We had so much fun making this video - I really hope you enjoy it too! The next video in this series will be all about designing the quilt top!

I so enjoy makers' channels, but I really enjoy and appreciate the pace of the lime green sofa. There is no rush to complete a quilt or other project just to put a video out and show a quick run down of start to finished piece in a oner. I love that it has taken you 3 years to finish a quilt you've been sharing with us. Slow making at its finest. 💗
THANKyou so much for saying this! I see so many channels where speed is seen as a virtue - but the process of making anything is what is so pleasing! I love seeing how things come together and making slow decisions and changing my mind ... all of that. - I'm going to pin your comment if you don't mind because this is such an important point to make! xxxxx
@@thelasthomelyhouse I whole heartedly AGREE. The process is akin to any journey worthwhile. We will reach the destination, but it's the journey there that is the most interesting part, especially in projects as they unfold. That's what is do unique and special about your channel. Kate. Thank you, Anna and all your featured family for being YOU.
That’s glorious! I went from zero to overwhelm as well. What great fun!
I agree, our quilts take time so do our decisions on how to complete them.
Enjoy your videos❤🙏 You take your time to have info sink in.😊
What a lovely relationship you two have together, mother-in-law daughter-in-law, not everyone has that, so special. I really enjoy listening to you two special ladies and today and can't wait to see how both quilts evolve.
Hello Kate and Anna! I love the way the tubes and blocks are coming along!❤
Anna seems to be a one in a million daughter inlaw...you are so lucky !
I don’t quilt but I so very much enjoy watching and listening to your channel while I crochet .💕💕
Enjoy your teaching. Have a great day! Annie from Washington State from the United States of America.❤
Hapi Mothers day to u Kate! 💓
I have fallen in love with you and your family and your life. I have to say it keeps me in the present moments!!! I have read some comments here are I "sew" I agree with the speed of the modern quilts made on utbe and todays time.... Kate you give simplicity back in the Joy of sewing!!! Im going to start that quilt your making for last three years and I will take just as long or longer. I love your creativity. I want to name it " The last homely house" I just love that name. One of my girl friends is going to start this journey with me.. Thank u Kate and all of you . Mona
How lovely to sew all day…. Sometimes I can do it but other times life gets in they way of sewing.
I absolutely love watching the two of you together 💖 I dearly miss my own mother-in-law, and Kate, you always remind me of her, you have similar ways and love of bright colors!! Looking forward to the finished projects!
i so enjoy watching you and Anna work on your quilt tops. So much color, its beautiful!! Good job to Anna!!!
I just love watching your videos and the music Anna picks is so perfect. You two have such a wonderful relationship.It's a joy to watch you interact. I've been watching you for about two years now and I love every video. I am happy when I am on the lime-green sofa. I'm sewing "Terry" blocks right now with my batiks and they are so beautiful. Thank you for your videos, they are the best.
I have enjoyed sitting on the LGS watching all of these videos❣️ Such fun watching Anna learn from you, Kate & you are so gracious as you allow her to make her own decisions ❤ And 600 blocks for your “terry scrappy” one…amazing & both quilts will be fabulous 🥰 Can’t wait to get to that video…I’m late to the party, so binge watch a good bit 😉
Absolutely Gorgeous Colours, it’s going to be such a beautiful quilt Anna, well done! How wonderful to have Kate right by your side, she’s a fantastic teacher! ❤ Looking forward to seeing your finished quilt. 👏👏 What a beautiful relationship you have with your Mum In Law, very special. 🥰 Will definitely be looking to buy some gorgeous Spoonflower fabrics! ❤❤❤❤❤ from Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺💐
Watching this on Mother’s Day in the US, and am feeling melancholy…
Anna, enjoy this time with your mother-in-law Kate!! It was SUCH a special day when MY MIL and I had a “sew-in” day together! It meant so much for the two of us to enjoy a passion we shared while sharing the day with each other.
Mom is gone now, and I look back at those times with love as I also now share this episode with both of you on such an appropriate day.
❤😌
Fun to watch others making decisions on layouts. This will be so fun to see how these quilts will finish up. I am currently tying a solids quilt for myself. I feel like they are so cozy. What a nice way to spend the day together….chatting about this, that and the other and just enjoying one another’s company and sewing!
