    Thanks Paolo Jo . Just love your vids . Keep um coming plz. Thanks for your time , sooo appreciated. You remind me of a younger me. I am just trying to set up a newly acquired Juki machine and nz made swiftquilter frame. Until now I have managed with an ordinary Janome machine . Now looking foreward to greater production with no crawling round the floor to pin things. Also revamping tidying and organising sewing room ,so this is very helpful. My material comes from thrift shops , including pure Egyptian cotton sheets for three to five dollars. My poor linen cupboard is bursting at the seams !!!! Hahaha . Hoarder with a purpose !!!! Cheers love from Pat nz

    Thank you Pat! Blessings upon blessings for the Whole New Decade! May you piece and finish many many quilts, and may they all be soft, well loved, and comforting! Oh boy, you will be amazed at how much easier and faster it is to quilt on a frame! Be sure to watch my "How to Load All Three Layers" ...it's a full length video of Saturdays with SederQuilts, and full of wonderful info ... We show several options for different frames, including a Juki on a Grace frame. You might also enjoy watching my "How to Make a Quilt Design Wall" ... I recently saw the option of fusing CherrywoodHandDyedFabric to a door... it makes a Beautiful Art Statement when not in use, and is a fabulous little design space... I bet a soft fuzzy flannel sheet would fuse nicely to a door, too... I kinda sorta prefer having lines or grids (plaid gives lots of measurement options, for laying out blocks... but a solid doesn't distract from the creative design process) ... Either way, using a Design Door would be a great use of untapped space! I'll have to experiment and let you all know my helpful hints for that process! And then, to Efficiently Piece your Blocks Together... my "CLOTHESLINING" class at SederQuilts.com is very useful... it saves time and space (Stack & Label first, then Sew like Crazy Accurate)... and eliminates the Twisty Turny Oopsies... it was a game changer for my piecing productivity! Thanks for watching and commenting! Keep coming back for more... Lori and I hope to finish editing some of the thousands of video clips we have in our vaults... (I hoard photos and video clips with great ideas for more tutorials and classes to share!!) Hope this will be the year (or decade) that we post lots of new ones again!! Tutoluu!

    I save selvages, too, if large enough to serve as "twill tape" when a seam needs stabilizing. (A shoulder seam, for example.) As long as the seam is hidden, in the finished garment, I'd rather use what I have, than to toss same and buy another equivalent in function. Plus: Often those bits and pieces are large enough to use for testing purposes, such as best stitch length, adjusting tension. Use for leaders, when needed, to start a seam. Stack works well for "seam jumpers" as in sewing over thick seams in denim. Easy to keep some in a Cool Whip container (another re-purpose, with lid, item). ✔👍

    Oooo, there's definitely Scot in your make up flower, as i absolutely hate excess waste in ANYTHING. I do all sorts of crafts and have done all my life because of a wonderful lady called Mum. She taught my brother Jim and I everything that she knew in crafting, but she was frugal as you put it with all resources. Me, i'm just a miserable Scot who hates putting anything in the bin. At the moment i have been card making and i keep ALL bits of matching card for that just in case scenario that some of us know about and quite often i was right in keeping it, although it drives my husband nuts. I need a she shed that's all mine that i can go out and play in, making a mess without someone narking about the place being untidy. I do tidy up my crafty diningroom, but i prefer playing as it's a lot more fun. I have had fun listening to you as you went thru your process and oh how i can relate to the things that you said. Thank you flower for a lovely, funny time in your playroom. Crafty hugs from Norah, Glenochil Village, Central Scotland

    I'm a two-ruler cutter myself~ I find that it gives really good stability to ensure that the ruler edge that you are using to cut is completely lined up with the edge (and isn't veering). Still my go to method.....But I did swing for the Creative Grids Stripology XL ruler, and it is a game changer if you have strip intensive projects. It saved me a ton of time, and is very accurate. The XL also has the squares incorporate for squaring up blocks.Thank you for your video!

