Is there any way to get the pattern for that beautiful quilt being used as a tablecloth at very beginning of video…Is has a black ground …Is very bold and I love it..Any help would be greatly appreciated….Thank you so much
I am not a quilter and I do not care for the design of a lot of quilts - I prefer the look of simple patchwork quilts. This rectangle/brick layout design I love! Your demonstration was clear and well done.
I agree! As impressive as it is with what all the machines can do these days, it just feels too gawdy and like it misses the point. But this hand-sewn style is so charming. And more talent involved IMO
yes! im a patch or brick lover, maybe even hexagons, but Im not into the fancy, complicated looking designs! Too busy for me
I’m the same, i love the crazy quilt look, so homespun. I’m going to do this. I love English paper piecing…this reminds me of that look. I try to do all quilts…quilt as you go, because they’re finished faster!
You are so right ! A great idea beautifully sewn. Brilliant !
Me as well! Not a quilter and the designs mostly are not for me nor I have the patience to sew quilts, but I LOVE this particular brick design. Makes me want to try it.
Thank you for using black thread. It is so much easier to see what you are demonstrating. Wonderful tutorial!❤
There are hardly any videos showing hand sewing quilt as you go methods. This video was fab, as I haven’t got a sewing machine and love hand sewing. Thank you 🤗
Thank you for this! I love hand sewing but find hand quilting to be so tedious and repetitive when doing a large blanket, but with this method it’s much smaller and you can change it up by switching between making rectangles and sewing them together! Much easier for us adhd crafters! I also like this method because it’s easier to tuck everything away and take breaks if you need.
👁👁 I really like this style. It is something you can carry with you most anywhere, and continue with the work.
Using black as the backing could give it a pretty stain glass look ❤
Ooooo I've never considered that, but I always loved the stained glass quilts!
I have not seen this hand stitched method of quilt-as-you-go before. It looks like fun and you have clearly shown how to do it. Thank you!
I think it created a really neat edge with hand sewing!
I appreciate your slow thorough instructions. You're a good teacher, thanks.
Thank you x
My mom used to call that a blind hem stitch. Thank you for this tutorial. ❤❤❤
I have started this brick work hand quilting. My first time hand sewing a quilt. I decided to use washable school glue for basting and it works quite wonderfully. Thank you for the inspiration.
Thank you for using a different color thread than you normally would that makes it possible for me to see quite easily what you're doing which is what is missing from a lot of the tutorials you just can't see what they're doing with the black thread on white that you're using it's really easy to follow you thank you
Чудесно ❤ спасибо большое,все понятно!Я люблю шить квилт,это новое для меня,буду пробовать.❤ещё я учу английский и слушать вас мне приятно и полезно ❤будьте здоровы
I think these bricks will make beautiful additions to clothes pockets, bags etc. It's a great way of quilting. You have given me ideas thank you 💖
I love that you're handstitching your work. My grandmothers made quilts during the Great Depression. They handstitched everything, and I want to pay them homage by doing the same ❤️
Aww this will be a lovely project for that. Thank you for watching x
Oh my gosh, this is one really beautiful quilt. I just stumbled upon your channel and have been enjoying this video immensely. I have never been much of a quilt person, although I have always admired the handiwork. I am 67 and have only just discovered English Paper Piecing. What a different world this has opened up for me. I am absolutely smitten by the process and look, and this quilt of yours seems to showcase it in such a beautiful way. The mindfulness of slow stitching has brought me such calm and peace…
I have never seen such a beautiful quilt. Everything about it sends me and I absolutely love it. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you, it is such an easy project to stitch aswell. EPP was how I got into hand stitching too.
Me encantó este proceso manuel de obtener algo hermoso como esa colcha. Tengo 73 años y creo que lo haré en algo pequeño como un camino de mesa. GRACIAS MIL POR TU TUTORIAL.
