Available online - www.d-originals... Suzanne McNeill shows you how to achieve four different looks for your quilt using a fun and easy straight stitch 5-minute block technique.
Just an FYI for those making this block - your middle piece MUST be 1/4" wider than the other two pieces of fabric. So... if you are using 5 X 10 for the two outside pieces, your middle piece must be 5 1/4 X 10 for this technique to work. Why it has not been corrected on the video after all this time I do not know. But I wanted to restate this (others have done so in the comments in past months and years, but it bears repeating every so often so folks see it before cutting up and wasting fabric.)
Hi thank you for this, I have just ordered the book so hopefully the correct measurements will be recorded there. I was going to start cutting but I'll think i'll wait now until the book arrives.
I don't have the ability to go to quilting classes and you make it possible for me to envision myself doing more than just 9 patch or strip pieced quilts. Thank you so much.
You are a gifted quilter. Love,love, love the simplicity of your blocks.To me the designs are so so so complicated til I stumbled on you Miss Susan.Thank you for sharing!
They are indeed so beautiful! Hopefully, I can make something like that one of these days! You make it look so simple! I am just a bit intimidated, but I would love so much to try it! Thank you so much for showing us!
Love your 5-minute blocks. I look forward to trying them. I am just getting my sewing room organized so that I can my quilting journey. Thank you, this was very inspiring.
I just bought my first sewing machine and it happen to be a sewing and an embroidery machine after fifty years,frankly i am a beginner,love to watch your work.
I am sew enjoying your videos here on youtube. I have learned new techniques from some great quilters and designers of fabulous tools to help. I saw the 10 minute blocks many moons ago and love them. Will be looking forward to the new book coming soon I hope. Texas loves to quilt.
Thank you, it's wonderful to hear from you..always like feedback on how instructions are written. The book is available for pre-order on the Design Originals site, should be in print by August.
Thanks Suzanne- you make it look so easy! YOu are one of the few inspirational teachers I have seen- thanks so very much!! Still looking good and so easy! Cheers Marietta Brisbane!
Suzanne, you are soooo clever! They are all beautiful, and so simple! I love the way you present your videos, too - very clear, and so friendly. Lovely!! Shoshi
Each quilt requires different sizes of squares/rectangles to make the blocks. There are 12 different quilts in the book, plus the bonus of different settings. To get you started, the blue/green quilt on the video used 5 1/4" x 10" for large blocks or 2 7/8" x 5 1/4" for small blocks. Enjoy and thanks for asking. The book with variations will be available August 1st on the Design Originals website.
all I can say is awesome, really I thought 10 minute blocks was great but to do so much, with just a little thought, I can't wait to show my friends your 5 minute technique, I did finis my 10 minute bkock quilt, but this is awesome! ps: my friends loved my 10minute block quilt.
I am so happy to learn this too! Not many will share these techniques but will show their elaborate quilts leaving us to wonder how in the heck they did that. I do appreciate her taking the time to do this so much.
I am going to wait for this new book. I love her 10 minute,10 minute 2 . If fact love all of her books.So far I have 5 of her books. Made so many of her quilts. MaryMay
Thanks so much. The book is at the printer now, may not be available til later this summer though. I do not have an exact date, your local quilt shop may have it on pre-order.
I really love your turorials, you have such beautiful work. I wish you would have someone else teach them, sorry, I have trouble following you or concentrating when you teach. God bless you!
There are several different sizes of blocks and quilts that can be done with this technique. All of the accurate dimensions are listed in each book. I intentionally planned for the point to not exactly touch the next seam, especially for beginning quilters... it is easier for them to have a tiny space after the point than to run the risk of catching the point inside the seam.If you are more experienced the pieces can be adjusted as desired.
2 outside pieces measure 5in x 10in ( you could cut a layer cake in half) For the middle piece to work needs to be 51/4in wide by 10 in long. No matter what size the two outside pieces are the middle must be 1/4 in wider to work properly. E.G. 2 of 6" x 12' and one 61/4' x 12".
+Tony Dickerson Whenever trying a new block, I always do a prototype to check everything out. You can use paper cut to the sizes you'll be using and not waste any of your fabric.
+ Sassletter - Whoa! Thanks for pointing out these correct measurements. Yours is another reason why it pays to read the viewers' comments on tutorials.
Hello, The blocks can be made with many variations in sizes. The youtube shows the basic concept. The book gives definite dimensions for various sizes. I hope this helps.
Thanks and I probably should have David, the UA-cams are many times a companion to the books which have more complete information. I will keep it in mind for future videos....to show that extra step.
I just bought the book, and so glad I watched the video, because the book is a little confusing. Would have liked the directions to be in color, but hopefully I learned enough from the video to be able to make a block and a quilt
Apologies to all of those asking specific questions about measurements, total yardage and other serious quilting issues. Our quilting guru...Suzanne McNeill...has been traveling and giving classes and will be out of the office til the first of November. Hopefully, if you ordered the book you have received it and will find the answer to your question.
The name of all material and manufacturers will be listed in the front of each book. This particular fabric is from Moda. Thank you for ordering the book, happy quilting!!
very beautiful i really like it and i really like + i enjoy the beautiful & simple, the way you shown, a new design in a very simple and beautiful different looks in one... thank you ... :-)
You are a quilting genius! I used to buy all your crafting books, I just got into quilting, lol, so now I'm hunting that stuff!
