The phone is just fine ...thank you for taking the time to make these tutorials I really appreciate the lessons and tips. I’m going to make a hot rod shirt quilt for my husband so I’m very happy to see the tip about stabilising before I started . By the way Love how you do your hair. 😘
Love this series. Thank you for sharing. I have a stack of Harley shirts that my fiancé has collected throughout the years and are too small now (must be my good cook in’) lol. I think it be a really cool quilt because they are dealer shirts from all over that have the city and state on them. He will be able to remember all his trips when he sees it.
Wacky Jacky wow!!! When you start your quilt I'd love to see!! A dear friend of mine gave me about 9 Harley shirts.....Im keeping my eyes out for more as I would love to make a Harley Davidson quilt one day!!
The phone works great for video. I am working on a t-shirt quilt for my daughter and I will use your technique. I use Elmer's glue quite often when quilting and find it very useful. Thanks for the great video.
I am at 54 starting to sew and have always said I hate sewing when I secretly envied all my friends that made beautiful things when I fought learning in 7 years of home economics. Well I wanted to make quilts all my life and never believed I would and at Christmas a sweet lady gave me a sewing machine she was tossing out because the pedal was missing and I finally found a pedal online and have just started little projects and I couldn't remember how to thread the machine but my husband was kind enough to show me. He had asked to be shown years ago and sat down and reupholstered a 65 Mustang convertible. And it turned out like a professional had done it. Well I have a Cricut Maker and am pretty crafty and sewing is gonna come in with pillows and repurposing furniture. I have looked and looked online and you tube for my teachers and you've become my favorite because you use new and tried techniques. Now bear in mind for some reason I'm not getting this and I remember I didn't before either. And that's why I never wanted to try, but as long as I can stand less than perfect I am gonna keep on. I purchased a new machine and bought the Juki HZ something can't think but the machine I had already is a Euro ProX 385 and it's a dandy was planning to keep but think with all the interest and the price gouging right now that I'm gonna give to someone that wants to sew but can't really afford one. Okay that's my history looking forward to learning from you.
Hi Karen, I loved hearing your story!! Thanks so much for sharing with me :) Having patience with yourself and your skills is important. We ALL start in the same place and you WILL improve along the way.
I so happy I found your site, as I was trying to do a baby blanket for my great grandson and you made it so easy to understand. Thank you. I will be tuning in for new ideas.
First timer here to your videos, it was excellent, love the way you put the t-sirt on. I am going to watch the rest. I made one quilt so far out of new born baby clothes. I and did the square design capturing the main element of the item. I did add socks and also printed some baby photos on plain fabric along with birth, wight, time, date and name, It turned out nice n mum was pleased but I would have loved to put all the item on like you did its more of a visual memory. Thank you so much for sharing this I really do appreciate it. I going to look at your other videos, hoping you have done one on how you did that design in Inkscape.
Thanks for watching Denise! Your quilt sounds like it turned out amazing :) I'm glad I could share some tips with you in this video and that they were helpful, unfortunately I don't really have any Inkscape tutorials however there are TONSSSS of them here on UA-cam and I've found them to be really good!
I'm making a list of machines to check out, I'll be adding the Husqvarna to the list, thank you!! I can't quite justify a new machine yet as the one I have is a work horse and produces great stitches for the most part.......but when the time comes....there are a few things I'd like to include in my next machine...
Lisa, I LOVE my Patchwork Machine. JoAnns had them on sale for Labor Day and my daughter got if for me, as an early Christmas gift😃🤗. It just so happen that i got the last Patchwork Machine, in Pa, because the factory burnt down.🤭. Best bang for the buck ever, and you’re right, IT IS A BEAST! Since then, so may people have been going around to JoAnns looking for it because of the fantastic, “word of mouth” reviews. It included like, what about 12 different feet, including walking foot and buttonhole foot.🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
the factory burnt down???? Glory, I didn't know that! They are a work horse of a machine for sure! Today I finished the bindings of 7 quilts....made with clothing with THICK seams.....and not one issue.
I'm making a T-shirt quilt and should have watched your video first... But here we are. Just wondering if you ever have included size tags from the back of the shirts? I have tags from toddler sizes to Adult 16 for this memory quilt. Thought to incorporate in the binding. Any better ideas?
You are absolutely right, the iron dries the glue quickly and so you are not bringing wet glue to the machine :) I like glue basting because then I'm not poking my fingers with the pins, or removing a bunch of pins as I'm sewing along, and the glue holds everything perfectly. I'd say time wise......they both take about the same amount of time for me...glue basting vs. pinning.
@@TheQuiltmakerHomesteadWhere can I find the other videos in this series? I’m very interested in learning more about using baby clothes in a memory quilt.
What is your preferred stitch length and needle for t shirt quilts? I had way too short of a stitch and ended up with puckering. When I lengthened the stich, it was coming undone a tidbit as I was sewing the next square together. My needles come with a jersey needle is that a good one to use?
Just wondering if there’s a difference between a memory quilt that’s used and one that’s for keepsake or display. I’m learning many tips from you. Thank you
