Make a Baby Quilt - Part 4 - Fabric Selection & Assembly

[lolitah028]

What size it that table you are working on, it looks HUGE and I love the height.

[Caaseybabeey]

It looks very east put to get all the toold, may be expensive.. but im sure it ill be worth it:)

[purplerainsarah]

If I don't have the tool you used to do the binding - how would one go about doing the same without the tool, please?

Thanks :)

[jennydoan57]

@purplerainsarah I am working on a tutorial for this....watch for it!

[LaurellyThorpe]

This was a fantastic tutorial, I'm just off to make my first quilt for my friend's baby and I now feel like I can do it without too much of a struggle! :) How long did it take you to make this from start to finish?

Thanks

Laurelly

[SarahMSQC]

@LaurellyThorpe Not long at all. You could get it done in a day, if you wanted to! Good luck to you! You will love it!

[debalreynolds]

Where have I been? I love this site. Its well taught. Now I know where to go - I was stuck (afraid) and this was just what I needed to go again. THANK YOU so much!

[SarahMSQC]

[SarahMSQC]

[debra6590]

Jenny - your tutorial is inspiring - I may just start a quilt for my daughter x

[SarahMSQC]

@debra6590 Yay!! You will love it! Good luck!!

[mauigirl80876]

Because of your four-part video, I was able to make my first quilt, ever! I'm really pleased with the result. Looking forward to watching your other videos and working on more projects. Thank you!!!!

[SarahMSQC]

@mauigirl80876 Awesome!! Your first quilt is always so exciting!! Take pictures!! 

[efpmary]

I just love these lessons!

[SarahMSQC]

@efpmary Thank you!

[SuperEvansMommy]

AWESOME! I am going to use this tutorial to make my very first quilt :) Thanks

[SarahMSQC]

@SuperEvansMommy Sweet!! Good luck and have fun!

[carlac843]

This video was really helpful and I am excited to start my first quilt. I got a sewing machine for Chrsitmas and my G-ma used to make all kinds of things when we were kids so I am super excited to hoipefully follow inher footsteps.This video is sssssoooooo helpful and easy to follow

[SarahMSQC]

@carlac843 Awesome!! Congrats on the new machine. You will have so much fun sewing and quilting! Good luck!

[beaty1973]

Wonderfull! Amazing! And thanks!

[JaimseyGirl]

Love it, so adorable! Thanks alot. I've done some quilting, but I had never done binding before. Thanks so much!

Oh, and do you have an estimate for how much it would cost to have someone longarm machine quilt one of my quilts for me? Thanks again.

[SarahMSQC]

@JaimseyGirl Awesome that you are going to be brave and bind!! We have a machine quilting info page on our website. We charge by the square inch. You can just punch the measurements in and it will tell you the cost!! our website is missouri quiltco.com (without the spaces) Have a happy day!

[M32COL]

What a nasty habit you have... LOL licking your fingers all the time... LOL :)

[jennydoan57]

@M32COL Yes I appologize.....sorry....

[M32COL]

@jennydoan57 oh no need to apologize please, it is obvious you are a lady. I am the one who should be apologizing for being rude to you -I am sorry- Your videos are awesome. I´m looking for a quilting machine like the one you have but didn´t know it was SO EXPENSIVE. I´ve a charity -Foundation AVI- here in Colombia, we help children with HIV and I think making these quilts with family or special moments photos can be a good product to sell so we can have more resources, keep on the good work..

[toffee201212]

Thank you this really helped me as I am making a quilt for my sister and was very worried I would get it wrong as I am only 11 thank you again

[SarahMSQC]

@toffee201212 WOW!!! Awesome, it's great to hear from our young quilters!! Good luck and keep on quilting!! :)

[Hot2Trott2010]

Thank you so much!!! I have two grandchildren on the way and I really want to make them crib quilts but was very nervous since I have never made one before. Your video has shown ALL the steps from beginning to end. Thank you very, very much!!

[CassyDan]

This is amazing! Thank you so much for showing me EXACTLY what to do! I can't wait to get started on my first quilt. I'm really looking forward to it and have been doing a lot of research. Your series is by far the most helpful thing I've come across up to now. I don't have a quilting machine and have never tried it using a sewing machine, so this is the only part I'm not 100% confident with just yet.

Thanks again :)

[Pheniox121]

Want.

[debralarive]

Fabulous!!! What a great video series. You are a gifted teacher. I'm going to make my first quilts; one for each of my daughters for Christmas and your videos are tremendously helpful. I'm sure I'll refer back to these videos many times as I progress through the quilts. Thank you for your for your time and talent!

