Nice! So glad you love this one! 🥰
One of the best HST tutorials I've ever seen!
WOW! Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
I first found your channel during the 12 days of Quiltmas 2022, and this is the first of your tutorials I’ve watched. I like the pace at which you go, seeing each step of the process, and the reason for it. You have a new subscriber!
Thank you! Welcome to my channel! I am a former teacher, so I actually write lesson plans for my tutorials. Thank you so much for noticing! ❤️❤️❤️
Christmas gifts!!!
Yes! Perfect for Christmas gifts. 🥰
Thank You! Great job on helping a new quilter.
Yay! You are so welcome!
Welcome to the world of quilting! It is such a wonderful hobby. ❤️
Love how you offset the points when chain piecing! 😍😍😍. Thank you for that great tip!
You are so welcome! It works really well and you usually don't lose those points in the feed dogs doing it this way. Glad it was helpful.
One of the best beginner videos I have seen for quilts
Yay! Thank you! 🥰 So happy this is helpful!
You are a very good instructor,so enjoyed it and going to make some,can see where it is addicting
Thank you so much! These are so much fun. I just worked on one yesterday! LOL!
Love it. Can't wait to try.
So happy you like it! Let me know if you have any questions!
Thank you for such a detailed and professional tutorial! Your extra listings of materials and even time stamps to the steps involved make following your tutorial a breeze, even for total beginners! I especially appreciate your showing different layouts for this versatile pattern, and your careful focus on how to deal with potential tricky steps.
Oh my goodness! What wonderful compliments! I appreciate your kind words! I try to make tutorials that are complete but always have to balance that with the video becoming boring. 😀 Again, thank you! You made my day! ❤️
Yes I like the HST star layout and have a charm pack of plaid squares that I will have to try this pattern out on! Thanks Kris for sharing this idea, so many great sewing tips in it♥
I love how they look. Great idea.
Thanks, Chris!
Such cute table toppers! Thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome!
I like the Star block variation. Thanks for this fun tutorial!
You are so welcome! I am going to make one with that variation with some of the leftover blocks. I like that one, too!
Very cute! Thank you for sharing!!
You are so welcome!
Love this block.
Thank you! ❤️

I love the scrappy look and your directions make it look so easy. Thank you!
You are so welcome! So happy you enjoyed it! I love making these. I hope you do, too!
❤ love how this came together using salvages.
Thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome! ❤️ Glad you like this!
I like that so much, fun turning and playing with layout of triangles. Light and dark squares stitched together and hey presto, that is a wow from me. Good tip about chain stitching, I learned a lot from this, Thank you so much, also for the editing with the inserts 🌸💖
So happy you liked it! The inserts were my husband's idea. I can't take credit for that. He usually previews the videos, and when he doesn't understand something, I always know I need to add inserts because I wasn't being completely clear. So happy it helped!
@@SewtheDistance Thank you both so much ❤️
I want to try this. Looks fun.
SO much fun! I love making these! Glad you liked it!
Wonderful!
Many thanks! ❤️
I love your videos. You’re a great teacher. I really like the way you show what the pieces look like in different configurations. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much! 🥰🥰🥰
I appreciate your kindness and am so happy you love this and my teaching style! Thank you for your kind words. ❤️
This was my first time watching one of your tutorials and I must say I am impressed. I will be following your tutorials for sure. You make it seem so simple. I will definitely be making this table topper following your clear and concise instructions. Thank you for sharing
That is so sweet of you! Thank you! I really try to break it down into easy steps. I am so happy you are going to make these! They are a lot of fun and make great gifts, too! ❤️❤️❤️
Very nice and love being able to use scraps plus making 2 at the same time.🧵🪡
Yes! Thank you! They are fun to make!
Wow I can’t wait to try this. So much easier. Thanks
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you Kris. I love table topper ideas😊
You are so welcome! So glad you like it!
Great ideas for quilting gifts! Thank you ❤
You are so welcome! Glad you like them!
