This is so beautiful. WOW !!!
I just received my 2 kits and am so beyond happy. These fabrics are so beautiful. I cannot wait to get started. I have one thing I am doing now and it should be done by this week-end. Everything came wrapped up and the box was not even bent this time. I thank you, Shabby Fabrics , for giving us instructions and videos to do these projects that are so very beautiful.
We are excited for you! Happy that you enjoy our tutorials and projects! Thank you for your support and comment! - Abby
Gorgeous quilt. Your tips are extra helpful.
This quilt is so beautiful! Happy we can help! Thank you for your support and comment!😊 - Abby
Thank you for the hard work you and your team put in to this, but I can’t help thinking about what a cool - and easy! - color wash English paper piecing hexagon quilt this fabric would make.
We are glad we inspire you! Thank you for your support and comment😊 - Abby
This quilt is stunning!
Happy that you love it! Thank you for your comment!😊 - Abby
It's gorgeous I can't stop looking at it ❤❤❤❤
So glad you enjoy it! We just love the vibrant designs in the Wild Blossoms fabrics! -Michelle
I think I will do this as a table runner. Before I do a quilt. Great tutorial I love your tips.
Sounds great! Thank you for you support and comment!😊 - Abby
Too beautiful to pass up. I just ordered my kit. I’ve always wanted to do one of these and you tutorial is so easy to understand, I feel confident that I will be able to do it.
We are happy that you love our tutorials and continuing with your quilt journey! Thank you for your support and comment!😊 - Abby
I love seeing your projects. This is one of my favorite techniques and you even used our CGR Rulers:)! Thankyou for the lovely inspiration.
Happy that you love our projects! The CGR rulers are great! (: Thank you for the support and comment! - Abby
Hi Jen, Beautiful quilt. You did a fantastic job teaching.
Glad that you liked the tutorial! Thank you for your support and comment!😊 - Abby
ok Jen and Michelle, I just ordered 2 kits. I am so excited to get these kits. I ordered 2, just in case I mess the first one up...LOL
Awesome! That is smart and we are excited for you too! Thanks for the support and comment!😊 - Abby
A beautiful quilt. I love it ❤
We love it too! Thank you for your comment!❤️😊 - Abby
I received my kit and had to start it right away. 😊. Today I ironed the fabric, cut, marked, and pinned it. I have always wanted to do a kaleidoscope quilt but was intimidated. Your instructions made it so easy. However, I did have to figure out about the pinning. Where to start, how far apart…A couple of starts and stops and 3 bandaids later, I figured it out. What worked best for me was starting in the middle working on the short side and working my way down, then doing the other half the same way. Seemed less cumbersome to me that way. Next will be cutting the strips and triangles. Thank you for such good explanations and guidance. Love your videos.
Happy that our tutorial helped you with this project and that you also found what worked best for you! Keep it up! It will look fantastic! Thank you for your comment!😊 - Abby
Gorgeous quilt.
We're so glad you enjoy it! -Michelle
Jen,fabulous demo! I can't wait to recive my kit!!
We’re so glad this fun tutorial inspires you! We’ll keep an eye out for your project photos 😍🥰 -Michelle
Amazing quilt.
We agree too! Thank you for the support and comment!😊 - Abby
Very pretty
Happy that you like this pattern! Thank you for your comment!😊 - Abby
This fabric is gorgeous! When I'm lining up kaleidoscope fabrics I don't rock the pin to hold all the layers. I feel that shifts the fabrics slightly. I hold the "line up" pin straight up and down through all the layers and insert a second pin to hold the layers together & remove the "line up" pin.
We agree too! This is good advice, happy that it works for you! Thank you for your support and comment!😊 - Abby
Great informative tutorial thank you. I’ve made a one block wonder and the stack and wack seems to be the same method?
Happy you like the tutorial! Yes it is the same method just worded different. Thank you for your support and comment!😊 - Abby
I’m guessing the kit is sold out. If you have a waiting list put me on it. I love this❤
Hi dypick - You can shop this kit here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/p158768/ We'll be sure to keep an eye out for your project photos!! -Michelle
Thank you. I found it this time.
I have already purchased this fabric but didn't know what to do with it. Can I buy the written pattern separately?
Hi Robin! We're so glad this project inspires you :) We do have this pattern available here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/p158909 -Michelle
I think something went wrong. The light yellow was sewn wrong. It should have been sewn to the top not the bottom. If you do your quilt this way it’s going to be all messed up. I would hat for someone who buys the kit to make it this way. They will be so disappointed when 1/2 of their quilt is wrong. But I sure do love the fabric for this very lovely kaleidoscope quilt.
Hi Claudia - Yes, the 2 rows of yellow do appear to be sewn "upside down/wrong" because Jen was demonstrating how to sew the rows together. The 2 rows of yellow will be connected with other yellow triangles, to make 3 whole kaleidoscope blocks, if this makes sense. -Michelle
Wondering if the fabric is only sold in the kit, in case we just want to maybe use 3 colors?
We do sell this print individually, but we are currently out. Be sure to check back and see when it comes in.😊 - Abby
Would it be advisable to cut the triangle tips for blocks where the center of the hexagon is with the pointy ends of the triangles? Similar to what you did for the half hexagons before sewing together to avoid the offset?
Hi amyclark3072 - We don't seem to quite understand your first question. Could you perhaps send us a photo on FB Messenger, or support@shabbyfabrics.com so that we can better help you with this? -Michelle
Hi Jen
For a beginner quilter what would you suggest would be the best quilting machine to purchase? Thank you for your time appreciate it.
Glad this inspires you! You should stop by your local quilt shop and they should be able to guide you with that decision. - Abby
I love my Juki 2010Q. Strong, beautiful consistent stitches and around 1000 dollars
The lemon half hexies are upsides down I think.
Hi Kris - Yes, the 2 rows of yellow do appear to be sewn "upside down" because Jen was demonstrating how to sew the rows together. The 2 rows of yellow will be connected with other yellow triangles, if that makes sense. -Michelle
I want to order 5 yards of this beautiful fabric right away. Please reply!
We are currently sold out of it but more are coming in! Keep an eye out on our website! Thanks for your support!😊 - Abby
How many yards of fabric are in the quilt kit?
There is approximately 4 yards of fabric in the quilt kit.😊 - Abby
Can’t you cut the notch on the stack of triangles before you separate them?
Can you please tell us what time stamp in the video are you referring to? - Abby
@@ShabbyFabrics 24.31 as you are cutting the triangles spin the template to cut all the tips off at once.
I still don't understand where to start to cut for the design of choice. Help ?
We're happy you enjoy it! Keep in mind that your triangles will be 60 degree repeats - that's why Jen loves using the Marti Michel "magic mirrors" to give you an idea of what your kaleidoscope block will look like. Hope this makes sense :) -Michelle
If you want to fussy cut the design you want, watch Jenn's tutorial here. ruclips.net/video/qEViYJN2iSo/видео.html It should help.
