Thank you for keeping tutorials online. Melanie was amazing and made it possible for people like me to sew.
A beautiful woman and a great teacher, thank you for keeping her Chanel going.
I have just gotten interested in paper piecing. And I was just thrilled that Melanie's video popped up on my feed! Thank you so much for keeping her work online for all of us to enjoy.
Missing you dear Melanie X😢😢😢
The first thing I ever made was a hexagon pin cushion like this. It was hard work! But it was like initiation... once I did that my Grandma let me move onto a quilt which was thankfully much easier! Minimal hand sewing for the win! xx
That is so fun!
jazzyrobot What did your grandma think was a good first time quilt? I'm a beginner and have searched high and low for answers to this question. Thank you! 😄
I always recommend patchwork for first time quilts ;) 4-6 inch blocks or a precut charm pack is great too!
I gave my granddaughter 5" squares for a doll blanket, now we are on the 10" squares. She is going on 5 July 1st, so too young for cutting. Have you looked through Melanie's feed? Maybe try , Google - Amy Smart, Diary of a Quilter.
I am working on a grandmother's flower garden bed quilt (it has taken me a few years). All I have left is the binding!
Great job! Your tutorial was so helpful. I just started making quilts after 40 years of sewing everything else under the sun. I watched a lot of Sue Daley's videos, but I've learned more from you today! Can't wait for part 2! Thanks!
Oh yay! Glad it was helpful and useful!
Great tutorial! I really appreciate the upclose view of whip stitching the hexagons together.
I didn't realize how simple this can be, I'm excited to try it! Thank you!
Duh, just bend the paper!! Thank you! I was looking everywhere for some magical formula on what order to put them together! Lol!! 😂👍💕
Miss you so much, dear Melanie.
Oh my gosh. Best tutorial I’ve found!
I've always wondered how these quilts were pieced together :) so clever!
Hey Everyone! I was thrilled to bring you this new tutorial series, I have had so many requests to show how to do English paper piecing! Part 2 will be out Friday, enjoy! Thumbs up if you love the history behind quilts too!!
I like this setting of you sitting and talking rather than the other setup you usually do when you are talking :)
My first time on your channel and learning about EPP! Thank you, excited to give it a try!
Okay, thanks to your tutorial I have fallen in love with EPP. Something I thought I would never enjoy. I would love more videos on this Method. Like types of projects you could use the hexagon shapes for. Also found some super cute shapes like hyacinths and diamond blocks but having s hard time finding the templates for them. Great video as usual!
Thank you for this video. I was taught to sew towards myself and from leg to right. I am right handed.
I love your tutorials. They are very clear and easy to understand. Thank you! 😊
Love this!!!! I have paper piecing supplies and started but lost my confidence. You're video is great and I'm ready to try it again!!!
you always have the cutest fabric!
Miss you Melanie 🙏
Thank you and beautiful fabric.
Melanie…😢😢😢😢❤️
I am excited about trying this!
Beautiful closeup of the stitching
RIP Melanie!!!
A glue stick??? Ah why hasn't anyone told me before? This looks so much easier than hand basting them all. I will be using this method going forward. Thank you!
Elaine Ronning She IS still using needle and thread all the way around it. Did you not see that or am I misunderstanding what you meant? Ty!😃
She is talking about the initial part of gluing the fabric to the paper, but yes you are right you still hand stitch them all the way around. The glue part was traditionally done with hand basting stitches ;)
Oh awesome!! You will love this way!
Cristy Fincher from Purple Daisy Quilting has a tutorial on it. She also has a Craftsy class.
Elle Groover the old fashioned way these were done was using thread to attach the fabric to the paper. The very first step, not the second. You'd use a long stitch that you'd either sew through the papers then through the corners of the fabric or you'd only sew through the fabric but use more stitches. It takes for-ev-er. And if you sew into the paper you have to cut everything before taking the papers out.
Wow great instructions. Thankyou
I am new at EPP and I have been practicing and I am using the glue method. My problem is that when I complete a flower it does not lay flat. Can you help me with this? Thank you!