Great video on HST’s
Glad you enjoyed it! It is a fun project.
So glad I found this! I needed a quick handmade gift idea!
Glad it was helpful! You are so welcome! ❤️❤️❤️
Really great tutorial. Thank you! :)
You're very welcome! So happy you love it!
Very nice tutorial!! Your explanations were simple and easy to understand.
Thank you for sharing
Thank you! I am so happy you enjoyed it!
This is a wonderful project. I love your process on off setting the sewing lines. I want to make this too. Lol my list keeps growing
Thank you! These are a lot of fun! I made a bunch! They make the perfect housewarming gift. So happy you enjoyed it!
Your programs are very interesting. Neat ways to use up lots of scrap material, which we all seem to have a lot of. Thank you very much!❤
You are so welcome! Glad you like this one! I have more scrap videos in the works. ❤️
Thanks! I’m going to gather up some Christmas fabric right now! Sewing is fun!
Woohoo! Have fun! So happy to help inspire you!
I am so glad to have found your straightforward and clear tutorial on HSTs. I am new to quilting and tried watching a few other UA-cam videos on how to make them, but the other methods seemed confusing and complicated! Your explanation and demonstration just made sense. Thank you.
Oh wow! You are so welcome! Quilters--include myself--tend to overcomplicate stuff like this. I try to make it easy to follow. I have my husband watch the tutorials and, since he doesn't sew, he lets me know if I need to clarify the directions. I am so happy this helped you!
Nesting the chain piecing....game changer!!!!
YES! So happy you can use this tip! ❤️
What a great tutorial. I bumped onto your channel and subscribed. TFS
Awesome! Thank you! So happy you love this, too! Let me know if you have any questions!
My daughter asked for a Halloween table topper to put on her coffee table under her candy bowl. I had a charm pack I bought on sale a while back. I just sewed the squares together and set them on point. So simple, but it turned out great!
Great idea!! I love this! I am sure it looks great, too!
Love this and doing it at this moment.From Sri Lanka
OHHHH! YAY! That is the greatest compliment! Side note: My son visited Sri Lanka while in college and loved it. Maybe I will get there someday. ❤️❤️❤️
Yes I did it and gifted it to a friend who is leaving for Newzeeland .Thanks for the nice comment All the best.
Late to the game, but I love this! I do my HSTs exactly the same way, with sew lines and offsetting for chain piecing.
Do you? I am not sure where I learned to off set those seams but it is second nature to me now. Thank you for your kind words!
Thank you for sharing , I purchased the Bloc Loc I did not see the Amazon link to purchase would have liked to give you credit. Thanks again
Oh no! I must have forgotten to add a link. Sorry about that! It's okay that I didn't get credit. I am just happy you go it! I love mine. I just recently bought the flying geese ones LOVE these, too! They are a bit pricey but worth it, in my opinion. ❤️
I'm just finishing a cream and rust HST quilt and have several HSTs left over, so I've laid out two different designs to make a couple of these. Here I was, wondering what to do with the left overs...problem solved thanks to you!
That is awesome! So happy this helped!
Just found your channel. An I didn’t even get through the whole video before I subscribed. Whe I get time I’ll watch all your videos. I’m a newbie I buy fabric but don’t do anything with it cause I’m afraid to screw up but anyway thanks
Thank you so much! I try to keep it simple for new makers, as well as giving seasoned makers some good ideas, too. Please don't be afraid! It is a wonderfully rewarding art form that you will get better and better at in no time. I promise. I still have my first quilt and although it isn't perfect by any means, I still treasure it. There will always be new fabric lines and pretty stuff to sew with. Cut it up and get started. It will be worth it. Thank you so much for watching and subscribing! I have more beginner-friendly tutorial coming up. Can't wait to hear from you again and your progress with sewing/quilting!
