So wonderful to see God's Word in that quilt! A warm, fuzzy collage...Well done Tracy!
Yes! I too love that God's Word is ALL over this quilt. It is so cozy too.❤️
Tracy you have such nice videos. I love watching you. I want to say what a clever idea of putting the command hooks on your rulers! They look much more easier to handle. I bought some to put on mine. God Bless you and your family.
My very first quilt was 100” square and every focal fabric was a memory jog of the favourite things for my sister and her husband. I called it Making Memories and when I gave it to them the other week (we won’t be together for Xmas) they were blown away! They loved it! I also learned so much making it! 🌻
I love this quilt! I love the inspirational words, and the fact that your husband loves them!! Thank you for this awesome tutorial!!
We never need to apologize for the Bible 🙏
Right!!!
This quilt is absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing this. I can't wait to try one myself.
Ok! This is my fav video so far!! Thank you for saying what you are thinking out loud! That is inspirational; i can almost believe I can do it when I hear you talk it through! You are truly wonderful, Tracy!! So many good ideas! I will have to watch this over and over!! I love minky so much and your hints are great!! The overlapping join is so good!! This quilt will be a heirloom in your family!! Your energy is awesome!! Your problem solving skills are equally awesome!! I love your Juki!!😮 your big meander is brilliant!!
Great masculine quilt! I know he will love it! I hope you do get him on camera when he opens it! I love the way you accept that every quilt does not have to be ‘perfect’! That we sometimes have little blemishes in our work. That little piece of encouraging advice saved me from getting frustrated with myself. 😊❤ You keep it real, and I love your videos!! 😊❤
I hope I get him on camera too...will be fun for sure🎉
Watching you quilt is making me want to quilt. Lord know I do not need another hobby. As we get older we need warm blankets ( " s" ) plural on the bed to keep warm. So I may have to make a quilt. Ugh I don't need another hobby.
This is a great idea. My husband just was baptized this spring. He’d love this!
Awe...yes...this would make a great gift for him❤️
I’m collecting flannel shirts too 👍 I haven’t got enough that will ‘work’ together yet but I’m looking forward to getting it started 😃 Your quilt looks wonderful and I’m sure that your husband is thrilled with his new quilt 🥰 And you did a marvellous job actually quilting it on your sewing machine 👏👍 Not many people would have been brave enough to do that, but now we all know it’s possible 🤩👏 Thanks for the tip about stabilising the flannel 👏👏🇬🇧
I like the affirmation blocks switched up on their sides. This is a very nice quilt, I'm sure he will love it. Thanks for the tips about piecing different types of flannel.
Thanks Di❣️ It's going to take all I have not to give it to him early LOL🤣
Hi Di!
Why don’t you do longarm quilting since you make so many
What more can someone ask for? Full of comfort and warmth to wrap up with, filled with encouragement and wisdom, and made with love! LOVE THIS❤
What a beautiful quilt. God’s word and minky wrapping you up. Couldn’t think of anything better. You rock!
AMAZING! 👏🏻👏🏻 You did a fabulous job on this beautiful quilt. I'm sure your husband will love it! Thank you for sharing the video (and tips) with such incredible details....you got a thorough workout for sure. Merry Christmas to you and your family!💕
Thank you for the encouraging comment. Merry Christmas to you too❣️
I’m in the process of making a memory quilt for someone from her mother in laws clothing. Having to stabilize the fabric is a long process so if I ever do it again it will be for someone special like my husband❤ It’s sweet of you to make that for yours. It’s a labor of love for sure!
It is a long process for sure❣️ I can't wait to give it to my hubby❤️
So love your patterns and how you explain how to make them. Thank you, love your pool noodle quilting❤ only one problem I watch from England so what is minky? 😂
Even if your husband can see how the sections are put together, he's not going to care. All that's going to matter to him is that you love him so much that you made a gift designed especially for him and him alone. Well done!
Nice idea to do a flannel. Just an idea, 1or 2 extra shirts just for your strips. Unsure but might help with matching with the blocks.
Wonderful quilt. Thrifting the shirts? Brilliant!
Girl, you work so hard to get your quilts done, and they are all beautiful! Tell your hubby that you deserve a longarm for Christmas! 😊
Great video Traci, I use mostly men’s cotton shirts from the thrift store.❤️
You do such good work! Thank you for sharing your experience with us! I am sure that your husband will love his quilt. It looks so cozy!
Thank you for the kind words ❤️ It is super cozy...yes..he will love it❣️
Love the verses but prefer all them going one direction.
