    Do NOT trim your blocks or batting down! We will do that in Part 2! ua-cam.com/users/shorts3wRvw6IjYQA

    Agh! She’s so sweet! I had 3 male feral cats that I feed and about 3 weeks ago I noticed another cat. Then I found out she’s got 2 kittens. Not good! I hope I can get ahold of a gentleman that traps feral cats to get them fixed. Pray that all will work out. As long as there all fixed I don’t mind feeding them. Love your QAYG.

      Oh Linda, Only Barney and her first litter (Dash, Gray & Slash) are fixed. The rest weren't friendly enough for me to get my hands on and we lost our county vet and there are no low cost vets or spay/neuter clinics around so mine are, unfortunately, reproducing. This area desperately needs a mobile spay/neuter vet. It cost me $700 to get Dash, Gray & Slash fixed. I just can't afford it. There were 13 cats at dinner tonight and there are tiny kittens all over the place. I don't know what to do.
      Thanks for watching. I'm so loving learning about QAYG!

      @@70acres man, that sure is expensive! I told JoAnn about my situation. She lists all the cats and dogs on Facebook that are missing or someone found trying to find the owner. She told me that Jerry will come by with a trap and they will take care of everything. Then they will bring her back to my house. Hopefully, I can get in touch with Jerry tomorrow. Pray, that she will go into the trap whenever he comes out with it. We had 2 armadillos trying to eat the dry cat food tonight. My husband squirted them with water. I can’t afford to feed them, too. Mark read that they don’t like Cayenne pepper. I guess I’ll have to buy some and sprinkle it around the porch. Hope it works. Yeah, your area definitely needs a low cost spay and neuter clinic. The only cat that comes to me is already fixed because his ear is clipped. Wish the other ones would let me pet them.

      I reevaluated cutting the batting down. I'm not trimming any of the blocks until they are done and then we will proceed with joining. I'm so enjoying learning QAYG. It is so freeing knowing I can't physically man handle big quilts through a machine to quilt them! Thanks for watching, Anna!

    Oh my gosh, I loooove your sewing room. Especially at time 5:37. It looks just like mine, only yours maybe a little more organized then mine. It warms my heart to see a real sewing room instead of a photo ready, perfectly spotless one. Love your video's.

      Thanks for watching, Ronda! That room started out as a "library" but when my health went south I realized I couldn't walk over to my studio. I moved my sewing to the house so I could keep sewing. Those shelves were for books and collectables.

    I’m sure we use a very similar technique for the quilt as you go. I cut my batting about 1/8 inch larger than what I want the square to be. Then the backing piece works out perfectly.

      @@70acres I just checked out Monica on you tube. Another person to subscribe to. Lol. I use the technique from Missouri star on the tutorial Jenny does that shows vintage hankies. Can do any size. I totally agree with you, we can’t keep wrestling with those big, heavy quilts. I will check Monica’s tutorials today.

    I am a little confused. You place the yellow square off center. Are you still doing the same number of light/dark strips on each side around it? If so, wouldn't you need to use some narrower strips on the short side? Or do you stop on a side once you have filled that space?

    • @70acres
      @70acres  Рік тому

      Thanks for watching, Marty! I am making wonky log cabins where the yellow hearth stone will be in different locations. I'm not counting strips so I just do the 2 lights & 2 darks until the space is filled.
      I did rethink the blocks a bit and am now working with the original size of batting and drawing a chalk outline on the batting so I know how big to go. And I'm not trimming the blocks to size until all the blocks are done.