These are lovely Kris. I have just ordered a whole lot of feet for my Brother and these will be good to try them out on. eg, the free motion sewing foot, not sure if I have a talent for that because, well, I've never really gotten into it. Then I have on order a quilting ruler foot and some templates, again, never tried it before. They were really cheap, coming directly from China but you have to wait months for them to arrive. I'm sure a long distance swimmer could get from China to Australia quicker!! but anyway we pay double or more the price of what I paid here so I figure if it doesn't work out for me I haven't lost a lot. I just bought a new bench table and chairs for out on our deck. I had a really nice big table and chairs but it was too big, don't know what I was thinking. Anyway I gave that to the family. I will make some placemats with your squares and practice some different things. Looks good fun. I am busy making some cat cones/collars for our vet at the moment so when that is done I can start to organise my fabrics etc. It's a good project to take to guild meetings also. Thanks, great idea.
Wow! You will be busy! Before the move, I would practice free-motion quilting for fifteen minutes each day and my skills definitely improved to the point that I wasn't half bad at it! I haven't tried in months. I should do that again! Right now, I just finish everything with the walking foot. Thanks for the reminder! These would be great to practice one, that's for sure, especially because there are a lot of intersections and seams. Have fun with your new feet! I hope they get there sooner than later!
Hello, I also ordered feet from China and they are not bad at all. The walking foot wasn't walking so I had to buy the real thing, no regrets. The simple feet from China have been great, just thought I'd share this with you to give them a thumbs up 😊🌸
@@alisonmary1443 Thanks Alison, I am looking forward to WHEN they arrive. Yes, I figured that since they were only a couple of dollars (AUD) if they are no good I haven't lost a lot and also if I am no good at it then it won't matter. I have also ordered a fringing foot and a stretch knit foot and something else that escapes my mind just now, would have to look up the orders. Have fun with yours.
@@suestutzle2779 @Alison Mary could you tell me who you ordered your feet from, please. I ordered some from madam sew and they do not align with my needle on my brother machine. I really would appreciate it. Thanks.
@@marynichols1034 I bought my feet my AliExpress. They are based in Singapore and have several 'shops' that you can buy from. I have a brother sewing machine and I found The Candy Shop had a lot of feet for Brother Machines. I have received two feet already from two different suppliers and so far so good. They took ages to arrive but came in one piece which I always worry about coming all the way to Australia and the post is not kind to parcels. Have a look at them and see what you think. They are really so much cheaper than what I can buy the same thing for here.
You forgot to tell us that you are using a walking foot. People need to know that as well. Other then that, it's an awesome and quick way to give as gifts. Can't wait to do one or two of my own
Sorry about the confusion, but you don’t have to use the walking foot. I’ve made them with a regular foot, too, so don’t worry about that. Either works well for this project. I should have mentioned that though. I will update the blog. So happy you enjoyed the video!
I think I’ll do thanksgiving colors on one side, Christmas on the other to kill two birds with one stone. Loved this tutorial. I did a larger top with this and love it.
Reversible table toppers are great, aren't they?
Hi Kris do you always use your walking foot when you piece your blocks and is it necessary. Thanks Desley
I don’t always use it, but I do notice I have a little bit more control with it. Usually it comes down to being lazy and not wanting to change it. 😀 I do know many people who prefer using it for everything.
Hello. Can this be done with fewer colors? Newbie here. Thank you❤
Great question! You can definitely use fewer fabrics. In fact, you could even make this with two fabrics (one for the dark side and one for the light). Let me know if you have any other questions! I am happy to help. ❤
@@SewtheDistance thank you. I have a thrift store brother sewing machine and I'm trying to teach myself the basics. Quilting is something I've always wanted to do it but sadly there are zero classes near me. So I'm learning from videos. I have 4 colors that I cut into 5x5 pieces. I want to make a small table topper for my new craft room.
That will be wonderful! I am so sorry there isn't any resources near you. I hope some of my videos help you in your journey. ❤️
Would it be hard to make it bigger?
it would be super easy to make it bigger. Instead of cutting 5" squares, just cut them larger. When you trim them down, use a bigger square. Half-square triangles can be as big as you would like. Let me know if you have any other questions. I am happy to help!
