Watching this 10 years after you posted it. I am a beginner quilter and this is great to learn from. Thank you.
I am a beginner quilter although I have sewed for years. I have just found your channel and I love your videos - so practical, inspiring and , for me, “do-able”! Thank - you!
THIS IS GENIUS!! My first quilt had these sashing posts and it was a nightmare, for me, to get everything perfectly aligned. What a headache!! I swore I would NEVER do them again!! When I saw this post I was amazed at the simplicity and you cannot mess it up - perfect alignment 😁 Thank you Susan, you're a quilting angel 💖
So kind of you! Learning and many errors. Your tutorial is wonderful.
Just wanted to say. THIS METHOD HAS REVOLUTIONIZED MY PIECING. Ideas have exploded in my head and I can't keep up with all of them. So I started keeping a diary of quilt pattern suggestions. If I don't get to make them maybe whoever inherits it will try a few. Still passing on your wonderful method. You have made me feel so smart. I tell anyone that sees my quilts to watch your channel. I get so excited to share you with all my friends. Happy Quilting. 😉
Wow! thanks so much. I am so thrilled it triggered something in you and I look forward to seeing some of your revolutionary quilts!
I am a beginner in quilts. Haven't sewed thought for years dues to 2 strokes. Watching this, you showed how to do a beginner quilt that I can start with and I will understand better how to do the sashings a lot easier. Thanks
What a lovely way to use up all the 5” squares I have lying around, and you’ve made the sashings and cornerstones so much easier!
Brilliant, thank you! I’ve just come back to watch today as I used this method a few years ago and it worked so well, now I’m ready to use it again on my pieced blocks.
Me too!
This is The BEST Way to do sashing! Your CZcams videos have made me a better quilter. Thank you❤🎉
A beautiful way to use 5" charms. Thank you for your tutorial.
As a beginner, visual tutorials are priceless! I have been scared of cornerstones until I watched your video 😊 Thanks for sharing!
Your teaching style is great! No "extra" talking, straight forward and at a good pace. Really enjoyed your video and I will be making my newly born grandson a quilt with this pattern. Thank you!
I must have watched this first many years ago! Then I have a quilt to do with cornerstones and thought I had better check CZcams….. and Lo and Behold… here you are with the best cornerstone tutorial!! So much better than long strips. Thank you
Thank you for watching, quilting is so delicious, it doesn't need to be difficult!
Oh my gosh! This so much simpler than the way I had been doing this! I am definately going to put the posts in this way from now on! Thanks a million for this terrific tutorial!
You've taken a complicated pattern and turned it into something wonderfully easy.... thank you so much!😊
I giving this a try on my next blocks. Looks so much easier than the long strips. Thank you.
you are a very good instructor and you make interesting blocks from simple squares
That’s a great system. Much better then making miles and miles of strips and cornerstone that doesn’t match the quilt.🌸💕
Yes, this is a wonderful idea to keep things from getting wavy! I love this!
This technique is amazing!!!!! I was just trying to figure this out in my head the other day. Turned on You Tube and their you were teaching the best method ever. I can see that you always know what you are doing by your confidence while you see and demonstrate. Thank You for taking the time to teach the novice. I then in turn teach at least three others in Illinois and I am in Ca. Thank God for the age of digital photography and the internet and YOU!!!
It helped immensely! I’ve been attaching my squares and dashing in long rows and then sewing them all together, it never turns out as straight and neat as I’d like it. Thank you!
Just an amazing way to attach sashings and posts!! Thank you so much! I can't wait to make my nephew's quilt using a novelty squares and posts!
So methodical! And makes perfect sense. Love it. The blue quilt is just beautiful.
Thanks so much. Very helpful. No longer dreading the fight with sashing. I have a quilt I’ve been wanting to do, but dreaded the sashing. Excited to tackle it now. Thank you!
I love your videos and I am so grateful for your insight and teaching in such a way that I can follow your line of thinking. You are appreciated :-) Thanks for all you do!
Many blessings,
E.
Rewatching several 5” videos today. Your instruction is so easy to follow. Was looking for a scrap buster block. This will work nicely. Thanks
Thank you so much. Someone from my quilt group introduced me to this video. I made this quilt and really enjoyed it. It's a fun way to use up scraps.
