That was brilliant. Nicely paced and easy to follow. HWMBI (He Who Must Be Ignored) has hundreds of neck ties he no longer wears since his retirement so I'm going to cut them to use in the windows. I doubt he'll even notice ha ha. Compliments to the camera man too. He caught all the action and kept it in good focus. Thank you.
An excellent quilter gave me this pattern in 1980s, I've not been confident enough to make, but, now I'm ready to tackle this. Has been on my Bucket list now will start in 2024, yeah! Thank you
I've watched a ton of how to videos on making a cathedral window quilt/pillow. Yours is the only one that shows marking the diagonal lines with a marking pen and sewing along that line. First I tried the method of folding the points of the squares to the center and then joining the squares by sewing along the crease line. That seems to be the most popular method but I wasn't completely satisfied with my results. I then tried your method and I feel I got a better result. My sewed together squares were more accurate. So I thank you for taking the time to make this video showing an alternative way of doing this. It's how I will be doing any future cathedral window projects.
Cathedral Window quilts are my favorite ones to do. Great job showing how it is done. Love your choice in colors, I like to hand sew the final stage, busy work in the evening in front of the TV.
I've always wanted to make a cathedral window quilt but it has intimidated me for years! But after watching you, I think I will try it on a small scale and go from there! Thank you for a fantastic video!!
This is a really great tutorial! Thanks so much. I am currently making a baby quilt in a different Cathedral Window quilt method (all done with 3.5" cut squares) and I am loving it ... your method is more like the traditional hand sewn blocks and I really like it too. I might give your method a try for a pillow.
Wow, it’s so beautiful, a lot of work. Beyond my talent but I wish I could create a masterpiece like that. Thank you for sharing from Innisfil Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you! I have made some of these (quite a few years ago) and wanted to do more now. I had used a combination of machine and hand sewing. Looking forward to using your method! Beautiful job of explaining!
Wow, you did a great job, both sewing and demonstrating! I tried to make this block a few years ago, unsuccessfully, and never tried it again. Nimble fingers is a must for this. You did a super job. Can’t imagine making a quilt! Thanks for the explanation.👍
This was very well presented. You make it seem quite doable. Before I ever started quilting, the two blocks I was drawn to were flying geese and cathedral windows. I've made lots of flying geese, but haven't attempted the cathedral windows. I think the stitching order of sewing down the curves has me intimidated. Nice video.
My Great Grandmother made one for everyone of us that was named after her. But I was the last one and I did not get one. So she told me how to make it but I don't remember the sizes of the background square and the color square. She did everything by hand for all of the quilts. Can you please tell me what sizes you used for yours?
Excellent close up and explaining! I just beginning so I've watched & studied this pattern and you have done the best so I'm sticking with your way . Yours looks the best also.
Дякую за детальний майстер- клас. Давно хочу пошити наволочку на подушку в техніці "Кафедральне вікно". Проте ніяк не могла зрозуміти в чому головний секрет. Щиро вам дякую 🌷🇺🇦
Thank you Ruth! I’m going to practice on my new machine. You have inspired me! Everything about this video was outstanding! And subscribed! Please, Is that a muslin backing?
Beautiful! This is a bucket list quilt for me and you made it look so easy and manageable. I missed how big the window squares are that lay on top of the muslin. Can you let me know please. Thank you so much.
Thank you. Do you have a video on how to finish the pillow? And how do you determine the muslin square size if you were to use mini charms or charm size inner squares.
See the video on ‘ the sewing channel’. She used 2 1/2 inch squares I believe. I find it works better as you aren’t folding over the coloured square as well as the white edges. Then you won’t have the problem of some coloured pieces popping out that you have to trim later. And also, you can use those precut 2.5 “ squares if you have them. Im no expert, I’m just beginning one and researching the best method that works for me.
What sizes of squares were used in the all hand made quilt? My Great Grandmother told me when I was a lot younger than I am now. But I have forgotten what she said. For some reason I want to say the big one was 8" × 8" and the color ones were 2" × 2". Can you tell me?
When making a large quilt do you make a row the full length of the quilt and then join it to another strip the same length until you get the with you want?
If I wanted to make a quilt would I use the nine block segments and then attach them all together at the end? I figured if I made 16 those that would be a 70 x 70 finished quilt. Am I correct in thinking this?
I’ve been researching the best method on RUclips videos to do my own quilt. On ‘ the sewing channel’ she did a lovely quilt. I think she said it was 30 -40 yards of just the white fabric ( 360- 9.5 “ squares) and 360 - 2.5 “ coloured squares to do a quilt 85” x 89 “. It’s a mammoth project but what a beautiful keepsake.
Yes, I made 8 block segments, then joined them in rows, then joined the rows together. I have to admit it was a bear sewing those middle rows together but it turned out beautiful.
Thank you for this tutorial. I just started on making this project. I tried your method and I find it to be a lot easier. The problem I am having is the background fabric. When I sewed the ends to make square and turn them right side out, they looked like I cut them on the bias. What am I doing wrong?
@@rwquilts I pressed the corners and even used spray starch. Also, I restitched the ends. That didn’t work. Thank you so much for replying. I love ❤️ your way of making this gorgeous quilt!!
Buenos días señora Ruthie me gsusto el vídeo pero las medidas de los cuadros cuales son q pena cada q empiese un vídeo dar las medidas yo soy colombiana y no entiendo su idioma

