’ve ever seen! 😊
Oh wow, what an epic masterpiece!!! Soooo creative and cheerful, love all the little fussy-cut details!! Bravo 🥳✂️🪡🧵💕
I have loved watching you make this awesome quilt. What fun and inspiration. This would make a fun class or quilt retreat. 😊
I just found your channel today and I can't wait to redo my fabric stash 😁 and then I plan on trying to put together an improv quilt. My fabric organization is most important for now because I won't be creative until it's organized 😅.
Kudos from Iowa ❤
Beautiful quilt 😍
I love watching your videos. I also love the music you are playing on this video. I've not been able to listen to music since my mom passed away in 2004. ❤️
Wow, I just LOVE this, what a great, fun, pretty, quilt! Thank you for sharing your thought process - the best part!
I love improv stuff. That's gorgeous!!!
Love your quilt. It's spectacular. Thank you for sharing your project and the process. So inspiring.
So much fun to watch you make the wonky house. Love it, makes me smile 😂.
U should be proud!!! That is one of the most beautiful quilts I've ever seen. U are a girl after my own heart. I used to go to a quilting group and they only did all the traditional quilt patters with the exception of 1 or2 girls. But none out of the box really. I drew some pics of my favorite chocolates on muslin colored them in with crayon and wrote Gumps saying Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get. Then had all kinds of candy fabric around it. I also took a coffee mug and drew around that and put chocolate material for hot chocolate, added some Mittens, snowballs, a snowman, some pine trees, a fireplace and some other things. Made one just like it for my daughter. The hot chocolate was sitting on a table in front of a window with icicles on top of window with steam coming up from chocolate and it had tiny marshmallows in it. I've made a chicken quilt for my daughter plus some other goofy type chicken hangup and a cat quilt for me out of previous cats I owned. Still got a lot of ideas plus I've made several other quilts...none traditional. Lol. Keep coming up with ideas. Will be watching. Love the title "Liberated Quilts". That's what I will name mine too. I didn't really have a category to put them in. Now I do! So thanks.😊
Your quilts sound so great 🤗
Love, love, love your wonky house + quilt! I have been making wonky things for about 30 years. One of my first classes I took was with Gwen Marston and I bought her book Liberated Quiltmaking. It has been my favorite way of making quilts ever since. I make far more traditional designs (because of where they are going ) but liberated style is my hearts desire. You have nailed it admirably!! Love your channel and your cheery personality! oh, and your dolls. Thanks for sharing Nikki!
I stumbled on her Liberated Medallion book at a used bookstore when I was in the process of making this and it was so helpful!
This is my favorite kind of patchwork ! I love making all kinds of different blocks within a theme and then finding a way to put them all together. Adding here , trimming there. Creating a story as I go. Using different methods like you with fussy cutting and paper piecing . I call it Intuitive patchwork because it doesn't follow any set rules. I just make it up as I go along and have so much fun trying to put it all together!😁 I'm really happy to find someone else who does this kind of improv patchwork.
Your finished quilt top is absolutely stunning! So fun and colorful!😍
Absolutely outstanding! Love this kind of quilting! Thank you for sharing!
You certainly are very creative and talented the quilts are amazing,I think I need a bigger sewing room to do all that ,you have inspired me , happy sewing and quilting 🤗
Live,love,love the Wonky Town quilt!!!!
So enjoyable watching you create this happy quilt. Hoping you don’t sell it. I’m sure this particular says “Mom” and should be enjoyed by loved ones for many years to come…eventually to grandchildren??❤😊
No way would I sell it!
Wow, I love that. The fussy cut characters and vehicles etc make it so interesting. Great Job.
That turned out amazing, so beautiful great job! I didn't have any doubts you make us all feel great how we all mess up measuring!! Thank you for sharing your work!
I love it so much! I now want to start collecting cute little animals and stuff so I can make my own wonky neighborhood quilt! ❤it is just wonderful
I absolutely LOVE this!! My Ricard Scary loving inner child is jump screaming 😭!!
This quilt is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. You made me feel like I could do this too. Please make a Christmas village quilt in the future with Christmas lights, skating pond, snow scapes, shops, kids and sleds, carolers, and animals.
I adore it!!! Such imagination!!! And your dedication to finishing!! I want the book!
Put the Blue Ribbon on it! 1ST PLACE, IN ALL CATEGORIES! BEAUTIFUL!
😁😁
Oh my goodness. That is a work of art. I love everything about it.
What an amazing accomplishment! Love your creativity & your precious quilt!! 💕👏
Love this so much. I have started to gather small pieces of fabric with fun items on them or that have neat textures. I have zero quilting experience but this type looks like the most fun way to try quilting. Thank you for this fun series.
I cannot express how excited I am to have found you! This is the type of quilting I want to do!! My mother in law used to be a traditional piecer quilt maker and very good at it. I tried and tried but would be bored very quickly. I tried Folk Art and really enjoyed it but this is better! I'm ordering your book and watching all your videos! Wish me luck!!
Good luck! Excited for you! 🤗
It's adorable!!! I'm kind of sad that it's done, it's been so fun to watch you make this. It really is lovely and there's sooo many things to look at. Good job! 👏
Thank you so much!!
Your quilt is absolutely gorgeous! You have inspired me to try making something too…. much much smaller of course! I love your channel
I’m so glad you’re back! I love your new baby! He is just the cutest. Congratulations on becoming a new mommy and yes that is exactly what having a new puppy feels like and when they get a little older it feels just like having a toddler. I have loved every one of my animal babies. I have lost (they past from old age) 5 (three cats and 2 dogs) and we adopted 2 boys that were bonded that were 2 years old and then a years or so later we adopted a kitten. They are fabulous.
Absolutely fabulous, Nikki, I love watching you work and think, such fun. I have just finished a quilt that has taken quite a long time and the creative process is the longest bit. I hope we get to see your quilt when it is completely finished - can’t wait to see how you back it and quilt it! Thanks, Vonney, uk
You are brilliant! This is the cutest quilt ever!!! I absolutely love it!!! I love your channel so much, I look forward to every single video! Thank you for inspiring me with your creativity! 😁
Thank you! 🫶🏻
Darling, darling, darling! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I am inspired but overwhelmed. Congrats on all your hard, hard work. Bet you had a blast doing it.
I really did!
AND, I noticed that you are soooo talented that you can cut fabric while sewing on your machine, at the same time. 😏😏
Vary creative quilt I think it's awesome.
I like the wonky house. And great job.
Well done . it's amazing that I see some of the same fabric that I have that you used in your quilt
I tend to like easy and fast but I should enjoy my quilt process at a slower pace and do a art 🎨 quilt. Thanks so much for sharing you
Process .
First time viewer - love your quilt! I’ll definitely be back. Thank you ❤️😁🌷
I made my first house, but its not too wonky. I'm working on that. I'm more of an exact person, but I love your concept. It was lots of fun, and I'll continue making more. But, this first one is way big, lol! 😊Thanks for all your great ideas.
What a blast! Thank you for offering the tutorials. The key word I took away was Liberated. Liberated from all the rigidness. Most of my fabric is "safe". Liberated makes my heart sing. Thank you!
This is the funnest cutest quilt ever!!! Makes me want to try something similar. Congratulations on the new pup!!!
Your quilt is fantastic!! It turned out sew cute. What creativity! Love this so much❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is sooooo cute! Thanks for letting us into your wonky neighborhood! Great job!
