It says the Quiltcademy doors are closed. Is there a waiting list to sign up on?
I am also a self taught quilter, started when I retired and now at 83 am still learning tricks like this one to make quilting even more simple. You are a good instructor and appreciate your quiet demeanor. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your comment! There's always something new or changing, isn't there?! We are always learning!
83, you are still a puppy, you don’t get over the hill until 101. ❤
@@mtnjhutch Oh my gosh, I’m turning 82 next week, and I’ve wondered if I should be sizing down. You are so encouraging. I did longarming fo others for 20 years after I retired from my real job. I think I just need to keep positive and going forward. Thank you for the encouragement!
totally agree, like your style.
Love the quilting teacher in the video AND your comment!! I recently retired and am just starting my quilting adventure! 🥰
Thank you for your tutorial on an easy way to make four-patches. I totally agree with the previous comments that your quiet, to-the-point explanation was a blessing!! There are so many that talk, talk, talk before they get to the point. And by the way, I am 89, have been quilting for a while but am still learning!
Great to hear and we are always learning aren’t we?? Thanks for watching!!
Great job!
Thank goodness for you and the way you teach! I'm 72 and a new quilter! Your step by step approach is exactly what I need!!
hugs, Donna
Love your calming way of teaching. Nothing rushed, no repeating over & over & over again. Thank you for your time.
Oh thank you so much! And thanks for watching!
This is SO much better than many other tutorials I've watched.
Simplicity without endless repetitions, and no War-and-Peace length introductions about how gorgeous this quilt is going to be and how your great-great-grandma used to quilt while she was hiding from the Yankees in the attic.
Just the facts, ma'am.
Love your comment! ❤❤❤
AMEN! That’s funny. But so true!
Hysterical love this comment 😂😂
Oh my goodness! Your instruction is perfection... so clear, sequential, well-paced AND with inspiring passion! I'm grateful you appeared on my phone! Thank you very much. Word has to "get out" about you as you are exceptional! As a retired teacher of 41 years, I appreciate what it takes to teach so well! You're a marvel!
I hope your channel sky-rockets... it certainly should!
Oh you are too sweet and made my day!!!! I’m so glad to have you here!!!
Beautifully written, Margie! I couldn't agree more.
I know exactly what you mean as that was my background too.
you make it so easy to follow. Enjoyed tutorial!
What do they look like put together in a quilt? Do you intersperse them with a skid block, use smashing in between or just sew them all together?
I thoroughly enjoy not only your shared-techniques but also your ‘slower’ way of teaching! Thank you for teaching!😊
You’re welcome 😊 thank you for being here!
I have never done a four patch but will certainly try now. You are an excellent teacher and the speed of video is perfect. Thank you Karen.
You are a superb teacher. Thank you for just getting down to business with no chit chat. It shows you respect our time. I am very interested in seeing more on your pressed side with extra attention spent on your pressing decisions. ❤️👍
You are so welcome! Thank you for the kind words! And for the feedback! With these I actually press my seams open but you could press to one side if you preferred!
@@sugarstitchesquiltco I always press my seams to the side, and in situations like this, I 'spin' the center where the bulk is.
Lovely patches and teaching. Thank you so much.
Q
I have a question do I have to work this with 5 inch squares, can I do a bigger 4 patch using 8 inch ? I have 8 inch squares and I wanted to do 4 patch like this using my 8 inch pre-cut squares
I always have a seam ripper on hand. It’s not that I ever need it … but a friend might … yeah, that’s it … a friend …
Always a good friend to have nearby!
I'm a beginning quilter at 70+ and need all the tips I can get. I love patchwork squares! Thank you for showing such an easy method. I have purchased a couple of charm packs with prints I love but wasn't sure how to get started. Now I can proceed!
That's great! We are always learning! I'm glad this helped!