I appreciate the time you have taken and the effort you made for this tutorial, very clear instructions. I am looking forward to making a quilt like this. Thank you! 💐
Never seen a brick pattern before, nor thought of it! It's beautiful. The fabrics are beautiful too...makes me want to redecorate my entire bedroom, make quilts, curtains, pillow cases and light shades to match!
The easiest way to tie a knot where you want it, is to use a pin, similar to you using your nail but you can be more accurate with a pin. Put the pin point through the loop and draw the cotton and the pin away from each other, a bit more on one, then the other until you're almost at the exact spot you want your knot, then stick the pin straight down into the fabric, pull the thread to complete the knot around the pin. Pull the pin out of the knot once you're sure it's where you want it.
Ugh I HATE cotton thread. I only buy polyester thread for hand or machine sewing. The only cotton threads I do buy are embroidery flosses, or if I can grab some of the original Sylko mercerised cotton threads, that are still knocking around, despite it no longer being made. I learnt to sew as a child almost 50 years ago, (bloody hell that sounds depressing!) using Sylko cottons and they have a real sturdy feel to the thread between your fingers.
It's like you can feel how equally cylindrical it is throughout the entire length of the reel, and you can feel it's perfect roundness. A few years back I researched which is the closest equivalent to Sylko on the market now, and can only imagine I landed on a practical joke website! I bulk bought a box of black and white Coates Moon thread and spent the duration of their life expectancy swearing my head off!
Never again! It's like watching someone doing rustic traditional hand spinning with sheep's wool, where as best as they can they try to get even thickness throughout the yarn. But being handspun, it obviously has bulgy bits every so often, as it's not machine spun to perfection. That's exactly what Coates Moon cotton is like: thin, then thicker, then so thin is barely gripping itself, then a big thick lump that gets jammed in the needle with fibres everywhere. Just awful! Seriously ruined my enjoyment of sewing. I used them up sewing on paper projects for journals, and even those I made sure to glue properly first, cos I wasn't banking on the thread to do anything other than add pattern and texture.
At the risk of sounding like an old fart: (I'm 54!) "They don't make 'em like they used to!" 😂
Thank you for sharing. Don't know that I have the patience, eyesight or elegant fingers to do an entire quilt this way by hand nowadays, although hand sewing adds a certain warmth and charm that machine sewing just can't. But even if I can't make the whole thing by hand, I'm still very interested in this brick design, and I can add the quilting stitches by hand at the end, and whip them together a few a night.
Actually, I'm literally 4 days post hysterectomy, and am not allowed to lift barely a thing for twelve weeks, so you've given me the idea now, to do a few of these brick blocks by hand, to make a bag! I've currently got only enough wadding to make something small like a bag anyway, so that's perfect! 😊
Yay! I knew I wanted to do some sort of sewing, art or craft project to alleviate the post op boredom, but just couldn't find anything that inspired me to start...and now I do! 😁
Thank you! I'm eager to get cutting my pieces from my scrap basket now, I've got some lovely cotton fabric scraps that are too small for most projects, but will be perfect for this! This has made me VERY happy! I've finally chosen my convalescence project! 😘😘😘
Simply lovely! Thank you!❤😊
Thank you for video. I have watched this video earlier. Then I remember you showed how to do the Jacob ladder stitch. So, I came to watch again to relearn how to do the stitch. Thank you again.
Glad it was helpful! Happy stitching ❤️
what a lovely collection of sweetly printed fabrics
I'm not sure why I love this pattern so much - maybe it's the charming patterns she's using. idk - so appealing.
Enjoyed watching your demo, Rachel. You have a gentle way of presenting.
Glad you enjoyed it x
This was such a GREAT tutorial!! Thank you!!
Thank you for an excellent tutorial. I’d love to see the finished quilt, I’m sure it must be very attractive. Using the black thread whilst demonstrating is a very good idea.
You're welcome, I have only done a small section of the quilt so far but I will be sure to post updates on my channel x
I think I could do this! Thanks for making it look manageable.
