The best squaring up video out here. I have been looking to see if there was ANYONE who did it correctly ....and all I could find were people squaring up using their borders as a guide. Sooo wrong! You nailed it! The only thing I would add is that a person can measure their diagonals prior to squaring to anticipate any problems and should measure their diagonals afterwards to confirm square. Most of my quilts go to show or competitions and "squared" is imperative. Thank you for showing everyone how to properly complete their quilt in prep for binding.
This was the most helpful method for squaring I have seen thus far. I'm new to quilting and my first was a bit difficult. I'll be squaring my second quilt this week. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this video. I have been despairing over a quilt that just came back from the long arm quilter with some uneven edges. I’ve watched many videos but yours is the first one that showed me how to preserve the points of my quilt. As anew quilter who has never put a binding on a quilt you have helped me very much
Always so informative! Just squared up a large lap last night. I used nine patches in the four corners of my borders and had quilted it with wavy lines about 1/4-1/2 apart. Because the waves were stitch across the bias (didn’t think about that) it actually distorted the nine patch. I had to do some creative squaring with a little tug and pull. I was praying it would be fine! And it came out adorable! Thank you for all your teachings!
I also go into the batting when squaring off. Nice to see a professional do the same if necessary. Appreciate all the patterns and information you give us
Krista, you're a genius! This not only square up a quilt block, but the whole quilt using your technique. I've been struggling a little with squaring up a Quilt Panel and this technique works for it too. Thanks!
Thank you so much for sharing this educational video! No one has been able to teach me how to do this in such a precise easy way. Thank you, thank you❣
Great tutorial as always. I love how your concise instructions make great quilt outcomes so doable. When I want a refresher or to make sure I'm doing something that will yield the best results, your blog/YT channel is always my first stop. Thank you!
I bought the black and white fabric today, to make Land L. I shared your site with my LQS owner too when she asked what I was going to make. Love your patterns. 🇦🇺
Hi Krista. Oh my goodness,new to quilting,have to be honest have watch different quilting videos and your videos are the winner. I have learnt soooo much already from your videos. Thanks a bunch till next video. 🪡🧵
I have been using this method since I watched this video. It has made a world of difference in my trimming of quilts Thank you for sharing I also have both of the fabric kits to this pattern
You are really making me want to get some more Jen Kingwell fabrics. That quilt pattern has been my favourite to make. I have " fudged" my sqaring up many times...🤭😉
That is called Lollipops and Licorice! Here is a link to that pattern www.kristamoser.com/product-page/lollipops-licorice-digital-download and here is a link to a kit for that quilt in her newest fabric collection www.kristamoser.com/product-page/lollipops-licorice-lookout-lollies-kit
Very helpful, thank you! Would love to see a video of sewing the binding on without losing your points!
I will try to do some more sewing videos!
This is very helpful! I definitely struggle with this.
I am so glad to hear this was helpful Karen :) A little practice and you'll be a pro!
I never considered that I could leave a little of the batting and backing to make a square corner. This was such a good video Krista. Thank you ❣ 😊
:) There is more than one way to make things "perfect" haha!

Some "creative squaring" is often what I do! Haha!

Once the binding is on, no one will be the wiser :)

Just came back to see this again. Very well done. Thank you for putting this out, good education piece.
Watching how easy you cut off the excess, I learned I really need a new blade in my rotary cutter LOL. Love the design!
Hahaha! Every time I change my blade I wonder why I waited so long to do it!
