How to Make the Cutest Scrappy Quilt Block You've Ever Seen!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- Quick and easy DIY sewing project idea for beginners to make and sew a pillow cover. I'll be making a beautiful patchwork quilt block pattern using small leftover fabric scraps!
This is also a great idea to recycle the scrap waste from your stash.
I'll also be showing you how to use the quilt as you go technique for making this scrap quilt block. Some people also call it the Stich and Flip technique and what that means is you're creating a complete pattern, ready to you, block by block of fabric.

Have you ever tried making an XL Quilt as you go quilt block? What would you do differently? This was so much fun, I can totally see a whole quilt made with several blocks just like these. Also, did you know about the tip for keeping your thread in the needle when you're using the thread cutting feature on your sewing machine? Let me know and enjoy!
I am going to try 🙂
Made a standard sized pillow sham to use up scraps to go with those in a Queen-sized quilt. Have also taken a small extra pieced block as the center for this style of scrappy string pieced block. Fun!
@@helenhershtjader5759 Love that!
This is stinking cute...I've. Got about 4 or more scrappy quilts I need to finish quilting..I love scrappy ..Have you made jar quilts? I made a bunch and love making them as well.. I bought all kinds of fruit fabrics..Thanks again!Fun video ❤
I have been sewing the tiniest of scrap fabric together, and it is very relaxing for me. I actually need a small pillow case, so I will make one of these. Have a great week 😊
When you run out of scraps: if there is a quilt shop near you, they often have classes which generate lots of strips. The quilt shop near me sells bags of those strip packs for very cheap, they also sell larger scrap fabric pieces by the pound. That is how I first attempted to learn how to quilt blocks when I didn’t have a lot of money for fabric.
That's a great idea, I'll look into it, thank you 😃
Oh thanks for the advice! I’m wanting to learn how to quilt, so no scraps yet, but I love the look of scrap quilts.
There's not many fabric stores within easy driving distance for me. The one that's about 30 minutes away is a small one and the ladies Make quilts. They have a basket now and then filled with scraps for a couple dollars a piece. There's some cute pieces for kids that I wouldn't normally buy. Got one with chickens on it and made my mom a hexy flower with chickens on it to sew to a crazy quilt. A real crazy crazy quote 🙃
@@rosemarymarie5595 that sounds awesome 😁
Hi, what is the quilt shop you are talking about, and where is it, thanks a lot. :)
I don't have a thread cutter because I use vintage Singer sewing machines with only a straight stitch for quilt piecing . Machines that can do zig-zag never have as straight of a stitch as a vintage straight stitch machine or that Juki that everybody likes so much. This is a terrific way to make a summer quilt or a blanket for tummy time for people who have babies.. By sewing it to a piece of fabric instead of using paper finishes it all in one step. My scrap pile just keeps getting bigger and I don't have any kind of organization other than a box. I definitely enjoyed your video and I hope you continue to make them.
I agree, vintage sewing machines sew straight stich like nothing else!. I guess the less machines do, the better they are at it! I have a couple of videos on scrap organization, don't know if you've watched any. And yeah, this type of quilt just screams summer! 😀
What an infectious positive energy you have! I hope you havw a wonderful day my friend
Thank you so much! Have a wonderful day as well!
lovely crumb quilt tutorial. I am obsessed with sewing crumb quilt blocks! just dont have enough scraps boo hoo
I'll probably have that issue soon but someone suggested here to go to local quilt shops and try to get the leftover scraps from their classes and that sounds like a great idea. I know you can find som bags on Etsy but I'm not sure what they go for...
That's so cute!! I love your laugh and your videos. I'm going to make a pillow like yours. Darling pillow ❤🙂
Thank you! 😊 I really do have a LOT of fun! I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun too making this one.
Another great tutorial on how to use my scraps. I think I'm going to make a scrappy baby doll quilt and pillow for my granddaughters babies 🥰. Thank you, Sandy, for another great tutorial 😊
Sounds great! Have fun 😁
Your pillow is really cute!! I love using up my scraps. I am going to have to try this method. Thanks for sharing!!
