    I had to learn to give some of my quilts away (it took a therapist). And I’m getting older and running out of room. So my daughter’s college friends are getting married or establishing households so I have gifted them. We take a pic of three we think may work and let them choose. 4 so far, a new generation enjoying quilts. And my oldest friend and her mother that has severe dementia now but still remembers me with a smile when she touches the quilt. And my 3 high school forever friends and their spouses/significant others (separate quilts). And others. It has become fun and allows me to step outside my comfort zone with pattern and color.

    I give away practically every quilt I make. I just don’t need many myself. But I am excited that I’ll be able enjoy the last “favorite” quilt I made… it’s for my son and daughter-in-law’s in-law suite! Lol… it was beautiful to sleep under. 💚

    I have never made a quilt for myself. I have collected fabric to make several but I have only made quilts for family and friends kids and grandkids. I have a projects list of quilts to make, and cross stitch’s for friends listed for each month from now until December. I had a conversation with myself and realized I work a lot and I live alone with 2 kitties and I do not have anyone to cuddle with. I am not dating nor have anyone whom seems interested in me in that way.
    I was recently told by an old friend that I have no life because I am single. WOW!!! That really hurt!!! However, you have inspired me to start a quilt before the end of the year for myself. And, I started praying for someone to come into my life. You and your husband make an adorable couple!!! Your friends will love their quilt!! 💕

    Love it! I would never have thought of using the flannel inside with the minky backing. It really worked out. I am now rethinking the quilt I promised my brother and his wife.

  • @pattysherwood7091
    @pattysherwood7091 Год назад +1

    At age 68 now, it feels like I want easy peasy. For example, I loved your original large block of strips before cutting it up. Lazy me says, make big blocks of strip sets.
    You did such a nice job on this beautiful quilt. Thank you....I surprised myself and gave one of my quilts to a dear friend recently.

  • @cynthiajones1461
    @cynthiajones1461 Год назад +11

    Ok, this video finally convinced me. I'm going to make a lap throw quilt and use the flannel and minky and minky binding. If that goes as well as yours I may do all my future quilts that way. It just looks so wonderfully soft and drapy. I hope you make a quilt like this for yourself soon. And thank you for the picture!

    • @TheSewingChannel
      @TheSewingChannel  Год назад +2

      Yes...you need to do this....❣ If you look back in my videos I did a series on a 4 patch pink quilt that I made the same as this one...and it is my favorite...so I know this combo works!!!!!

    This quilt would be perfect for my sister. She recently redid her living room in grey and white and recently added area rugs that has some turquoise. Will have to think about doing one for her. It is beautiful!

    Most of the quilts I make are to give away for Hospice so I don't really have an attachment to them. However, quilts I've made for myself earlier are precious to me and would be tough to give away. Thankfully my children will get them when I go to glory ❤. I love this pattern, Tracy, really well done!!

    • @TheSewingChannel
      @TheSewingChannel  Год назад +1

      That is so awesome that you give your quilts to hospice… Such a great cause❣️ most of my quilts will also be handed down to my children and grandchildren eventually♥️

  • @RedDogMamaHD
    @RedDogMamaHD Год назад +20

    I love how you created such an amazing quilt so quickly. The use of the pelon vs the press-and-seal is such a better option. And minky binding is perfect!

    • @TheSewingChannel
      @TheSewingChannel  Год назад +4

      yes! the lightweight stretch interfacing was a game changer for needing to be quick with minky. The best part is....it stays in the quilt...no picking out press n seal.

  • @PhillipPresswood
    @PhillipPresswood Год назад +3

    It's one of your favorites because you know you have to give it away! I know their colors were gray/white but now was the time to use that hideous 70s floral print you had laying around... I know you do...

    • @TheSewingChannel
      @TheSewingChannel  Год назад +2

      Right!!!! And I used up a lot of what was just hanging around in my sewing room! Great way to use it all up🩶

    When you said you loved the quilt, I hollered, "But you have to give it away!" I know how you feel, though. While I have several to give away or sell, I have a few that are mine. The Scrap Berry quilt is mine! That one is too precious. I like this grey one. I'm going to have to go through my slowly growing stash to figure out what color I want to try.

    • @TheSewingChannel

    Amazon used to sell GET THIS: 20 fat quarters from Free Spirit for $22-24 dollars. Well, I bought SEVERAL. I received Anna Marie Horner's collection of beautiful desaturated colors. I made a quilt with them. Desaturated colors/monochromatic are soothing to the eye. Thanks for demonstrating this.

  • @susanmei9980
    @susanmei9980 Год назад +1

    Yep; it definitely makes a difference if you know ahead of time you will be giving a quilt away! Not allowing yourself to become too attached, to begin with, and thinking of what colors/theme/design they will appreciate, while you’re making it, as well as the delight of them receiving it, certainly makes it easier to part with once finished!
    But one you’re already attached to??? Shock/fight or flight/terror!!! 😱 I wd absolutely prefer making another to give as a gift!!!

    • @TheSewingChannel

    Haha! I’ve kept all the quilts I’ve made ( well only 5). I’m way too attached to them. I have however made quilts to give to someone but I bought the fabric for that intention! Makes a big difference when you give a quilt away! 😅 Don’t you feel like a Picasso or a Monet when asked to make/giveaway a masterpiece. Hubby is clearly proud of you and your accomplishments.

But those quilts are few and far between. Having said that, I have given many quilts away, especially for charity. (I love the sound of your machine.)

    Wonderful quick method and a great result. Like you, I get attached to my quilts and it's hard to part with them. I can't store them all, let alone use them all! So I am getting better at 'letting go.' I keep them for a year or two, and then I'm ready to send them out into the world.

    • @TheSewingChannel
      @TheSewingChannel  Год назад +1

      @@TheSewingChannel Do we really have to discuss the list or the UFO’s??? 🤣 I can’t help it, I love everything you turn out! So off I go on to another 16” x 16” x 4” clear bin. But hey they are marked & all in the works. Yes, I start a new one every time you turn out an adorable quilt! But believe or not I get to rotate because I always try to finish my top one (oldest one in the stack). This is my Tracy quilt organizer😁 and it works for me. Believe it or not some times I have two empty ones just happily waiting on Tracy yummy quilts. Can you believe it. My absolute most favorite that I continue to add to which I had to give it a larger bin is the solid white FMQ Sampler Quilt Blocks. I love that one so much, As soon as I get it put together. I am starting another one. But I am thinking this will be the new and improved Glenda stitching! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Beautiful colorway, great job. I only have 2 quilts I made, a QOV for my husband and a reject that my husband made no comment on when I showed him. The rest have been made for friends and family.

    I live in a 30 foot fifth wheel RV, I have no trouble giving up a quilt. Maybe if I live in a house I would have trouble, I don’t know.
    I have a large for scraps, once it’s full I have to use at least half for small projects. I have three 20 qt tub for current projects. I can’t get another project started until one of the three is done.
    I have a notebook for future planned projects.
