I know your daughter loved this quilt. I will be keeping my eyes open for sheets, tablecloths, etc when I’m thrift shopping. That’s a great way to save $$$. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Beth I love how real you make your quilts… I used to struggle trying to make everything perfect but I’ve watched so many RUclips videos of wonderful people embracing their imperfection which has really improved my sewing… weird huh. I love watching you create because everything you make is so perfectly imperfectly perfect if that makes any sense. Thank you for your inspiration and your authenticity. You are truly a quilt maker that I admire Immensely. Thank you for sharing you talent ❤️
Looks great, I’ll be starting to do cross hatch on my quilt tomorrow. I’ve always wanting to do it, so this time I’m going for it. Thanks for sharing yours. 👍❤️🙂
Thank you Beth.. When I quilt.. I typically use what works for me. It's nice to see other quilters do the same rather than by the book. Your quilt is really lovely!! ❤❤
I've made many string and strip quilts and loved them all, but I had my doubts seeing all the different fabrics and various colors and styles, wondered how the end would turn out. OMGOsh, it was beautiful!!!! - the crosshatch quilting was a perfect finish - I should not have doubted the end result. Thank you for the proof that even that collection of strips, colors, values, genres, all went together wonderfully.
I enjoyed this video. I do a lot of cross hatch or stitch in the ditch quilting. I use my walking foot for this and it comes with a side bar. I use to stitch all the lines but the first one. It’s a lot faster than the painters tape and about as accurate. The bar can be adjusted for width, so I can quilt close or wider. Works well. Not sure the bar is for this purpose, but it works great.
Thank you Beth, I have a baby quilt that I will try this on for my niece who is having her first baby, my mom pieced it before she passed and I will finish it😊
I used this quilt design on my first attempt at quilting. SewVeryEasy showed how to do this using a wavy line which I made wide and long. If I got off the line, it didn't matter. I try to use lines and wiggles on all my donation quilts, it's quick and easy. Your daughter's quilt is beautiful ❤️.
I also love cross hatch machine quilting but I am not as brave as you doing large items. I only tackle small pieces that are easy to manage. I love watching you sew and how your quilt sandwich behaves for you. Looks great on the bed👍🇦🇺
That is such a cute blanket for a little girl. I have a Juki like yours and it can handle thick fabrics, etc. I’m sure that is why you don’t have to use a walking foot.
Great tips Beth, this will really help me finish the Scrappy quilt I have on the go using your Circle of Strings design. What I like so much about RUclips in general and your channel in particular is how something you made 6 or 12 months ago is NEW to me when I find it. Looking is at your past work is like finding a gold mine 🤩
Lovely quilt.. watched the process from beginning to end & Love your relaxed style of quilt making. I am encouraged to tackle some unfinished projects that just require quilting, using your method from today. Your daughter's quilt is beautiful . ❤️
There's so much more fulfillment in doing your own quilting on a quilt you pieced vs sending it out to a longarmer - but maybe that's just me because I can't afford it. I love the crosshatch look especially for a utility quilt. Also, I enjoyed the background music on the video as it was fun to listen to and so appropriate for watching a sped up video. Thanks for the video.
I really enjoy all of your videos. Your projects always turn out lovely. I also like your practical methods and materials. It is nice to see. I, personally, cannot afford all of the fancy things used on some of the quilting tutorials. I have never used a walking foot to quilt my projects. My two machines, a hand-crank Singer 99k and '70s Elna SU seem to do fine quilting without one. I tried a walking foot once, but it didn't turn out well for me either, so I never use it.
I'm fortunate that my Pfaff machine doesn't need a walking foot because there's an integrated system that moves the top fabric at the same speed as the bottom fabric. Take care.
I broke my Brother CS 6000i by using my walking foot. I haven't even tried one on my Singer Quantum because it goes just fine with the purple Big Foot quilting foot. Thank you so much for the tutorials. They are so informative.
I really love the scrappy quilts. Or maybe i feel stifled by an orderly quilt where all the pieces must be as so...not sure but I enjoy EVERY quilt you make. BTW, I'm still slowly plodding along on the H blocks....i have 3 projects on the go and the H makes 4!!!!
Have you ever tried sewing your grid with the guide bars that you place in the back of your foot? It would save measuring and marking with tape. I never tried it. thought you may have an opinion.
I was quilting potholders today. They were so thick I could barely get them under the walking foot. I started with 4 waves across the potholder. After a couple, it started to look like a child’s scribbles . I decided to call it the “human” style.
I like crosshatching my quilts, you can't go wrong with the basics. In an online tutorial I watched, the quilter said "it's called a walking foot - don't run with it"! I had better results when I slowed down & lowered the presser foot pressure.
Hello again Beth, I’m looking for a new machine and I’m wondering how you are liking your juki? You do fabulous work with it. Is their anything you feel you’d like your machine to do that it doesn’t do now?? Thank you 😊
I have not tried washable markers....Maybe I will someday. I've heard stories of markers that were supposed to be for quilting and stained the fabric. That sort of worries me. 😉
How do you cut your thread after each row? I could follow you moving the tape but not how you transitioned the thread to the next step. On my machine I have to cut the thread on the underside.
Since the quilt is not square the diagonal line does not go corner to corner. I used the 45 degree angle so that the lines make squares on point. If I went corner to corner with the line it would not be 45 degrees and I think it would be more of a diamond shape. Hope that helps.
I love the way you see! Not everything is “perfectly” done. You just make lovely quilts! Thanks for sharing 😊
I know your daughter loved this quilt. I will be keeping my eyes open for sheets, tablecloths, etc when I’m thrift shopping. That’s a great way to save $$$. Thank you for sharing.
The quilt is adorable.
My favourite videos are of you finishing a quilt - all that quilty goodness at the end - that quilt is beautiful 👏👏
Thank you 😊

