I have so many pretty fabrics that I really don’t want to cut up. This is a perfect way to make a quilt and keep the designs. Thank you.
Yes, I love patchwork pieced quilts but when you have a great print, it is just so hard to cut it. You can use those prints as backings, but this project lets you feature two pretty prints! Thanks for watching and happy creating!
Thank you so much for this video. I've just started quilting and have never seen a quilt made this way! I'm definitely going to try it. I'm on my second whole cloth quilt - hope to graduate up to the "regular" piece quilting soon. Beautiful material! Thanks so much!!!
Wonderful! You’ll be ready for pieces quilts sooner than you know. I have an east half square triable quilt tutorial you should check out. Happy Quilting!
Your fabric choices are fabulous.
Thank you. I love seeing because I LOVE fabric!
Some fabrics don't want to be cut up, and this is a perfect design choice. Thank you for the inspiration. I might do this with the Marie Antoinette heads by Tula Pink.
Yes! I have some of that Maria Antoinette fabric in the 3 color ways-I’ve been planning to cut in to it for years but just can’t! Happy Creating!
Yes I would def make this - maybe even with a panel 🇬🇧
Panel blankets are fun.
Thank you for your easily understood video. I’m making a king size quilt for my granddaughters wedding from one material that I need to sew together. I just didn’t know where to start. I am grateful to you for the information.
Congratulations to your granddaughter! What a beautiful wedding gift this will be. I’m sure she will treasure it. Happy creating!
Beautiful…I absolutely love the elephant print. Will definitely try this, so quick and easy. Thank you for the great tutorial! ❤
Thanks. Happy Creating!
I'm a beginner, having just finished my first quilt using a Christmas pre-printed panel. This method is really encouraging me to continue to make simple, easy and fun quilts like this one. Thank you for the very clear and simple instructions. Great job!!!
Wonderful! I love these simple and fun projects, especially for gift giving. They are still so special but you can also get them completed in a reasonable amount of time during this busy season. And for beginners, it is just great practice and wonderful for sewing confidence building! Happy Sewing!
Hi Sheree..what a lovely easy quilt..I will be making one for myself and a friend to cover our legs when sat watching T.V. in cold England❤
Thanks June😊
Hi June. I make these for my family a few Christmas ago so we all have movie night blankets! I’m in Minnesota-so Ivan relate. Happy Sewing and thank you so much for watching and commenting. 🧵
I love this! Sometimes I just need a quick, cute quilt to get that satisfaction of making something lovely, and this will do the trick! Thank you! Also, I love your voice, and your clear, gentle way of instruction. I look forward to more videos from you! 🧵🪡
Hi! Yes, that’s what this project is for. It is also a great way to just practice the quilting technique and not have the added time commitment of patchwork piecing a top-which can also be a lot for someone new to sewing and quilting. Plus, when you have a really pretty fabric you sometimes don’t want to cut up the lovely print! Happy Creating and thanks for the encouragement!
Lovely. The material does not need much embleshiment for a great result.
Yes, the print is just so pretty. Too much piecing or quilting could take away from it. Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much Sheree, I really really enjoyed watching you create this beautiful and pretty quilt. Yes I think it’s something I could try to do. I would have liked to see you do some of the stitching 🧵 too. Please stay safe and well too
Thanks for watching. I have several quilting videos coming but I also uploaded a couple projects where I show you the stitching. I didn’t have my quilting table set up well to record and quilt when I did this one.
I hope you’ll try it though. Take care!
Hi again Sheree! I am currently making two projects this way. I’m making a wall hanging for my grandson’s bedroom with Steampunk fabric. I will be turning it tomorrow and then doing the quilting. I’m also going to start the in-between blanket and use different flannel which is of better quality than what I originally planned on using. On my list, is to get some of that polka dot fabric from Tula Pink for a future project. Hope you are well!
Hi. What a wonderful gift for your grandson! The Tula dots are darling. Happy Creating!
I absolutely love this!!! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Absolutely stunning, I am blown away by how pretty this is.
Thank you so much!
Great fabric choice for that project my kind of quilt. One and done ❤
Yes, these quick and easy projects are great. And you can let the fabrics shine!
very pretty ... easy and simple
Yes, I think any little girl would love cuddling with this quilt!
Tula Pink has amazing fabric for those of us that love bold print. This a great way to show them off.
Love this! I’m making some baby quilts soon and will do it this way!
Wonderful Vicky! Let us know how they turn out. Happy Creating!
Your skin tone against those Tula colours looks AMAZING!!!