Joy Chalkley I would say the only difference would be that a quilt that is used needs to be able to be washed. One that is for display doesn't necessarily need to be washed.
Just curious how much you charge for t-shirt quilts based on size like twin size up to king & memory quilts?,.. I’m wondering if I’m charging too cheap….
Hi Lisa, I'm loving your t-shirt quilting videos ❤️ thank you for posting! I have a question, what is the non stick surface that you are using to iron on the interfacing?
Tracy Maysmith hi Tracy! In this video I was using my pressing board. It's just covered with cotton muslin. Being careful not to iron the stabilizer beyond the shirt so it didn't stick to my board lol
What do you think about double sided T-shirt quilt? How would you join the panels? Would you recommend quilt as you go blocks? I think the only way you could do double sided is if you make one side frayed edges, right?
Hi Terri, you can certainly do a double sided t-shirt quilt :) lining up front and back could be tricky but certainly do-able and it's not necessary to do it as a rag quilt. You'd want to really baste the quilt well to keep it all in place. If you need more help join me on Facebook and send me a message, I'd love to help
i know that graph paper can be kind of hard to find at times in some areas. But at the dollar tree grap a roll of wrapping paper. not only this have have the graph on it but you can actually lat out the items you want to use.. and it would be reusable.
Hi Melanie, you can certainly use those items to make a quilt with! You'll find it much easier if you use a fusible interfacing on the back side of the clothing :)
I am going to be making a T-shirt quilt for my grandson. One of his shirts is an actual jersey with buttons down the front. How do I prepare this? Do I still use the stabilizer?
Do you add a picture after you put your stabilizer on. Like if you want to sew a picture on the t- shirt do you sew it on after the stabilizer or before.? And you cut your squares after you put the stabilizer on
Hmmmm.....I think it can depend on what you are adding. Generally I would stabilize the shirt before adding anything to it....and certainly before cutting out the finished block size :)
thank you for the info on the iron you use......Now how did you fuse the iron on fusable to the baby t-shirt without fusing onto the board you were fusing on????
Loving this! But i do have a question. You mention when starting off to sink your needle in the backgroud fabric. Is your ziz zag then 'centered' over the raw edge or does the zig, in zig zag, ride along the raw edge and the zig zag design is on the piece you're sewing down? Thanks!
I reckon you could do it how ever you prefer :) When I do it, my needle is right next to the raw edge and zigs INTO the applique, so the stitches are not truly "centered" over the raw edge. It's the same as a satin stitch. You could certainly move to the right some and center your stitching over the raw edge....however I think it's a matter of what kind of look you are trying to achieve. A zigzag stitch is more spaced out, and if you center the stitch over the raw edge, you will see small gaps on your background in between the stitching :)
Do you have any other videos relating to this one? I just needed a basic idea and couldn't find anything. Would love to see more but if not I think I got it now:) LOL!
Old Koloa the shirt I'm pressing it to has the stabilizer "raised up", not flat on the pressing board....when I move my iron I try to keep the majority of the irons surface on top of the shirt, hope this helps :)
+dobielover quiltmaker Inkscape is a vectorizing software that I've used for years to make designs for my vinyl cutter. In working with it, I realized you could plan other things, like quilts! There are TONS of tutorials on UA-cam for using Inkscape. I always start by changing my document properties, and setting my page size to the size of my quilt. Then you can create blocks and move them around until you have a desired look. There is definitely a learning curve, as with most softwares.
Search on UA-cam: Lisa Capen Quilts and scroll through the videos. There are only two other videos about this quilt because I started running out of time when the client needed to take the quilt out of town as a gift.
@@TheQuiltmakerHomestead was there a part two on you completing the quilt above? When you are quilting it altogether, do you free style around the appliqué ?
I used to sign my name in my quilts with the quilting and it blended in nicely. Recently I made little quilt labels that look like tags that I embroidered, and I sew them in the binding...they are so cute like little professional tags. You can use fabric markers as well.
Very good, but I’m laughing here at “your vision”, yeah I have loads of them too.....but my stuff always ends up looking like 💩 in the end :)......no vision at all on my part
So I started a baby clothes quilt and cut my fabric before I remembered to use interfacing or any kind of stabilizer. Can I still add this before I start sewing?! Thanks
Hi Raechel, yes you can still add it before you start sewing :) Just cut your stabilizer to the size of the clothing piece first, I think that would work fine
@@TheQuiltmakerHomestead I have another question for you. This is my first baby clothes quilt and I got a few pieces with a cute design in the middle of the zipper! Do you have any video on this? Cutting and then how to sew it? Thanks
I'm going to share this video, although I'm using a button front shirt....a lot of the steps are the same. Be very careful and slow sewing over the zipper......when you get to the zipper it's best to stop.....and hand crank the stitches until you get past the zipper....that's what I would do ua-cam.com/video/_9NMeAKPViw/v-deo.html
lol, I pet my sewing machines and my car too and I ask, "Please?" and say, "Thank You," while my daughter prefers to go straight to the Big Guy Upstairs. I can hear her praying in the passenger seat, "Don't let a deer jump out, don't let us run out of gas, help us find our car in the parking ramp..."
Linda Bridges it is an older one...back when I was really unproficient at making videos hahaaa....not that I'm an expert now by any means! I completely ran out of time before this quilt was needed as a wedding gift.

