Scraptastic Scrap Quilt 2
In this tutorial we move along in our scraptastic quilt journey. We learn how to make a 4 patch using scraps and sew them together. We also learn how to square up our scrappy 4 patch into a 5X5" Square.

I like how she cuts along the sides to make the squares even. I would have never thought of that. it gives me some ideas and tips. thank you. I love sewing scraps they are fun to work with.

I have sooo many charms that I decided to go with them instead of cutting them to 3" squares. This will be the back for a quilt I am making with another group. Like the bag idea to keep it scrappy.

First time seeing your channel!! Great instructions! Very clear & precise. 😊 I’m not a beginner sewer, but never made a quilt. Summer is coming to an end soon, so good project for cold days!❤

I had 3 1/2 inch blocks, I should be able to trim to 5 inch 🤔😬. Thanks 🙏🏽 for your videos ❤️🙏🏽👍🏽

Candy- You should definitely be able to cut it down. 😊

I noticed your 4 patches are completely random which is cool. I have enough squares to use the same fabric in the 4 patch. Not ALL, but a lot. Should I be consistent in scrapiness or does it matter?

@rosepaul9681 3 жыл бұрын

Could you use the cutter on the side of your sewing machine instead of snips? Also, I've seen a standing small cutter that would seem quicker.

@TheCraftyAuthor 3 жыл бұрын

Rose- You could use the side of your machine for a single but I’m not sure it would work the best for cutting chain piecing. The snips would be much easier for that. As for the standing thread cutter, that would be perfect and will cut much faster. 😊

Maybe I could make a scrappy quilt from all my baby fabrics !

Hi! I just started watching you and am really enjoying the videos. Your white Gutterman thread had a plasticy thing around it-what is it? I assume it keeps it from unraveling? Thanks

@TheCraftyAuthor 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Darlene- Yes. It is called a spool hugger and it keeps the thread from unraveling. There are also bobbin huggers and they come in a pack. Here is the link to where I purchased mine from. 😊. I really like using them. They help quite a bit. amzn.to/2N7wFWt

I'm a new quilter and I was wondering how do you know what stitch length to use

@jodiradelet6131 3 жыл бұрын

Generally you want to do your piecing at 2.0...shorter. In case you need to cut blocks

@cherylwoodall6292 3 жыл бұрын

Thankyou for helping me

@TheCraftyAuthor 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Cheryl, You typically use a shorter stitch when quilt piecing. The reason for this is for cutting purposes. If you’re working on a block that requires you to make cuts in it, the tighter stitching will keep it from unraveling or coming apart. I learned this lesson the hard way with paper piecing. When quilting, I like my stitch length at 3. You don’t want the stitches so tiny that if you need to seam rip it would be a nightmare. I mean, it’s a nightmare anyway! 🤣 There are different rules of the thought on the lengths you should use, I just prefer 2 for piecing and 3 for quilting. 😊

Anisa is there a secret to nesting cause I seem to suck at it ..I think I have them nested and then open it up and NOPE 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

@jodiradelet6131 3 жыл бұрын

if you press your seams in opposite directions...one to the left, the other to the right....when you put right sides together slide the seams together....they should "lock"...you can feel it with your fingers....i pin on either side of the seam....then sew.....it does take practice.....I'm just catching on now....with my scrap fabric I made 4 patches just to practice.......still making them. lol. will make a quilt....with them....hope this helps. :)

@TheCraftyAuthor 3 жыл бұрын

Karen- Jodi is correct. You want the seams in opposite directions and they do lock. There’s no magic, unfortunately. Just lots and lots of practice. Also, I recommend pinning or using quilt clips to hold it in place. Sometimes it can move while sewing. 😊

Spin your seams. You tube videos available. Decreases bulk and all will nest