That is one beautiful quilt! Your husband will love it!
Thank you so much Christine! I can't wait to give it him❤️
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING Quilt I’m Excited to go thrift store shopping to find flannel shirts for this project…. Thank you so Very Much
I love your quilt! ❤Great tips for the binding clips, minky backing, and flannel “batting”. Thanks!!!!
I have collected several Plaid shirts from the thrift store. Thank goodness they are cotton fabric and not flannel! One day I will make them into a quilt. Last summer I did make a queen-size flannel quilt for someone that had 1,670 two inch squares. I dealt with the "wiggly" flannel by heavily starching the fabric.
Such a beautiful masculine quilt ❤. I love the idea of the thrifted flannel shirts, and the warm minky backing! I'm Inspired now to make one for my husband 😊. Thank you so so much for your tutorials . I love all of your tips and tricks , and learned so much from you.❤
Hey Tracy that is awesome
For a man
I love your thoroughness on constant trimming. I only recently realized that doing this keeps my quilt completely square at the end. Each block needs to be as perfect as I can get it. Perfection isn’t guaranteed-it is just a goal.
I always say that..."As perfect as it can be"❣️ So true for sure.
I love your quilt 😊👍🏻👍🏻🪡🧵 how did you due the writing on the fabric ?
Thank you. I "free motion quilted" it on. It's like writing in cursive with thread✅
Thanks for tutorial. Will definitely try your clip “necklace.”
Did you use 1/4 inch seams or 1/2 inch seam? I love how you included the Word of God in your quilt! ❤
My boss wants me to make quilts out of his flannel shirts and his dad's. I have been avoiding it. I just don't sew flannel. It's good to know to use a stabilizer.
Did someone suggest cutting minky on the reverse side with an exacto type knife/ cutter and ruler, light touch to only separate the base and not cut into the fuzz? I saw this done but have not tried it yet.
That would drive me crazy if I had part of them going sideways or some thing find a flannel at the store that you could put a red one more roll around them so that they would be like a Ladis. Maybe that would do it make them pop
I am so glad you showed this video. I am making a flannel shirt quilt for my grandson and your idea of adding to add interfacing was the piece I missed. so I added it at the end and wow it was a big help . thanks
I can’t wait to try the elastic and clips. The drag is always a problem. Thank you
You have so many great ideas. Thank you for sharing. I love that your ideas are simple easy to make and work.
oh my gosh I have bought cotton flannel to use as batting to give it some warmth with out making it to thick, but mostly cause (cotton batting is so expensive)
im thinking of doing something like this for my husband with some rock t shirts from shows he attended and no longer fit, but he refuses to part with them because of the memories associated to those shows. so i think this might be what im going to do... thanks for the idea
Using your home made (elastic and binder clips) device made a big difference for you. I've got to make myself one.
Yes...it totally made a difference Arvetta✅ You definitely need one...I was always getting caught up in the front of my machine🤷🏻♀️
Love how your mind works! Soooo creative! 🥰
I'm pretty sure the shifty will come out in the wash! I've found that a lot of things I miss when I quilt disappear after washing. Or maybe it's old age and I just forget about the little goof ups by the time the quilt is dried. Don't you love that you can turn that Juki around and free motion quilt with it. Thanks for sharing another great tutorial.
You are absolutely right about the shifty going away after washing and drying✅ It just came out of the dryer and it looks even better than before I washed it❤️
What/how are you not running out of bobbin thread? What are you using? I’m an advanced beginner, kind of, and can’t afford to take any of my quilts I’ll be making to a long arm so will be doing free motion quilting, kind of. I know it won’t look as nice as yours but I also will not be making any as big as yours. Beautiful beautiful quilt, by the way. I really like how you made it your own by not lining up rows and turning some of the pieces in your blocks. Thank you bunches for your tutorials. By watching many tutorials I find that my quilts don’t have to be perfect and I love it. I do have to tell you, back to front, front to back, I hate binding! No matter how much I pin, I always miss somewhere in more than one place. And my corners always seem so bulky, when I turn them. Great tutorials though!
Oh I do run out of bobbin thread....I just edit that part out🙃
Another helper with lap drag I was told to try and it helped is put a pillow, I use a guest bed pillow, and it will be even better with your little secrete necklace. I do tuck the pillow under the lip of the table while it’s in my lap . I do quilting on a HQ Capri 18 and my domestic Pfaff. The pillow helped a lot. Off to make my quilting necklace.❤
Thanks for the idea Valarie❣️
Just a fun comment: I just watched a good quilting tutorial, but I found myself saying, “Enough talking already!” 🧡💚
Love that!
