Today I'm showing you how to make my
#12 Home Town Quilt Block in 5" and also 10" size.
I am using my latest fabric collection HOME TOWN designed by me and produced and distributed by the fabulous Riley Blake Designs.
I have given you the cutting recipe for both sizes below so be sure and click until the entire description of this video is visible below.
I made blocks 1 thru 10 to go into the HOME TOWN SEW ALONG QUILT which took place on my blog.

Each tutorial I'll be showing you just one of fourteen blocks.
I'm also going to make 16 blocks of each of the 5" size to make a quilt for my bed....and I'm making the 10" blocks for a table runner.
Of course I'll show & tell you all about both the quilt and the runner!
I'm taking you along with me on this journey as I sew Home Town Blocks each time on my vintage featherweight sewing machines.
Thank you for joining me today:)
I enjoy spending time with you in my sewing room & I hope that you enjoy our time together too!!

I like the “sewing with friends” because that’s how I feel, watching UA-cam tutorials while I’m sewing.
Thank You Lori! I have been enjoying this series so much. These are wonderful blocks that can be used in so many different ways. & YES! it is so hard to explain to "non-quilty" friends how much Pure Joy I get from cutting up fabric & sewing it back together again, playing with color & shape.
You are so organized and orderly! You definitely do everything with intention! It is very inspiring. I also love it that you don't rush. Thanks for the video!
❤
I really like how this one turned out. I’m using the Mercantile fabric and it is gorgeous ❤
My understanding of tailors blocks are that they hold the heat in, so that the fabric and thread have time to fully relax. You can't maintain the heat with the iron because it would scorch the fabric, but the wood blocks let you keep the fabric heated for longer without burning it, while also applying weight/pressure to flatten it.
Love these 5 1/2” blocks. I’m in the process of making a quilt like yours, but I’m only on block 2. Love all of your Sew Your Stash videos. I return to them over and over again. Thank you Lori!
My daughter likes to play count the clappers when we watch your videos. ❤ She said, " I think people must have not known she already had clappers and each gotten her one for Christmas. 😂😂❤️ Thank you for all you do. I have learned so much from you and my accuracy is improving!
I am a true believer in "quilting physics" & have a real desire to sometimes stack my clappers for the extra weight. I really hope to make this quilt... I've kept screenshots of all the "recipes" & as soon as I've got a free spot in my many WIP's, I hope to get started on it. Thanks for sharing all of these blocks.
Thank you for everything you share it very appreciated
It's going to be a great quilt
Your videos are wonderful very well put together and you don’t come off as knowing everything even though I think you do. I love your taste in fabrics and your designs that you do yourself and of course the blocks are all really really nice. Please continue doing your scrap happy Quilt I wish you nothing but continued success and good health.
I love this block-so simple and yet full of possibilities. I have several quilts going at the moment and fight the urge to start this one every time you release a new tutorial. Regardless, I always set aside time to watch every episode because you inspire me to keep sewing on my projects. (Right now I’m not making much progress on my quilts because I have Christmas gifts in the works and am determined to have them done at least a few days early this year. I knit and basket weave too so it’s always a juggling act trying to decide which project is most pressing or which hobby I prefer on any given day.
I also “cut one day” and “sew on another” as you do. I’m always so excited to be starting a new project!
I never thought of it that way before, but that’s exactly what I do too. I find after careful cutting, I need to do something less exacting or I tend to make errors in whatever I am doing.
I love your tutorials; thank you so much for sharing your talents with us.
I like the idea of a cutting day and a sewing day . More efficient use of time. Or even if not whole days at least blocks of prep time then sew sew sew, fun fun fun. I do enjoy the cutting and setting it up in blocks ready to go!
Always fun
I made all the blocks last year for the remix mini series with your cozy Christmas fabric. This year I sewed the blocks together and added a border and machine quilted it. I used the red bee plaids wide back for backing. It will be for my grand daughter’s 12th birthday Dec 7th.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I've sewn garments for 60 years and just started quilting in the last 3 years. I'm always searching for more knowledge.
Was strolling for easy patchwork for beginners. And I'm glad I found you. Love all the blocks you've created. Love your sewing corners, so organised. My prep days when I'm at son's place minding my granddaughters. And do the sewing at home. Thank you for all details for the blocks. Love from Singapore 🇸🇬
thank you
Lori,
You are such a welcoming teacher/instructor . I throughly enjoy your process of color selection into your block design. Thank you for all that you do. Love the seams so easy guide. Using leaders and Enders all the time bonus as bonus projects plus reducing the dog ears eating my blocks .
Thank you
Very pretty
absolutely love to watch you! thank you for taking me to my happy place!!
You have taught me so much. I now sew bonus blocks of small pieces per some of your designs. I love your happy colors. Thanks so very much for all the lovely blocks and information on how to sew them.
This is a beautiful block. I love watching and picking up pointers. Blessings. 🥰🥰🥰
I love this series. It is amazing how far these little scraps can go. Thanks for that tip, I have been able to have a lot of just the right color for the scrappy blocks. Ina) my sewing of garments over the years, it would have been useful on many fabrics to have starters and ender pieces. It had to wait until I started quilting and learned it from you. Now I have my own vintage Pyrex dish to hold them. One day, I bet I will plan a bonus quilt! Thanks for all you have taught this older sewer.
