I really enjoyed your video. Great block. Could be done in so many different seasons. I like your start to finish and even reinforcing the pressing at each step and squaring up. I think it never hurts to get those reminders. Even pinning and slowing down our speed when putting our blocks together. I like using my painters tape or my magnet. I find my seams are much straighter. That last second of stitching I was sliding off wrong direction. It is amazing the difference just looking away for a second makes. I enjoyed how you “fixed” your stripe. I find myself not using stripes because a lot of time the print is actually off. Merry Christmas and thanks for a great video
No seams to match up, using up an entire layer cake, AND it’s gorgeous Christmas fabric…can I just say I LOVE THIS QUILT! The star fabric made the whole top pop. Absolutely love it. Thanks Miss Tracy, this is a fun one. Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🤗🤗🤗 Hope you’re enjoying that new grandbaby. ☺️
"Mary Did You Know" brings tears to my eyes. ❤❤❤It is the Christmas Story and the Easter Story at the same time.❤❤❤ Close second is "Angels We Have Heard on High."
I love figgy pudding esp with rum sauce (or hard sauce). It's a cake that is steamed right before it is served. It tastes a lot like mince pie, but more carrot cake- like texture. Your fabric is beautiful. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Your videos give so much joy throughout the year.
“Figgy” in this context means with raisins. If you put your masking tape on the underside of your ruler it forms a “ledge” to butt up against the block fold and helps you be super accurate.
Some time back I found your channel....subscribed and love it! You bring such good humor so we can tell you love what you are doing. You put in a lot of hard work doing this and I appreciate it !! How much? I don't even quilt ! LOL Love sewing, but some day I just might make a lap quilt. Hoping you and family have a wonderful Christmas !!!
Little drummer boy and silent night are my and were my mom’s favorite Christmas songs she passed away 8 years ago right before Christmas n this is the first time since I’ve put up a tree . Your quilt is beautiful Tracy has hope you have a wonderful and merry Christmas
I love the Christmas music! I bought linen sheets for our bed! My husband loves them, I Santa sure he would though. I have also bought linen for the back of a quilt I will make!! Love your videos!!
Such a pretty quilt! There are so many ways you could finish this quilt. You might want to make another one. The big square blocks can frame something special in the center.
Don’t we all have PJ days😂. Beautiful Fabric! I like your choice of pattern, I think it lets each piece of fabric speak. So many beautiful Christmas carols to choose from . I always love Mary Did You Know and Silent Night. Merry Christmas Tracy to you and your family🎄❤️🎄
I have two favorite Christmas songs. Do you remember Napster? I collected 482 different covers of O Holy Night. I’d love to still have them. My other favorite is Angels We Have Heard on High. I learned the alto line while participating in an audition-only work choir years ago. Gorgeous fabric line. 3 Sisters is my favorite. So elegant.
I think I’m gonna have to give this quilt a go, it’s so nice. ‘Little Drummer Boy’ is one of my favorite Christmas songs. Merry Christmas, Tracy, to you and yours!☃️🎄☃️
Sleigh Ride is my favorite, we played it every year for the Christmas concert in high school. Isn’t it so much fun to watch your package go through the ridiculous route to eventually get to you. I decided one package was going to go through every major city in Texas before it arrived in rural south plains.
Figgy pudding, no, but plum pudding , YES! My momma was British, and a few times while I was growing up, she made Plum Pudding. I have her recipe, and I have given it a go a few times. Basically it's a cake with lots of fruit and nuts, it uses suet rather than shortening, and it is steamed instead of baked. It is sooooo good. Now I'm hungry. 😂
The Little Drummer Boy is one of my most favorite Christmas songs. Also, I have never even had a fig, or seen a fig, figgy pudding is a weird phrase to put into a song! I think!
Turned out beautiful. But have you seen the no cutting version of that block? I don't know how to link it but it's from the Sew Charming Quilt Shop and it's called The quickest and easiest quilt block you will ever make. You lay the 5 in square on the 10 in square and fold over two sides and do a 1/4 in seam then open and press then fold the other two sides in and repeat. I did it in a Christmas fabric also. But I cut each square diagonally in half and mixed them up and sewed them back together again. Made it look like picture frames. Just too many ideas out there! Oh, I love the way you folded the blocks in half to square them up. Great technique if you don't have the perfect size square ruler. Will be using that!
Beautiful quilt! I love the fabric. The black border goes well with it! What state are you in, Tracy? I'm in central NY and getting hammered this yr so far with the snow, but not as bad as Watertown or Buffalo!!❤
You're right, thata layer cake is beautiful, love it. I've eaten steamed carrot pudding & used to make it, does that count for figgy pudding? You're a brave quilter for squaring up those blocks folded, and it works out for you, amazing! Not sure I'd be that lucky. The finished quilt is lovley and that border really adds a lot. Merry Christmas!!!
Steamed carrot pudding🤢🤮🥕You go girl LOL it's not for me...although I do love a raw carrot dipped in ranch dressing haha. Merry Christmas my quilty friend!!!🎄

