I love the generous fabric in fqs kits. I always try to be conservative cutting but stuff happens....😊

I have always loved the tree of life block, no matter the color.

Thank you Kimberly for the detailed instructions. Hope you are having a fun vacation.

Love the dark and light blocks. Kimberly, I love cutting the outer blocks bigger to cut down. Too bad I didn't learn that decades ago. I always used coping to get my blocks exact.

I got this but haven't started it yet. I'm a beginner so its sitting on my shelf in its pretty box intimidating me.

Well get out your 1/2 square paper and material and get started! The only way to learn is by repetition! You’re going to do better than you think!!!

Get it starched & ironed. Then cut the first block. Do it a day at a time.

When I first started quilting I wanted to make this block but it was way over my head. After 30 years I finally tried it. I love this block. Triangles on a roll will make it foolproof! I really like how Kimberly made the truck portion; I had used a template. Give it a try, I bet you will do a beautiful job❤

The key to success when you’re a beginner is to really take your time and don’t rush. Double check that you have an accurate quarter inch seam allowance. You can do it!

I did my both blocks together. I’m done!! Next week I’ll start sewing the rows and backing:)

Don't worry Kimberly, our sons are 36 and 34 years old, and married, and we still take a family vacation every year! It doesn't have to end!

I am really enjoying these step by step tutorials!!🎉

@loriar1027 4 күн бұрын

I used to not pin much at all when I piece my quilts,but I have discovered that it really does make a difference. I think the movement of the fabric over the feed dogs and the pressure of the presser foot can cause the fabric to shift a bit while you’re sewing. So it really does help with accuracy. I also tend to stitch with the seam side up when I’m sewing on a border bc it helps me to keep my seam allowances laying the right way.

Your blocks look amazing! I must admit that I haven’t started mine yet but will soon since our garden is about done. I love how this is turning out.

Thanks for this tutorial. You took the intimidation factor out of this block for me.

@michellecobb3530 4 күн бұрын

I like cutting a none pieced long strip too long too. Less stress cause the seam bumps do change things.

Is there enough fabric to size up and trim on half square triangles?

Hello Rita! Yes, there is enough fabric to size up.

I have a question and feel embarrassed to ask. When you purchase the kit, does that help with donations?

@FatQuarterShopTX 4 күн бұрын

Hello Krishna! It's okay don't be embarrassed. When you purchase the kit it does not go towards donations. The donations are only available through Make-A-Wish.

@krisharivas4238 Күн бұрын

@@FatQuarterShopTX - thank you so much. Sorry I misunderstood this and will be making donation.

@sharonbrown2468 3 күн бұрын

To get 44 HST’s wouldn’t you need just 11 of those paper rectangles? Doesn’t each rectangle make 4 HST’s? This is so confusing!

@JaninaCarlona 2 күн бұрын

I am a brand new quilter, and I notice you press your seams open. All the other videos I have watched press to one side. Is this just your personal preference?

@FatQuarterShopTX Күн бұрын

Hello Janina! Kimberly presses depending on how she feels but most of the time she presses open.
