Thank you for a clear tutorial. I watched it as a refresher as our WI did a quilt during lockdown with a pack and written instructions, but it was good to see it being done. I am doing a cushion with Japanese style material for a present.
I think a cushion in those fabrics will be lovely. Glad you enjoyed watching, though I’m no expert. I love trying out new things and I thought this was quite interesting to do. I think you can get involved in so many things with the W.I. I may try to find one that isn’t too far away. I did belong to a branch quite a few years ago and they actually met in a Nissan hut. (Late seventies). Happy days!
Oooh thank you Mary . I have never seen Japanese folded patchwork . It's delightful ! What a lovely tutorial. Thank you . Hope you are feeling better . Kay xx
Hello Kay, I quite like making these and it is nice to do a bit of hand sewing now and again. TFW and thank you, I am a bit better today. Takes me forever to get over things though xx
Hello Shar, I shall have to see what else I can put up. Im bound to have something in my stash somewhere that might be of interest. Finding it is the problem lol!! tfw xx
Grace you are so kind to say so. I can’t see it myself. I do appreciate your comments very much and thank you for watching. I must do more sewing, I’ve been papercrafting instead for a while. Take care.
I've never really tried sewing but your tutorial was so clear and easy to follow that I think I could give this a go. Love how you can put the squares together to make a cushion cover, or quilt. Fabulous tutorial, Mary. Thanks for sharing 💕
Love this Mary, would be a nice relaxing project to sit and hand stitch whilst listening to some music or perhaps say prayers, relax and just "be". Thank you, June x
Hi Mary, Smashing tutorial, your a natural teacher. Instructions that are clear and easy to follow. It looked complicated until you explained it. Thank you so much as this is something I will give a try. Hugs xx : )
Great tutorial Mary, you gave clear and easy instructions, love these little squares they look great joined together, and your cushion cover is beautiful too, tfs lovely lady huge hugs x Julie
Hello Julie, just watched your ten questions. This is quite easy to do and no messing about with tiny scraps of fabric and trying to stitch them together to make them fit. I prefer papercrafting really.
One day Mary one day and I hope to have lessons when I will be able to leave the home for an hour or two. My mum said it will be somthing to look forward too. 👍
Hello Mary, i like this . I never did patchwork altough i have been sewing all my life. This looks so lovely that i will try to come up with a project using this pattern. Thank you so much, this is really something to make during the cold winter days. Tfs Hugs xxxSonja
Ive not done a lot of patchwork, I don't call myself a quilter even though I have made three quilts and lots of bags. It is not something that I have taken to really. Prefer other crafts.
Thanks so much for the wonderful tutorial Mary, when you first showed it I thought it would be difficult to make but it's actually so easy who knew lol. I'm not a sewer really but think I just may be able to manage this. Love the green fabrics so pretty. tfs...Hugs....Mary xo
Hi Mary, glad you enjoyed the tutorial, thought it would make a change. By the way, Ive posted your Father Christmas pattern today, I think you should be able to follow it. xx
Either you have big hands Mary or you got the 9 in square wrong I was laffing , I think im right I don't think it should be 9 in square that's what you said my darling lol love that technique it's easier that quilting tfs my darling great teacher too xx
Hello You, I think I said 9 in a square, not 9inch squares. I thought these would be difficult to do when I first saw them, but was pleased at how easy they were to put together. Makes a change sometimes to do a bit of hand sewing. tfw xxx
You know how to do things we want to learn, Measurements best in cm and inches not a mixture of the two. Write them sown ans show it on screen Ask a young person to help you edit it makes things a lot easier. Work on a mat or something to remind you to stay in the correct area.
Thank you for showing how to make these, and also thank you for giving measurements--too many tutorials forget to include this!

Love this Mary, would be a nice relaxing project to sit and hand stitch whilst listening to some music or perhaps say prayers, relax and just "be". Thank you, June x
Yes June, it makes a change to do a bit of hand sewing and I agree, very relaxing. I hate crafts that stress me out!! tfw xx
Thanks a Lot Mary, for sharing your Knowledge! It's Very Nice!
Hi Mary, Smashing tutorial, your a natural teacher. Instructions that are clear and easy to follow. It looked complicated until you explained it. Thank you so much as this is something I will give a try. Hugs xx : )

Great tutorial Mary.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. It reminds me of Cathedral window patchwork. Very useful idea for making small items for fundraisers x x
Yes, Iv done cathedral and I don't think this is so intricate and it makes a change. I quite like hand sewing as well. tfw x

Great tutorial Mary. I used to do a lot of sewing once, l would like to get back into it. Thank for the motivation. XDebbie
I do a bit now and again, I like to jump from one craft to another. Have you had any rain yet?
Mary Barratt Hi Mary, guess what! We had a huge thunderstorm last night about 12 hours after we paid for a load of water. 🤣
@@CraftyStuff Isnt it always the way!
Lovely tutorial Mary. =^^=
Tks for dropping by Debbie. xx
hi Mary, Very well instructed, thank you so much, but how do you join the squares?
Take two of the complete squares, place them right sides together and oversew with small stitches. Thanks for dropping by x
Either you have big hands Mary or you got the 9 in square wrong I was laffing , I think im right I don't think it should be 9 in square that's what you said my darling lol love that technique it's easier that quilting tfs my darling great teacher too xx
