    thanks for the video. I had no idea what I wanted to do with a layer cake I purchased to make a baby quilt and this is coming together so beautifully! I will for sure make more of these hourglass quilts!

    That turned out beautifully Kris! Thanks for sharing. And, thank you so much for showing the back of your table runner...I wish more people would show the backs of their quilts/runners because I think the backs are just as important as the fronts and the bindings are.

    • @SewtheDistance
      @SewtheDistance  11 месяцев назад +2

      You are so welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting!
      I love the backs, too. Sometimes I pick boring fabrics, but I love that black and white print. I will try to remember to show the backs more. Thank you! Great suggestion!

    I just received some layer cakes in the mail. Was planning on making your other layer cake pattern, but I like this one also and I have multiple cakes to choose from, thank you. I did cringe every time your hand moved until you closed your cutter. I have just recovered from a cut where my blade jumped my ruler.😊

    • @SewtheDistance
      @SewtheDistance  11 месяцев назад +2

      When I was editing the video and saw the blade, I cringed, too. That is so unlike me! I cut myself years ago and know better. I hope your recovery went well.
      I love that you are going to make this one! So much fun! Thank you for watching and sharing. ❤️

    I'm pretty new at this - but you made it look easy. I actually have 2 different layer cakes (I love to purchase fabric more than I like to sew) and this video really inspires me to make this quilt using them. Thank you, Thank you!

    Kris, it amazes me how you can take one layer cake and create a lovely, large cozy quilt or a table runner!

    This shows that you don't need a complicated pattern to make a beautiful quilt, you just need to choose the right fabric. And this is what you've done here. This fabric is lovely. Thanks for sharing the quilt and the runner. Both are stunning. ❤👍from Somerset UK

    Hello there…new sub here. I have recently gotten back into sewing and purchased a jelly roll and a layer cake. I had no clue as to what I would make from it, so I went onto RUclips, hoping to find a gentle soul and a good teacher for this beginner. Lol. I like what you did here and I think I’m going to give it a go…I know I’ll be referring to your video a couple times for reference, but that’s how I’m going to learn. Thank you for sharing this video! Cheers 😊

    • @SewtheDistance
      @SewtheDistance  9 месяцев назад +2

      Yay! Thank you for subbing and watching. I have many videos that will help you, and this is a great choice, too! Let me know if you have any questions. Happy to help! Glad you have picked up sewing again! ❤️

  • @barbarajefferysings
    @barbarajefferysings 10 месяцев назад +1

    This is such a cute little quilt! It would be fun to make it scrappier by combining two different HSTs for each hourglass block, ending up with 4 different fabrics.

    • @SewtheDistance
      @SewtheDistance  10 месяцев назад +1

    Kris, very colorful quilt. I currently have three quilt projects in the works. I am adding this one to my list simply because I haven't done an hour glass quilt. I make hourglass as part of larger blocks. This should be fun!! 🎶💐💖

    I love layer cakes (OK - I love precuts😄) and I really,like this particular layer cake! Not anywhere near my usual color box - which is a good thing as I’m trying to climb out of my usual colors!!! And this size is perfect for the ones my guild makes and donates to a children’s crisis center (kids and Moms - kids all the way up to teenagers!). And also,would be easy to size down! I’m fairly new to your channel so working my way through many of your videos! Ans honestly, I never even thought about pressing the diagonally sewn seams before cutting - works for me!! Thanks👍👍

    • @SewtheDistance

      So glad you are making this! ❤️ Thank you so much!
      I am not sure if you are on facebook or not, but I do have pictures of the finished quilt there and I also discuss/show it in my February update video. Here's a link to that one: ruclips.net/video/IBPemIcsYFI/видео.html
      I also have a blog on it. It is here: www.sewthedistance.com/blog/five-quilting-habits-2024-feburary-update
      I didn't add a border or sashing to this one, but it would be beautiful with those added, too! Great idea!
      I hope all of this information helps!

    I love your enthusiasm. The hourglass is a great block and went well with the colors you chose. I will not be trying it. I failed geometry and as my educational motto is find another way I have failed a few different ways. Yours is the 4th video I have watched this weekend. My head is spinning. 😵‍💫 I still enjoyed watching.

      @@SewtheDistance it’s just something about angles and convex and … that sets off fire alarms in my brain. I actually am 56 today. I have passed 3 algebras, trigonometry , 2 different business maths, with the exception of any parts that include geometry. Yes, it is possible. The geometry problems all result in a formula that can be used to continue. I homeschool half of the world and I really do believe in finding another way. I will keep trying the geometry. I will also keep watching all 4 of you RUclipsrs that main my brain spin. I enjoy your videos.

    Love how you always work the fabric patterns together. You have a great sense of design….. I envy your talent. At the end of this particular video you show a table runner with a to die for backing. Would you share what fabric this is please? The oversized black and white flower print. I would appreciate any information. Thank you!🥰

      The backing fabric is super super old. I think I bought it 15 years ago or so. I looked for it online using an image search and can't find it. I wish I could help! I only have a small scrap of it left now, too.

    Hi Kris. Do you have a video for the owl quilt that's over your right shoulder? I love owls. Midnight in the Garden is one of the few layer cakes that I really like all of the fabrics. I'm not a floral fan, but it's gorgeous. And made a gorgeous quilt.

      The owl quilt gets a lot of love from viewers. I really should do a tutorial. 😀 I don't have one, yet. It is made from an AccuQuilt die, so I am not sure if it would be something people would watch, especially since not everyone has an AccuQuilt.