@@TheSewingChannel how about a poinsettia flower quilt pattern. Love the quilt and the Christmas songs. Merry Christmas to you and yours. ☃️🎄
Neither files open once I purchased and downloaded this pattern. I get the message "Can't open file." These aren't PDFs??? Cute pattern, but ...

It totally needed that black to pop for sure....💥 Have a blessed Christmas🙏🏼(looking forward to hangin' with ya at quilt con🎉)
This quilt reminds me of square in a square quilt. The fabric line is really quite beautiful. The quilt is beautiful.
I love “ O, Holy Night.” The line “a thrill of hope” describes my Christmas joy perfectly. Gets to me every time.
And I love Oh Holy Night.
Thank you for this very good video on using a layer cake. You are right, this layer cake was beautiful. Thank you for all your tips. I
The weary world rejoices for yonder breaks a new and glorious morn. Love it too! My very favorite.
Dip a spool of your white cotton thread in coffee. It’s one of the most difficult stains to remove! You should be good.
Favorite Christmas song. Mary Did You Know
I grew up on figgy pudding with a white sweet cream sauce over it. Sooo good
This pattern would make a great quilt as you go
I like your idea of a string of lights.🎄
It’s a cute and quick quilt. Hoping you receive the thread SOON😊
Great easy quilt. Just a tip...don't iron on top of your cutting mat. You don't want it to warp.
Beautiful fabric. Merry Christmas. My favorite is O Holy Night.
Fav Christmas Carol- Joy To The World♥️
Great use of layer cake pkg to show off designs you don’t want to cut up small! TY Tracy🌲🧵
Exactly✅
The trick with the black and white photo is genius. I have not heard that before. Thanks!
"Mary Did You Know" brings tears to my eyes. ❤❤❤It is the Christmas Story and the Easter Story at the same time.❤❤❤
Close second is "Angels We Have Heard on High."
It is still Beautiful AS IS 🌺
Hi Tracy! I had that layer cake and made a Christmas quilt with it. I agree the fabric line is beautiful. Thanks for another great video. ❤

Great idea Dorothy!!!💥
thank you for showing us how to square up in a new way , I'll be doing it that way from now on, thank you again
Not me. I'll do the usual way. It doesn't save any time and may come out wonky if something moves.
Some time back I found your channel....subscribed and love it! You bring such good humor so we can tell you love what you are doing. You put in a lot of hard work doing this and I appreciate it !!

