New to quilting? Brushing up on your skills? THIS video is for you! This is a follow up to my first one—THE ULTIMATE QUILT VIDEO. But it’s all about the 9 PATCH BLOCK. …which is a classic that you will use time and again!
I’ll show you two different methods—10 blocks at a time. Yay!
And then we’ll make an entire quilt from beginning to end, with all the details, so you feel like we’re sitting there together, making quilts, and, possibly making mistakes (haah! See if you can spot mine). WATCHTHE ULTIMATE 9 PATCH QUILT VIDEO HERE.
This is a fun project to work on when you need some Decompress alone time—-with just you and your machine. Okay, WATCH THE ULTIMATE 9 PATCH QUILT VIDEO HERE:
Summer’s almost here and I’m excited to wear all the summer things! You’ve seen this tank top before in my citrus fabric. AND my cat fabric. And now I made it in STRAWBERRY FABRIC…. WITH A VIDEO TO GO ALONG. YAY!!
If you’ve never sewn with knit fabrics (or if you have) they are a fun adventure. They don’t need to be scary. In fact I’ve got a really helpful video with Tips + Tricks on my channel. The cool thing is, you don’t need a fancy sewing machine to sew knit fabrics. You can do it right on your standard machine!
And, if you’re not sure how to make a pattern piece for your tank, I walk through that in my video too!
I’ll also show you how to add some fun side slits on the hem of the tank. Cheers.
You know what goes great with your oven mitts?? You guessed it. An APRON!….with a free pattern….and only 30 minutes to whip one up. YESSSSSSS.
We’ve sewn a HALF APRON before HERE. But many of you asked for a full bib apron, so here you go! It’s one size fits most. And there’s a pocket!…for chilling, holding stuff, or looking like a baking pro. . This project is great for beginners (and beyond) because we sew a bunch of straight lines. And you can mix and match fabrics for pockets and straps. Okay, LET’s MAKE APRONS!

Sewing Machine Recommends: My favorite sewing machines are the Baby Lock Genuine Series. These are entry level machines that have a broad price range, so if you’re not sure how deep you want to go on sewing haha, these are awesome. I have the Brilliant and Joy machines from this series. These are what I sew with in all of my videos. You can purchase and read some reviews on this site: http://shrsl.com/2djmj