Thank you for this! I used this method to finish my quilt. Excellent instructions. I believe you saved me a lot of time and headaches... Cheers!!
Thank you so much for your tutorial and showing your completed quilts as well. Both quilts are beautiful. My brand new quilting group is still in it's infancy and we're all still learning together how to quilt. We received a wonderful gift of several hundred pre-cut 5" by 5" squares by our local senior center and we just LOVE this idea of putting the sashing and the corner block on. What an easy way to keep everything straight and in line. Your a wonderful teacher.
Used this to make a baby quilt - amazing!! Turned out every nice! Thank you for all the tips and the pattern!
I have just made my first sashed quilt top using this tutorial! Thank you for this, it has been inspiring and i am now no longer afraid of sashing!! !
Thank you for such a thorough explanation on sashing. I started quilting about a year ago, and have struggled trying to match the sashing. Your technique is amazing! Makes it so much easier to match everything. Thank you for such a wonderful tutorial. I look forward to watching more of them.
Thank you for sharing this technique. I was just getting ready to put my quilt blocks together and discovered this video. I’ve just now finished sewing my sashing and posts and am getting ready to sew everything together. I can see how this technique helps everything line up so well. 👏👏👏
I've seen this done many different ways but your way is SO much easier!! Your instruction is so clear and easy to follow. Thank you so much for sharing! Your finished quilts are lovely!
Thank you for the clear instructions. I've used your instructions with sashings and posts and the results were stress free and beautiful. I always learn something from your videos than I can use in my quilt making.
this video really helped me and answered all my questions about adding the sashing and corners. Thank you so much
I was told to put setting blocks in, so I was looking for that phrase, thank you so much for showing me how to do just that. I really love this video. Thank you.
Thank you for simplifying adding sashing. I have always Don it the long way and most of the time it didn’t match. You are a genius
I REALLY love the colors in the quilt being made!! It looks so "Spring-y" or "Summer-y" and fresh! I would love to see it finished. Thank you so much for this tutorial, especially the advice at the end regarding using the same color posts! I was going to ask about that! I was so scared about making looooong, skinny strips, trying to keep them pinned in place, and lined up correctly; this is a lifesaver!!
Thank you for a great video. I have just finished sashing a quilt top using this method and it was so much easier to keep things lined up and straight.
Great tutorial, and I love how it helps keep all my blocks lined up neatly. Thank you!
I love the way you to teach - very methodical and straightforward. Thank you so much for this technique that I plan to use soon.
wow, thank you! Yes, this does allow more accuracy, which I like although am not a fanatic on! Thank you for the comments on the quilts, the blue one is rather yummy! I am thrilled to think that these videos may be helping quilters, I just love to make quilts myself!
I am getting ready to make my first quilt. Thank you so much for creating this tutorial. You explain it in detail for me to understand it. Looking forward to viewing all your other tutorials in the future. Thanks again
This method changed the way I put my quilt tops together. Simply amazing
Oh my goodness! I wish I had a dollar for every time I've wrestled loo-o-ong strips of sashing and tried to line up the corner posts accurately - I'd be a wealthy woman! Susan, your method is utterly brilliant and thank you so much for sharing it. Suddenly, I need to make quilts for my nieces... :D
U r so proper. And such a lady. Wish I would have seen this 12 quilts ago. What a time saver, and quite straight. Thank u for sharing
love the way you do your tutorials! been watching yours for a while now. your a great teacher. keep up the great work!
Thanks for sharing this method. I have a quilt in progress now that I have been joining the sashing strips and cornerstones (posts) in a long row! I will immediately convert to your method!
Watched this for the 3rd time today because today I need to do this, and remembered your excellent video showing so clearly how to do this. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Much better way of doing sashing!! Thanks, I can use this in so many projects.
Excellent. Much easier than long strips.
Thank You so much for the easy to understand tutorial. You are a delightful teacher. Blessings!
I'm making a small drunkerd's path and do not want the blocks be too close, so I will use this excellent lesson . Thank you very much. I'm your fan from Barcelona.
Sashing made easy! Beautiful quilts. Your instructions are so clear, it took the mystery out of what seemed like a complicated quilt.