Also, why are whole cloth quilts not more accepted as quilt gifts? They are such a brilliant idea!!!!!😊
They make wonderful gifts, especially when you have a spectacular fabric that you really don’t want to cut up.
thank you for sharing this beautiful quilt. I have a baby shower this coming May. I going to make this today. from Chicago 2024
What a beautiful baby shower gift this will be. Happy creating!
Thank you for making this so simple ❤
You're so welcome!
Great video! Thank you for showing us how to do this, the quilt is absolutely adorable ❤
You are so welcome!
Hi Sheree, such great colors on this quilt. Love it, and yes I would totally make this quilt. Thanks for an easy to follow video. Have a great day.
Hi Lola! I love this color combo and print, so sweet! I hope you’ll try it and reach out if you get stuck on anything!
I love those sweet elephants, the colors are beautiful.
They are really sweet!
Thanks for making this so easy and able to understand each step taken!!!
You are so welcome! I’m glad it was helpful.
Such cute fabric
Isn’t it sweet!
Hey Sheree. Just browsing RUclips tonight and came up to your tutorial. Very pretty fabrics. You made that quilt quick. Awesome job Sheree. I think I can make a quilt. I’m going to try this fall. I finished putting up some canned peach jams and chow chow today. I’ve been really busy with my harvest. Also I planted some kale today for the fall garden. Truly enjoying my garden this year. Happy sewing Sheree!🪡🧵
Hi Ms. Brenda! That is awesome-you should definitely give this a try! Enjoy the rest of your gardening season!
Hi Sheree! This looks easier than putting together a charm pack. The fabric is lovely!
Yes, definitely faster and great when you just want to showcase a singular fabric!
Thank you for showing this. Such a great and quick idea for a quilt or baby quilt.
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much!
You are welcome. Thanks for watching!
Turned out so pretty! Love your choice of fabric! WONDERFUL! Great directions too! Thank you! ❤
Thank you so much! I have lots more fun videos coming soon! I hope you’ll check back. Happy New Year!
Such a great idea! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much!
I made a baby quilt in a similar way but bound it with joined 2 1/2” strips. It never occurred to me to make a bigger size, so I will definitely be trying it your way. You voice is very laid back, but to the point and I really enjoyed your video. Thank you and Happy New year!
You are kind-thank you so much for the encouraging words. I sometimes worry I’m too laid back for RUclips. 🤣 don’t want viewers falling asleep. But sewing really relaxes me and so it shows in the videos I guess. I appreciate you watching. I bet the strip quilt turned out lovely!
That is beautiful I going to try this method ☺️ thanks
I hope it works well for you. These are fast and easy projects!
Very very beautiful, thanks thanks
Most welcome 😊
Beautiful ❤️ Great idea!
Thanks.
Beautiful
Thanks so much. It’s the sweetest fabric. I’m a bit partial to pink and elephants though!
Great idea and Quick! Thanks so much!
Hello. You are welcome!
So beautiful! Thank you for sharing this video! Great technique💕
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Love this…Thank you for sharing this technique! Love Tula Pink, too…😊
You are so welcome!
Pretty. I must give this a try!
I hope you will. They are quick and lovely gifts!
That is so beautiful
Thank you!
I am glad I found this video. Love it.
Thanks so much! Welcome!
Thank you so much for sharing. I want to make a quilt like this. it will get done, and I will not get frustrated by uneven squares and hst's.
I love patchwork piecing, but this quick one always lifts your quilting spirit! Have fun making yours!
Beautiful quilt and a great tutorial.
Thanks so much!
Great idea with beautiful fabrics ❤❤❤
Thank you! 😊
Great idea Sheree! Yes, I would.....or will, definately make one, and would splurge on the fabric since it's one piece-think it would justify the price. Blessings my friend!
You can use any priced fabric. Just pick great quality and a print you like. Happy seeing!
Love the colors love your blanket tfs. I want to make one.
Go for it!
Big fan of Tula Pink here just bought a jelly roll of that True Neon you used in your backing
The True Neon is such a unique collection that works well with several of her collections!
Very nice. So cute. Really a nice quilt for baby. I'm sure the mom will love it too.
Thanks!

Bravo to you in completing one. Keep it up! Happy Creating.
Love your fabrics. Who is the musician at end of video loved that too!
Looks like a quick, easy quilt to make. I especially like the the suggestion to use flannel instead of batting. Did you not iron your fabrics before sewing? I’m a little OCD and was wondering if there were any issues with the wrinkles.
