    Thank you, Rob for making the 3D blocks look easy and without Y seams. Y seams aren't especially hard but if you don't have to do them, the process of making a quilt is faster. I also like that you showed how to incorporate the left over sections in the borders. Adding this quilt to my 'To Do' list.

    I have been watching quilting videos on RUclips for quiet sometime now and I ran on to your videos. First I have never ever seen a man sewing quilts and I applaud you doing it. I really like the way you teach cuz you made it fun! not boring and your instructions are simple and easy, so thank you so much for sharing your videos

    You blow me away because this teaching of the 3d block pattern is now doable in my brain. Now you've made it simple so then it becomes fun. This looks very fun and on my to do list closer to the top of the list, like to 5 now. Thank you Rob, you Rock!!!

    i fell in love with the way people could do the three dimensional blocks ... the more controversy to a block the better i think for the quilt as a whole... it gives me a way to challenge myself ... it has become my therapy method of rejoicing with life.. so i want to thank you for your videos.. and now another way of making the 3 dimensional cube..

    This, is a fancier version of the first quilt idea that I fell in love with. The first was the simple tumbling blocks, but when I saw your block in a block tumblers I knew I have to make this quilt. I am a beginner, I started with a new sewing machine because I had to give up my first love of knitting due to arthritis. Well, this will be my second quilt ever. I started with the Three Dudes quilt you and Jenny did together. Thank you for your easy to follow directions. I have found a new passion. = ). Thank you for all the videos.

    I must admit that this is a great way to make this tumbling block quilt. I watched another video many years ago, and that was so difficult. But that pattern has been living in my mind ever since. So thank you ever so much!

    I come from a family that loves starting quilts but never finishing them,having finally quilted my mothers genuine 1970's hexie quilt (all paper pieced) I found the start of a tumbling blocks quilt that I had started with her leftovers. I must have been about 7 or 8. Still love love love this pattern and you have finally decades later given me the courage to try a machine version. Thanks for a beautiful inspiration.

  • @carolcurneal8010
    @carolcurneal8010 6 лет назад

    My first try at quilting was a tumbling block with the dreaded Y seam construction. I failed totally. I stopped and decided to start watching tutorials on how to quilt and have been quilting for 15 years but, never tried the tumbling block pattern until now. I am bound and determined to try and this time succeed . Thank you for your tutorial. It is a beautiful quilt.

    Japanese Jigsaw! Very early in my quilting life I saw it and fell in love. Bought the pattern & the template but it was years before I was willing to tackle it.

  • @kaybaertlein541
    @kaybaertlein541 5 лет назад

    I have watched a lot of the tumbling block tutorials trying to learn and you are the first one to clearly show the layout of the blocks. I loved the way you clearly showed the color matching idea to remember how to put the pieces together. Well done.

    My first hard quilt project was the egg money quilt. I found out it was not so bad, I just tried. The quilt came out great. You just need to try. Rob thank you for all the great work you do.

    @pajama_weather 6 лет назад +45

    I personally love that you talk a lot about the construction of your quilts and the "how" of things. I prefer to understand rather than just do as someone else does and then hope I end up with a similar result. If I have an understanding I'm more likely to be able to fix a mistake rather than tossing a project because I can't figure out where I went wrong.
    I'm very new to quilting. I made a very basic baby quilt with squares. That was my "practice" before jumping in with an Aztec Diamond quilt. That's how most of my hobbies start though. I just see a project I want to do for someone and that's where I go. lol I'm currently wanting to do some bargello quilting or a convergence quilt but they look far more complicated. I'm thinking I might practice with placemat versions. Maybe a video idea for you 😉

    The quilt I wanted to do the most was a traditional tumbling block. I started it with EPP and got about 1/4 of it done and then said nope. Got to figure out how to do it on my machine. So I tackled the dreaded y-seam. Turned out great and have made more than one. Love your 3D block. Has moved to my very long to do list. Thanks.

    The first quilt pattern I fell in love in love with was the cathedral window. I was terrified of it until I found an easy pattern and tutorial that used denim, of all things! I recently completed my first "faux" cathedral window project, and will definitely be doing more. Thanks, Rob, for your wonderful videos.

    @vanessacoombs91 6 лет назад +4

    My first attempt at patchwork was a Dresden plate. After I had finished, thankfully it was only a lap quilt, I swore I would never do another one. None of my centres were as neat as I wanted and some of the had peculiar humps in the middle. That was several years ago and I have recently completed a second quilt using the same pattern and it came out beautifully. I believe that this had a lot to do with practice but it was mostly learning better techniques from Rob and Jenny.

    • @terrypalardy7704
      @terrypalardy7704 6 лет назад

    Great video! My first love affair with a quilt was the Sunbonnet Sue made by my great grandmother and given to me as a child. It needed some repairs so I went into my first quilt shop. Thetecwas a gorgeous tumbling block quilt hanging on the wall.....hooked! However the y seams were way above my skill level. I watched Jenny's video and about 3 minutes in ordered the ruler and pattern . Now you've just opened up the next level for my addiction 😉 Thanks so much for sharing your process, I'm looking forward to making a 3D version.

  • @marianrobinson4082

  • @SewGurl58
    @SewGurl58 6 лет назад

    Rob at the 12:00 min point when you explain the block layout, that was the most simplified thought process I’ve ever seen of this block. Good job! Rob rather than trying to “cheat that 1/4 inch” pin match those seams by pinning and matching exactly where your stitching line will be. Can’t say there’s a pattern I’ve been “afraid” to try, that’s not my personality. I’m more of a jump in the pond feet first, worry about alligators later.

    LOve this pattern...My all time favourite is the log cabin but I did try the wedding ring pattern and found that quite challenging with the curved seams.... Now that I have been quilting for a while I might give that one another go.. Look forward to your tutorials each week..Thank you!!

  • @jeanisrael2732
    @jeanisrael2732 6 лет назад

    Excellent tutorial Rob. Thank you for making this block easier. This is the block I've always been fascinated by and wanted to make, but I didn't want to mess with those "Y" seams. As in math and anything there's more than one way to get to the end result. I love the bright colors you use.

    The first pattern I fell in love with was Log Cabin. But being pattern dyslexic (why do I quilt?), I was overwhelmed by it. I finally bought precuts from Jordan Fabrics and that quilt has now been entered in the Arizona Quilter's Guild show for Feb 2020. But I also love tumbling blocks. It's on my bucket list. Thank you. Hoping it will be as easy for me as you made it look.
