Sometimes someone needs additional instructions. You can always speed up the You Tube tutorial but they have no options when rhe additional instructions are left out. Everyone learns at a different pace and amount of instructions.

Loved the tutorial. Retired and on fixed income. Greatly appreciate that it is free. Suggestion: Use different color inks for sewing lines versus cutting lines.

I have to tell you, I had put off finishing quilts for my grandbabies forever because I loathed making the triangle cuts! This has just renewed my inspiration to get back to it! Thank you for posting this video! ❤

You are a very clear speaker. I enjoyed it very much. You speak at just the right speed. I will be subscribing. Thanks.

​@Sugar Stitches Quilt Co. Good thinking! Thanks. I love that you used a simple method to do this. New quilters will start off understanding the geometry instead of templates and rulers. I say this bc I had an awful time concentrating on those instead of the actual shape of the fabric piece itself.

Such an awesome way to cut more than 1 at a time!! Goodness! Thank you for your time, your right to the point in teaching and for the download of your guide! Blessings to you!! ❤

Oh thank you so much!!!!

Excellent can’t wait to try it!!

Nice clear tutorial. It looks to me like you starched the fabric rather heavily, and that's a good idea, because it holds the threads still and reduces stretching when sewing. If you did in fact use starch, you might want to mention that. And if you didn't starch, try it, because it makes the fabric behave!

@sugarstitchesquiltco

This is a great tutorial and great idea. As a high school math teacher, I loved that you called the sections "quadrants." I would like it better though if you had the top right as Quadrant 1 and the top left as Quadrant 2, going around the square counterclockwise as we all learned in our Algebra classes. But that's just me.

One thing. When you've cut the big square down to the 4 squares and started using rotating mat cut your perpendicular and horizontal lines (middles), you should then rotate mat again, without lifting up material or shifting material, then cut the diagonal seams. Saves a ton of time.
