I am excited to make this in greens, blues and cream or white for my sister as she requested wall hangings instead of bed quilts for her new home. I am going to make her several different patterns plus a jelly roll rug plus a throw quilt for her living room. She is my youngest sister, single from a messy divorce and her youngest son still lives with her. Should make her very happy, I hope!! Thank you, Jenny, for all your tutorials and the fun we have watching them.
I love this pattern! It's great because it's just two easy blocks but the layout makes it look more complicated than it is. Thanks for sharing another great video!
Oh Jenny l never thought l would get excited about quilting!! However watching you and the way you do it just inspires me so much lm like a kid with a candy bar!! I have just gathered materials to do a Dresden Plate. So excited!! Thank you for sharing your talents. God bless! Big hugs!!
Jenny I love your videos!! I like to watch them in the morning with my coffee to get me motivated to get my day started. I'm working on a baby quilt at the moment, using the disappearing four patch video you did a while back. Looking forward to seeing you in Waco!
Cute, quick and easy. Way to go Jenny another great project. When I look at the finished quilt, it looks like tumbling blocks (second row). The square in a square print is the top of the block and the base is the white. Love it.
Jenny, I just love your videos! your videos inspired me to learn how to quilt. however, I have always had a hard time with my blocks being square. I'm so excited about the new tool I just can't wait to order it. Keep the videos coming they help me get through the day and relieves a lot of stress God Bless you
You were telling us about the different sizes for enlarging the quilt. How many charm packs would I need to make a king? I love all of your tutorials! I love STARS!!!! Wednesday and Friday's are my favorite days, cause JENNY and I get to have a visit!!! ;) My husband always ask, "Well, what did you learn today!!
The first thing I saw was diamonds and chevron. I wish I had the time to do all of your patterns I love them all. I love crafting. My hang up is having tops and never finishing the rest. Maybe one day
Dear Jenny , thank you for explaining how the new square up triangle ruler works , i have always had trouble with hst maybe this will end that problem. Keep your fingers crossed.
Really cute and very easy to make. Think I'll make it with a layer cake and a 2.5" inner border. Perhaps I'll sew the standing block like an argyle sock using a variety of brightly colored threads...
Hi. I noticed you were backstitching (anchoring) sometimes......is that a new "rule" now, or is there something specific about this quilt pattern that makes it necessary? I can't wait to try it!!
Sandra Kleiser Black when you anchor it, the needle is down to hold fabric in place while you nest the seam your going to sew. I'm not for sure, but this is what I see her doing it for. Have a great day.
Are you still using the Jane Machine? I just received the new Slotted Trimmers! I looked at the back, but didn't notice the difference! Thanks for explaining the difference, as I didn't have my glasses on! I still tell everyone about your Videos! Cindi 😀
Jenny, which ruler do you like better: the block loc or the the perfect slotted Trimmer? I am worried that if you don't press the blocks open before you square them up, then they could turn out distorted and you won't realize it. I know you've tried them both, so I'd love to hear your opinion on which one you like better. Thank you so much.
Hi Jenny. I love the quilt. When were you in Australia ? What state ? I hope you come back as there are many of us that would love to attend any of your appearances. Kim from Victoria Australia
Susan Hofer A layer cake has 10" squares. So if you also double the widths and lengths of all the border strips, then the quilt should finish at 78" by 88".
The wheels started turning as I was watching the square blocks being made, and I started coming up with ideas. Couldn't the squares be made simply as an Exploding Block? I wonder if that would still turn out the correct size. I may try that to see if it would work, but I think it will, because it's supposed to end up being 5 1/2" square. I think it will turn out. I'm going to try it.
Alice Borghoff because the darker side will show through to the front of your quilt if you iron it to the light side. Just a little detail you learn to make your final project look nicer. Have a great day
This quilt is adorable! I’d have to make it a little bigger, but that’s just my preference. I also have noticed your wool pressing mat. I just bought one, and love it! Also, I’ve seen the triangle trimmer tool, and will be buying one! Just wondering why there are two?
All I see at 11:20 is flowers. One would need to either make some narrow stems (via double fold bias) or even satin stitch the stems if I didn't want to bother with dbl fold bias. I'd put a background fabric "block" in between each flower/leaves block (and alternate their placement between rows). And maybe I might even use a light tone-on-tone or a light fabric with tiny flowers for the entire quilt's background fabric. So ... one charm pack for the floral and leaves, 2 charm packs for the background (plus 1/4 yd for inner border); about 1/4? yd to make the stems; 1 yd? for outer border; and about 4.5? yds for backing; 3/4 -1 yd for binding. Just brainstorming here for a different look. Does anyone else see the flowers?
I rewatched the video, and now I see the flowers too! So the Chevron's below the square make the leaves and the square makes the flower, right? What about using green rick rack for the stems and choosing green fabrics for the "leaves"? I think that would make a really cute quilt, especially to hang on the wall! Great idea !
+Susan Mei - Thanks. I really like your green rick rack idea for the stems! But I'm too lazy to form the leaves with rick rack :-) Oh, and as long as "we've" already got the rick rack, maybe have a wider white border with two shades of green rick rack swirling down the middle. OR: If I wasn't making a large quilt, for the border I might use a bunch of white charm squares and sew an X in rick rack from corner to corner of each charm and then sew those charms in strips for the border to make it look like lattice work around the "flower garden". Yeh, I like the lattice better than the swirls in the border :-) One more thing . . . I'd use tiny dots of glue to anchor the rick rack down before sewing the stem lines for the flowers and X's in the charm borders.
Golfinho Paciente when I see a quilt tutorial from a country that uses cm’s, I google the measurements into inches. I wish all countries would either change, or in the case of quilt tutorials, mention both measurements! That would be good.
Thank you for the quick reply :) I have already made blocks that I learned with Jenny and adapted them to the measures I am used to, but since I am a beginner I have some fear of making mistakes when doing the conversion :) I love your videos and I've learned a lot in this new way of Patchwork
Lucília Pessoa I got a pink measuring tape in the fabric section at Walmart. I had both inches and cm as I watch videos that are made using cm. Now if I like a pattern,I just look at my tape measure Have a great day.
Hi, Lou! You can find this ruler by clicking on the link below. www.missouriquiltco.com/shop/detail/97321/new-leaf-stitches/kari-carr/clearly-perfect-slotted-trimmers
I love how Jenny keeps things real. If things don't turn out perfect she tells you why and how to fix it. So relatable!
I am excited to make this in greens, blues and cream or white for my sister as she requested wall hangings instead of bed quilts for her new home.