    I have watched umteen videos and have never seen anyone use two rulers to cut anything. I have used two rulers by somewhat an accident. I found that with one ruler the cut can be on the left and I am right handed. This makes an accurate cut awkward and allows slippage. I needed to make the cuts easier, more safe and more accurate. The two rulers allow this. Thanks for showing me that using two rulers is sometimes the way to go.

    Joanne Donovan 🤓 Excellent idea! Washing and pressing all fabric right away is a very good habit! I used to do that, too, especially when I sewed mainly garments. 😉I would serge or zig zag the cut edges before washing, so they would not ravel into a knotty mess. I still do that with home decor fabrics and smelly yardage to remove fragrance, chemicals and to prevent shrinkage later on clothing I sew.💗 Thanks for sharing your helpful idea! Tutoluu!🌸

    Paola Jo, thank you so much for your video - I loved it and your uniqueness, My absolute best friend has latex allergy which has curtailed her life so much even going to the doctor is dangerous never mind a hospital! However, as for me, I'm not a very experienced quilter (have oodles of books and going short-sighted watching videos) I DID appreciate how you explained cutting fat quarters. I found your video while searching for the most efficient way to cut fat quarters into 2 1/2" strips. As you were cutting 5" squares I was desperately trying to work out how many 2 1/2" squares I could get from a fat quarter :-) I was scribbling madly while trying to watch. I bought three FQ and need to make 40 x 2 1/2" three strip sets and was trying to see if I have to buy more. They arrived this morning in the post and, if I won't have enough fabric, I will have to phone the shop to try and order three more before they are gone. I live in Dublin, Ireland, and it is so difficult to get supplies; for a capital city we don't have a quilt shop, just a few small stockists (like home businesses). If I order from the UK postage is bad enough, but it's impossible to order from the US as it would put fabric out of my price range altogether, hence my search for efficient frugality!! Again, thank you so much for giving so much information besides cutting, I really appreciate it and have hit the subscribe button, bell and thumbs up. Best wishes from my part of the world. Sorry for the long comment.

My first quilt lesson was with a nurse who told us there were many toes cut off from rotary cutter accidents, please make sure you Close the rotary cutter when you put down, a good habit to get into. I have seen people sew the selvedges cut off for book quilts as the spine of the book. Scraps can be used to stuff things with we came up with in our group door sausages that keep the wind out.

    Jodie McNamara 🌸Thanks for asking! 😎MrTallDarkHandsome&Helpful made my huge cutting tables from old church office doors, AND he built my huge ironing board! 🤔I should ask him what kind of wood he used (not regular plywood... more of a pressed partical board, but not stinky)... it’s 30x59 inches... wider than width of fabric for most bolts! So I can almost fit a full yard of fabric on there at one time! I can press most of a two yard cut in one fell swoop! he rounded the corners, and added three small but sturdy side boards underneath to fit securely around my biggest regular ironing board... then we added three layers of Hobbs Heirloom batting. We’ve covered it with a fresh layer of fabric every so often... an old cotton sheet, super smooth chintz, old white cotton tablecloth, a nice striped quilting cotton... it’s due for a new layer again. We use a staple gun most of the time... but sometimes the staples bend too easily...so he adds some fancy fencing staples in a few spots. I’ve tried thumb tacks, too... and upholstery tacks. Recently we moved it onto a sturdy rolling cart. 🤓