I love lining a quilt with flannel, even without a minky back they have a wonderful weight. Maybe living in Texas has something to do with it - we don't have much need for heavy quilts!
I agree...it gives a wonderful "drape" to the quilt❤️
I know this comment is late I've been watching this and I wanted to ask do you think blue jeans would be a good backing and good frame😊 with the flannel
Jeans may be too heavy....something to consider❤️
Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing! What was your stitch length for the flannel and Minky hubby quilt?
I used 2.5 ✅
This is gorgeous and so special Tracy.
I had to go and order from Walmart the verses !! Wonderful Idea! Game changer stabilizing the flannel!! I am inspired.
Yay🎉❤️
The quilt looks great, my 1st time see you put together a quilt from flannel shirts. My guess is the minky is the filler. If that's right, this should be the first time I have seen a quilt put together by you. My mom would have shipped the quilt out to have the filler put in it.
It's great to see your video. I had to touch like button instead of smashing it.
Hi there Ernest!!! Great to see you in the comments❣️
You went thrifting without me!?! 😮 love your channel! ❤😊
🙃 Thank you for supporting my channel❤️
Love your quilt. It would also look nice if you tied it. Have you ever tied Minky? If not, what do you think?He's gonna love it!💜💜💜
Oh yes...I totally thought of tying this quilt. I have other tutorials on my channel where I tie the minky✅ I love having the alternative of tying it❤️
I am going to use that way to do my binding from now on!
Love it Tracy you are so creative. Your husband will love it. Tc Suzanne
Thanks so much 😊
Add a dark sashing and fill in spots.....
Again, you are AWESOME! LOVE your tutorials!
Thank you so much!❤️ You are very kind❣️
You are a very good teacher I'm so glad i found your channel
love you free motion work, does your Juki have stitch regulation on it? My free motion is so irregular
No stitch regulation...takes much practice to coordinate your hand movement and foot pedal✅
Domestic machine quilting has it's place, However this quilt would have MOST definitely benefited from a longarm quilter. Please don't be afraid of using a longarm quilters expertise. You can look for a local quilter, and benefit yourself and the quilter.The quilt will come out straight on all sides and look very good. Bind it yourself for some savings. Use of shirt material is great and the word fabric gave the project a real boost. This made a great man's gift!
Love this idea! I had a denim quilt pattern-from Kristin #p@Scrap Fabric Love-in progress using shirting.
Agreed! Trimming and pressing-at each stage-is something I learned in garment making. It absolutely applies to quilting as well. I’ve seen far too many videos and FB postings of quilt blocks and flimsies that would have benefitted by this process. And, no, I don’t consider finger pressing an acceptable substitute for pressing with an iron. Just saying!
Thanks, and stay well!

Are you using the same machine for piecing and free motion? Thanks Tracy.
Yes❣️
I like thrifting scrubs for quilts. Lots of novelty prints.
Thank you for the idea❤️
In my experience liquid starch is just as good for stabilizing fabrics like flannel and t-shirts. It, then, washes out of the quilt, leaving no extra stiffness or bulk behind!
I am working on such a quilt for my beloved mother-in-law. My FIL passed away last year. I don’t remember it. I was in hospital recovering from brain surgery. After rehabbed I am finally getting back into sewing. MIL gave all of flannel shirts and bottoms. I’m using them to make her a quilt I’m cutting as big as a block as I can. I will quilt in the valley. I did buy a plain by the yards flannel for the backing and sashing and any where else that needs it.
P.S. I got a Juki for my birthday!
Woo hoo🎉💥🎉YAY❣️
Iove my Juki❤❤❤❤
Did I miss what kind of interfacing was used as a stabilizer? I think she said it was stretchy.
It's at the beginning part of the video✅
You know what I love abt this quilt? It’s so satisfying to see you make the WHOLE THING in just ONE HOUR! 😉 🤣
So inspiring!!! (If only! 😆 😝)
Yes, I think laying it face down was a good idea bc hvg a stretchy front and back, it wd hv been a nightmare to keep it as straight as you did, if it was the other way around. Good call!!!
