Would love to see how you back and quilt your foundation piecing. I have not had an opportunity to really search your channel yet and you may already have a video out there. I am going to try a quilt as you go with the backing as a border too, on the one I am working on. So it would be great to see what you do, too. Thank you for the share. Your quilt is a phenomenon! Absolutely one of the most beautiful quilts I have ever seen.
@@lindadechow3703 I don’t know if I have a video that specifically shows the backing of my FPP…hmm…I’ll keep it in mind for future videos. One of my fleece back quilts used the backing as the border. That video is here: Using Fleece for Quilt Backing - My first 3 Linus Quilts! ua-cam.com/video/G7TBXpzByKg/v-deo.html
I think I would be happy to look at any of your projects. For me I love looking at unusual ways to do something And any large quilt making strategies. Baby quilts are so fun and sort of fast whereas these large quilts are a long term commitment and challenge. Your video here has helped me get unstuck. King sized quilts are really hard on so many levels. From foundation fabric, backing, piecing, patterning, assembling and keeping the (_@$$ thing square on all sides and straight and unpuckered when you start quilting the darn monster. An aging arthritic body and failing vision make for a slow going process.
It’s so refreshing to see something that is excellent but not perfect, all those perfect quilts are very intimidating. This video made me think “oh, I can make one too”, rather than the usual “I don’t think I can do that”. The quilt is quite lovely. The back is not perfect but it’s acceptable. Thank you for the video.
Thanks! That is the whole point of the channel but not everyone understands it 😂! I only started quilting during lockdown and I found too many videos felt a bit intimidating so I wanted to put a ‘confident beginner’ voice out there which is what I am and what I probably always will be. My stuff will never be perfect!
Wow amazing. What a great job. It is nice to see the procedure at the end. So often people show how to put blocks together and tell you to just keep going to what ever size you need. I have made three king size quilts and it is not as easy as they show. AND you are a busy mom. Thank you for taking the time to share.
Wow!! That turned out beautifully. Who cares is the navy’s on the back are different. I think that just adds to the unique way this quilt was made!! Great job! Love to see you work and see that I’m not the only one who says this can be done another way!!❤
It’s fantastic!! Thank you so much for sharing, your joining process is freaking genius! I’m definitely going to give this a try on my next one, I have been watching videos for QAYG forever and have never seen anyone join like this before. It looks a lot better and doesn’t look as confusing with a bunch of different steps. As far as the colors go I think that’s what makes quilts special and unique ❤️
Thank you for taking the time to show how to sew the two top parts of quilt together and show how to cut the batting to fit inside. And then sew again on both sides of quilt. I'm going to try it on my king size quilt I'm making.
This turned out so pretty! Thank you for showing how to do a QAYG on a large quilt! There are videos showing how to join blocks, but very few on doing QAYG by row and hardly any that show how to do a large quilt.
Wow so cool and I love how there was so much scrappy fabrics and look so pretty when your had it hangin at play ground and the bridge. and that’s a great idea quilt as you go for big quilts in strips!!
Thank you. I love your quilt. I'm doing my first queen size quilt from a few old store bought comforter tops my husband and I had and scraps at home. I was worried I wasn't going to be able to sew something that big on the machine til I saw how you did yours.😊
I’m in awe of the size of the beast! If I tried this the quilt would be smaller and I would probably find it easier to do 4 quarters rather than managing those long seams. I find some days I just don’t have what I call Long Seam Energy. Lol
Thanks glad you liked it! I have a more recent video with an even easier QAYG method that I might have used on this one if I had known about it then. It’s here: ua-cam.com/video/wnBwdTLm4Aw/v-deo.html
Okay, I add batting and backing to each block as I go then simply attach them to each other with a zigzag stitch... boom... done. much easier!! instead of being on my hands and knees on all fours on the floor and you are blessed for having that amount of floor space anyway.
Interesting method. Mine was more for folk who want to disguise that they’ve done it qayg in a way I guess. There are so many methods - everyone can have a different favourite!
Thanks! I actually found out about another method about a year after making this that I think is even easier - it’s here: ua-cam.com/video/wnBwdTLm4Aw/v-deo.html
@@ScrapFabricLove I saw that video too, but with that method the part you join is not quilted yet, it has to be quilted after being joined. In this video, both parts are quilted before being joined. So, it depends on each situation.
Beautiful!!!! WOWSERS IMPRESSIVE, you're really amazing! Video shared. You must be proud. Everything you do is interesting so I'll be here to view. Namaste my Sweet Friend 🤗🐞🥰
I’ve been doing large quilts like yours on my home machine, and it is definitely difficult. I prefer not to have sashing joints, so I do like you and find different ways to use straight line stitching. Depending on the quilt top design, I have done stitch in the ditch, diamond pattern from corner to corner, or I also like to do fancier quilting by using templates to quilt each block. Once done, I sew the blocks together, and then add backing by doing simple stitch in the ditch around blocks. This makes a nice grid on the back. Any way you do it, the large quilts are hard to muscle through the machine. Finished units are worth it though👍🏻🥰
Yes it’s definitely a struggle! Takes a bit of creativity however you do it I think 😂. By the way I posted a more recent video about an 8th quilt as you go method that I didn’t know about when I was experimenting for this quilt . It’s here: ua-cam.com/video/wnBwdTLm4Aw/v-deo.html
It's absolutely gorgeous Kristen, and I agree that the two shades of blue make it more endearing. A beautifully made quilt that will last a very long time ♥
All the other quilt as you go videos I watched showed blocks being joined with sashing. You demonstrated a much easier way to do quilt as you go! Thanks for sharing! Blessings to all in love and light!🙏🏼💜🙏🏼💙🙏🏼🧡🙏🏼💛🙏🏼💚🙏🏼
I do quilt as you go on most of my quilts because I want to do everything on ‘my’ quilts. But doing it on a regular machine is hard as a whole . Doing it in sections is easier but I do hand stitch the back. I enjoyed your quick video and getting on with how you did everything!!
Your quilt is beautiful! and this video is very helpful to me being a newbie. I have been intimidated by large quilts and the quilting process. This quilt as you go method seems doable for me. Thank you!
Your queen sized scrap quilt turned out great! My favorite thing to watch is crumb quilting tutorials or any kind of scrap patterns. But any project you’re working on is interesting.
Lots of great ideas here 🤩 You finished the quilt AND put a label on 👍👍 Thanks for posting so we can all try these techniques. It must be easier to quilt in sections rather than dragging a whole quilt backwards and forwards 👍👍 🇬🇧
Thank you so much for doing the video and the 7 quilt as you go methods which is how I have just found your channel after looking for other methods other than the joining and cover strip ways. I think I am going to try this way next, you would never know it was quilt as you go! Its a fantastic quilt! I look forward to watching more of your videos! Thanks!
I absolutely love this quilt. I haven't done a quilt as you go yet but I think this will be it. Maybe just a lap size to start. Thanks for your tutorials. Bev Dietrich

