Cats are wonderful. What would we do without them. Never complain about the kitty show pics of him
I’m so glad to hear that I’m not the only one who’s brain wants to plan, organize and control random scrappiness.😂
As a beginner quilter- I love watching how you make your quilts I learn so much. Might have to put that ruler on my Christmas list. Beautiful quilt! Thanks for taking us along😊
I can’t believe you laid out the quilt on the floor and didn’t have a cat sitting in the center of it. It looks great!
Your fingernail polish coordinates with your fabric. What fun!
The Stripology ruler is a great tool for quilting. Cutting definitely goes faster. I don’t have the exact Stripology ruler, I have had a strip cutting ruler by June Taylor for many years. It works in the same way, it’s just not as heavy acrylic or quite as big , it is helpful though. Your quilt is so cute! Very bright and summery. I agree sewing randomly is hard.
I love my Stripology ruler too. I did the same thing, stared at it for about 10 minutes before I had the nerve to cut!😊
I love my Stripology ruler! I hang mine on a hook on my pegboard. You might be happy to know that the space from 20" to the edge is actually 1" so you can cut two 10-1/2" pieces. Lol I typed that too fast because you just discovered that in your video. 🙂🙃🙂 Recently I cut 2-1/2" strips, picked up Stripology ruler without moving strips, carefully rotated my cutting mat one turn, put S ruler back on strips, and cut 2-1/2" strips again. This got me a bunch of 2-1/2" squares!
Your quilt turned out very cute! Oh and I love Fat Quarter Shop's daily Flash Sale too! (maybe too much)
i store my Stripology ruler flat. I can't imagine it staying in shape is you stood it up.
That is the sweetest little quilt. I just love it
I love my anthropology ruler.
I love the sewing vlogs! Keep ‘em coming!
Thank you! Will do!
Love your fabric choices! I always love a scrappy low volume background. For me there always has to be a little planning even when doing “random” designing. I have a smaller version of the Stripology ruler - it kind of intimidates me too. I need to use it more and get comfortable with it. Such a cute, fun quilt, Liz!
Thank you! I’m so so happy with how the backgrounds turned out, I’m for sure doing more of that!
I so enjoyed watching your video today! I always wanted to quilt, but only took the time to take a class and make one. I do mostly cross stitch, but loved watching you do the quilt! You are so good at explaining and doing quality work!❤️ Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
I love this quilt and am making it with Ruby Star’s Flowerland! Thank you for doing this vlog!❤
Oh fun!! I want to make another one!!
I’ve been really enjoying your videos, you inspire me much, I love you dearly!!!!! 💚
I remember the issue with the jelly roll quilt when the fabric wasn't cut the right length. I laughed when you brought it up.
It is a core memory now, I will never trust another jelly roll 😂
@@elizabethanncanstitch Lol.
I love my stripology ruler! 💙
This was so fun. thanks for doing it. I loved when you thought you had not off-set your rows. I was really into it. I caught myself saying out loud: "Flip it Liz, just flip it!" It was so much like almost everything I do when I'm sewing and tired.
I really laughed at myself while editing that part, like duh flip it around 😂
SWEET...now I don't have to read the directions ROFLOL...I am resisting the temptation to buy that ruler before I start. No No No, I don't need it. Girl!!! Your colors and fabrics are adorable! I will also be using a scrappy background, but all my colors are primitive aka polar opposite of yours LOL. Cannot wait to start this on Saturday well, maybe Friday night!! Hugs from NE Ohio.
It looks sooooo good!!!!
Thank youuu!
Beautiful quilt. Love the fabric I just love watching your videos. You always give me all kinds of fun ideas. Thank you for sharing.🙂
Thank you so much!
Hi Liz, Watch the video that Gudrun puts out on the ruler. Accessible by scanning the code on the packaging. You can line up your strips using the lines on your mat to keep them straight and cut through several strips at a time without layering your strips. I use the stripology ruler for sub cuts all the time. We have a few members of our guild that are GE Designs groupies and they make all of her quilts with the ruler(s) including the subcuts. Thanks for the video.
