Love the history & love your primitive gatherings fabric quilt...I am with you on being skeptical of her fabrics but they are just so classic they always look good in a quilt
Stephanie, Thank You for talking to me about 1/2 square triangles and how to use a regular ruler to square them up. Living on a limited income makes it difficult to have each of the rulers that others say you need. Yes, it would be nice to have but I tend to spend my money on fabric rather than all these other rulers. This block turned out wonderful. I am going to invest in your magic juice. That makes such a flat seam! I appreciate your videos, Thani You!!
Stephanie thanks for explaining how to make the Jacob’s Ladder. I have not made that block. The block and quilt will be a perfect and special gift for my husband who is a pastor. It has been on my list for his next quilt but I have not seen anyone make it. So this was a huge blessing. I do have a pattern that I ear marked it but have not looked at how it’s made. Thank you so much for the tutorial. I’m still working on the Mosaic Star and I just need to make the points around the centers.
Oops forgot to say I’m liking this Underground Railroad Sampler too! I need to purchase fabric because those colors are not in my stash but I like those colors too! ~Martha
👏If there's any " old school" folks I wonder if a local library might have the book too. It is a really pretty block & the history is interesting. That book has been in my amazon saved list for awhile for that very reason , looked like a good reference . Myself, doing genealogy for years I understand lost history & it is so tragic . thank you for attempting to keep history alive 🤗 BTW it's a race for me ... comment before the video ends lol but then I hit post & what do ya know I have more to say 🤣 You don't need to respond to every comment I make ,I understand I'm spamming & your busy PLUS still healing 🙏 Love Ya girl!
From my Google search I found this> #1 - Jacob's Ladder - It has an alternating path of dark and light that can be used to show a direction. The slaves could know which way to go by the angle at which the quilt was placed outside the home of the abolitionist.
This is a great series, Stephanie. Keeping history alive is important!
Thank you Stephanie for another interesting tutorial on the Underground Railroad.
Thank you Stephanie. Really love the history lessons you are quilting into this series.

@ColeenSewsChats that's a great idea, the library. I love history and find this myth vs reality around the Underground Railroad fascinating!

Cool!
Hello
Hi there!
What a great idea! Are you using a particular fabric line?
Thanks! I am using fabric from Moda by Kansas Troubles. I'm sorry, but I can't remember the name of the line, but they make a lot of reproductions.
Loving the fabric choices! What line are you using?
Thank you!