I pressed the fabrics lightly. Because I used cotton batting and cotton fabric, I know they will both shrink up some and get crinkly. You can of course iron your fabric as much as you like. If you don’t want your quilt to look crinkly after wash you should pre wash your fabric and use a polyester batting which will not shrink up much.
Just found your channel. Is this similar to a WholeCloth Quilt? What is the finished size of your quilt? Super nice finished quilt.
I can’t remember but you lose about an inch on all sides as you sew with 5/8th inch seams and then quilt it. So figure out the size you want and add an inch around for seaming. Hope that helps!
Hi Sheree, this is the second time I watched this video and I think, in my case, it would be the perfect answer to that in-between blanket for Fall. I would put flannel in the middle. Do you suggest that I wash the flannel before I make the quilt? I think the flannel shrinks, unless if I can fine some used flannel around the house. This will be for a queen-size bed. Thanks for the great video!
Hi. Yes, using flannel would be a great option. It really depends on the flannel and the fabric. The cotton batting I use shrinks 1-2 percent. So if your flannel doesn’t shrink much, I’d say you are fine not to wash. You could pre wash and dry the flannel and outside fabrics. Then you know it’s all preshrunk. Different fabrics will shrink differently depending on the manufacturer. The designer quilters cottons I used shrink very little.
One thing you can do is a test swatch. Quilt a 6 inch sand which and wash it and dry it. Then re-measure and see if it looks too puckered for your taste. That way you don’t make a big quilt that your aren’t happy with.
I hope this helps a bit! Hugs, Sheree
@@shereesalchemyshop Thanks for the suggestions. I realized that I have a large piece of flannel that I used to use for my design wall. That’s what I will use. It has been washed many times so it is ready to go!
I just discovered your channel and I've already taken a peek at your Etsy store. I love both. So help me out a little bit with the Quilters math, if you cut 62-in (width of fabric 44 or 45 in?) is that roughly three and a half yards of each fabric? PS the fabric is gorgeous!
Hi and welcome to the channel. So a yard of fabric is equivalent to 36 inches (3 feet). So 62 inches is just short of 1.75 or 1 and 3/4 yards (which is 63 inches). And yes, these fabrics are 44 inches wide. So I started with two fabric pieces that were 61 inches long and 44 inches wide. Hope that helps and makes sense!
Did you have any trouble with the fabric bunching up when you got to the edges? That would be my only concern. Beautiful fabrics though and a great quick way to make a gift!
I didn’t. But the things I did in this video help prevent that issue. Give it a try and hopefully it works for you.
Just found your channel. Planning a whole cloth quilt; love the top fabric I've chosen, BUT I can only find my backing fabrict in 45" width. Do you think it will be ok to piece the back? Quilt will be queen size.
I like to round the corners on baby quilts. Do you ever round them?
Most quilt fabric is now 44 inches wide. But there is 108 inch wide quilt backing. And some flannels and cottons can be found that are 55 inches wide-they are usually marketed for apparel. You can use sheeting as a backing as well.
I like to round my edges on some blankets but I don’t usually on quilts. Rounded corners are a sweet touch for baby blankets.
Very nice! I’ll have to try it again when I did the stitching the batting was not flat what did I do wrong
Was the issue when you did the quilting stitches? Or the edge stitching? It could be two things-your quilting/sewing machine doesn’t have differential feeding, so it’s not allowing all of your layers to go through together, resulting in bunching.
It could also be an issue with your layers.
When you make your sandwich, you have to make sure the batting and all layers are flat. Basting in place can help you or you can also spray paste (spray basting comes in a spray can and you can follow those directions). Practice makes better, so start with a smaller blanket maybe. A little lap quilt that’s like 24th he’s square is always a nice place to start. Hope this helps!

@@shereesalchemyshop thank you. I’ll give it another try
practices with small squares-using some scraps. Play around with your machine settings (tension, stitch length, etc.) to see if those adjustments help. It is so machine depending sometimes. Good luck!
Can fleece be used to make this quilt?
Yes you can use pretty much any fabric for these double sided blanket quilts. Fleece can be a bit tricky to quilt. You could hand tie if you are new to quilting.
Supercute
Thanks Vanessa! 🧵
Is it just me or is Tula Pink and Kaffe Fassett fabrics are very very similar?
Very nice. Do you have a link to purchase the fabrics. Thanks for sharing
Hi. Thanks! These fabrics are available in my Etsy store, which is linked on my about page. I can add links to the description box if that’s is helpful-let me know.
I added the direct links to the description box. 🧵
