I love that an expert made a mistake too! So encouraging to me!! The snowman is sooo cute!!
Oh yes!...I don't know any quilter that never puts something together a little bit wrong. =)
I would like to THANK YOU sincerely for your post today. I had made a sample block for a quilt that I am working on and after I was feeling good about my accomplishment, I realized that 2 of the 1/2 square triangles are facing the wrong direction. I have been debating on taking it all apart and fixing it or just make the rest of the blocks the same as my sample block. No one else is going to know, so I decided to just leave it alone and just keep going. Thank you for the encouragement.🧵🪡📍
I actually really like the buttons going in this direction! Thanks for "keeping it real" for us! Mistakes happen, and sometimes, they are really no big deal!
I bet about 1/2 the time, you can let the mistake go and keep on sewing...sometimes they just aren't that important. =)
The best lesson I’ve learned sewing those tiny pieces, is that I still need to be exact with my 1/4” seams. When I first made tiny blocks, I thought I should make tinier seam allowances. Nope. Best results came with a 1/4” seam. So I dove in and made your snowman as you designed him, and he’s adorable!!!
So looking forward to this next block. Love these sew alongs and go back for reference if need be. I watched this through before starting. I see both versions of your snowman adorable and no one would ever care! Thanks for your honesty
I think it's so much fun to sew along with everyone!...I'm glad you are enjoying it as well. =)
Snowman is just too adorable, I actually like the buttons going the other directions 🙂
My daughter said it makes it look like he's wearing a little tie. =)
They look like tuxedo ruffles making him classy haha!
This is the first time I made the small pieces thank you so much for the tutorial.
You’re welcome 😊
This is one of the best patterns I have ever seen. Corey, you are genius.
Thank you so much Jeni!...I always hope people enjoy using my quilt patterns. =)
I was surprised it was already time for the snowman video! I decided to jump ahead and finished mine this morning. Then I saw your video had been posted! It scared me for a minute because my immediate thought was, "oh, no! I did the buttons upside-down!" I looked at my book and realized I had followed the pattern correctly afterall. Haha! Your snowman looks fine with your unintended pattern adjustments! It was such a fun block to make and went together perfectly. Thank you for this wonderful quilt pattern! I am sorry for such a long comment, but I do want to tell you your tips on stitch and flip corners during your `O Happy Day QAL were so helpful along with your recommendation of the June Taylor ruler and the pressing bar. I use those all the time and my accuracy has improved significantly. Thank you, Corey!
Ha!...your block is perfect. =) As you heard me say in the video, I debated about re-doing my block (and even went as far as starting to seam rip) but then just decided to leave it be. =)
I'm so happy some of the suggestions I've made in other quilt alongs have been helpful for you! You know I love my June Taylor ruler! And the pressing bar for those open seams really speeds things up!
Block #2 here I come! So cute
Yay!...have fun stitching it up!
Such a cute little guy. Go with the flow is my new motto🥰
That's a great motto to have. =)
It is adorable. It looks just as sweet.
Thanks so much!
I quilted a lot of snowmen. I like yours the best
Thanks so much David!
Ohhh this guy is so cute. Can't wait to put it together. You have the greatest ideas, Corey! Thank you for all you do. 💚❤️
You are so welcome! Have fun stitching it up!
I absolutely love snowmen and this block is adorable!
Thank you so much!
He is so cute❤
I think so too! =)
Love it! Either way works with the buttons. And I am so happy you have the turtles behind you! Bought the book and started but need to finish this one! Too much cuteness and my 🐿️ brain makes for a lot of UFOs this year.
That turtle quilt is such a fun one! =)
@@CorianderQuilts yes it is!
Yay!! Been waiting for block 2 and I love you gave information on a simpler block on those tiny blocks
I know not every quilt maker enjoys working with small pieces!
@@CorianderQuilts my clumsy fingers and small pieces....not a good combination ,) I am gonna give it a try tho.
I purchased this pattern in April. I am so excited to get started now.
I hope you enjoy sewing along!
I am so excited to get sewing along with you!
I'm happy to have you sewing along!
I leave those little hiccups in my blocks as well. Makes them unique 😊
Some mistakes really don't affect the block at all! =)
@@CorianderQuilts you're awesome!!
That Snowman is just the cutest 😊
Thank you!
Mr. Snowman looks great. No worries, we can all add a twist to patterns. Thanks Corey!
Absolutely!...you're so welcome. =)
Super cute 🥰
Thank you!
This is a cute block. I am always looking for blocks that would be cute as a small wall hanging, and this would be adorable as a wall hanging. I like the buttons going the “wrong” way. He looks like he is all dressed up for a holiday party wearing a tie and top hat.
My daughter said it looks like he is wearing a tie with the buttons going that way. =)
Love your snowman. Quilters (piecers?) choice on which way the star spins & the buttons go. I think it was Angela Walters who said, once is a mistake, more than once is a design choice. Or an unintended customization. Looks like it's going to be such a cozy cuddle-worthy quilt
Whichever way makes you happy!
I love the quilt on the right (your left) so much I bought the book! I think it’s adorable!
Yay! Thank you!
QUESTION. Hi Corey - could you film sewing those tiny blocks? Or do you have a tutorial on that? I am a visual learner and it would really help to see how it’s done. Thank you! I am loving this pattern and the Starberry fabrics!
It would be nice to see her actually sewing period.
This is such a cute block! I am still learning how to work with these small pieces. Do you have any special techniques that makes working with these small pieces easier?
Sad to see that this pattern is not available in the UK. Could you not do a pdf option so we can all join in on this beautiful quilt. 😊
It's available as a PDF. =) You are welcome to join in! =)
Very cute snowman.😊 I have a question about the letters you use to label our cut fabric pieces. Did you make them or purchase them?
If purchased do you sell them or where can they be purchased.
They are called Alphabitties and are a Fat Quarter Shop product: shrsl.com/4l29r
Mrs Cory I have googled and search for that turtle pattern could tag me in it so I could try and make it.ive seen it in your videos in the background thank you
The pattern is in my book Oh, Happy Day. It's linked in the description box below the video. =)
Love! Is a fat quarter of red sketch fabric enough to make the snowman block?
Yes, it would be. =)
Is this available as a pdf? The Etsy shop says you don’t post to Australia?
It is available as a PDF.
