    How might it look with the background fabric looking like an evergreen tree and all the beads be in Christmas fabrics? I'd hope it would look like the ornaments on a Christmas tree.

    • @nannettjordan671
      @nannettjordan671 2 года назад +2

      @@KateGas you need to add the triangles as part of each row. So when you lay out your pieces on a design wall or a spare bed, you'll be able to see what side of the triangle that needs to be sewn to the row. Once each row is sewn, then you sew rows together. It's best to sew one half the quilt top then the next. The
      Last part is to sew the two halves together

    Hi Donna 💖 This morning, I watched this video for the second time. I am not sure when I first watched your Bead Quilt video, but I know it has been months. I absolutely love the pattern. Right from the first, I wanted to make your Bead Quilt. My take aways, after tuning in for a second time are these. First, I am now even more determined to make your beautifully stylized quilt. Second, I realized I should be listening with pen and notebook in hand: you definitely give important make or break--but easily doable--advice for ensuring long lasting, professional looking results. Third, I remembered what I had imagined when you first introduced me to your new quilt pattern, Christmas Decorating. Do you think your beautiful beads pattern would look elegant if the beads and backing were made using luxurious Christmas fabric? Fourth, I had forgotten that you had made two completely unique versions of this pattern using very different fabric collections (I cannot pick which quilt I like best. I love them both! Which quilt I will make will depend on who it is for and what the occasion happens to be.) Fifth, I absolutely never tire of watching your quilting tutorials. Every single time I have watched one of your videos, I am amazed by how many ways you over deliver and expand the possibilities for your subscribers benefit. 📣Thank you most sincerely! 🏆✨

  • @kjones4328
    @kjones4328 5 лет назад +1

    Love it!! Thank you for the free pattern!! I've been wanting to make something for our coach. This makes me think of State Swimming and Diving Conference with all the lanes.

    @arianaorton3658 5 лет назад

    Both of the beads quilts are beautiful. They have a very different feel to them. The floral one makes me feel like I'm at my Grandma's house. The one with the cream background feels more modern. I like them both, but if you ever do a giveaway of the one with the cream background, I'll definitely sign up for that! Thank you for the endless entertainment, inspiration, and instruction. Your videos are always so clear and easy to understand! I especially appreciate the explanation of how to cut the triangles that go on the edges, why you want the grain going along the edge of the quilt instead of alongside the blocks themselves, and how to cut them so that they do. Over the past few months that I have been watching your channel, I have been hoping to see you give more detail on that. My aunts and several members of my family are avid quilters and have been for years, and they all recently conspired to infect me with the "bedbug". But they all live so far away, and I can't hang out with them and learn from them nearly as much as I would like. So I appreciate your videos. They are the next best thing! I live in Portland, so next time I get to drive through Grants Pass, I am excited to come see your shop.

  • @margaretquinn8583
    @margaretquinn8583 5 лет назад +5

Now i love watching this fabulous teacher breaking down the mysteries!!!