I, too, am a beginner at age 73. You ladies give me hope.😊
I have been accumulating fabric but haven't made a quilt yet. With your informative video, I think I will find a pattern for the four patch. I'm in my 70's and this is what I've been planning for my retirement. These videos are certainly a help. Thank you!
That’s great to hear! Thanks for watching!
This is the first time I am viewing your videos. I want to mirror what other people are saying . Your presentation is great. You don’t assume we know everything and your explanations are very clear . You talk in a calm voice, repeat information. As a new beginnner I thank you for your help.
Thank you so much Michelle! I appreciate that and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
I am a beginner to quilting at 75. I have really enjoyed your professional instructions and appreciate these time saver tips immensely!. Will be binge watching all your previous videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
I'm so glad that you're here and that you are enjoying the videos! Thanks for watching!
my mom would be so proud! 10 years too late but she was a wonderful quilter as you are! thank you! I am on it!!!!!
Aww thank you!! Good luck to you!!
Your explanations were organized, clear, and interesting. Thanks! I could understand exactly what to do because you didn’t take any chances on the viewer/listener forgetting. For an elderly person, this is just what I needed. Much appreciated!!!!😊
That’s so great to hear! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for this hack. I've been sewing for 50 years and have never tried this technique. While I am an experienced sewist and don't need such detail, the tutorial will be helpful to anyone, even the newst beginner. You gave step-by-step instruction without talking down or including any chatter. Good work!
Wonderful! Thank you for your kind words and for watching!
Woooooowwwwwww ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ this is the best tutorial ever seen since I started quilting, I used to cut one by one, but YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ you made my life easier. Thanks for sharing your talent
I just found your channel this morning and have watched 2 videos. I just had to jump on and tell you what a great "teacher" you are. Your instructions are very clear and thorough. I'm a fairly experienced quilter but I love watching quilting videos. Thanks for providing some great tutorials!
Oh thank you so much!!! That makes me happy to hear! We are always learning aren’t we!?
From a veteran 30+ yr school teacher, you nailed it! Very sequential, no extra useless chit chat, slow pace, good visuals, and clear voice! Nicely done!
This tutorial popped up after I finished watching something else, and I'm so glad it did. I've been quilting for over 20 years and never saw this method for a 4 patch before. you paced it si even a beginner could catch on. I really appreciate what you are doing for quilters.
Great tutorial! You have a great voice for this, no rushing, slow and understandable!!! Easy instructions, no long winded intro!!
Thank you so much!!! Glad you enjoyed it!!! Thanks for watching!
Can’t wait to try this method! Thank you for a very concise and easy to follow tutorial.😊👍🏼
This is a really great way to make a 4 patch, thank you! A tip I learned to make sure the pieces are actually cut thru the center was to measure 2-1/4" from the stitch line, that way those pesky pinked edge don't get in the way.
Great tip!!! Those edges are definitely pesky!!
Fabulous! I love learning these tricks as a new quilter.
Glad it was helpful!
@@sugarstitchesquiltco 😅
This is a great shortcut, thank you! I love the look of the four-patch, but lots of tiny squares to cut and sew is intimidating to a newbie; time for me to give this a go!
Me too!!! These go really quick too!

You do a wonderful job of explaining the techniques. My least favorite thing about making a quilt is cutting out the fabric. So glad to have your tutorial tips on cutting and sewing.
Thanks for being here Olivia! Sometimes cutting can get mundane! Have you tried an Accuquilt cutting system? bit.ly/3ZBObCe
@@sugarstitchesquiltco Thanks, I’ll check it out.
Do you use an Accuquilt? I'm new at quilting and would love to see you demonstrate cutting blocks and strips with this machine. I've watched their video but still confused how to lay the fabric. You explain everything much better than most and don't rush the process. So thankful you have a RUclips channel
Thank you so much for showing how to make those , i can't wait to do some for myself and again thank you and God Bless.
Im 72 and just now starting to try to learn how to guilt and anything else that I can learn how to do.
You are so welcome! We are always learning aren't we!? Thanks for being here!