Good to know! I will definitely watch more videos and figure it out! It really does make cutting quicker
Love my Stripology ruler. I hang mine on pegboard to keep it flat.
LOVE 💗 your sewing videos. Hope your MoJo comes back!!😂😂😂
I love how you explain your sewing projects! Your fabric choices are sooo lovely and pretty!
Thank you so much!
I ❤ the fabrics! It’s going to be such a cheery and happy quilt! Thank you for sharing (I drive myself crazy when piecing) so I am going to try your method of placing the strips in a bag and shake it! That is genius!!!
Right? I am the worst at actually doing something randomly!
Nope, you are smart! I sit there and waste hours of sewing time playing with the pieces and trying to figure it out rather than just doing it! Keep these coming Elizabeth!
That came out so cute! I wrestle with random scrappy myself at times. You did an awesome job!😊
Thank you! 😊
So fun!! I am going to start quilting one day and I learn so much from your videos!! Very cute fabric!! 🩷🌞
We bought a battery powered booster that we keep in the car. Always ready to give our car a boost. No more booster cables.
yes, i need to get one of those!!
Thank you for this….Christmas quilt a coming!!! 🌻🌻🌻
Not a sewer, however, what an amazing quilt!😊
It will be a great quilt
Yay for you! It's fun to feel success and get hobby mojo back. :) What a pretty quilt top. :)
Thank you! 😊
I love your wall hangings! I've got a couple of the fat quarter shop patterns on backlog to sew. And, just so you know, you've inspired me to make time for my sewing as well as my cross stitch, so thank you for that! I'm loving the jellyroll quilt, so that may be on the plate soon as well!
Oh awesome, thank you!
I’ve started sewing my strips and am loving it! I also used a stripology ruler and it’s genius. I’ll show you a pic once I get a few of the rows sewn together! I’m going to have a hard time giving this away. Might have to make another one for myself!
Oh yay!! Yes can’t wait to see!
Good for you getting the quilting done. Lately I have been going with the quick and easy quilting. I have so many other projects other than quilting I want to do like cross stitch. My aim this year is this year was to use my stash even the ones I didn’t even want to cut lol. I love the mixed backgrounds.
I like quick and easy quilting too that's why I do mine with a card instead of my machine these days. It's so nice to send off the top, backing and even binding if I'm in a rush and a few weeks later it's back and complete ready to wash and gift. Except for my minky backed ones, I do those.
@@Kera.S. I have about six or five finished tops that need to be done. I heard ya. I’m too cheap lol.
As a beginner quilter I learn so much from you. Thanks for filming them.
You are looking so good
Lovely quilt! I store my ruler between two of my Kallax Ikea units so it’s flat.. but not on the floor. I know how you feel about being overwhelmed. I have come up with a radical solution….I am expanding my craft room! Yup. Knocking down a wall! Of course this will mean total organisation and precision for ever more in the new room. Won’t it?…!?😅
That sounds awesome! I wish I had another room to expand into!
I love this quilt! It is a fun quilt
My battery recently died too. Spent two hours in the store parking lot waiting for a start while my ice cream melted. Thanks for sharing
The worst!
Love the quilty content!
Love these vlogs
The Strip-ology ruler is a game changer and I enjoy your vlogs!
When you examine the randomness of the Universe you find that it is not random at all.
It appears you have your sewing mojo back! 🎉🎉🎉
That’s a cute quilt. I do planned scrappy also bc I don’t want two of the same to touch,
Love your vlogs Liz. I bet they are a ton of work but such fun and so appreciated ❤
Thank you so much!
I love the stripology ruler!
I’ve bought so many rulers and that’s the one I use most of the time. If you don’t store it flat somewhere one of the slits will break. I used it a little while and just used the other side but then it was too flimsy so I bought another one:)
The jelly roll that you picked is so pretty, and your quilt top is beautiful! . I really enjoy your vlogs. Thank you so much for sharing.