I am making my first quilt as you go Christmas quilt and yours is the only one I’ve seen that I think makes a queen size doable the only thing will have to figure out is the measurements to make sure I have enough batting and backing. Thank you so much from Chicago land!
Love it! You did a great job. I'm a big fan of scrappy quilts. I'm making a king size quilt for my Brother and his wife, so your instructions are a big help to me. You give me confidence to do it. Also, I don't want to pay $ to have someone to quilt it for me. You did a great job of filming the steps. Thank you.
That is HUGE! Amazing!@ That will be a family heirloom for a LonG time! Congratulations!! Love the scrappy look....it's the epitome of what a quilt is. I had to edit this because I see you live in my favorite city AND you're an upcycler too and lover of scraps. Yeah!
Your quilt as you go process is exactly what I have been looking for. I made a quilt a few years back and forgot how I joined the quilted pieces, and what a great reminder. My quilt is a lap size so it is not nearly the huge size of a project as you have done here. Bravo to you! And Thanks!
Thank you for this. I will be using sashings to join but I was looking for instructions on how to join all the pre quilted blocks into a big quilt on a regular sewing machine. So basically the horizontal sashings would be short and joined together from top to bottom to form a long strip. Then the strips get joined together vertically with a long sashing and the completed work always to the left of the sewing machine. Makes sense.
It is a beautiful job you deserve credit for your work there is a lot went into that whoever gets it I hope they realise the work and love ❤️ you put into.
What would you like to see me do more videos about?
Anything you are always interesting and easy to follow. 🥰🐞🤗

Thanks so much!
Wow its awesome. Love the way u joined. Thanx for Sharing. Maureen South Africa. Going to try
Thanks! So glad you liked it! Best of luck with yours!
a stroke of genius doing the double quilting seam so the section joins wont show. Loved the video.
Thanks so much!

Absolute genius figuring out how to quilt this quilt, it’s totally awesome!!
Thanks so much! Anything to avoid hand sewing down the whole length of it!!
I’m in awe of the size of the beast! If I tried this the quilt would be smaller and I would probably find it easier to do 4 quarters rather than managing those long seams. I find some days I just don’t have what I call Long Seam Energy. Lol
4 quarters is a good idea! Do whatever works for you I say!
‘The Beast’ is beautiful! Thanks for sharing this mythopoetic. I’ll certainly try your method!

Oh yeah! So glad you are going to try. Just remember it is all a learning experience and there is no need to be perfect!
Just lovely! Thank you for sharing.
