      I’m replying because I doubt you meant that negatively-you were just making a point. If it’s also not her favorite color or style, maybe it’s on purpose! 😊She'll want to change it more often, which means more of April's Craft Room videos for us. Yay!🎉🎉

    I love how you carefully explained how you prepared the backing, and also how you started and enmeshed your binding. I'm an old and experienced sewist, but many younger and less experienced folk are joining the ranks. You have done them a great favor. It was well explained and demonstrated.
    I love the fat quarter bundle and your finished quilt.

    I really like this quilt Miss April. Fantastic example of how to use large pieces to show off super cool prints.

Hopefully I can catch your Live this weekend. 🤗🤗

    Ive used that monofiliment thread before and it works great. But the thread thats woefully underrated for garment making, specifically gathering, is elastic thread. Wind a bobbin with it, stitch a line and voila you have gathering. Just the way you want it. No more two lines of stitching, pulling up threads etc. The other thing thats underrated is stitch witchery- that gossamer " tape" that you can use to hold things down when you iron. Theres all kinds of uses for it. And its permanent.

    Monofilament threads have come a long way over the years. If your machine doesn't like the thread on the bobbin, you can use a light Grey regular thread or a matching color. There is also a fusible version.

    @Tla81 6 місяців тому +1

    Thank you for this quilt! I’ve been looking for a way to use fat quarters with very few cutting for a quilt! I was taught after putting on the binding on the front, is to hand sew the back binding. After doing a few king size quilts, it would take me about a couple of hours. I used to work for a custom drapery shop. I loved it until the owner retired. Now I just do my own stuff.