I have the Stripology ruler and hang it and that’s pretty much where it stays. I prefer my Quilters Select rulers.
This quilt is so fun, I might have to make one myself . . .
Thank you so much for this. I have now bought the pattern and looking forward to getting this one started!
That’s so thoughtful of you Shelia, Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
I’ve just started using the stripology ruler and yes I store it flat. I normally leave it on my cutting table. 🤷♀️
That’s exactly how I feel about my sewing room. Too much stuff and I’m claustrophobic. Lol
Great video!!! I’ve been eyeing the strip-ology ruler but had never watched anyone using it before, so thanks for sharing you using it for the first time! Thank you for keeping your videos real!! Super cute quilt, it is on my list to be made!!😍~ Cathy
You are so welcome!
I'm such a messy maker & it drives me crazy 🤪 I wish I could be a clean as I go person and I try to have a place for everything but I always seem to have to clean before I can do anything. Glad I'm not the only one, except yours isn't nearly as bad as mine gets lol❤ btw I have my sewing machine on my kitchen table and I have a big sewing room. Crazy but I hate going upstairs and prefer my stuff downstairs so have just what I have to have in a cart with it. It's amazing how little I actually NEED to make things.
Oh i totally get it! I have a mini craft room in my living room for my current wips that I can work on from the couch!
@@elizabethanncanstitch yes! Exactly, thank you ❣️💙
I was sitting there saying to myself…is that little pretzels on that fabric! I love it!
yes! Love those little pretzels, I went to buy more and its sold out! But so cute!
That looks great!!
Thank you!!
Nice quilt top. Time for you to start collecting neutrals lol.
I really enjoyed watching your process, including thinking out loud. I do that to myself while I'm working on a project. And we all have to start with a clean place to create, even if it takes time to put the previous materials away. That quilt looks like a great scrapbuster, so I may have to give it a go. Thanks so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to make interesting content. Much appreciated, both quilting and cross stitch.
Awesome! Thank you!
Great video Elizabeth!! I enjoy seeing you sew projects together so I can go back over them again to follow along and make the project. Appreciate you taking all of your time to do them. Hugs
Thank you so much!
Great day in your sewing room! I enjoyed seeing your quilt come together and seeing the stripology ruler in action. Be Well
Thank you! You too!
I always love watching your piecing/sewing. It turned out beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Such a cute quilt!😊
Great vlog can’t wait to see the finish have a wonderful day 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
Wow! Quilt looks really nice!!
I was so surprised to see you using the stripology ruler for the first time. You are so far ahead of me in quilting (I’ve only made one quilt), but my fabric shop advisor really pushed me to buy one, so I had used it before. It is SO great! I used mine to cut the binding for my quilt. And although I’m a complete beginner, it came out great. Every quilter should get one at least to cut bindings!🎉🎉
I only owned two rulers until a few years ago 😂 I just did everything the hard way I guess, but yeah I love this big giant stripology ruler!!
@@elizabethanncanstitch Thanks so much for your channel. You are the best! (say um all you want, you’re charming and others are picky). I’m trying to make a lined project bag from your tutorial. Taking it slowly on a prototype with stash fabric and saving the pretty fabric for later. You spread joy!
You're the best! Love how you keep it real❤
Really enjoy your vlogs and listening to your thought processes. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Always enjoy your sewing videos, you inspire my sewing mojo, Thank you!
Yay, thank you!
Just picked a jelly roll from my stash, purchased the pattern, and am prepping to do this! Thanks!!
Hope you enjoy it! 💖
I have 2 stripology rulers and store them upright and have had no problems. What you do have to be careful about is picking up the bigger one...I busted mine by picking up by the corner and the weight of it was too much.
Hi Liz...so nice of you to come on with a quilt I was interested in...thanks for giving tips as you go and why you made them...this is a beautiful quilt with the fabrics you used...best wishes abd happy stitching ❤❤
I love love love my stripology ruler. I use it for everything I need a bunch of strips or squares for a quilt. It makes it so easy. I also store it flat on top of a set of alex drawers.
oooh perfect! I have a set of alex drawers under my cutting table, I can def store mine there too! Thanks!!
