    As a Canadian Brownie leader, a Campfire Quilt really appeals to me! Girl Guides of Canada's signature colour is blue and the Brownie's branch colour is orange, so this one is definitely calling my name! Maybe I'll have time to put a quilt together after I finish hand sewing these badges and crests onto my camp blanket!

    Oh my goodness... How does anyone have the patience for this particular craftwork? I'm not being at all critical, I just can't imagine being able to sit down to this much work.... Especially at midnight! Are quilters the most patient people on the planet? (Or am I missing something?!) Serious respect to all of you who do this!

    I found this at the perfect time! My sister's scrap bin was overflowing. Like seriously this 44 gallon bin had scraps falling on the floor! So I graciously (stupidly) offered to bring the scraps home and see what I can create out of the chaos. She has tons of strips! I now know what I'm doing with them 😍 thank you for all your videos.

    Today I made the quilt out of some 2.5 inch strips and for the first time ever I machine free motion quilted it. There is a definite rhythm that needs to be found and I have yet to find mine but in time I’m hopeful. Thanks for all the designs and guidance you offer.

    So glad to see you again. I was going thru withdrawal without a new video. Angela, I need to say THANK YOU! I was piling up pieced quilt tops (which I love to do), but was afraid to FMQ them. However, since watching you, you have given me the confidence to try-it (Try-it - also the name of a young Daisy Girls Scouts activities for a badge). I am so excited that I can actually do it. I too am a former Girl Scout and a former Girl Scout Leader - those cookies are addictive and the money from the sales pay for the troop to do activities. They are the only thing that the girls can use to raise money. Anyway, quilt on and eat more Girl Scout Cookies

    @momgrandma5496 5 лет назад +1

    In the 80s, my daughter was a top seller of Girl Scout cookies, only because we walked around the center of town and hit all the businesses. Then we had to deliver all those cookies. (%) Just another devoted Mom and Girl Scout leader developing future leaders. The quilt is striking with the background strips in between the colored ones, great tip about crossing over into the strip sections for the quilting.

    WOW! At first I thought the colors were not for me, but when I saw the final product, it looked super! I have a funny Girl Scout story. Many years ago, I was a co-leader in our troop and my daughter was a super cookie seller, too She had some help, though. We lived in a neighborhood where there were quite a few pro football players and they would buy 10-12 boxes at a time. My daughter told them that they could freeze the cookies since they bought so many, but they would tell her..."No, we'll eat them right away!"

    What a great quilt. My sister and I were both in Brownies and one time my Mom volunteered to help. Her job was to teach the girls how to sew on buttons and she had to fail my sister because she did such a bad job. My sister is still slightly traumatized :) BTW, if you precut the logs to size before sewing them on, they won't stretch out. A bit of extra time at the cutting stage will save a lot of grief at the end. TFS.

    Really appreciate the fact that you used different quilting patterns; definitely helps me with options for when it's time for me to quilt my project. I did have a question about the binding and batting portions since those parts are always skipped. I've never done a binding before and my first quilt project is currently expected to roughly be 4yds x 4yds. (I know, a lot to do for a first project) however i just want to be prepared for those steps as the batting isn't long enough and I will eventually have to sew the pieces together. Wanted to know if you have any tips or if you could make a how to on these portions. Thanks a million!

      If you are free motion quilting, you can use a darning foot that came with your machine or purchase a generic Free Motion foot at a sewing/quilt shop. Turn stitch length to ZERO, and put your feed dogs down. You could also do regular stitching and do just straight lines or a grid on your quilt...or stitch in the ditch.