Great hints using the painters tape. Love this, so inspirational. The whole quilt turned out beautifully. Thanks again Beth 💕🇦🇺

Thank you Beth. You are so generous with your time and fantastic piecing ideas and quilting techniques. I enjoy your style very much.
So whimsical and a fun way to use scraps up! Adorable. Thanks so much ❤😊

I love your videos!!!! ❤️. I feel normal watching you....that’s a big compliment.
Your quilt is lovely…thanks for teaching us all the ins and outs of finishing a quilt Beth✂️🪡🔆🧵❤️
Thanks, Beth. You always inspire me to think simple and get something’s done.
Thank you Beth, I have a baby quilt that I will try this on for my niece who is having her first baby, my mom pieced it before she passed and I will finish it😊
It's always so nice to finish a quilt! Happy sewing!
Hi.
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Beth for making this video! You do quilt your own. You make it easy to believe We can too!
Thank you so much for showing me show to cross hatch! Yes I do a lot of eye balling too😂 you make everything look simple! Your a great teacher!
I have been looking all over RUclips and I think that you explained it the best! Thank you!!
Love it. Not a fan of quilting things to death. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you Beth!
That's a really pretty quilt, and a great quilting lesson! Thank you!
That was an easy-to-understand, informational, smooth tutorial that was cool to watch.
Thank you.
Simply perfect, I adore this quilt. Thank you 🌸
I really really love this quilt. Such beautiful happy colors💕💕💕I am sure your daughter will always appreciate this sew much!🤗
Very enjoyable. The tape idea is very handy. I like your sensible and relaxed attitude to the quilting. It looks great.
You are a wonderful teacher! You make quilting look so easy to do and you make it easy to digest! 💖💖

Oh my gosh! You make it look so easy! Loved this video. Makes me want to try to quilt my own! ❤️
Good tip about using short strips of painters tape. The quilt turned out great!
thank you🙂
That is such a cute blanket for a little girl. I have a Juki like yours and it can handle thick fabrics, etc. I’m sure that is why you don’t have to use a walking foot.
Love your quilting methods....thank you!

