Thank you so much for your channel. I found you by accident. I have not quilted for over 11 years since losing our home and contents. I kept one box of scraps which was all I could grab. After finding this clip I got that box out and started my first quilt in a long time at 3am. Lots of tears and healing and I'm quilting it tomorrow and inspired to quilt again. Thank you so much x

Have you ever had your fabric so long that its integrity is questionable? My first job (oh, Lord) was working in the fabric department at Sears! I am now in my early 60s and I just pitched that perfectly cheerful pink, blue and white seersucker. WHAT was I thinking?

Hi Angela, I love this quilt. I made mine about 3 yrs ago and its still my favorite. Doing the different patterns on ea strip was so exciting...this was the funniest quilt to make it actually made me happy...as a new quilter I was able to practice the different designs...I felt accomplished when done..and I felt like a real quilter.. I havent stopped since ...Thank You, you are so inspiring. ❤

Our charity quilt group's process eliminates stash AND scrap guilt! First, all our fabric is donated, clearing out other quilters' stash stacks. We use the fabric until it's less than 2 1/2 inches wide (2 1/2 inch pieces are used for quilts such as in this video - with many different lengths, it's very scrappy!). Finally, all the trimmings and unused bits are brought to another sewing group that uses them as stuffing for dog beds they donate to the humane society.

OMG This is me. I cannot throw out even small pieces of fabric. Doesnt seem right. Thanks for this video!.

Hi Angela. I just wanted to thank you for your videos, as you've inspired me to pick up quilting again. I learned many years ago and was a hand quilter, but then I veered off into crochet, knitting, and embroidery. The desire to sew masks for my community reignited my interest in quilting, and I found your channel as a result. Your cheerful enthusiasm has been a shot of creativity for me, and your permission to just quilt those quilt tops (instead of waiting until I'm "good" at it) has been so freeing. To celebrate my reunion with quilting, and my new goal of finally learning to machine quilt, I used the pattern in this video to make a "mask" quilt out of scraps from all the masks I've sewn. It's something comforting to come out of what has been a very unsteady and challenging time. I'm already about to sew on the binding of my second quilt, made up of very patriotic reds, whites, and blues, and Quilt #3 featuring my first experience with Ombre fabrics is in the planning stages. I don't think I'd be at this point without your encouragement. "Thank you" doesn't seem adequate enough to say how grateful I am to you for helping me find my love for quilting again, but know that my gratitude is sincere.

I saw your videos a long time ago. Life happened and I stopped quilting for a time. I found you again today and I won't ever let you go again. 😊

I love this idea for using up left-overs from jelly rolls!! Thanks for a wonderful idea!!

I'm a fabric hoarder for sure! I do save ALL my scraps too. I save them in a bag made of fabric. It's like a pillowcase and I call it my "Scrap Bag". When it's full enough, I sew the top closed and some lucky cat gets a new bed! We have the Happiest cats in town! I think I'll start donating some of these Scrap Pillows to the local Humane Society for their cats too. And dogs. I love this Fence Rail quilt! It's so pretty. I made one once that turned out ok, but yours is MUCH prettier and more colorful too!

I'm with the lovely lady Autumn Mahaffey, I liberate fabric then entomb it in my fabric cupboard! It such a good feeling to do that its like saving a whale!

This was informative and entertaining. I have just started my first quilt with heavy cottons from a Malabar sample book. I am falling in love with the process. Thank you

It's a combination of both. I feel guilty/hate throwing away usable scraps. I'm trying to get better about cutting up the scraps at the end of a project, so they are ready when I want to "stash bust". As far as the amount of fabric I unintentionally "hoard", I blame that on the suggestions being given to quilters back in the 70's and 80's about creating a fabric stash for spur of the moment quilts required. Made sense to me at the time and I collected a lot of fabrics that I loved, but had no plan to use immediately. Now I have an insane fabric collection, dating back to the early 80's.

I became interested in sewing from my grandmother who sold (hand thread decorated) pillowcase sets for $25 in the 1950s and 1960s! She had waiting lists. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to learn how to do it from her before she passed. I did inherit five quilts she made. I know one was from the mid 1960s. I remember the Christmas I got a doll wrapped with an identical quilt. I had that for the longest time. My Mom added to my interest in quilting. But her interest only went as far as growing the stash. It finally came to the point where Dad and Mom started unloading Mom's UFOs and other 'projects in various directions. I was on the receiving end of some. My daughter DID brand me a hoarder. I told her 'no, you didn't see your Grandma's collection.' LOL

I love watching your videos, and reading your books, Angela! (The short vids are great for when I’m cleaning my teeth in the morning... makes a boring job fun!)

I love jelly rolls and this looks like a fun quilt. Not sure I have enough but I could definitely make more. How to quilt. Thanks for showing the quilting the most challenging part for me.

So creative, best use of scrap fabric

free motion quilting scared the bejeebers out of me. I would ONLY echo my seams. THEN I had a quilt to finish where echoing would just be insanity and I started with just simple wavy lines across the entire width of the quilt. Now I have the free motion bug (kind of). I topstitched a baby quilt in a simple meander and then started topstitching another baby quilt to make it look like puzzle pieces. Angela, I watch ALL your videos and talk about you so much, hubby will ask me "so how's your friend Angela doing today?" He even buys me a bottle of sparkle juice now and then, but I'm more of a white sparkle juice kind of gal myself. You keep stitching, I'll keep watching, and hubby will keep working to pay for all my fabric purchases! ;)

I like how u answer people's questions & address them too. Nice blocks scraps.

I LOVE this video. I watched it months ago, and couldn't find it when I wanted to try it. I FOUND IT, YAY!

I swear I was looking for a rail fence patterns this morning. You have perfect timing.

Ok, had two beautiful silks that I (we) saved that my Grandmother got in Hawaii in the 1970s. So in 1992 it was starting to rot and we saved the best parts.

Thank you so much Angela, I really really love 💕 this quilt. It’s just perfect 👌 for people like myself who are not sure of themselves and quilting in general. I’m also a hoarder !!!!!! And this would be an awesome idea 💡 for using up some of my stashed materials.xxx Mags
