    After airing this video-I learned that the technique I use in this video (the part where I cut the X with scissors) may or may not be Karin Hellaby's scissor technique. I cannot confirm 100%. If it is her technique then I want to make sure I give her full credit for that part of the video✅

    @AnitaSouthall 2 роки тому +42

    It's genius 🙌 There's no reason why you couldn't do multiple blocks to a manageable size each, then do a QAYG technique and have a four patch or nine patch etc. Have the same focal first square and change the rest to mix it up and use your stash. It would then be easier to both quilt and manage the bigger size issue. Especially if like me the floor is not an option

    Tracie, I'm thinking about your arthritic hands and something you may want to try with this block. Draw the X on your fabric first and fold the square into a triangle and where the X intersects cut a slight snip in the fabric at the X. Then put your fabrics right sides together, sew a 1/4" seam allowance all the way around the square. You will have that little slit premade and you won't have to use a seam ripper anymore and you won't have to worry about possibly poking into the layer below or ripping your opening wonky. Give it a try, I think you may find it helpful for you. ❤❤

    • @DF-gu5nn

      @@TheSewingChannel Thank you. I actually tried it awhile back making that little snip into the fabric when it's folded into a triangle then flaten it back out. It works for me. I've actually made many of these now and I make them several sizes, like you said, pot holders, placemats, table runners, all kinds of things. It's a great hack. Please keep sharing, I learn so much from you! ❤❤

    A quick suggestion. Try putting a stitch through the center square and through each subsequent square. Then you have threads to help you pull the squares apart before cutting.

    Awesome technique sis!!🤗🥰

  • @gigiontube
    @gigiontube 2 роки тому +2

    Tip to do this easier:
    First: draw the cross on the square to be cut.
    Second: cut 1/2 way from the center toward corners only on one diagonal, not both.
    Third: sew the two pieces together as in video.
    Forth: complete cutting on diagonals as in video. But the cutting will be much easier since there is a hole now to insert the scissors.
    Repeat the steps as in video to achieve the desired size.
    Hope you find this useful.

    @nancymathisen9707 Рік тому +1

    ❤️ Some call this an exploding square block. I love making these. I find pulling the layers apart with my fingers is easy and doesn’t risk damaging the fabric. IMO it qualifies as patchwork, although techniques are slightly different from more usual styles of patchwork. I thought about going big, but haven’t done it. Maybe soon. Smaller blocks joined together make interesting secondary patterns.