I am fascinated by the cathedral patch work always.
The background piece is 9 * 9 inches, what is the sizeof the centre coloured ones pls
@@sagarikak9315 you may have found out by now, but comments above say 2 5" window squares.
First, I love your sewing table. Second, great tutorial and editing. You are a good teacher!
This is the first time I watched how this is done. You make it look so easy. You did a beautiful job. Thanks.
Yayh finally someone who has a mind to how much thread she is waisting. You go girl.

Super fabulous, very nice work & color choice. Thanks for sharing great explanation.
Thank you for this tutorial. I love the Cathedral Window quilt. I never thought about marking the sewing line. You made it look so easy!
The small pieces like this were pretty easy. Joining rows of 6 of these segments to one another was tricky.
Beautiful work ❤

Wow! What a quilt! Stunning!
GREAT CAMERA work! Its helpful to get right in there and really see
Thanks

Can't believe how beautiful it turn out. Aqua is my favorite color now. I wish I had the patients to go s.tesl big one.

Thank you for taking the trouble to put a vid up. I’ve not seen it done this way, interesting. Love the turquoise and white 👍.
Wonderful tutorial!
Very nice thanks

Thank you for sharing how to do the cathedral block. It looks like I may be able to do this, I will be very slow. I will have to start very small.🤭🥰
Precioso, excelente trabajo 😊🤗😍💕💖
Maravilhoso.Apaixonei

Beautiful! This is a bucket list quilt for me and you made it look so easy and manageable. I missed how big the window squares are that lay on top of the muslin. Can you let me know please. Thank you so much.
The window squares were cut 2.75”. Let me know how it goes.

Lovely tutorial, thank you! Quick question-what kind of presser foot are you using? I love it. Thank you.
It’s called a walking foot.
Beauty...what is the size of the center piece( teal)
TYVM RUTHIE. COULDN'T FIND MY BOOK
Muy hermoso
What sizes of squares were used in the all hand made quilt? My Great Grandmother told me when I was a lot younger than I am now. But I have forgotten what she said. For some reason I want to say the big one was 8" × 8" and the color ones were 2" × 2". Can you tell me?
I used 9” and 2-3/4”
When making a large quilt do you make a row the full length of the quilt and then join it to another strip the same length until you get the with you want?
Yes, I made enough of this size to make a row, then sewed them together.
Really nice work!!!! Question: 1, how big of those square,4"? 2, How big the 'pillow case' ended up, 18?
If I wanted to make a quilt would I use the nine block segments and then attach them all together at the end? I figured if I made 16 those that would be a 70 x 70 finished quilt. Am I correct in thinking this?
I think you may have to make more then 16, maybe 5x5 or 25.
How many of those panels does it take to make a queen size quilt? How many yards of material for the quilt
I really don’t know. I was given a partial quilt to finish.
I’ve been researching the best method on RUclips videos to do my own quilt. On ‘ the sewing channel’ she did a lovely quilt. I think she said it was 30 -40 yards of just the white fabric ( 360- 9.5 “ squares) and 360 - 2.5 “ coloured squares to do a quilt 85” x 89 “. It’s a mammoth project but what a beautiful keepsake.
Hi can I use the 9 square to make a much bigger quilt, by just adding more each side.
Yes, I made 8 block segments, then joined them in rows, then joined the rows together. I have to admit it was a bear sewing those middle rows together but it turned out beautiful.
@@rwquilts Thank you I am really looking forward to making my quilt - God Bless
@@juliewhite1011 m
Ruth what's the size of the coloured squares
They were 2.75”. I had to trim a bit on some of them.
Thank you for this tutorial. I just started on making this project. I tried your method and I find it to be a lot easier.
The problem I am having is the background fabric. When I sewed the ends to make square and turn them right side out, they looked like I cut them on the bias. What am I doing wrong?
Mine did that too sometimes. I never figured out why but I pressed the blocks from the corners.
@@rwquilts I pressed the corners and even used spray starch. Also, I restitched the ends. That didn’t work. Thank you so much for replying. I love ❤️ your way of making this gorgeous quilt!!
What size are the colored squares?
Almost 2.75”
What size small square do you use.
2.75”
Buenos días señora Ruthie me gsusto el vídeo pero las medidas de los cuadros cuales son q pena cada q empiese un vídeo dar las medidas yo soy colombiana y no entiendo su idioma
Los cuadros de atrás son 9 pulgadas y los cuadros de ventana son 2.75 pulgadas