[IdaDreamable]

I will do baby quilt for my textile and this video is very helpful... thank you!! :)

[petmomful]

What kind of thread do you use to do the hand binding? Do you use a cotton, or all purpose thread, or what? Is one stronger than the other? Thanks

[Skarsnik007]

Your videos made it really straight forward and easy to follow each step as you have numbered each clip unlike others

[thricehybrid]

this was an excellent video! i recently started quilting myself, and this video helped me to know how to bind properly, as well as how to quilt the separate pieces together!

great 4 part video!

[MsBarb71]

This was an excellent video!!! It's perfect for beginners like me. Thank you very much for sharing.

[Elvisandme100]

Thank you so much. It is so much easier to understand when you see a video of a person doing the quilt. Much harder to follow in a book.

This is the best quilting video I have seen for beginners and I will try to make this quilt.

[sharpgenie]

Thank you, thank you for having a left handed instructer.

[Mslbd1]

Beautiful. I so enjoyed all of the tutorials. I will give it a try.

[RSPTnerd]

Thank you for helping me to finish my quilt! You guys have really made it possible for me to do and finish all my quilting! :D :D :D Thank you again!

[shirlshine1]

Awesome video!! Can't wait to start on my grandson's quilt! I really learned alot from MQC!! Looking forward to more tutorials!

[ElianaSlovedMom]

I have never quilt, but I can't wait to start! You are a very inspiring lady. I just got a sewing machine. I wanna make one of those for my baby girl. I hope I won't mess up. :)

[2000sadie]

I love the fact you are left handed!!!. My question is, what color of thread do you use when connecting the small squares together?

[grammiepammie2009]

Love your tutorials. I am a self taught quilter and am hooked on you.

[buffydogable]

I really enjoy your tutorials on quilting....I am truly hooked........so easy to follow ;)

[petrabuchanan]

this is the best quilting video i've watched, well explained

[Xenonalay]

that was fantastic! thank you so much for this video....I'm expecting my first in January and I would LOVE to make something like this while I wait for my lil' one! :D

[GGinflag65]

thank you..Great videos!



[ladybird1607]

Great video! I have never quilted before but watching your video was very useful and made quilting not as difficult as I had expected! I will put into practice what I have learnt from these videos. Many thanks.

[jetjodta]

Thanks for keeping it easy to follow and understand ! With 3 babies expected in the fam this year, this will be a big help

[nglenn26]

This is great!! I am left handed too, makes it easier for me

[MsSpicy27]

could you show us how to make a diaper stacker...please

[54candles]

great video....now i am on my way to quilting my new grandson one!!

[dawn777771]

Fantastic! I learned such a lot on your baby quilt videos. I wish you lived next door!

It would have helped if you could have gone a little slower but I guess I'll just have to watch them all over again until I've mastered it all.

You're a great teacher. Thanks for recording this.

[barbcee]

This was a great series of videos!

[SarahMSQC]

Thanks for your comments!

[Shiloh48187]

I thoroughly enjoyed your demonstrations Parts 1-4. Thank you. You are a great teacher.

[CROCHETINGGENIE]

This series of videos was really great. Very easy to understand. I am a beginner quilter. This has really helped me alot in my learning of quilting Thanks again.

[mugel76]

[crafter4life]

Excellent videos, I am addicted to all of them. I have learned soooo much from them and you are always close by. (:

[MultiCaro2011]

Can't wait to make one just like that! :) Your tutorials are easy to follow, you're my favorite quilting teacher :) Just love you!

[hazeldream1984]

Thank you for your videos, I love them all.

[sfellows68]

I really enjoyed watching your quilting series. I've never made a quilt before but am going to attempt to make my very first quilt for my daughter's college graduation. Your series is very informative and you make it look so easy. I can't wait to start.

[BarbyCurtis70]

Hello from SW Michigan! Just wanted you to know that I finished my 1st baby quilt couple of months ago, using an old Kenmore 1953 sewing machine.

Santa gave me a new sewing machine for Christmas that I just love! So, I am now hooked on quilting. And I couldn't have done it without you, Jenny! Thanks so much for the detailed videos.

[mnstk76]

I really enjoyed your videos, very informative!! You showed lots of good tips. I always have trouble with the binding on my quilts and your way looks so much easier..I am getting ready to make a baby quilt for my new grandbaby and am anxious to use your tips! Thanks for sharing!!!

[4234123]

This video taught me how to do the binding that I never knew how to do. Thanks you. pc8201

[jannswoodbox]

I love this site. MissourQuilt showed me so many good and easy ways to make a quilt. New at quilting so this site is awesome.

[CabbagePatchKidAmI]

Many have left comments saying they were inspired to make quilts from your videos, but they didn't come back to say if they finished it! So I'm here to say, your videos have single-handedly allowed me to try a dream of mine since I was young (but as a lefty everything was backwards to me so I was intimidated!). Late last night I completed my FIRST QUILT EVER (but NOT my last!) Some day I'm going to take a road trip & vist you all! Thank you SO MUCH for making my little dream COME TRUE! YIPPEE!!