5 tonight. I don't know how you keep these coming and teaching us new stuff. Your so good at teaching. Thank you.
I love this pattern! It's great because it's just two easy blocks but the layout makes it look more complicated than it is. Thanks for sharing another great video!
Needed another quick baby quilt idea...thanks, Jenny!
Well Jenny you have done it again. So simple and beautiful. Thank you
Thank you. I'm a beginner and you inspire me so much.
I purchased those slotted trimmers - that is the BEST idea!!! I love HST so much - this will be used immediately!!!
Oh Jenny l never thought l would get excited about quilting!! However watching you and the way you do it just inspires me so much lm like a kid with a candy bar!! I have just gathered materials to do a Dresden Plate.
So excited!! Thank you for sharing your talents. God bless! Big hugs!!
We can't wait to see your Dresden plate! We are so glad you are enjoying our tutorials, thank you for your support!
Diwondermum.....Jenny's enthusiasm is so infectious! She is absolutely my favorite Quilter!
Hi, Jenny, really love your videos, I am a fairly new to quilting, and I have learned so much from you.
Jenny I love your videos!! I like to watch them in the morning with my coffee to get me motivated to get my day started. I'm working on a baby quilt at the moment, using the disappearing four patch video you did a while back. Looking forward to seeing you in Waco!
It's Friday again and I am in Love again! I think I'll have to make this a bit larger for a baby quilt the baby can use as he gets older.
Cute, quick and easy. Way to go Jenny another great project. When I look at the finished quilt, it looks like tumbling blocks (second row). The square in a square print is the top of the block and the base is the white. Love it.
Love it. Your teaching method is great. Thank you
Another quick & easy quilt! I love it.
Love this quilt and the colors !!!!

Love this design. Think I will try with 10" pre-cuts!
Very beautiful colors!
Just ordered the ruler. I struggle with squaring so this looks great. Can't wait to try this pattern and my new squaring tool.
I have that square up ruler. I love it!! Fabulous ruler, well worth the purchase
thank you very much very beautiful model
Dear Jenny , thank you for explaining how the new square up triangle ruler works , i have always had trouble with hst maybe this will end that problem. Keep your fingers crossed.
You make quilting so much fun!
I just love watching your video I've learned a lot from you
OMG!!!!! A few days ago I was thinkng about how to figur a shape looks like that shape 😲😲😲😲😲😲
Oh. This size is more doable! I would like more smaller quilts in your tutorials, or options of sizes if you do larger ones.
Really cute and very easy to make. Think I'll make it with a layer cake and a 2.5" inner border. Perhaps I'll sew the standing block like an argyle sock using a variety of brightly colored threads...
Love this and that ruler
Just ordered the Slotted Trimmer because I also have problems with squaring off my squares. If Jenny is excited, so will I
Love this Treasure
If you ever come to the UK, please come to the East Midlands so I can see you. :D
I bought the trimmers and they are wonderful.
I love this one, should be oh so easy
Jenny has renewed Enthusiasm after her trip to Australia. Or maybe that is just her in teacher mode. Either way job well done
I had fun making a smaller version of this. Thanks for the inspiration. Would love to show it to you but don't know how.
Have 10” package of purple shades perfect for me, love it. Thanks again Jenny Do you ever take a break, it’s hard keeping up with you ??
Isn't she amazing? She's doing what she loves so it never feels like work to her. Jealous! Lol
Love this will have to do this one 😎👍💗

You were in Australia? How did I not know this? Will you come back again?
Jenny, which ruler do you like better: the block loc or the the perfect slotted Trimmer?