Thank you for your kind support❤
So beautiful! (From Brazil) 🌹
I recently had a Christmas quilt quilted with jingle bells and I love it!
I found you recently through PrairieDustTrail, and I am so happy to find someone who takes the nonsense out of quilting and keeps it real. Thank you!
Beautiful quilt!! I love using a layer cake in this way; it is so much fun.
Thanks Tracy, great quilt. I do however, like listening to you talk rather than more music. You’re fun and interesting.
My mom used to say that black goes with everything!! You did just prove it to me. 😊 Merry Christmas.
I like the idea of the holly berries, but jingle bells would be great as well
Little drummer boy and silent night are my and were my mom’s favorite Christmas songs she passed away 8 years ago right before Christmas n this is the first time since I’ve put up a tree . Your quilt is beautiful Tracy has hope you have a wonderful and merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you Karen!🙏🏼

My favorite Christmas song is silver bells. Love your Christmas quilt and I think you should quilt it with string of lights that would be perfect
Love this quilt! I always look forward to your videos!!
Pretty! Try linen towels too! Fabulous! Love to make linen wash mitts because they leave your skin so soft! Where did you get your linen sheet?

It’s pretty. Love the linen too! I’m sad that momma quit sewing.
Very Nice! I find it easy to put a line of painters tape at my cut line on the ruler.❤
My friends in Geneva left for Arizona that morning of the snow storm about an hour before they closed 90! I love this quick easy pattern Tracy!!
Lovely quilt!
Such a pretty quilt! There are so many ways you could finish this quilt. You might want to make another one. The big square blocks can frame something special in the center.

Thank you Tracey for those tips about squaring the block. First time I’ve seen it done that way. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I have two favorite Christmas songs. Do you remember Napster? I collected 482 different covers of O Holy Night. I’d love to still have them.
My other favorite is Angels We Have Heard on High. I learned the alto line while participating in an audition-only work choir years ago.

Enjoying the replay ❤
I ❤ your finished quilt top.
Absolutely loved this video. You are my favorite quilting quilter and Merry Christmas,
Favorite Christmas-- O Holy Night

Absolutely beautiful! ❤❤
Thank you for the fun pattern and excellent tips!
Do circles since it’s a square block quilt. Merry Christmas and God Bless you and your family!

I love this fabric! Made a throw size quilt with a Jolly Bar from FQS. Just 1/2 of a layer cake.
Perhaps quilt poinsettia? This is beautiful, and I like the black frame!
This layer cake is very pretty.
I have never had figgy pudding and honestly was never clear on what it actually is... until now! :)
Sweet!
Figgy pudding is like fruit cake, full of raisins, currents, candied orange and lemon peel and chopped walnuts
Love your quilt
The Little Drummer Boy is one of my most favorite Christmas songs. Also, I have never even had a fig, or seen a fig, figgy pudding is a weird phrase to put into a song! I think!
I love O Holy Night 😊
So so cute! I love it😊
Will try making figgy pudding this year! Thanks!
I love the idea of holly berries for the quilting. The farthest I've gotten with free motion quilting is straight lines lol
I would love to meet you ladies! Just can't afford it!
Beautiful ❤ TiP I use a wall for basting 😉
Holly berries and poinsettia flowers
That sounds very pretty!! I'm going to practice it and see if I can do it..thanks ⁕
Jingle bells is my favorite carol.
Спасибо за интересное видео, обязательно сошью такое одеяло!
Love your Christmas Quilt. Sorry about the Sand Thread. I was thinking about Poinsettias!

Northern Ohio..we got hit a couple x already this year❄
@TheSewingChannel well hello neighbor! I didn't realize you were so close🤗
The Little Drummer Boy
Lovevthe quilt and pattern. I know your love of linen, but why a 3-inch binding? Silent Night with all 4 verses!
You're right, thata layer cake is beautiful, love it. I've eaten steamed carrot pudding & used to make it, does that count for figgy pudding? You're a brave quilter for squaring up those blocks folded, and it works out for you, amazing! Not sure I'd be that lucky. The finished quilt is lovley and that border really adds a lot.

Steamed carrot pudding🤢🤮🥕You go girl LOL it's not for me...although I do love a raw carrot dipped in ranch dressing haha. Merry Christmas my quilty friend!!!🎄
Beautiful! How about poinsettias or holly.