[jennydoan57]

@CabbagePatchKidAmI Congratulations!! That is awesome and I so appreciate you telling me. It really can be addictive! We would love to see you anytime.  Maybe you should come to a retreat?....Thanks again!

[thegypsy1968]

Jenny all I can say is "Your The Best"...!!!

[yotcral66]

I've watched all three of your videos. You are great and you've made quilting seem very easy. I'm going to try and make my baby cousin a quilt. But your bracelets clanged through your video. Major distraction. But you're brilliant just the same.

[pandora25780]

awesome tutorial, the bias binding always looks so hard when reading it in books this video made it look much easier. I have been wanting to try a scalloped edge now i can make the bias binding without stressing about it. thank you so much!!!!! please keep the video's coming.

[grammissy]

I enjoy watching you make all these quilts. I am going to make one for my own. I have a nephew who is expecting, and this will be my first quilt... I hope

[MrsChonkeyMonkey]

I love the way you explain in detail! ty very much

[metallicawinter]

I will definitely be hunting down this binding tool, it's genius!

[37homecrafts]

I absolutely love your tutorials, sew much sew(sorry about the pun!!) that I am now hooked on quilting, I have now completed 2 baby quilts and planning to make another one!!!. You explain everything in detail and make it easy to watch and understand all the techniques you show us in your tutorials. Thank you so much.

Merry Christmas

[Icus1111]

Nagyon köszönöm! Nagyszerűen érthető a nyelvi nehézségek ellenére is. További jó munkát!

[myalisa78]

Wow that is awesome! how easy, and remarkable to think someone long ago figured that binding stuff out:)

[meggiehubert]

Jenny, I love your videos!! I was never able to get my binding quite right until I watched this tutorial. You are fabulous!

[deerosner]

Jenny! I love all of your videos and I actually re-watch many of them. Your videos are very educational and provide very clear instructions! Thank you.

- from a Canadian fan

[88bleubird]

love love love this! thank you! :D

[MrDrProfrawr]

I have been looking at several binding a quilt videos. Your video was the most helpful because it assumed the person making the quilt knew nothing. You were extremely clear. Now, I am ready to add the binding to my baby quilt. Thanks.

[dipo77]

Love it! thank u .....

[tejedoradearica]

espectacular, desde Chile........ saludos

[brenbrai84]

I loved this video. It was extremely informative. I learned a lot. Thank you

[MultiGrammi]

I am learning so much on you tube about quilting!  Can't wait to get my "sewing island" done so I can make up my first project!!!

[needinsight]

thank you so much for the video. I just love them

[marissadech]

Excellent tutorials! Just one comment. With all that saliva around don´t forget to wash the quilt before using it.

Thanks.

[cascades92]

loved this series!! thank u jenny :)

[louisa1084]

I am a complete newbie to quilting and I just made my first quilt. Love it. I'm so proud of myself!!! Thank for the tips.

[sewsweet08]

great work

i usually sew my binding from the underside first and top sew it down close to the edge on the front. i dont have to hand sew then.

i use that technique in my bags too

enjoyed your 4 videos

feeling inspired to make some more quilts

i havent done one for a while lol

please check out some ofmy quilts on my channel love to see if you like my work

ss08

[JenJen9038]

Love it!

[MooCow354]

do you have to attach the binding by hand? or is there a reason you do it in by hand? the quilt is amazing at the end!

[jennydoan57]

@MooCow354 I machine sew it on the front and then pull it around the back and hand stitch it down. I just think it looks best. If you want to attach it by machine I would machine sew it to the back and pull it to the front and machine top stitch it down. It really is personal preference. I'm glad you like the quilt! I think it is darling!

[JeannetteShoreland]

Outstanding series. Jenny is a natural teacher.

[swange2]

Great tutorial! Now I need to get the amazing binding tool!

[1mommybird]

After watching this tutorial, I made a quilt for my Grandson. I LOVED how easy it was by watching Jenny every step of the way. I have tried to learn how to quilt before, but it seemed way too complicating to me. Thank you Jenny, you took the fear out of quilting. You were able to show us beginners how to quilt, one step at a time. You made it look so easy, and I found out that it wasn't hard at all! I followed your step by step instructions and finished my Grandson's quilt! Time for another one!

[sisterquilt]

[apronlady56]

[SimonHardingMr]

Jenny,  you are one fantastic teacher. You are so clear and easy to understand. I have learned more from you than all the books I have read. Thank you for giving me the confidence to have a go at quilting. Long may you continue to make GREAT tutorials. Thanks once again.

[cathys311]
