NEW! Clue 5 of 6 of our SUMMER MYSTERY Quilt 2024! Are you DARING enough to make an unknown pattern?
A mystery quilt is where you pick out fabric and cut and sew according to the directions without actually knowing what the finished project will look like. You have to trust us that the pattern will work out! We tested this pattern at our spring retreat and had many who finished the quilt top and some of them even loved their quilt top! The pattern is tried and true and you will watch every step of my quilt top and learn some tips and tricks on the way. During the last clue you will see the finished quilt and a SECOND quilt we have made using Kansas Troubles fabrics! It is so pretty!
Join us every other Sunday for this mystery quilt! This is clue five of six different clues. The finished size of the quilt top is 54" x 54". You can obviously make it bigger if desired. I will share some options during the last clue to make it larger. I will also give you some ideas during the last clue if you want a rectangular versus square quilt top. Each clue will contain the cutting and piecing instructions for part of the quilt. Patterns are available in the files section of our Facebook group called The Quilted Forest Friends, which may be found at this link:
groups/348191223475240.
The full instructions are in the video, you can easily make the mystery by just watching the video, pausing, and following the instructions as you go.
Here are links to some of the products used in this video:
Diagonal Seam Tape: amzn.to/4bwEuLf
Blade Saver Thread Cutter: amzn.to/3VTDhst

  • @CALL_ON_JESUS_TO_BE_SAVED

    I am new to quilting and this would be the first video I see of a fabric store with lots of questions. What are those big panels used for where you hold up the fabric and it looks like a 3' x 6' panel, what do you do with those?? Also it looks like your shelves are stocked full of fabric and yet you're unboxing so much more. What do you do with all that inventory and then adding more boxes to it all?? And then my last question is when I decide on a block that I want to make how do I know how much fabric to order to turn that block into a quilt?? Like I said I'm new to quilting and my head is just spinning with all the different blocks to choose from and all the different fabrics, it is like my brain is saying too much input!!!

  • @notesfromleisa-land

    A Bernina # 57 foot (the gated foot) is my most valued possession. With on needle click to the right (the foot will accommodate 2 clicks as will the straight stitch plate) you get a perfect scant quarter, and a perfect quarter with no adjustment. The foot glides over seams (unlike the flimsy flanges on other 1/4" feet) and does not toe out. I can production sew (as you often do) and have perfect results. No futzing with ledges and all sorts of workarounds.
