Sewing Made Easy: Look What You Can Do with Partial Seams & Fat Quarters!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 июл 2024
- Don't you love FREE! And fat quarters! So add a free pattern to a bundle of fat quarters and what do you get? A beautiful quilt. This free fat quarter pattern is for a beginner or a super experienced quilter. Get out that fat quarter bundle and get ready to cut up those pieces of fabric to make something warm and cuddly. This free fat quarter pattern is from FIGO. Don't be afraid to open that gorgeous bundle of fat quarters because we're going to make something awesome.
Now a bonus to this free fat quartern pattern is we get to demystify partial seams. I am going to take the scary out of constructing blocks with a partial seam.
My fat quarter bundle came from my favorite quilt shop in Florida - Cut Up and Sew: www.cutupandsew.com/

from Gerry- I just copied the same type of quilt as this only it had a rail fence instead of a single rectangle. Yours is less sewing so that is the one that I will make. Thanks so much for sharing. Your quilt is beautiful. Be blessed.
Wonderful! Sounds great Gerry!
I don't like partial seams, but you did make it look easy
Thank you!
Thanks for watching my channel!

Thank you so much!

I wish I could cut fabric with either hand! Life would be so much easier
YES!
Good afternoon there April, Oh how i smiled when seeing that big spotty white fabric, because when i was 14 in 1980 i seen a bright white background multi coloured polka dot that i just loved and we made it in to a rock n' roll skirt for my high school disco. There was me, i thought that there was no one like me, that was until i sat on a rotten plastic chair that ripped an L shape into my beautiful skirt, and i was heartbroken. The skirt then underwent a few cosmetic changes with the addition of a poodle on a lead applicated on to it, so it went back to being wonderful again and no one had a skirt like me. The fact that no one wanted a skirt or anything else that i wore like me goes for absolutely nothing, lol. I just loved the swirly dresses from a time a wee while before i was born, the girls / ladies just looked so pretty in them, and Mum still had her patterns from that period. THere was definitely no one that had such beautiful dresses and i got all the various styles that just weren't around anymore. Thank you April for bringing back one happy memory with your very different fabric and your boxes quilt. Have a lovely day flower and hugs coming across that big pond from Norah, Glenochil, Scotland
Isn’t it so cool how just a little something can bring back wonderful memories. I am so glad that something I did brought back that memory. And what made it even better was you sharing your memory. Have a great day and thank you. 😀
April
April, this is adorable. What a FUN kid quilt. I love the stripes and dots. It is so cute. Thank you for sharing this with us. You explain and demonstrate very well. Have a blessed day.😊🎉💖🍀

FYI - FIGO fabric is often used by Quilt Addicts Anonymous. Love the quilts she makes with it.
I love that!
Very well instructions. Love it ❤
I just love it yet again you're awesome ❤.
Thank you so much 😀
I have avoided partial seam quilts because of my fear. You have given me confidence to try this quilt. I love your channel and your teaching style.
Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching my channel!
I love this pattern and thank you for sharing. I have a bunch of fat quarters just waiting for me to find a great pattern. Now I have. Love, love, love your videos. God bless you. ❤
Thank you and thanks for watching my channel ❤️ April
Love this pattern and no ….partial seams aren’t hard at all. They are fun and make you feel accomplished!! ❤
I agree!
Thanks for watching my channel!
You make this look sooo easy…typically I hear “partial seam” and I take off in the opposite direction. 😩😝 I guess I’ll have to try now. 🤞🤞😜 Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend Miss April. 🤗🤗
They are easier than you might think. I got a free pattern from Fabric Patch and used it to make an autumn table runner in 2022. Super easy! I am going to get this pattern too.
Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching my channel!
I agree! Thank you for sharing this!
Love the fat quarters blocks ! And love your shirt ! You made the partial seam look easy❤
Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching my channel!
That’s a very beautiful quilt, it took hard work. Good job!
Thank you! 😊
Love the pattern you made the partial seam look so easy

Another great idea using fat quarters. You are so lucky to be able to be able to rotary cut with both hands. Wonderful instructions on cutting fabrics.....
Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching my channel!
Good choice on pattern.❤🙏😉🐾
Glad you think so!
Love me some dark chocolate ❤
Me too!
What a great quilt. I love it!. And I have the best fat quarter bundle for this one! Been sitting there for quite awhile waiting to be chosen. Partial seams are not a big deal. Not sure why they scare people. Now curved piecing, that is something to be scared about! Partial seams are just straight seams and you do part now and part later. No big deal! And, by the way, Dove dark chocolate is the best!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching my channel!
I agree with you on the chocolate. My favorite good/bad treat.
LOL
Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching my channel!
cute..... I don;t have any fat quarters but i have yardage so i will give it a ty thank you
Yay! You go girl
LOL...when I first listened it sounded like you said cut the light fabric in 24.5 by 4.5 squares. I thought, "OK, I am POSITIVE I heard that wrong." LOL Sometimes my brain puts things together in ways that are...well...interesting. LOL I learned something about partial seams - thank you for sharing this!!
Perfect! I’m glad it was helpful
I really like this pattern and it is t too complicated for a beginner like me. I’m thinking of doing a Christmas quilt with this pattern. Thanks!

Thanks for doing this video. I have been terrified to try a partial seam. Going to try this pattern!
You can do it!
You explained it well. I’ve been a little weary of partial seams. But I like those fabrics also.😊
😊😊😊

Easy pattern, turned out really neat.
Glad you like it!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching my channel!
This is a larger version of the Bright Hopes Block which I have been making for years. LOVE this size so will be bringing out my FQs to cut them up👍👍😎😎!! Great video🥰🥰. Love that the pattern has cutting diagrams!
Bright Hope is a block in the Fons & Porter classic and that’s where I learned to make partial seams. You’re right, a Bright Hope block bigger than 6 inches is great.
Thank you so much! I will have to check it out too!
Thanks for watching my channel!
Oh my gosh, soooo cute! It just went so fast, printed off the pattern and you were done! Please make a quilt from Patriotic quilt book soon, love your videos and no pets today, feels lonely. Have a great weekend April, till next time
in the works!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching my channel!
I get so excited when your new videos pop up 😊
Well you are the sweetest! Thank you for watching.
April
i like your t shirt you have on. ( the cat sewing )
thanks ... it is my new logo .. lol
Nice quilt. Hope folks learned how to do an inset block. Was winging a quilt pattern I saw online with a block in the quilt middle. Had to think about it a bit and finally figured out about partially seeing one side first. I later learned they call it a inset block. Looking forward to your next fun quilt.
thank you for sharing that ... I love to watch stuff and see how others do it too!
April
Great quilt!!! Thank you for sharing this fun pattern xxx