I’ve always been too insecure about using corner blocks but now I’ve tried your tutorial and ta-da! Success! I have lots of 5” squares so I’ll be whipping them up in no time, thanks to your wonderful tutorial. Thank you for sharing your marvellous talent, especially with a novice like me. 😊 You’re so right, quilting IS delicious 🙏
This is for sure the very best way I have found to do cornerstones. I tried to do them a couple times with the long sashings and it was just a hot mess. I haven't tried again for awhile. I had a really pretty pattern I wanted to try and started looking for another way to do cornerstones. When I found your video I knew that was it. Your instructions are clear and this is just the easiest way. They came out just perfect. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am looking forward to putting cornerstones on a lot more quilts. Have a blessed day.
Thank you! This makes it so much easier! I appreciate your easy to understand videos! This is a great way to use up some scraps!
I'm a beginner an was looking at totorials on quilting ect,, as I'm making my grandaughter a quilt,, came across your totorial an tried this today ,, I'm so very pleased with the result thanks to your help an instructions ,, I'll be watching more love it x
Thank you so much for all your helpful tutorials. I just finished my first big quilt with 100 blocks, and used your sashing method. It all came out amazingly square !! You are a very creative awesome lady !
I am making a rail fence quilt with 10 1/2" blocks. Couldn't figure out an easy way to add cornerstones until I watched your video. Thanks so much for doing this video.
Great tutorial. Bought the pattern as I now have all the fabric requirements and also would just need to add a tad extra to make it longer. Thanks for all your inspirational tutorials.
An understandable and simple method of accomplishing something that seems difficult. Lovely quilts and I, too, love the sound of your accent. Delightful.
It looks so beautifully easy and logical when you explain it, and I loved that big pale blue quilt too
A great way to add sashing and corner stones, I just cut fabric to make one but now I will sew it your way. Thank you for your many great ideas
i watched this tutorial some time ago , I am just getting round to making a large 5 inch square quilt with sashing and cornerstones so happy for your tutorial it will make it so much easier , rather than the long strip in between each row and your right i can chain so much of it to be faster. Thank you so much I'm a fan
Thank you for this perfect way to put sashing and posts in one's quilt! I agree, it is awkward to make the long strip and try to match everything up. Downright frustrating most of the time. This way, though, is enjoyable and works beautifully! You have a very nice teaching style.
Thank you so much for sharing, you make everything look so easy and straightforward which I find perfect for project Linus quilts which I am currently involved in. ❤
I am soooo glad that I found you...love all your videos....keep on keepin on....
This is my absolutely *favourite* beginner quilting video, and is likely one of the first I ever watched on CZcams after I began my 'fabric acquisitionist' hobby back in 2012 (and then soon thereafter realized that generous quilters such as yourself have video'ed and posted helpful tutorials such as this one). I immediately began cutting (only some) of the strips and posts needed to join four charm packs together into a quilt -- I learned later that it's best to do all of your cutting first before beginning assembly, so you don't run out of any one fabric!). It was so exciting working on that first quilt top! I have watched hundreds and hundreds of CZcams videos since then, but none have been as useful to me as this one. Did you ever imagine back in 2013 that you'd have 80 thousand subscribers to this channel, and over 311,000 views of just this video? Amazing! And that your online business would grow to the point where you are travelling worldwide with your craft? I bought those QuiltMania magazines, specifically for your Japanese Dolls pattern... and am now eyeing your "Metro Tiles" pattern with its quilt-as-you-go technique. Thank you for all you do for the quilting community, Susan-Claire, you are a rare gem among gems. Cheers. ~Diana from Toronto (Canada)
You’re amazing. I have loved every tutorial that I’ve watched on your channel and I’ve watched least 10. I love your colour choice your patterns to make it look doable. I am a beginner and I’ve only been sewing and karate for about five months 50%. And I’m so grateful that I found your channel. How do you so standing up you’re amazing thank you for the great tutorials. I will be trying to 5 inch block pattern.
Hello. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Everything is so tidy this way, and beautiful. Have a Blessed day! ♡♡♡
Thanks for watching, it is always good to see different methods, sometimes they even work! Enjoy!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I needed this information and your video was straightforward and easy to follow. Thanks!
