    Nancy shows how to cut 2 inch strips for the Rail Fence quilt using Omnigrid glow tape on her ruler. She takes the strips to her sewing machine to sew a scant quarter inch seam allowance using a seam guide. Then she sets the seam with the iron, opens the strips up and irons them flat. Take your time with pressing so your quilt will be as close to the accurate size as possible. Follow Nancy as she continues to put the strips together and cuts segments to create blocks for the quilt. She shares tips and hints on how to piece the segments together. Look for the bonus tutorial where Nancy shows how to make a Wonky Rail Fence followed by the next video about the Mitered Rail Fence!

    Taking notes...I made a fence rail for my hubby with flannels/wovens had no clue about making "blocks" had long lines of squares in my living room floor and somehow made a quilt. Hand stitched it using Pearl 8 thread after we stitched the two anchoring lines on my sewing machine. It did come together but it was TOTAL COWBOY!!! My husband pulled out a 4 ft steel framing level to cut the strips at 2.5.
    Now a group of women who have never sat at a sewing machine in their entire life are coming together to make 2 quilts for long-serving scout leaders. I will have lessons based around these techniques before we begin the quilt proper. Thank You Nancy! I can't let these poor women get trained in bad habits!

    Thank you, Nancy. The rail fence was one of the first quilts I made. Wish I'd paid more attention to the pressing. But I REALLY want to thank you for the series of videos you did regarding the Lone Star. These were posted in February of this year. Without those vids, I never could have finished that quilt. It got pretty confusing at times but you cleared the way to understand how it went together. Your way of matching those pesky seams was bang on. A tad time consuming but the outcome was perfection! Sincerely, Nancy, I thank you from the bottom of my heart!! Just proves you CAN teach an old dog new tricks (70 years)!

    You are one of my most favorite CZcams sewist! Love your videos and tips. This fabric is adorable but I may be prejudiced since I have a new grandbaby - my first! I also believe that pressing is so important. People in my quilt group think I'm obsessive but I have some of the best seams there!! Keep the videos coming. They are wonderful. Thanks for all you do.

    Seam separating! You just rocked my world. Plus I am lusting after your iron. Question. When using a jelly roll is my scant 1/4 inch measured from the point of the pinking cuts or the bottoms?

    • @QuiltingWithNancy
      @QuiltingWithNancy  Před 4 lety +1

      That's a good question Janet because jelly rolls are not really cut for accuracy - i love them but you do need to use fudge factory when you are using them. i would say use a scant 1/4" from the outside of the points is a good general rule,

  • @Mickey-jn8hz
    @Mickey-jn8hz Před rokem

    Very interested but if you cut 2 stitches in the middle so your block lies flat, is there not a danger of those stitches coming apart during washing. I am very interested in trying out such a quilt and am amazed at the pressing of the rows so they form like a circle but the center part thing where you remove stitches, that is not clear in my mind. Love they way you teach, thank you.

    • @QuiltingWithNancy

    Nancy, I'm new to quilting so I've been power watching all your videos. Thanks for all your videos and I love that you keep repeating what to do, it sure helps me remember. I hope to make your rail fence quilt. Do you know how many jelly rolls it takes to make a queen or king sized quilt? By the way, I'm in Cadillac. So not far from you.

    • @QuiltingWithNancy
      @QuiltingWithNancy  Před 5 lety

      Hi Dalene - I finally have had time to do the math!! for a queen quilt, approximately 90x100 inches, you would need 156 8"x8" blocks, that are made with 4 strips. You could get 5 blocks out of each strip set of four so you would need 128 strips! - good math :) so - I don't know how many rolls that is because rolls have difference number of strips in each, but if you get 128 strips you are good to go :) Does Cadillac have a quilt guild?

    • @QuiltingWithNancy
      @QuiltingWithNancy  Před 5 lety

      Hi Cheryl, i have seen it and understand how it works but for me :) - that is just too harsh on my fabrics. I tell students to treat their fabric like it is rice paper. Using spray sizing and/or a steam item i am able to get the fabrics to do everything i need them today without "beating" them into submission. But if it works for you, go for it :)

  • @darlenefarmer5921
    @darlenefarmer5921 Před 5 lety

    Great tutorial...why did you do a scant 1/4" instead of a straight 1/4" seam? Thanks so much.

    • @QuiltingWithNancy
      @QuiltingWithNancy  Před 5 lety +1

      Hi Darlene :) for the quilt blocks to come our the correct size you need to work with a seam allowance that is just a "scant" less then a true quarter inch - that is about a needle/thread width difference. It is to give the fabric room to press over the thread. Little things like that and using a cotton thread that is a 50 weight thread will make all your blocks, no matter the design, turn out to the size they should be :) Check out one of the first videos I did, i think it will help explain