Gorgeous, love it!! I swore I would never give in to basting spray. It's so easy I'll never safety pin again.
Thank you Beth. The finished quilt looks fabulous. I too sew by eyeballing..... As always, a joy to watch. Love n hugs Dottie xx
Good idea. For home machine quilt. Thanks for sharing.
I love your projects! ❤️ real life! The best! Thank you for sharing!
Lovely quilt.. watched the process from beginning to end & Love your relaxed style of quilt making. I am encouraged to tackle some unfinished projects that just require quilting, using your method from today. Your daughter's quilt is beautiful . ❤️

I really enjoy watching you make beautiful quilts out of bits and pieces. That is a gift and you got it.
Thank you so much!

That turned out darling. Thanks for sharing
Love the quilt!
I’ll give that a try… never thought about tape 😂
That's really pretty, I've subscribed today.
Really great video.
Thanks for sharing 👍❤️😊
Beautiful!
Great Thank You/ Gisela in Sweden
It is such a cute quilt!
I did the exact thing the other day, worked like a charm. Love your videos.
Thanks for tips. I always put safety pins. I will try basting spray. 😊
Love it you always make such beautiful things. Thank you for the inspiration😍😇
I really love the scrappy quilts. Or maybe i feel stifled by an orderly quilt where all the pieces must be as so...not sure but I enjoy EVERY quilt you make. BTW, I'm still slowly plodding along on the H blocks....i have 3 projects on the go and the H makes 4!!!!
It is typical to have more than ONE quilt going. I call it a dance....which one will be my partner today??
Have you ever tried sewing your grid with the guide bars that you place in the back of your foot? It would save measuring and marking with tape. I never tried it. thought you may have an opinion.
I do not have that attachment...but it sounds like a good option. 🙂
I was quilting potholders today. They were so thick I could barely get them under the walking foot. I started with 4 waves across the potholder. After a couple, it started to look like a child’s scribbles . I decided to call it the “human” style.
Are the pieces random scraps or leftovers? Did u cut them deliberately different? Thank you love your quilt.
This quilt was made from leftovers/random scraps. I was trying to USE UP a bunch of scraps. 😉
I like crosshatching my quilts, you can't go wrong with the basics. In an online tutorial I watched, the quilter said "it's called a walking foot - don't run with it"! I had better results when I slowed down & lowered the presser foot pressure.
I have a very hard time going slow!
@@bethshibleyquilts So true, especially when you have a high speed machine.
Hello again Beth, I’m looking for a new machine and I’m wondering how you are liking your juki? You do fabulous work with it. Is their anything you feel you’d like your machine to do that it doesn’t do now?? Thank you 😊
I like my juki. It is a very simple machine...no extra stitches...but that's ok with me.
Hi Beth just wondered what batting you prefer to use for your projects thanks!
When machine quilting I use a cotton/polyester. 👌
I love your philosophy on quilting!! Thanks. Why not use washable markers instead of tape?
I have not tried washable markers....Maybe I will someday. I've heard stories of markers that were supposed to be for quilting and stained the fabric. That sort of worries me. 😉
@@bethshibleyquilts I understand. I use heat erasable markers. They really disappear with an iron.
How do you cut your thread after each row? I could follow you moving the tape but not how you transitioned the thread to the next step. On my machine I have to cut the thread on the underside.
My machine has a thread cutter. I push a button 👍
Hi, Beth...do you do the first line from corner to corner?
Since the quilt is not square the diagonal line does not go corner to corner. I used the 45 degree angle so that the lines make squares on point. If I went corner to corner with the line it would not be 45 degrees and I think it would be more of a diamond shape. Hope that helps.
@@bethshibleyquilts
Perfect. Learned something new from you, as usual!!!
Is using the walking foot too fast what caused you to have machine repaired and if so what did it do to the machine
Quilting too fast with the walking foot did not harm my machine…I think it weakened my walking foot. Everything still works fine.
I have a Janome and I do a lot better with my regular foot when quilting that trying to use the walking foot.
You shouldn't have to "push" when your walking foot is on, check your feed dogs they may be your problem
thank you for your suggestion 🙂