I know you've tried them both, so I'd love to hear your opinion on which one you like better. Thank you so much.
Hi Jenny. I love the quilt. When were you in Australia ? What state ? I hope you come back as there are many of us that would love to attend any of your appearances. Kim from Victoria Australia
Eleanor Burns has the same ruler except for the slot for cutting the dog ears off.
Great tutorial. Love to watch Jenny. Two (2) questions. What babylock machine are you using? What foot do you have on the machine? Thanks much guys.
Hi, Kathleen! Jenny is using the Jane Baby Lock sewing machine. It's a great machine to work with!
How do you determine what your finished size is....if you used a layer cake, what size would the finish block be?
Susan Hofer A layer cake has 10" squares. So if you also double the widths and lengths of all the border strips, then the quilt should finish at 78" by 88".
I think I heard her say 6" finished for a 10" square
Thank you....that is what I was wondering
The wheels started turning as I was watching the square blocks being made, and I started coming up with ideas. Couldn't the squares be made simply as an Exploding Block? I wonder if that would still turn out the correct size. I may try that to see if it would work, but I think it will, because it's supposed to end up being 5 1/2" square. I think it will turn out. I'm going to try it.
I just love your tutorials, very detailed for a person like me who needs it😉. Why iron to the dark side? Also, is that a Baby Lock, if so what model?
Hi, Alice! Jenny is using a Baby Lock and it's the Jane.
Missouri Star Quilt Company why iron to the dark side? I don’t understand why . Thank you
Alice Borghoff because the darker side will show through to the front of your quilt if you iron it to the light side. Just a little detail you learn to make your final project look nicer. Have a great day
Where in Australia were you Jenny what state I didn't even know you were here Missed out meeting you big time
This quilt is adorable! I’d have to make it a little bigger, but that’s just my preference. I also have noticed your wool pressing mat. I just bought one, and love it! Also, I’ve seen the triangle trimmer tool, and will be buying one! Just wondering why there are two?
GrandmaPatty49 She mentioned one was to square up triangles cut on whole inches and the other has lines to square on the half inch.
quilt in a day had a trimer something like that , it did not have the slots, I want one
Debra Kirkwood , I’ve got the QIAD ruler, it’s fantastic for squaring up but it haven’t got those handy wee slots. 🐢
Love the quilt, What backing fabric did you use?
Would it be easier and for some of us more accurate to snowball a square than to piece the 4 HST’s together?
I am challenged also when it comes to squaring up my blocks. Will that Slotted Trimmer work if you are not doing half square traingles?
❤️
What sewing machine is she using in this video? I know its a Baby Lock but what model?
Hi, Rose O! Jenny is using the Jane Baby Lock. It's a great machine to work with!
Hi Jenny, can you please tell me how much fabric is needed for the back?
what size block did it end up with? 5" or 5 1/2?
where did you get your half square ruler I can't find one
I'm sad. :'( they don't ship the slotted trimmers to our state (Hawaii). So bummed.
Good morning finally we got sun from Newfoundland Canada now that one is pretty less complicated do you answer you own chats
👍👍👍👍

When will you have this one added to your app
Hi, Jessica! It sure be added to our app soon.
Jenny no se escribir ni hablar inglés pero dedo saber si tu vendes el kit de reglas por envío y cuanto valen también el cortador gracias
What kind of cutting mat do you use?
Hi Jenny
I love your videos;)
Is it possible to put the measurements, too, in cm !?
In Portugal we use the meter as a measure.
Thanks
Golfinho Paciente when I see a quilt tutorial from a country that uses cm’s, I google the measurements into inches. I wish all countries would either change, or in the case of quilt tutorials, mention both measurements! That would be good.
You can choose which size square to start with. Pick any size, but keep it consistent throughout.
Thank you for the quick reply :)
I have already made blocks that I learned with Jenny and adapted them to the measures I am used to, but since I am a beginner I have some fear of making mistakes when doing the conversion :)
I love your videos and I've learned a lot in this new way of Patchwork
Lucília Pessoa I got a pink measuring tape in the fabric section at Walmart. I had both inches and cm as I watch videos that are made using cm. Now if I like a pattern,I just look at my tape measure Have a great day.

Nothing new!