Years ago I made a quilt for a school project... so there was a deadline, I tied it instead of quilting. After a couple of years of every day use, I noticed that the holes where the ties came through were getting large and I was worried about tearing the fabric. So I start quilting it on my lap (no frame, no hoop). The ties make for great basting. Think ties instead of safety pins. ... Now I tie every quilt instead of pin basting. As I quilt, in my own time, I still get to use the quilt and launder it as the ties hold everything together and I don't have to worry about pins falling out or rusting. My hardest decision is choosing a quilt pattern. First I quilted the boarder because it was loose and billowy, it bothered me whilst I slept. Then I quilted the pieced blocks... and finally it came to me to appliqué the solid blocks. There were a few tiny holes for daily use were I appliqued hearts over the holes. I think quilting helps the piecing hold together longer. 💖🌞🌵😷
Love watching you do your quilting projects. I wish I could see more of this. I watch it on RUclips on my phone So I don’t have the ability to watch it any other way. Just wanted to say how much i enjoy watching it with my great great grandson. He likes it too 😊❤
Great job Anna! And of course always great for you Kate. You two are so fun to watch.
Donna Jordan is amazing. Her narrative is a bit repetative, but she is such a good teacher. And that tied quilting video is what came to mind when I was thinking about how to quilt the hexie quilt I am currently hand sewing. It would be a Kate and Donna collab.
I love how you clipped in groups of ten. I also think you two have such a lovely bond. ❤
You’re very blessed to have a special bond as mother in law and daughter in law ❤. Can’t wait to see both quilts done ❤ I know they’re going to be beautiful ❤. It’s very special to have a quilting buddy 👭. I just Subscribed to your Channel 👍
6:53 the room with you both sewing ,all the colours from the fabric and curtains makes my heart happy. I have been sewing colorful hexagons outside today .
I like the design on the two top squares, of Ann's quilt.
It's always a good day at Kate's.
Both so different but both are going to be gorgeous when finished. Look forward to the finished quilts. 🐝🐝🇳🇿
Dear Kate and Anna, when you said "around the world" this gave me an Idea - what if people from all over the world on the lime green sofa sent you a piece of fabric which you'd use to make a lime green sofa quillt? 😊 I most certainly would love to contribute !
Would be a great idea and a great big quilt. Sharon from north West Wisconsin.
This video, with memories of your quilt exchange on mother's day is being shown in the US on our mother's day. Thank you.
Love when you and Anna get together to make your quilts. I just love your channel in general, Kate and am looking forward to The Last Homely House Garden which I’m going to subscribe to right now❤️
I'm new on the lime green couch. I've been catching up and just love the slow pace. It's fun to find the beginning video and then an end later. I watch for the leisure of it, or just listen as I sew. A humble nod to Anna's(sp) editing. I love the soft and soothing musical accompaniment. Very nice!
Oh you two make my heart happy 💕the way you work so calm, and caring about each other’s ideas it’s an inspiration Thankyou have fun x
Thank you for your hospitality this afternoon and for the beautiful music link. Its absolutely wonderful and very very clever. I love this channel and all its contents. Catch up again soon.
Love watching you and Anna you have so much fun
Oh Anna, I love the fabrics together.
What a great idea for my wonder clips that are infrequently used. Ten scrappy blocks per clip!
Anna I'm loving your quilt! Fun watching someone making their first quilt.
Kate I may have to make some of those blocks ❤
I am presently taking care of my Mama, who will be 95 tomorrow. She has had a stroke and requires constant care. When she sleeps, I sew. I have discovered a MS tutorial on making chicken pin cushions. It has become my therapy!
Lovely to see both of you again. A wonderful video of a sewing day. Marvellous. ❤
So lovely to sew along, slow stitching, while watching and listening to both of you. Cheers, Christine
What a beautiful way to spend a day sewing/quilting with a loved one. Love your blocks!
Your my blissfull escape..thank you Kate & Anna….just love the relationship you both have xxx
I have enjoyed watching the progress and thought process Anna of watching your quilt progressl Thank you.
so nice to see the friendship beteen the 2 of you!!!
anna are you finding it relaxing when i quilt i find it very relaxing
Oh Kate. I found your channel by happy chance a couple of weeks ago and I’m now addicted to The Last Homely House- Big time! The crafts, the cats, your family and especially you, fill me with absolute joy.
I’ve always loved to craft but have only ever dabbled in a small way with patchwork and quilting. Since joining you on the lime green sofa you’ve given me the confidence and motivation to have a go. I’ve started an EPP hexagon cushion/quilt (who knows how big it will get lol) I’ve ordered a Kaffe Fasset jelly roll and have plans for that and, once I’ve torn myself away from binging on your RUclips videos, I’m going to go and sort through my scraps to have a go at a string piecing block. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all you do and share.
If your map is still going, I’m in the Swansea valley in Wales. ❤️❤️
Love to see how your Terry quilt blocks are coming along. I intend to be working on my version over the next several years, so I will be sure to check in often to see how yours is stacking up. Thanks for expanding on Terry's work--it is genuinely helpful.
Delighted to see Arne and Carlos are trekking your way...
Maybe they are with you now....
Just watched the new garden video on new channel!!