Now your gonna be like the cat that ate the canary, until you give it to him. 😁
Yes...only if it could all happen for real in 1 whole hour LOL🤣 Thank you for the validation of my decision on the way I layered it🩷. It's going to be so hard to wait til' Christmas...I just washed and dried it and it came out even better...can't wait❣️
Thank you for this tutorial. When i saw you sitting at the end of your machine, i thought BRILLIANT!!! Love the scriptures
I'm sitting here in a cold room (heated, but I'm still cold) watching you meander through the top and thinking how nice to climb underneath. I've only done a baby quilt with minky and said never again. But yours looks amazing and I love all the scriptures on there. And the tip with elastic and binder clips around the neck, priceless. Thanks.
Love this Tracy!💕🧵
You are MUCH younger than me 😅 my days on the floor are long gone!
You gave many helpful tips I can use for my projects. Thanks
Using stabilizers on fabrics does wonders for piecework, from t-shirts to velvet and other non-cotton fabrics to make crazy quilts or memory quilts. I like to use on hand embrodered squares that will part of the quilt, keeps the hand stitching from unraveling after lots of use.
I love this quilt! I just bought some fabric with God's word sections similar to these and I am going to attempt to make a quilt similar to this one. Thank you for the inspiration.
I like the idea of haven the words in all directions, so that way there is no right or wrong direction on the quilt. Just my honest opinion. ❤ loven the quilt.
Thank you Chrissy❣️
Love it! He will too! I have definitely used some old flannel shirts for quilt squares. A bit of work to cut them up, but with the price of fabric, definitely a save. I have several in my closet but cannot bring myself to turn them into a quilt yet because I love wearing them! A flannel kina gal, I guess. Thanks!
I so enjoyed watching you make that quilt! Gonna try to do something similar with scripture. I will say, I started quilting when I was 19 years old (I’m 70 now)doing everything by hand. I didn’t have a sewing machine in those days. I have since evolved to using a sewing machine and I get so much more done. Thank you for all of the tips on sewing Minky for backing and binding. It’s giving me confidence to try those techniques. God bless and happy sewing.
I often use the "Sleep On It Method." This is a strategy I used when working on my MAT degree and took it into my classes when I began teaching. It works.
🎶💐💖
First, I'm completely inspired by the scrappy flannel and I have the same inspirational fabric! Second, I could just hug you for the free motion necklace idea and will try that in a few days ❤️
I made a square rag quilt out of old jeans and flannel shirts. Also, pigs flying, s'mores, and camping flannel fabric were used. Some items from thrift stores. I have that very material of quotes to use for DIL for her t shirt quilt to be completed by her birthday next year.
Lovely job Tracy, as always. I’m working on a quilt for my grandson made from his baby clothes - they needed stabilise first for sure. I’m using your idea of random sized blocks to offset the joins. Thanks for all your sew fabulous ideas Vx
I really like it x Keep going x x x
I made my hubby a flannel patchwork quilt from his old flannels. Backed it with thick fleece. He loves it. Wish i had thought to use stabilizer. Thanks! When i make me one, i will do this.
I just love plaids, now I have to hurry and finish up the 2 quilts for Christmas and start one for my husband. Thank you for the inspiration.
Your husband will love his quilt. Thanks for sharing your process and keeping me company while I made chicken soup. ❤
Does spray starch help with stabilizing?
Yes. Helps a lot❣️
Great idea about the words. I'm making my husband a blue jean quilt and I could use these in a few places.
Love the flannel shirts, and I th8nk you’ve made me brave enough to try a minky backing.
I like the idea of the scripture squares. As always your quilt looks amazing. With the cost of fabric these days shopping at thrift stores is a great resource.
This is a great quilt!! Your husband is going to be so happy to get it. You did a beautiful job and I enjoyed watching this quilt come together. I just love shirt quilts and flannel. It's going to be such a soft and snuggly quilt.
What a great gift so lovely
Love this!
Share a picture of Christmas!
I will....if I can get it on video✅
Beautiful work. ❤
How did you choose what color thread to use when quilting?
Very easy....haha....it's the only grey I had on hand LOL🤣
Enjoyed the video. I make my quilt backs this way most of the time. Sometimes I get a front I get to play with. Thanks for all you teach us.
Thanks for watching and supporting my channel. I appreciate it so much❤️
Thank you for all the wonderful tricks and advice for creating this beautiful quilt. I have made tshirt quilts this way, but never thought about mixing and matching flannel pieces. Great info. It is harder to make masculine quilts. This is so useful.
That's a really beautiful quilt and soon big! You did a wonderful job. I'm sure he will be really pleased with it and enjoy it for years to come.😊