Sew cute! Awesome scrappy quilt! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! 😊
Getting one of those rulers!!! It’s such a fun quilt! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!!
Loved your vlog!! Loved your choice of fabrics.
We had car battery issues this last week also, my dad and father in law both said it is the extreme heat we are having in Texas so it isn't unusual at all. The more ya know! Always love a cleaning montage so definitely leave that in always 😄
oh interesting! I was asking my dad about it and he was like well how old is your car (6 years) and how many times have you replaced the battery (0) so he was like you're probably due for a new one 😂 Luckily Rob knew how to change it
I work from home for the last three years and because I don’t get out often, my battery was constantly not starting. Someone suggested that I get a solar trickle charger that sits on my dashboard and plugs into the cigarette lighter. It starts for me every time now. (Knocking on wood now, lol)
I LOVE the GE Stripology XL ruler and absolutely LOVE it. I also have the mini and the 'sqared' one too. I have the newest one on order and it should be here any day.
The little ones are so cute! I was eyeing the mini block squarer one
Oh, man! Now I have to go out and buy the ruler!😂
I think I need one of those rulers!
Great Job! I love the fabrics. I too have trouble with random scrappy so I get it. It just takes one quick and easy project to get you going again. Having fun is the main thing. I sympathize on the battery replacement after having had this same issue a few weeks ago. I was surprised at how expensive they are now. I'd rather buy fabric!
ugh I know I think my battery was like 180? I think the last time I had to buy a battery it was under 100... 😂
I kept saying stack them & use the longer ruler. 😃
Oh man this maybe my first quilt project. I feel like I could handle this lol
This is a great beginner pattern for sure!!
That cutting ruler is worth any price!
Come on Liz you can do it keep ironing Lol🤣 It looks like a great pattern to use with novelty prints. I make I Spy Boy Novelty Charm packs for my Etsy shop. Thanks for the inspiration!!
I did it! I powered through and now the quilt top is done! woo hoo
@@elizabethanncanstitch That is great!!
Same in my sewimg room any time i want to do something in there ! Real life!
right?? Sigh, I guess thats just the first step to all my quilt projects 😂
I made the Santa quilt as well, my second ever quilt. Not perfect but I’m learning. Too embarrassed to send it for quilting🤦🏽♀️
Cute, cute quilt. I was hoping to see how you sewed the rows together and got all those corners to match! That's what I have trouble with. Am wondering if I should be using a walking foot? I have an old singer machine. It doesn't seem to pull both layers equally...
I didn't sew the rows together until a few days later which is why I didn't include it in this video! But what I did was just pin about every 4th intersection or so (I didn't pin each one) and then just adjusted as I went, I found they matched up really well without me having to do much work!
💜☮️
❤❤❤
👍❤️👏👏👏👏
I call it planned random; can’t do random because if it was two of exact same could be four times in a row. 😮
Exactly!
Thanks for the inspiration. The quilt looks great! I have the same scrappy 'rule' ... no touching colors! 😅 What Juki model do you use? It appears that it has some specialty stitches. Do you love it?
Right? Scrappy but not completely random! I use a DX7 and I do love it! I sometimes wish I had the straight stitch version because it’s faster and more powerful but I use the zigzag and specialty stitches often enough to want that on my everyday machine
@@elizabethanncanstitch Thanks Liz. I've been using the same machine for 45 (!) years and am considering a new purchase. I see so many quilters using the Juki straight stitch machine but I need those specialty stitches from time to time.
Store it flat! It’ll bend otherwise. Ask me how I know
😂😂 ok good to know!! I’ll find somewhere flat for it!
"PromoSM" 😩
Ok, you win the award for perseverance ! I would have quit a long time ago. Bet you’re a Program Manager at work🥷🏻