Hi girls. Oh excited to see how this is going. Sorry am behind, Our daughter was quickly and unexpectedly diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer in April. It has been a busy whirllwind time. She is doing good Has 6 more chemo's. So 12 more weeks. But things are shrinking. God is good. Know he is beside us thru this journey we are on. But Anna love what you have done so far. Kate your a wonderful teacher. How lucky for Anna.
🙏💖
Praying for a complete healing in Jesus name.
Lovely dear Anna. I love new quilters joining our global "group". How fun it must be to watch her learn and accomplish beauty like that. Tea anyone? ❤ to al at LHH abd LGS!
it is a real joy to watch Anna grow in confidence with her quilting - she has the next two quilts taking shape in her head as she finishes this one - a true quilter! xxx
@@thelasthomelyhouse Dear Kate I had an idea...maybe you could do a quilt the colors of the lake areas around your house and if you make another walk about I would love to see the area. Your walks ere so calming and enjoyable. Been watching you from Idaho since the start and wish you a beautiful future. Thanks for sharing your time with all. ❤️ to all at LHH.
Thank you for your wonderful videos. You have inspired me to get back into quilting after a very long break. I love your relaxed approach to your crafting as I too have many sewing and knitting projects on the go and always felt like I had to "hurry up " and get them done. I'm now enjoying my sewing and quilting so much more and play your videos while i'm stitching. Many Thanks from Nova Scotia Canada
Very nice, I love the colors of both quilts. Just amazing how many colors can go in a quilt and it turns beautifully.
I really love when your sewing together, it makes me so happy and inspired 🥰
Many hands make light( and beautiful) work! 🪄✨️
It is so nice that you can sew together . I really miss having someone to sew with. I used to get so much more done when I did.
How wonderful you are able to spend a day sewing with your daughter in law. You are a very lucky woman! I love the relationship you share.
Two creative minds. Love watching all your creativity girls. ❤
2 very different but equally beautiful quilts ❤ 🇦🇺
Happy to learn this cool relationship between Mil n dil. Both of you shared a common interest. ❤🎉❤
Beautiful video & music. It was so peaceful watching u 2 ladies having a quilt along.
You know, I'm inspired to make a quilt in this style! It is so beautiful!!
Lynn here on Hubby's phone mines playing up 😏, Awwww Kate , I Just Love watching you and Anna , such a lovely bond between you to say your in-laws , you'd be forgiven for thinking she was your Daughter , I truly wish I'd have had that relationship with my Mother in law , I've been with my husband for over forty years and we still don't get along that good , it's such a shame don't you think ? Wooo I can't wait to see the result of Anna's quilt tho I do love the flowery sage green in the quilt , 😊Take Care you two , see you in the next one 🤗❤️👍XX
Beautiful day spent sewing together ❤
Watching from Calif & I too am making Terry’s color wash quilt. Altho you are working with 600 blocks mine is half that size as I put it together on my design board. I’m 75 & have made many many quilts over the years but I am very excited about this one made exclusively with Kaffe fabric. You’d love it Kate as it’s very bright of course. Great job Anna, I love your quilt & love watching the two of you work together. Very special! ❤
As a coincidence I was just drinking from my lime green Fiestaware coffee mug! I have been on a hexagon spree. I went from not quilting in 20 years to doing 500 hexies towards 2 quilts in the last month, all thanks to you, Kate! 🎉
I have like green fiesta ware, too…..and making hexi’s. Lol… not 500 but a good start nonetheless.
Where do you buy the hexagon dies?
You two are blessed to have each other! And we all are blessed to have you both! Happy Mother’s Day😘
Two beautiful ladies and two beautiful quilts! I spent today Mother's Day with my two beautiful daughters. They bought me a small iron and a thick mat to go with it plus some flowers. Anna has definitely got the sewing bug now. How fun you two love to sew . And teaching the next generation to sew is what we need more of. Was just talking to a friend about how we need to pass these things on. Loved your video and can't wait to see the final layouts!
Nice to see these projects coming together. I will be excited to see the gorgeous results.
I’m way behind, and late to this party. A beautiful process here. I love to hear Kate say “tubes”….. sounds like Bilbo when explaining why the dwarves are not good to eat. 😅😅😅❤❤
What a nice way to spend an afternoon. You've got her hooked! Nice job, Kate!!
It's so nice watching Anna's first quilt grow. All the stages and learning from this one quilt is amazing.
How lovely to watch you working together.thank you for sharing 😊
Inspiring. I quilt alone, your relationship looks like so much fun. It makes me a little jealous 😊. Happy quilting.
Enjoyed seeing this video. I will be looking for the finished projects. So happy to see Anna learning. I am a new quilter also.
Anna your quilt will be beautiful when finished..Kate I love your idea of doing the Terry blocks.. My scraps are like rabbits …just keep multiplying lol..
It is wonderful to have have someone to sew with and you both have a great relationship. Happy quilting ladies.
