What Quilting Taught Me...About Directional Fabric
Hannah shows how to adapt a 3-yard quilt pattern to work with your directional fabric. She made a quilt for her nephew and realized her fabric selection was not going to work with the pattern she had chosen, but with a little creativity you can still turn those mistakes into a wonderful quilt! 🔽Quilt Patterns & Quilt Kits🔽

More than likely, you are the only one who sees and know where your mistakes are. It’s still cute!
Hanna is VERY GOOD at this. Easy to follow and no giggles!!
Hannah, what a succinct lesson. Your delivery is beyond perfect, clear, precise, and fun, fun, fun! Love ❤️ to all of Fabric Cafe
We all take these fix-it shortcuts!! Very few people will see any errors.
Hi Hannah! I really like your fireman quilt! It is so fun and I am sure your nephew will love it. We all have to make "adjustments" to our quilts from time to time. I have a 3 yard quilt using Puppy Pals fabric from a few years ago. I ended up having to piece one of my blocks due to a mis-cut. I knew how I was going to quilt it so tried to hide my piecing seam in the line of quilting. Worked out great and is not noticeable at all. We all goof from time to time and you are right that we are the only one who will notice. This was a really great video!! Thanks so much.
I made this pattern and managed to choose 2 directional fabric. So instead of doing stripe piecing for the sashing, I had to cut each cornerstone and set it in separately. It was a good lesson to pay attention to my pattern choice and requirements. I also seam ripped when I understood my problem and had to fix it.
Great to see you, Hannah! You’re looking glamorous today. Thanks for the encouragement to think outside the box.💕
No one would have ever notice! I have done it many times because my cutting skills had a mind of their own
Great video Hannah! I love your quilt and I appreciate you sharing your tips and tricks. Happy quilting…………………..
Thanks Hannah! Your right there with all of us making a mistake and having to call on Jack the Ripper to help out. Thanks for sharing 🧵🪡
I love.Valerie's take on Suite Times. Gorgeous and brilliant. And ❤️ I love a math challenge. I adore a rectangle. Thanks, Valerie and Hannah
Great save on the quilt block! And what a great idea. I would not have noticed it at all especially with that print.
Love the quilt. Wonderful video 🥰
Thanks Hannah. Love your video.
Love your honesty in sharing it’s ok to make a Mess-up
Thanks Hannah! Great video and helpful tips. ❤
Hannah, Thank You so much for sharing !! Great ideas.... hugs

Thank you! 😊
Great job Hannah.
Hello Hannah, great video today showcasing, the quilt that you made. I really liked how you went through and explained everything in detail. I think all the videos on fabric Cafe should be done this way it was perfect. Thanks again I saved this video for future reference. ♥️
Another great video explaining step by step instructions including mistakes, how I so appreciate your including those!! Mistakes only make that quilt more unique. I made Suite Times with directional pink elephants. I cut out the strips but then cut the blocks and chain pieced to the sashing so I could turn my elephant block the right direction. Then I cut my unit pieces. Hope that made sense! Really enjoy your series!
No mistake there! Looks cute. I love your colors! Thanks for showing your quilt!
I have done the same thing a couple of times due to both error on my part and by not having quite enough fabric. One of the times I was working with a larger print so I ended up matching the repeats like wallpaper before sewing them. It actually turned out pretty good and no one could tell (until I pointed it out which I know you're not supposed to do.) But as my grandmother would say "You'll never see it on a trotting horse."
I have had to modify cut sizes like Hannah did for the sashing because I prefer to prewash my fabrics (for a variety of reasons) and sometimes the fabric shrinks so much that I can't get the cut sizes specified. Thankfully, math is my jam...so no stress!
Hannah, your growth as a quilter is tremendous. I'm always happy when you are the featured sewist because your enthusiasm and joy are inspiring and remind me of myself back in the 70s and 80s when I began quilting. 🎶💐💖🫂
I've had to do the same thing in making a Block. It truly makes a unique "hand made" quilt. Good job!
Nice explanations. And such cute fabrics!
Hanna, thanks a bunch for the special tips on using one way fabrics! Those ideas really do help! The flames quilting design was a perfect choice! I know your nephew loves it!
Great ideas Hannah! Thanks for sharing.
I was thinking recently how we hadn't seen Hannah for a while! I did not see the extra strip in the block until you pointed it out even when the camera focused close in beforehand. Good to see these corrections as it shows how easy it is to fix them. Valerie's quilt is fantastic too. These quilts are all so versatile and easy to tweak. Brilliant as always 😀
Your experience with the miscut reminds me of one of the huge lessons I am learning: no one sees your mistakes besides you. I am almost compelled to point out where my seams are off or my freemotion butterflies were badly done but no one else who saw the quilt saw or cared.
Very cute😊
Thanks for sharing - love this.♥️ Great tips.
Thank You
Super cute quilt and fun tutorial. I love the elephant fabric, do you have a kit with that?
I understand what you are getting at when putting from top to bottom. May I ask why didn't you put together left to right. By the way a lovely quilt for children what about for an adult
Help I love your Elephant fabric you used to explain the problem with the tic tac directional fabric. Do you still carry it? Or can you tell me the company and designer? Thanks
This video had me so confused, I won't be trying this pattern for that reason 😥. The quilt was really cute though!

If you don't use directional fabrics, you won't have a problem with this pattern.
I would like to make a feline quilt that looks like a feline for a friend who is cat crazy.
