    So wonderful to see God's Word in that quilt! A warm, fuzzy collage...Well done Tracy!

    Even if your husband can see how the sections are put together, he's not going to care. All that's going to matter to him is that you love him so much that you made a gift designed especially for him and him alone. Well done!

    Great tip on the interfacing of flannel! I have a set of turning twenty flannel Quilt blocks that have just been giving me fits. I had thought about using interfacing, but was concerned that it might be too heavy for this quilt. Your comments have helped me tremendously. I will go hunt for a very light interfacing to control it. Then I’m gonna finish squaring my blocks and finally put them together! Thank you.

    My very first quilt was 100” square and every focal fabric was a memory jog of the favourite things for my sister and her husband. I called it Making Memories and when I gave it to them the other week (we won’t be together for Xmas) they were blown away! They loved it! I also learned so much making it! 🌻

    Nice idea to do a flannel. Just an idea, 1or 2 extra shirts just for your strips. Unsure but might help with matching with the blocks.

  • @sherrydarling9626

    I am working on ‘going away’ quilts for each of my grandsons. When I pass I do not want a funeral, wake, viewing, etc., there aren’t that many people I know that are close enough to drive here anyway. I don’t want people looking at my dead body! I want their memories of me to be when I was alive. Their quilts will have pieces of my flannel nighties, their favorite colors, and on the back a note in my handwriting “I will love you forever, Granny”. I have watched these two boys grow up from infants to college graduates so my ‘disappearance’ will affect them emotionally. With these quilts, made with my love, they will always have a reminder of my love for them.

    Your process for putting this quilt together as a collage is exactly the process I used for my granddaughter’s T-shirt, Quilts. They both turned out really beautiful. However, I think it might have gone better if I had a design wall like yours. Laying them out on the bed just didn’t work as nicely.

    I love your thoroughness on constant trimming. I only recently realized that doing this keeps my quilt completely square at the end. Each block needs to be as perfect as I can get it. Perfection isn’t guaranteed-it is just a goal.

Last summer I did make a queen-size flannel quilt for someone that had 1,670 two inch squares. I dealt with the "wiggly" flannel by heavily starching the fabric.

    The quilt looks great, my 1st time see you put together a quilt from flannel shirts. My guess is the minky is the filler. If that's right, this should be the first time I have seen a quilt put together by you. My mom would have shipped the quilt out to have the filler put in it.
    It's great to see your video. I had to touch like button instead of smashing it.

I didn’t have a sewing machine in those days. I have since evolved to using a sewing machine and I get so much more done. Thank you for all of the tips on sewing Minky for backing and binding. It’s giving me confidence to try those techniques. God bless and happy sewing.

    So inspiring!!! (If only! 😆 😝)
    Yes, I think laying it face down was a good idea bc hvg a stretchy front and back, it wd hv been a nightmare to keep it as straight as you did, if it was the other way around. Good call!!!
    Now your gonna be like the cat that ate the canary, until you give it to him. 😁

I do tuck the pillow under the lip of the table while it’s in my lap . I do quilting on a HQ Capri 18 and my domestic Pfaff. The pillow helped a lot. Off to make my quilting necklace.❤

    I'm pretty sure the shifty will come out in the wash! I've found that a lot of things I miss when I quilt disappear after washing. Or maybe it's old age and I just forget about the little goof ups by the time the quilt is dried. Don't you love that you can turn that Juki around and free motion quilt with it. Thanks for sharing another great tutorial.