Wonderful to find you here on Sunday afternoon. It’s Mother’s Day here in the US. Anna’s quilt is going to be lovely. Kate, yours is gorgeous and bright! 💝💝💝
Thank you Anna and Kate. It was so much fun seeing the progress on your quilts. Kate 600 squares is phenomenal! Keep up the great work.
I love watching you working together on your individual projects! I’m always inspired to try something new. Thank you!
Love Anna’s quilt blocks. Spoon flower has lovely fabric. 💜I too, loved the birch quilt and started one of my own. Of course it will also be time before it’s completed. I did use blues instead of red background and although red is my favorite color, I thought to change things up the blue may reflect the branches or trunks in the sky. We will see how that works! 💖🥰 Patricia 86 💜
Thanks Kate and Anna ❤❤
Recently found you and Subscribed. Lovely and calm show to watch. Isn't that what quilting brings to us, a feeling of calm while creating things of beauty.
Yes! It's the ''always thinking of ways/ideas/designs'' that keeps us alive and fresh. My mind never stops creating fantastic ideas . . . yaaay! They don't always work, though! hahahahaha. x x x
Thank you, Kate and Anna, this video was just lovely. My husband died three weeks ago and as I watch this I find it to be very healing and uplifting. How I would love to be there with you both doing some scrapbooking or colouring in (sorry, I don't sew). Thanks again.
💐🌸🌺🌹 I'm so sorry for your loss.
@@ChooseForToday Thank you, Rachel.
oh - Lisa-Marie - how very sad - I am glad that Anna and I were able to take your mind off your troubles for a little while. I send you lots of healing love, Take care, Kate xxx
@The Last Homely House Thank you, Kate, you are very kind. Your channel will definitely be something I can watch to help me feel better as I grieve and heal. Sending you much love and a virtual hug from Sydney Australia. xxxooo
What a lovely daughter in law and mother in law creating time you and Anna are having. Lovely relationship you ladies have .
Putting that greener half blocks in a ring around the other blocks and maybe more than one ring would be really pretty.
Kate, I absolutely love your RUclips channel! You and I are kindred spirits as I love to have several quilts going on at the same time. It helps me to be more creative - I think! Love you and Anna! Happy Mother’s Day!
Happy Mother's Day, Kate! Loved watching you create your next quilts!
I have watched every video about Agneses quilt it is very beatiful
Thank you! xxx
Extremely joyful ur up & producing videos. You were missed, but wise to take time off for yourself, healing & rest or vacation. It’s necessary from to time and I pray you will continue to take time off for yourself. Ur viewers will be here. Happy Mother’s Day! (🇺🇸 in Virginia)
Anna and I have scaled back our posting schedule to once every two weeks - we have lots of video ideas in production so you should never be short of sewing from TLHH xxx
@@thelasthomelyhouse Good for the both of you. I subscribe to 16 channels, much scaled back. I just could not view all the channels I subscribed to. I think many post far to often. It overwhelmed me. I dropped all but the ones I enjoyed and added to my life the most. Bravo to the both of you!
So very nice how well you two get along. It is heart warming. I like you quilting plans too.😊
I would absolutely love to be sewing alongside you both - watching your videos is the next best thing! This quilty adventure by you two is fab! Xx
It was so nice to see you and Anna today. Anna is such a lovely person and I enjoy watching you interact with one another! Thank you for sharing❤
i love all your blocs ;it's amazing! bigTHANKSfrom Algeria!
I love that you and your daughter-in-law work so well together.
Beautiful relationship you guys have, I'm so sorry proud of you both, keep up your outstanding quilting, I love it,,,from south Africa
Wonderful video. I’ll go and watch the others. Thank you.
Happy mother's day too a wonderful mom Kate and Anna God bless the moms on the LGS. from Canada 🇨🇦
Thank Anna & Kate for such a lovely sewing day together. Hoping one day I can get my daughter to sew along with me. Great watching you both work together. So much inspiration just another rabbit hole of fun. Thanks
Mariaknits27 💃🏻💕🧵🧶🏠📚🙏🏻
How fun to see your pair of quilts materializing on the design board as you enjoy such a creative afternoon! Those are the best hours, aren't they? Anna, the colors on your quilt are turning out just so lovely. I can't wait to see it finished!
I so admire this lovely relationship (and Kate's love for her late mother). My only child, a daughter, who I had at 41 years hasn't contacted me for 8 years, and I haven't actually seen her in person for 9 years. Very hard but I am fortunate to have wonderful pets, friends, home, garden, and hobbies. So enjoy Kate's videos. Thank you for sharing all your various interests with us!
Thank you for letting me sit on the lime green sofa and knit on my blanket while you both sew on your quilt projects. Soft conversation, the sound of the machines and music make for a lovely interval this afternoon.
you are very welcome! xxx