I’ve had all three of these pieces of clothing for about a decade... they are so comfy and practical for me... 💗The solid gray vest with huge gathered pockets was an expensive purchase from a cute little specialty shop, but goes with nearly everything in my wardrobe, so it has worked out to be a penny per wearing! It’s a rayon knit paperweight T-shirt fabric... washes beautifully, never shows wrinkles, doesn’t add any weight or pressure to my neck... and can be tied closed, or worn inside out (pocket side in) for a changed up look. I plan to make some of these in other colors! 👗The black&white paisley dress is also rayon... it’s a comfy loose version of a “babydoll” sundress, with adjustable straps, and a gathered ruffled bottom edge... the neckline is scooped in front, and straight in back (with a bit of covered elastic). I have about 6 of these in various colors! I think LORI found these at Target years ago... works great with leggings and a turtleneck, or over a long slender t-shirt dress, or alone as a comfy sundress on a hot humid day... and it’s perfect under my vests and cardigans... or to add just a ruffled skirt look under a plain T-shirt. 🧣The pink rayon scarf was probably also purchased at Target. Again, I have several colors of this style, but was very disappointed that some get staticky or scratchy and don’t drape as nicely as this one. 😷With all my allergies and sensitivities, I’ve used these long loose layers for years to cover my nose/mouth... or used a corner of them to open doors, (tie one knot to assign a constant clean corner vs dirty corner... and wash them after each use) (👩‍⚕️As a dental hygienist for 30 years, I had the habit of always using my right pockets as clean storage and left pockets as dirty storage.) 🌸Thanks for watching, commenting, and sharing my videos!🤗Tutoluu!🌸

    SederQuilts - It seems that you find the handle on the ruler the most useful, if my opinion is correct. Have you ever considered making your own handled ruler? Why not buy the suction cup "handle" that contractors use to handle installation of mirrors? You can find those gizmos on Amazon. That way, you can unhook that handle and transfer it to another ruler when necessary. Here is a description of the thingy: The cheaper ones are about $12 --- Useful - This handy Double Handle suction cup lifter can firmly stick to any clean non-porous flat surface, an ideal tool for lifting and moving glass, sheet metal, granite, furniture, home appliances and so on. Save handling time and labor. Design - Aluminum Alloy shell, Electric Polishing, natural rubber,2 year life span Notion - for anything that has a smooth surface where suction can be created. No water, No oil Quality -The vacuum suction cup through the CE, SGS, RoHS, PAHS certification. Warranty: 1 year 100% satisfied quality guarantee.

    🌸Excellent question! No. You do NOT need to prewash for quilting. If most of your fabric for the quilt is already prewashed (recycled clothes, red fabrics that might bleed, or stinky for some reason...) you might also want to prewash “yardage” (new fabric that is a yard or more)... But No, you do not need to prewash for quilting Many of us use pre-cuts now (5” squares, 10” squares, or fat quarters) and you certainly don’t want to pre wash those If you mainly SEW or make CLOTHING, then yes, you want to prewash yardage before cutting out pattern, so it doesn’t shrink after you have it all sewn together. Cherrywood hand dyed fabric is ALREADY prewashed eight times during the process of adding their yummy colors to it... and many people use it to make clothing.

He trimmed one edge off to fit perfectly, and rounded all the corners and edges slightly, (even rounded and sanded the wood corners) to not catch or snag fabric. 🙃I prefer the mat to be wrong side up, so I don’t wear out the same exact line all the time. You can still see through it enough to line up the straight edge, but I “measure” with the rulers 📐or a metal construction tape. (Cutting mats can warp and are not always exactly the same as the other measuring tools.) 🔄I often rotate fabrics a bit, too, so the cut marks are more random and we don’t end up getting stuck in a rut on the mat that way!🤓 💗Thanks for watching and commenting!

    Vonney Wright 🌸🎉🌸🎉🌸Welcome to my channel! I’m so glad you found me!!🥰 Ahhh yes... I have several huge cutting mats... from Joannes ... and flipped over... so I can still kinda sorta see the lines, but prefer to go by the RULERS, instead of cutting trenches in the same mat lines all the time (ask me how I know that ruins your mat quickly😳😬😉). Thanks for stopping by! 🥰Come back again! Tutoluu!🌸

    Sheri Sterling yes there are 5” rulers available; and MSQC did offer the Olpfa no slip handle ruler (pins push down to hold fabric in place) at one time. But they are out of stock and no longer available. I believe the Olipfa company is no longer in business.

    Two questions....Is your cutting mat turned with the wrong side facing up? If so, what is your reasoning for that? Thanks in advance for your response.