Thank you very much.for your tutorials..you make it look quite easy. I have quite a lot of 5 inch squares I will get them sorted out and go for my life.....hopefully it will turn out as nice as yours....
Thank you for the great video. I am sewing my first quilt and was worried about misalignment using long strips. Your method is the solution! Your quilts are absolutely gorgeous.
I love this pattern! Thank you!
Thank you so much Susan. I love making quilt tops but wrestling a big quilt through a home sewing machine is just too difficult. Sashing like this has enabled me to work with and quilt four large squares, made up of several smaller blocks - then join them as in your QAYG video. Easy for me and I do enjoy a bit of hand sewing. Thank you again Susan. Even big quilts are now possible.😄
This was exactly what I needed to see. I hate putting cornerstones on in long strips. Thank you.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful tutorial. You were very easy to understand and your directions were very clear! Thanks again. I am going to try this pattern today. I agree with you, trying to sash long rows and match up squares is extremely difficult for me as well.:)
Bless you! I am truly amazed in how easy you make these blocks..I am going to do my my first quilt ever this way!
Thank you. I used to stay stay from sashing. I really like this sashing, and you've taken the mystery out of it. I'm excited to sash some squares now!
Sorry - that's supposed to read....stay away from...
I have made quilts which corner stone in the past. Wow I wish I had seen your tutorial first. This is so easy compared to the way I did mine. Thank You so much for the great tutorial. Your quilts are beautiful. Thanks and Blessings to you!
I can't wait to show you the quilt I made using this. Thank you so much.
Thank you for all your excellent videos. The process of putting these blocks together with the sashing and corner stones attached to each block allows the quilt to be more accurate. I love this. Your completed quilts in this pattern are beautiful - I especially love the blue one! Thank you for all you do to help us quilter's create better quilts.
Great simple instructions ! Can you tell me the size and make of your cutting mat please.
Thank you for this video, I loved learning this method for adding sashing squares!
I love this. I am having such an awful time keeping my fabric from stretching and warping to one side or the other. It seems to get that way when I am putting long strips together. This is wonderful and I can't wait to try it. Love all your videos!
This is a great idea for my new 5" charm pack. You're great and I love your tutorials. Thanks so much.
Really helpful tutorial... I've just pieced a quilt of 22"x10"" rectangles, with contrasting sashing & cornerstones following your method & it came together so quickly and neatly. Thank you for these awesome tips!!
Thank you so much for your videos, I enjoy them a bunch. Just getting started in quilting and have only done a couple and was stuck on how to do the sashing. You cleared it up for me. I love working with the 5 inch squares and buy them from a wonderful lady on ebay (suebeh) I have now over a thousand squares and all hand cut. Just finished doing 270 squares for my granddaughters engagement gift. Now I can sash it and get it finished. I'm doing the Queen size quilt in 6 sections. It will be easier to quilt, I have a new Grace frame but haven't been able to figure how to use it. Some Day.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I am new to quilting, I enjoy all you lessons
I just love your work I've been following you for a few years and I love this idea I love that Blue Quilt and I have so many blue Fabrics that I'm going to try this with thank you so much for posting these delicious videos!
Wonderful technique! Much superior to attaching strips of sashing to long rows of blocks. Thank you:)
I've just watched your tutorial and am ancious to apply your technique. I am not a new quilter, however really appreciate your sharing. My next scrappy quilt with sashing and corner blocks will go together much more efficiently.
I have a quilt that I started years ago at out church then my husband received orders to another base. I have been left with the squares for almost 6 years, not knowing how to assemble them. This video has taught me so much and I will finally be able to finish my sons quilt.
You make it look easy...and it is...once you've shown us how it's done. Great!!! Thank you so much.
Your very good at teaching us. I love this idea you've shown us. Thank you so much for showing me this sashing and blocks
great teaching
I'm doing my first quilt with a sashing. You are a great instructor.
Oh great, those nieces will be so pleased! Even if you don't want different coloured posts, it still helps to use the posts in the same fabric, keeps everything lined up!
Hello, thanks for watching. How delicious to be making some new fabrics into a quilt!