I always lineout all the hexis on the fabric... otherwise there is just SO much waste...
Could you please send a link to part 2 - thanks!!
Miss you.
Your video was very well done however, having just finished the GFG portion of a quilt I'm working on with over 1200 pieces and having used a washable glue stick, I feel I should mention that it's so much easier to hand stitch the little hexagons together if you remove the paper pieces from the hexagons as soon as they are completely surrounded by other little hexagons as this gives you more flexibility in manipulating the fabric to add additional ones. Also, remember you have to wash the quilt top and iron all the little selvages back into place before you can add the batting and backing which will then allow you to remove all the paper pieces to enable you to ultimately quilt because it is virtually impossible to remove them without washing.
Good to know ahead of time, my local quilt shop did a demo of EPP, so of course I dove in!
Love it
This was a really nice video to watch. Thank you :)
Thank you so much, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
This is so cool, I've heard of paper piercing before but had no idea what it was, can't wait for the next video!!
Thank you so much! Next video will be out Friday!
LOVE your nail polish color. Can you share what it is? Love the video too. ❤️
Very interesting, I like it.
Thanks for sharing. I got all my stuff from a quilt shop. The only thing I am having trouble with knotting and the thread keeps coming out of my needle. They told me to use superior 60 weight polyester. So not sure how long I will do these, getting tired of losing my thread out of the needle
Hi, Melanie. Your quilting stories are just fascinating. You are truly a doll when quilting. Can you make a pink flower quilt? I appreciate it. Have a good day, Melanie. 💖💖💖
Thank you Byron! Have a great day as well!
I know this video is old but do you remember where you got that blue and white floral print? It's soooo pretty!
Can you pls post a link to part 2. Cant find it
I really love this. Thank you 🙏 I’m will ask you, watt kind of paper can I use? When I will make my own hexagones🥰
Marie, Melanie passed away recently due to cancer.. you can use cardstock to make your own or you can buy pre-made hexagon templates
@@UsernameUnkwn21 I’m so sorry 😢.
Thank you for your answer🙏
Beauty am gonna try
Thank you so much for this tutorial! Which brand of a nice thread do you recommended ?
thread for the hand work? I have a Gutterman polyester thread or coates and clark hand quilting thread, there are lots of great ones out there!
What fabrics are you using in this video? Love the pinks and yellows!
All of the fabrics you see are from Art Gallery Fabrics, Capsules - Take Shape and Wonderful Things by Bonnie Christine ;)
Thank you!!
❤️❤️
Great timing - I am working on a small hexie project now. I did a big quilt last year. They are so much fun. Is there a benefit to doing hexies this way over machine piecing? I have an acrylic template from my scrapbooking days that I use to trace the shape on the fabric then I cut and sew together in the same order you described. Seems to work well but everyone else says this should be done by hand!
yes, agreed most people encourage this way because you can get the stitches so tiny that the look is better. A lot of people like these for portable projects too...I say do it how you like best!
Melanie Ham I should try them that way. Then my edges will be turned under and wont fray. I applique them with a small blanket stitch to help prevent that, but I'm sure they eventually will
اسلام عليكي اينا اجد هذه الكتوب
Não entendo porque costurar com linha vermelha, se pode costurar com a branca ou bege e não aparecer tanto, como aparece o vermelho???
Where can I find the next video?
What is that paper is it fusible by water???
Melanie passed away due to cancer.. no the paper is not water soluble..u need to remove it after all sides are sewn
🥺❤️
😍😍😍😍😍😍
Sure miss her
Such a cute magazine but to subscribe it cost $75 a year! Yikes!
I totally understand, I was a little skeptical at first too and had them send me a copy to review before I worked with them - having it ad free is surprisingly nice, and it's amazing quality, but I get it!
That's a great idea! Maybe I should request a free copy first! :-) I think they have it a Barnes and Nobles so I can always pop my head in a store, find it on a shelf and flip through it. I love the thought of snuggling up with a cup of tea and reading those lovely stories! Thank you for your amazing video's! I totally "Stalk" your instagram, websites, classes and tutorials! You make quilting FUN!!!!!!