you did great I loved how you did this looking to see more of your videos
Love your videos. You are real life creating beautiful reasonable things.
Thank you so much!

Richard Molby so glad to hear from you! Thanks for watching :)
I never heard of using glue. How does this idea effect the needle. Doesn't the needle get sticky?

Husqvarna sewing machine does that. Quick touch to the presserfoot, the foot raises just a smidge so you can turn the fabric.

I can't quite justify a new machine yet as the one I have is a work horse and produces great stitches for the most part.......but when the time comes....there are a few things I'd like to include in my next machine...
I have a sewing box exactly like the one you have and I love it.
cddart21 aweeee that's awesome! That was my Grandmothers ♡ it still has her sewing stuff in it :)
What a neat idea!!!! I never thought of using glue!!! wish I had seen your tutorial before I did
Dresden Plate. Would have been helpful. Thanks!!!

Jesse, I've never done that before.....but I think that is an AWESOME idea!
Do you find gluing takes less time than pinning? Does the glue not gum up your needle? Maybe that aspect of it is taken care of in the pressing.
You are absolutely right, the iron dries the glue quickly and so you are not bringing wet glue to the machine :) I like glue basting because then I'm not poking my fingers with the pins, or removing a bunch of pins as I'm sewing along, and the glue holds everything perfectly.

Mine was made from teashirts/j my blocks were 7 and a half inches
Lisa, how would you use/cut a collared golf shirt in a t-shirt quilt? Thank you! Julie Urosevich
What type board are you pressing on? Thanks for these valuable tips.
just homemade ironing board
Awesome video! Thank you!! This is exactly what I need right now. Are you using a stretch needle for the shirt?
I like using a universal needle :)

I use glue sticks instead of liquid glue.
So informative! (Your sweet face was a treet to see!) I learned a lot from this. Thank you.

+Nellie Dewey lol...I was just careful with the iron. You could always trim the fusible to fit the shape of the shirt to avoid that :)
How did you keep the interfacing from sticking to the area you used to iron it on the baby shirt?
I just made sure not to apply any pressure off of the shirt to any stabilizer that was hanging over the edge :)
I can't find the continuation of this video. (There are hundreds of videos by Lisa!)