Great teaching Thank you for a very good camera setting--close ups were awesome ! Make more videos, Please..
Thanks so much Phyllis! More coming!
Thank you. I just did a 4 patch baby quilt. I wish I'd seen your video before I started it. This will be very helpful for me. Thank you again.
It will be quick for you next time!! It's fun using a charm pack for the variety! I bet your baby quilt is adorable!
Wow❤🎉😊
Great Video! You did a great tutorial and your explanations and process of creating this 4 patch block were easy to follow. When I saw where this was going, I had my mouth hanging open--WOW.
Glad it was helpful! It’s such a quick and fun project!
Fantastic teacher. Self-taught, I'm 74, been quilting for a year and a half. Stayed away from these as I didn't want to drive myself crazy with the squares.
Thank you! You should try this method! Working with the larger pieces helps! Good luck!
Thank you for sharing this short cut. I will be using it frequently.
Good to hear! Thanks for watching!
I loved your directions! So explicit and you spoke so clearly. Perhaps saying ‘both’ sides rather than ‘either’ side would made it clearer for beginners.
Thank you for the excellence video lesson.
Good point, thanks!!
Wow. There is so much more to quilting than I ever knew.
There sure is! We are always learning!
I am a total beginner sewer and quilter. After watching this video, I think I will try it
You are so clever,you make this look so easy,you have such a perfect timing when you are teaching in showing ,explaining and then doing the actual sewing your an excellent teacher ,I have seen others who claim to be a teacher but they talk and move so fast it's hard to follow them, thankyou so very much !
Oh thank you so much for saying that! I enjoy this so much, so I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the video!
I love how gently you teach. Great way to make four patch
Glad you enjoy it!
Excellent video. Calm voice. No chitter chatter. Great outcome. Wish I had send this earlier. Thank you!
So glad I came across this tutorial. Now to find a quilt pattern.
Glad it was helpful! I want to make a full quilt with just these 4 patch blocks!
Love your videos! You have a gift for teaching for sure! I appreciate your clear speech, slow delivery, and close camera angles! Yay for SSQC!!
Wow, thank you! Thanks for watching!!
I agree with everyone on your teaching methods. Also noticed the quality in your filming. ❤❤❤
So clever, I’m not an experienced quilter at all but I want to make a quilt for my new granddaughter!
That’s awesome!!! Good luck!!
I am a seasoned quilter, and have many extra squares leftover from project. This was a very easy and helpful way to sew them up quickly into a lovely scrappy quilt. Thanks so much.
I feel so much smarter now. Thanks for sharing this tip. Very nice.
Happy to help! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your shortcuts. I appreciate you not speaking to fast and repeating what is important. Great tutorial!! 13:47
Thank you so much!
It is a perfect time to spin the seams with this 4 patch. Nice tutorial.
It sure is! Thanks for watching!
Starting Quilting at age 61, and your tutorial is just wonderful! You are a fantastic teacher that has given me the perfect starting place.
I like the process and might give it a try. I would have liked to have seen a layout with more blocks like a placemat. Thanks for having captioning.
You can certainly make anything you’d like with them!
Loved the idea. So easy and simple.
Thank you! 😊 Great for a quick project!
I hadn't seen this before, but I love the results! Thank you for a terrific tutorial!
You are so welcome!
Wow....best video I've seen. Thanks for getting to the point. No annoying chit chat. Can't wait to see more of your videos!!!!
I’m interested in making a set of six placemats and would love for you to do a tutorial on that. You did a great job on showing us how to use these squares and I think you would be great at teaching other techniques. Thanks, Vickie
Donna Jordan of Jordan in Fabrics has a RUclips channel. She’s an excellent teacher and she has placemat tutorials as well as Jennifer from Shabby Fabrics.
Great tutorial! You have a wonderful calming voice & clear instructions. You taught an old quilter a new trick!😊
Thank you so much! Glad you are here!
