Did I hear you say “ the beauty of improperly “? And did you say : “ nothing is the end of the world”?You made my day.
At my very first quilting retreat earlier this year I used your book Stash Statement to make a quilt. Now that I am making literally hundreds of facemasks, I am saving my little scraps and thought I might make a type of improv memory quilt when this is all over with. Thank you so much for your book and the great ideas.
I love your "laid-back" technique and attitude. Thank you for sharing.
Very easy to hear you and understand what you’re saying; not sure why others have an issue with it? It sounds like you’re at an expo or something. I can’t wait to try this!!!

Love this style of quilting.
Great video - so excited to try this. It is nice to have a video to explain your method of using up our scraps and stash. Love your book!!
Love this technique! Ive learned from from you to do more random piecing, thank you. Log cabin its too boring sometimes.
...you see kt again and again, free creating with "let it go, or let it run", its the the way, to stay curious and enjoy the adventure feeling....🕊🌊🌊🌊many greetings from the northsea coast from AnnA with her wonderful handcraft fabric shade, the most beautiful place in this area...💐
Awesome! Thank you. To the point. My first project.
I love the fun look of the improv quilt blocks. Thanks for sharing ❤️
I have used all my bits and piece and made it into a backing on some of my quilts, save a few bob in doing that. And I don't have to throw out much, since the small est pieces goes into stuffed toys and cat beds.
I love that idea!
And thanks! I have some really tiny pieces of fabric that I didn't know what I was going to do with.. and I'm making 2 cat toys today!
I love this.. I usually just make shirts and stuff for myself but I would love to do some quilting over the winter and scraps is the one thing I have a ton of and all the quilting tutorials seem over whelming. My biggest problem with sewing in general is that I have no patience.. This is perfect I cant wait to try it out.. like literally gonna go in my studio now and see what I can do.. thanks for the inspo
Kari D. this is great fun to do this kind of imrov sewing. Post a photo of your completed work, Kelly would love to see it and so would the rest of us! I am in the process of making some improv squares as well from the inspiration I got from this tutorial! ;-}

Thanks for the video. Going to give this a try. Thank you!!
This is fun i love making these quilt doing a crumb quilt and i might put 2 1/2 inch sashing around it and a corner stone
I love this ! I need to learn her technics.
I have always wanted to do this kind of scrappy quilt & thanks so much for the tut!
I think she maybe at a quilt show. Maybe she’s doing a demo and someone is recording her for UA-cam.
Thanks so much for this video!
Very interesting. Thank you. Could you tell me which is the sewing machine you are using?
Any information on the model bernina sewing machine?
Hi ! Thanks for the great video! I am new to quilting, so my fabric scraps are not quilting fabric. They are jeans, t-shirts, curtains, flannel, etc. What do you suggest in terms of mixing and matching fabrics of different weights? Should one block be all the same type of fabric?
Crumb quilting!
What if you don’t have a stash? How should I begin? Thank you
B Nel, you could go to second hand store and randomly pick up pieces of clothing/bed sheets/bed spreads/curtains etc, in colors/patterns you like but should look for pieces that are similar in weight/thickness as I found out sweat shirts and thin blouses for example, don't mix very well. Cut them up and...."make something" LOL
I'm new at it too and find this video very inspiring and will make covers for my dog's bed :-)
Hee-haw LOL
Happy sewing :-)
what does one do if the scraps are not cut on the grain?
👌 mam urs machine superb...which model?
Close captioning cannot make out what is being said at all. :-(
Are your scrappieces cut even ?
Looks like alot of fun, but where do you get all the fabric without spending a fortune since I have never sewn before.
Damaged or stained clothes. I buy sheets from Goodwill for the backing.
I second the thrift store option for the sheets, but I've also gained a lot of fabric from clothes that are just too old to go to the thrift store. You could probably browse the free section in Craigslist and watch for sheets or lots of clothes coming through
@@artsymarsy8480 I've used clothes a lot too, but the cutting time is huge, unless it's a long dress.
I love your scissors am pinky gal cos am a breast cancer patients I want to sew because I want to raise money for the breast cancer awareness I have stage three and I justed wanted to enjoyed for life and enjoying to make something with my hand I just wanted to have my dad back because he teach me how to do counted cross stitch and painting .as well

@Mary Green ... I have read that to fight cancer by a simple and natural way is by not eating animal protein like meat & chicken & stop taking sugar ... because these are foods which keep cancer alive...
You fight it girl x
sure would have enjoyed your recording if I could have heard it better
Hear a tv going very hard to hear you very distractive video oceans of love from Florida
Janice Reeser I think she is demonstrating at a trade show.
Falta plancha entre cuadro y cuadro
no puedo seguir los consejos dados en inglés. no se idiomas
It sounds like a TV in background and hard to hear you
Think she is doing a demo at a show.
Too short a video i loved it lol
Hello. I could not follow your video because of the background noise and difficult to hear on my laptop even on the highest level for audio. Sorry.
No sound
sorry can't hear
Is a noisy room the only place you could have recorded this?
She is at a craft or trade show. When you attend as a customer, you are not as aware of the noise as when you attend as an artisan, imagine 6-10 hours in that noise. Your voice goes quickly too as you try and speak over the din. ❤️

Please speak loudly.I can't hear your voice clearly.Thanks.
