    Your quilts are breath-takingly beautiful. Congrats! 😊The masking tape is great & I get it but how do you do those perfect CURVES at equal distance from each other? Thx for this great video! Wishing you all the best!

    I loved this. I like Tsukineko fabric inks to shade on fabric and for details. Posco pens are good as is Pitt pigment pens for very fine details. All are made for fabric, light fast and permanent. I have Dyna flo sampler, I haven’t used them yet. But now will give it a go! Thanks

    The only wrong way to quilt is to not quilt at all. If your method works for you and you are happy with the results, then it is the right way.

  • @lesley523
    @lesley523 Месяц назад

    Ir you wrap the thread over the needle you won't have to use 2 movements to make the stitch

  • @lesley523
    @lesley523 Месяц назад

    Iron your applique piece to the shiny side of freezer paper, then baste it a little...great sharp edges.

    Hi Brent, I'm a longterm, 30 yr, hand quilter! Also a painter. Have a border to finish & I'm going to try it without a hoop! Have you tried freezer paper applique before making the quilt sandwich? Want to ask what kind of binding do you do? And what are you recording with? Love the artistic style... 😊

    Brent, I really loved your video. Your explanation of the quilting stitch was so easy to understand. Seeing how you stitch without a hoop is great. I’ve been working on a Christmas quilt that I made long ago. I’ve come to the edges where I can’t use a hoop. I’m going to try your method. Thanks for your video and I’ll be watching for more .

    My quilts are entirely hand pieced, and hand quilted. They are my own designs, and are not for sale! I have told people: I will teach you how to make a quilt, but I will not make one for you (same goes for my historically inspired hand stitched clothing). Most people have no idea how much time is involved.

    Love your work and the process is interesting… I do lots of EPP and save tons of time and irritation by threading multiple needles at once. Also, shorter thread is actually smoother to use, and makes the process more liquid. And ergonomic

  • @deb.m.7458
    @deb.m.7458 2 месяца назад

    Brent, how clever and efficient! Usually, there’s lots of pattern pieces involved. I like that your method is one piece of fabric. Love those welt pockets. You are a very talented artist.

    Brent you should paint your basement walls in an artsy style. Collect others left over paints and do some peace signs and 70's flowers 😊 it won't be creepy anymore 🤗 LOVE THIS QUILT❤

    @deborahnolan9360 2 месяца назад

    Thank you, Brent. I just finished quilting a king-size quilt on a frame. I have two more to do and am interested in doing at least one without a frame. Your quilting stitches were quite clear, but my question is, HOW do you lay out your layers and BASTE your quilt? I will soon be 70 with a bad back, so the floor is not an option. Thanks in advance for your reply.

  • @stonecrestquilt

    I use a wet toothpick to fold the fabric over. I learned that technique about 30 years ago from Becky Goldstein. I think her name is of piece of cake quilts. When you use the wet toothpick, the fabric just folds right under.

  • @stonecrestquilt
    @stonecrestquilt 2 месяца назад

    Brent! You deserve millions of subscribers the way you work is truly refreshing outside the box. Use your noggin and stay off Pinterest kind of thing. I love what you do. I appreciate the tips too how you mark your quilt for hand quilting. Long arm quilt, but I got tired of doing it and started hand quilting. But I hate having to follow a template and follow someone else’s design yada yada yada. Thank you so much for watering my seed!

  • @stonecrestquilt
    @stonecrestquilt 2 месяца назад

    I can’t draw, but I do have an old projector that works perfectly! I think I might just start with basic organic shapes. And hand quilt that first. And then the next one be a little more complex but not much lol

  • @stonecrestquilt
    @stonecrestquilt 2 месяца назад

    I left quilting after about 30 years honestly because I had made every single pattern there was to make and every fabric line there was at the time. Watching you work ads a much needed seed that I thought I had run out of. Thank you for showing me how you work it’s fascinating.

    People give thousands of dollars for a canvas painting that looks like a someone spilled their paints on it. A quilt is the same art just different material and many more hours spent...

  • @katechiconi

    It's why I never sell a quilt. They're all made for someone particular, and I put what I know about that person into the design, the colour choices, etc. I'll never make something generic enough to go to just *anybody*. Besides, if it's all about the money, it take the joy out of the process, puts pressure on me to complete it as quickly as possible, and would mean I'd never make another hand-quilted hexie quilt.

    I get that this is not a new video but it is so good. I’m not really an artist and I’m fairly new to quilting but I have in my head to make an art quilt. I’ve been taking classes in drawing and watercolor but still I’ve been at a loss as to where to start. I gotta tell you that over the past 4-5 months I’ve watched literally hundreds of tutorials on every topic included in the whole art quilting process. Today I found yours and I find myself almost giddy with seeing your process. I’ve watched 3 of your videos this morning and I have a crazy busy day! I’ll turn the tv off for now but I plan to come back and watch all of your videos. I’m so excited to have found your channel. I’ll be sure to let you know once I bite the bullet and actually start my own handmade art quilt. Thank you for sharing your process. My name is Renee and you’ll hear from me again I’m sure. Btw, I grew up in New Orleans, near the Gulf and have scuba dived forever so I can appreciate the realism of your work. I’m interested in doing people though but I’ll be trying out your processes. Thank again.

  • @kathylibby3676
    @kathylibby3676 3 месяца назад

    I'd rather gift a fabulous quilt worth thousands than to sell it. But I've learned to cautiously give. Just a few people know the work and passion that goes into my quilts. I saw a photo of the quilt masterpiece that I had gifted, showing the quilt sitting in the bright sunlight with a cat sitting on it. I told the recipient that while I'm above ground, please give my quilt meticulous care. But this person had an interesting perspective: should I put the quilt into a box in the closet for 50 years, never to truly enjoy it, or might I take it out and actually use it? She had a point! There must be some compromise.

    People ask me if i can make them a quilt. In tell them find a pattern they like, and i will let them know if its something i can make. I also tell them, after you find the pattern, you order the fabric, thread, and batting. Then I'll make it for x amount of $$'s. They change their mind after they price the materials.