Thank you for doing this Rachel. I love the brickwork effect.
You're welcome, it's really affective with the cream aswell. X
Love how this quilt is turning out, thanks for showing how those templates worked 😊
You're welcome Mandy, thank you for watching xx
I know I am late to the party I have recently started slow stitching and run my cotton thread through the edges of a block of beeswax it strengthens the thread and glides through the material much easier without leaving a residue I watched my mother do it so thought I would try.
Beautiful. I envy people who have patience like this. Wonderful.
This is a great project when travelling.
Thank you so much for the brilliant tutorial. Your quilt will be lovely when it's finished. Thank you again x
Thank you! 😊
Great tutorial. I can't wait to start another project😊
I love that!!! Beautiful!!!
I'm excited to find you. I always wanted to try quilting by hand stitching. The brick pattern is gorgeous.
I really like this! You've made it look so easy! And, I like the way you go slowly, and explain what you're doing. I didn't feel like you rushed it, like some people. Thanks. 😊
I love your choices of color and prints ! ❤
I totally love this idea. Your quilt will be stunning!
Beautiful!! I've never seen this before. I love it❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for showing us this block Rachel. I've caught the EPP bug, which has lead me into this sort of hand work. It's so soothing. It was amusing when you mentioned your nails - I was just thinking that you looked like a 'normal' person (please don't be offended!) as all the other You Tube tutorials look like they're done by hand models rather than real people. So thank you for that too. Thought this block would be good with my many unused jelly rolls, which I couldn't think of anything different to do with them - so thank you for that too lol.
Aww thank you for such a sweet comment! The EPP bug will stay with you for life, I hope you have lots of fun with your hand sewing. Yes someone else in the comments said that this would be good for jelly rolls, and I agree... if I could convince myself to cut into them xx
This was a wonderful tutorial. Thank you.
This looks so exciting, can't wait to try this! Thanks!
I love your brickwork pattern!
Lovely tutorial! Thank you!
Such a good idea! So beautiful.❤
Beautiful work and very well explained. Thanks
Fabulous work ❤ and bless your heart for having the patience to do that by hand!
Beautiful work Rachel, you are an inspiration! What a great way to use up my scraps!
I think is lovely and I love hand sewing ~ Thank you.
Love your quilting, I'm loving your work. Thank you for your wonderful video s
Historically, that was called a flat fell stitch, I believe, and was often used to hand stitch clothing (modern blind-hem stitching is based on that). I usually secure my flat fell stitched with a knotted backstitch. Your stitches are beautifully neat and I love the colors of your quilt!
Какая прелесть!Из этого можно сделать что угодно!Какая вы молодец!
Very nice. Thank you for the darker thread and close ups. Wonderful work
Love this method. This would be good for me since most of the quilts I construct are baby or youth size.
SUBSCRIBED! This is beautiful with the lovely fabrics and stitching. Looks like a calming project and can be taken anywhere and with few supplies. It
Thank you, yeah you can prep the blocks before hand and sew on the go!
An amazing take along quilt
LOVELY! I'm so inspired.
love ur soft voice ur easy teachings ty ty
Thank you for sharing this. Great skill and technique!
Thank you, Rachel.....I am starting on mine today..love it!!
Such a lovely technique and your instructions are great!
Oh mon dieu que c est beau ! Bravo bravo 👏
Que bonito!!! Las telas preciosas , y a mano de principio a fin !!! Gracias por compartir ☺️
Love this Rachel thanks so much for sharing 😍
Thank you for this tutorial. I will be ordering and beginning a scrappy quilt...
Very good tutorial. Beautiful work! What a gorgeous blanket.
I really like this tutorial….I’m picking out my pieces to start one. Can’t wait to get started.