    Cheryl Taylor 🤓Good eye! Yes it is! There are several reasons... (and several mats😉) My first two cutting mats wore out... 🌸I had 6.5” repeats marked in one color, 10.5” repeats marked in another color...(our church ladies use those sized blocks) I worked out of town full time and couldn’t attend the Quilting time, so I cut LOTS of squares , and eventually cut all the way through the mat in those main tracks. 🤓Then I moved those marks over to a new starting spot... and wore through those tracks, too. So I flipped that mat over on one table and bought a new mat. 🤔Then Marcia Stephens told me to not trust the mat markings, Always Trust Your Ruler Markings; and Don’t Cut On The Lines All The Time... it creates trenches and inaccurate cuts... Marcia recommended cutting at all sorts of different angles on the mat, whenever possible, to increase the life of the mat... just trust the hard ruler and a metal construct tape measure. The next reason is NOT ALL RULERS AND MATS ARE MARKED EXACTLY THE SAME. So be sure your ruler and mat are marked equally. Mats can warp. They melt a twitch from hot things (tell me you never set the hot or still warm iron on there while cleaning up!) or from sun ; or they bend while standing behind the hutch next to a heat vent, etc. Goodness that was a long answer. And I have more to say, but it’s too hard to read back far enough to see what I typed so far. 🤔I should do a video on this topic. Thank you dear for your excellent questions! 😉Hope I was helpful 🌸Tutoluu!💗

    Seder Quilts Makes a lot of sense to me. Especially the part about cutting right through the mat!! LOL That would take tons of cutting that an average quilter wouldn't be doing. I've also heard not to trust the lines on the mat. Don't remember who said that, but I do use one of my mats in the "up side down" position for squaring blocks, primarily because I find the lines too confusing and they definitely are not accurate. Thank you very much for your response! Good luck on your future tutorials/videos. I'll be watching!

    Cheryl Taylor yeaaay! I’m glad it made sense. My earlier cutting table was huge and low, I would hold the ruler w my knee... I probably used waaay too much pressure cuz I was too frugal to replace blades often enough. And I cut through one while using a carpeted floor instead of a hard surface. 🤓I’ve experimented and puzzled and made lots of good mistakes... so it allows me to be a good teacher. 💗 Please check out more of my Hundred Helpful Quilting Videos and follow me on Facebook 🌸Tutoluu!😊

    Donna - if you ever use Febreze, keep the empty spray bottles. Their spray attachment is perhaps the best one available. The empties from window cleaner fall apart a lot faster, but I use those until I use up the Febreze.

    ⁠@@donnarichey144🌸Oh my goodness! How did I miss answering your question!?! We started filming a great little tutorial about the sharpener I use, and looked into carrying them… Being a bit of a blended “perfectionist and procrastinator” with a healthy scoop of oodles of good options popping into my head (and misplacing my lists) …. Oh dear! It’s still on several of my lists of videos to make! I don’t remember the brand name of the sharpener… it’s a green round, two sided circle with a coarse and fine option…. And then a two pieced handle that screws together to hold the rotary blade. It must be 40-50 years old… I’ve had it forever! 🤗Now I’ll have to start researching again, and move this closer to the top of a fresh list! 🌸Thank you for encouraging me to start making new helpful videos now that I am healthy again!🌸 Tutoluu! 🤗

    I forgot to mention that I always "overcast" the non-salvage edges before I wash the fabrics! (It's similar to serging, but nothing is cut off. My Janome has that stitch.)

    FatQuarters purchased in U.S. are different measurement than Canadian fat quarters so be careful when following a pattern that calls for fat quarters...Canadian metre is 36".....a U.S. yard is 39"....so 18" and 19.5" would be the fatquarters measurements...

    D H good point... the USA and Canadian measurements are different... a US yard is 36 inches, so half a yard is 18”... a Canadian meter is 39 inches, half a meter is 19.5”... Width of fabric varies, usually 40-42” wide for a regular bolt, (even though many of us grew up calling them 45” bolts of fabric.) 🌸