I enjoy watching your videos while I sew. It does feel like a visit even if I'm working on something totally different. ❤
Lori, You are sew informative and inspirational. If I'm not feeling in the mood to sew, I'll sit and watch one of your tutorials; and, suddenly I'm cutting up fabric to make the blocks along with you! Thank you for all you do!
Yes I love watching you sew and have learned so much.
Love your tutorials Lori. You always do great.
You are such an inspiration to me. I eagerly wait for each of your new videos! I am so thankful for all that you do for the quilting world.
I ❤ spending time with you. Always❤️
Love that block too. I'm now testing every unit because I don't trust myself! LOL! Thank you Lori. xx
I am enjoying your tutorials. Thank you so much for sharing your time.
Lori, your demonstration is first class.
I just watched your tutorial sitting here with a bowl of popcorn enjoying the process of the block. You do such an amazing job each and every time.
Thank you Lori for the latest bonus block. I always enjoy your tutorials. 😎🇦🇺
I'm so happy you make these tutorials, I learn alot, finished the hometown quilt, my son will be getting for Christmas.
I love your videos
!
Thank you Lori for an awesome tutorial. Love watching your technique.
I love your tutorials and being your sew buddy. I watch your tutorials over and over.
So cute. I’m just starting to use smaller pieces and enjoy seeing your precision. I think I’m hooked!!
I use an old cast-iron iron that I set on top of my clapper to increase the weight. I have only 2 clappers so that speeds up the process some. Love your videos and your organization hints. Thank you for coming into my home.
Love the detail you give us it’s so h😮elpful
Should read helpful
This block is adorable, all on its own!
I love watching your videos! I’m working on the Hometown quilt and have finished all of the blocks, except to hand appliqué all of them to the background. I love your appliqué method and actually won “best of show” in the County Fair with my Bee Happy hand appliquéd quilt. My husband asked, “does Lori Holt hand appliqué her quilts?” I told him I think you do some both ways. ???
I like the idea of cutting days and sewing days! I’m going to try that!
Hi Lori,
I just found your channel, and I am so happy I did. Everything about your channel is cozy and kind of old town vibe, and it comforts me so much. I love everything about your sewing sanctuary, from the colors of the fabric and the prints to every little detail, it looks like there's a lot of love all around it and even though I am not there, I feel like I am. Thank you for sharing your gift with us!!!
I love sewing with you 🇨🇦
I'm working on being more precise in my quilting and am going to try using clappers. I have never used them before. Also I am going to switch out my sewing foot to help me see better. Thank you
Love these blocks and your instructions are easy to follow. Thank you.
Always a joy to watch you sew.
UA-cam should have a ♥️ versus a 👍 for your videos! Love, love your tutorials and products!
Hello everyone
Hi Lori. I really like this block. You do such a good job. I enjoy watching your videos. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing. I understand more about the scale of the prints that you use with smaller blocks. ❤.
Thank you again for your inspiration! ❤your tutorials as they get me sewing! BTW, you look so BEAUTIFUL!! God bless U!
😍
Love watching your videos. Everything is so pretty and neat.
Love watching your technique. Thank you
Happy Hollidays Lori! Pretty blocks. I love that the like button had a rainbow swirl around it and the comment area. So festive!
I love the red better . It brings out the colors best
(Jayne) I love using ur trim it rulers. Thanks for all ur good info and time.
This is a great series! I always continue to learn so much.
Such beautiful piecing.
I love to sew with you
Love this. Love your new hair too. ❤
I love watching you sew, Lori! You are so inspiring. I absolutely love this block. I’ve been searching for a block that would work well with flannel. I live in the northeast and flannel quilts are wonderful to have on hand during the cold months. I’m going to do a 10 inch test block, and if needed maybe resize it to a 12 inch block. I like to use larger pieces when working with flannel. Thank you for providing us with these fabulous videos! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Ooohhhhhh sweet blocks!
Hi Lori
I really like this block a lot
I’ve been trying to keep up with you on this sew along
I want to purchase the same fabric for my solid square 5 1/2 inch
I have auditioned other fabrics, and for some reason I like the one you picked out 😊
Thank you for doing the math for us And I really enjoy the 5 1/2 inch squares
They are truly cute and fun to make ❤
Just love these videos 😊 thank you!
Fun to watch!🥰
Loved this video. Love all your videos.
Lori...thanks for sharing...enjoy your scrappy blocks...best wishes and Happy Thanksgiving ❤❤
You make it look easy😊
Thank You for showing another cute block. This block in the red flower reminds me of a poinsettia and would make a pretty table runner/topper using the 10” size, or a cute little mug rug using the 5” size. I am writing the measurements down but would you ever put out a book/pattern of these blocks in the 5” & 10” measurements?
Love sewing with you during your videos.
Have you done a tutorial on this sewing machine mat? It is adorable.
Thank you for all you do and share with us
Very nice
Thank you, Lori, for yet another wonderful tutorial. I'm way behind so am wondering if you're going to leave these tutorials up for a while yet so I don't lose the directions and measurements or should I jot that info down soon? Thanks.
❤❤❤
Lori do you think you could get Mr. Honey to do a video on how he cleans & oils your feather weights I really need to do mine but I have no idea where to start.no one local does them please?
& thanks for all the videos you do for us
❣❣❣❣👍

Hi 👋 I was wondering what temperature your vintage iron is
I was wanting to find me one on eBay. But I’m concerned that it may not get hot enough
What is your thoughts on that?
How do you know how much of what to cut.