FYI: I do what Kate at the Last Homely House dies when hand quilting abd run my theead across beeswax to keep it strong, it will not split and will not break as easily. Thanks for this tutorial. ❤
That's how you strengthen cotton thread. If you use a polyester thread wax shouldn't be necessary. I don't use polyester as I have seen when you use 100% cotton fabric, polyester thread is stronger than the weave of the cotton fabric. That can cause the cotton fabrics to split and tear. Many years of washing and wear before that happens. It depends if you expect your quilts to be heirlooms.
@@TraceyWarneke Im pretty sure she is just adding to the conversation, the different threads were already said. It's actually a tip I forgot and bought polyester after watching this the first time, and now kicking myself because I have the same colour cotton and beeswax here.
Very clear tutorial. Thank you!
Omg this is a stunning project and something I'm now going to add to my quilting "must do" products
Cant wait to see the finished quilt 😊
Great tutorial and I love the look of all of it. Thanks so much for sharing of your time and talents.
Hi Rachel, Nice instructional tutorial very good. My templates arrived today, excited to get some pieces cut out and start. Thank you for the good instruction.
Glad it was helpful! Happy stitching
You are an AMAZING teacher. I absolutely love this tutorial and will be creating a quilt just as you’ve taught me!!! THANK YOU ❤ THANK YOU! I have needed just this type of direction as I have way to make a quilt by hand. But felt a little overwhelmed. You have made me emboldened!! Great job.
Beautiful work! I made a crazy type quilt in that style just last month! Thanks very much for showing how you do the buried knots and the ladder stitch to join, I'm onto a new one so very helpful 😀 you're work is beautifully made. Cheers 👍👍
How beautiful!
Thank you for the video. I've been trying to figure out for years how my grandmother and mother hid the stitches and made such wonderful quilts. Now I know. Thank you.
I enjoy watching this video I learned something new thank you.😊
I've never quilted before but I love this design, the hand-stitching and color palette. I think I'm gonna go for it and make one! Love this.
Go for it!.. you will have such good fun and it's a really good starting block - maybe you'll get hooked in quilting!
Awesome demo, I think I will give it a go. Thank you so much.
Love this. I'm completely new to this. Really happy to find you. I'm from the UK and find so many channels from the US and am so happy to find you from here. You know you can get the products easily too. Thank you x
Welcome aboard!
I enjoyed your video. Great instructions and explanations. I’m making a hexagon quilt as you go and love how your work looks.
This looks like a fun project! I’ve added it to my long to do list! 😊
THESE videos need their own playlist so I can keep track of them
This tutorial is fantastic! Thank you very much!
You are very welcome! X
Love these. TY for sharing 💕
Great tutorial,very well explained and I thought it another great way to do a quilt as you go , I am half way through a Hexagon shape quilt,but I think this will be my next project Thankyou Elizabeth T.
Wow!!! What a marvelous technique. I can’t wait to try this. I’v long wanted a hand sewing project for when I don’t want to be stuck at the machine.
It's such a relaxing project aswell! X
very pretty fabric
Hi Rachel! I'm so excited after buying from Missouri Quilt (with your code)! You've inspired me to start my own project. This is perfect for me and with all the great fabric I have, I'll have so much fun putting all the patterns and colors together. I bought a cream jelly roll for the border color. I thought that might work well. So, thank you so much for creating this video! I really needed something to soothe my anxiety and some therapeutic busy-work to fill my spare time. Thank you from Savannah, Georgia - USA❤
Hi Rachel, Just happened to see your video. Thanks so much!! I can't wait to try this. I also appreciate your use of black thread so we can actually see what you are doing. Hugs
So beautiful!
I love all things hand sewn and this was a great project and tutorial. I just ordered the templates and can't wait to get started. This was a great tutorial and it was nice that you used dark thread so we could see your work.
Love this idea. May need to try it. Thanks.
Wonderful explanation! Thanks a lot!
Very pretty work! I cant wait to give this a try!
So lovely, I will need to try these type quilts soon !!!
So lovely. Makes me want to try hand quilting. TY.