I hope you give it a try, let me know how it went 😁
Awesome. My grandkids and friends loved it. Ages 4-11. They love it. Never worry if someone don't like there would be dozens who will. Guarantee.. by experience 😊😊😊
Thank you 😊
your laugh is so warm and lovely and you are so well spoken and eloquent! i really enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing your talent and hard work with us 😊
Thank you so much 🥰
Love this tutorial. When I am working with scraps I use Elmer’s school glue to hold smaller pieces in place. Just a dab works. Love my scrap piles
Thank you 😁
Very cute! Organic in design. I like that it’s quick so I’ll finish it.
Yeah, I'm all into quick and easy these days 🙂
We never run out of scraps...even working down Mount Scrapmore. 😂
Hahahaha love that 🤣
Lovely pillow cover.😊
Very fun and easy. Thank you so much.
I'm making a scrappy one right now. I just love it. Great fun
It is! Like a puzzle
What a cute idea to use up scraps with!!
Put your batting and backing underneath the base and quilt as you go.
I love doing that. All that's left is binding
Wow is amazing I'm lazy to join fabric pieces but after seeing this I'm willing to try it 👌❤️❤️❤️
Give it a try, it's so much fun!
I love this tutorial Sandy! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Very cute idea!! 💗💗
I have literally started doing this work a few weeks ago. I was wondering the best way to make an envelope cushion cover this was so simple. Thank you.
That's so great 😁 we're in synch
I love your fabrics.
Very sweet
SOOOO cute 💛
thank you! 😀
Love it! 😍 Thanks for sharing!😃
Loved your excitement!
Thank you 😊
You can make a crazy quilt out of it.
how awesome will that look??
Love your videos ❤
thank you 😀
So cute!!
1:42 There is a difference, but only a small one. QAYG is used to describe a project when you have batting/wadding as your foundation rather than a piece of fabric. Then you join the quilt blocks together with sashing strips and add backing fabric.
Makes sense,.thank you 😊
love this
very cute
I know this technique as QUILT AS YOU GO /QAYG or foundation piecing ... Can be done with a backing ....or .... without a backing that is added on later. Depends upon what you want to do with your made fabric ... what project you use it for.
I recently discovered and love it, so practical and fun! ☺️
I have 13Blocks Done I think I need 2 more To do.
💪 almost there!!
I use scraps for every. Except I don't use that muslin piece. I just sew the pieces together or on batting. Then cut my shapes afterwards.
Yes, I usually sew them into batting as well.
I do it that way, too.
That way, the quilting is all done when the square is all done.
I learned it in a Women's Day magazine back in the 1970s
@@ellenhofer3343 love that!
I started tonight but having trouble with edges being exposed. Can you do a video on how to avoid that? Especially when using small scraps. If I add a piece over two pieces. The top piece has raw edges.
Hi. I will be doing more of these, yes. The trick is to make sure the last piece you add is bigger than the previous one and that it covers the first piece completely when you're pining it.
@@seweasybysandy yea im trying to piece together more, i may need to sew strips of blocks, but trying to be less planned
I want to try this but not sure if I have enough scraps. Just finished my very first quilt.
Hi Debra. That's awesome, congratulations! For the scrappy project, it depends on what you want to do. It its the same project, it doesn't take that many scraps. 😁
What is the purpose of sewing it to the white backing? Couldn't you just sew scraps together and then cut to square?
You could but for those smaller pieces it would be harder. This way you get a clean back and if you used batting between the two or instead of the back, you would have a quilted quilt block immediately.
@@seweasybysandy thank you :)
This is called a crazy quilt a very old quilt😊 pattern!
😁
Thank you for your wonderful video! I love your block! I’m confused about the back pieces though. Are they both 18 inches? How do they overlap if they are both 18 inches big?
Hi, they're 18" wide and 15" high.
@@seweasybysandythank you so much!
Sometimes the back of a fabric is kind of cool to use upside down. Embrace your mistakes!
I like that! Never thought of it 🙂
what size is the white background
18 by 18 inches
Since I'm new to all this, can you tell me what you are using to sew the scraps on? And the brand please?
Hi! It's thermal adhesive, I use heat n'bond, I've left a link for it in the description. Have a great day!
❤❤❤
What do you use for a base fabric?
Hi! An old white sheet, it doesn't have to be anything fancy
Is is unlikely you’ll ever run out of scraps
💍💍💍💍💍💍 😮
Don't talk, just sew,
you talk too much, we are more interested your action
That's rude!
I get bags of scraps at thrift stores. Some bags even have quilt blocks
all completed!
That's so cool 😎
