Is this the easiest quilt-as-you-go joining method ever? I think so! There is no hand sewing and no joining strips!
In this lesson we combine all the techniques that were covered in the previous tutorials to make a Big Fancy Star block.Accurate piecing with ¼ square triangles, the pin trick to align the seams and quilting techniques. We also further explore the QAYG with no sashing method, to join multiple blocks together with a horizontal seam.This method is perfect for any patchwork quilt that you would like to make QAYG. You can work with separate blocks or join the blocks into rows, columns, or sections b
Do you love the idea of quilt-as-you-go but don't want to add strips between each block. Then this direct joining technique is for you! There are 3 key points to remember to make this easy to achieve 1. Several blocks can be joined into a strip of manageable size before quilting 2. Cut the backing & wadding at least 1" larger than the piece you are quilting i.e. 9 1/2" square block requires minimum of 10 1/2" squares of backing & wadding 3. When quilting you leave at least a 1" margin unquilted around the edges of the piece I quilted this project as 3 long strips of 4 joined blocks When the quilting is finished it is time to trim up First trim the wadding back to to the edge of the block If you have cut the backing 1" larger than the block you will not need to trim it. In this photo I had been more generous and needed to trim the backing back to 1/2" along the edge that I would be joining to the next strip Join the fronts right sides together with a 1/4"seam. Ensure the wadding & backing are flipped out of the way. NB: Remember Key point 3 - If you have quilted to the edges of the block it is not possible to join the fronts in this way! View from the back while making 1/4" seam View from the back after pressing seam. With the edges of the backing still folded out of the way, smooth the wadding into place with one layer on top of the other. Carefully cut away excess wadding with scissors so that the edges of the wadding meet exactly. Finish the backing by smoothing one side flat over the wadding. Then with the edge folded under, position the other backing on top so that the folded edge is on top of the seam underneath. Use a ruler if you need. Pin fold in place and handstitch closed with invisible stitches. Note: Don't stitch through the wadding if you need to add another piece to this edge. This quilt and its borders were assembled using the direct joining technique. Back view of quilt showing machine quilting & handstitched joins.Please try this technique and vary it to suit your project and your skill level. I often go back and add some lines of quilting across the joins. Any edge that won't be joined to another can be quilted closer to the edge for example the binding edge of the borders in my photo. This quilt was a UFO for a long time because I chose a brushed cotton backing fabric that frayed badly and was very difficult to work with. On the other hand it is a lovely soft and snuggly finish so I am glad that I perservered.
In this tutorial:The Churn Dash and Ohio Star blocks are joined together using a QAYG technique that does not require sashing. This method is ideal for patchwork quilts where the blocks sit edge to edge, without the interruption of a sashing.We also take the quilting up a notch with some simple continuous straight-line quilting that anyone can achieve with their walking foot attached. The quilting is easy and manageable because with quilt as you go, you are working in small sections!The tutorial

A modern quilt pattern by Jenn George Burt. For me, the process of making a quilt can make the rest of life's troubles disappear - at least temporarily. An extra dose of happiness comes when I use a full rainbow of fabrics in the process! This modern quilt pattern is quick and easy to put together, and results in a show-stopper of a quilt that is as fun to look at as it is to create. Beginner friendly. No sashing or mitered corners required! The quilt design just gives the impression of long sashing strips and fancy mitered corners. The resulting quilt looks way more complicated that it really is (which is always a bonus in my book!). Skill Level: Confident Beginner Sizes included in this pattern: Wall/Baby (40" x 50"), Throw (60" x 70"), Full (80" x 90") Note: This is a digital product. No physical item will be mailed to you. You may print the pattern after download, if desired.

The lonestar is a beautiful traditional block - and with sashing added, it has a whole new look. While this can be pieced regularly, you know I love paper piecing. It makes those crisp points and lining up the sashing a breeze.This foundation paper pieced pattern makes a 30" block. It's perfect as the centre block for a quilt. Please note: As this is an older pattern, no colouring sheet is included.

Colorful Columns is designed to either be a grand wall hanging or to be used as a throw. There is no batting between the quilt top and backing, so it is not at all a puffy quilt, just two layers of premium weight Kona cotton fabrics. Triangles and other geometric shapes are appliqued and nestled among the various strips of color. Triangles that are three-dimensional break up the magenta sashing strips in between, giving this piece a three-dimensional look and breaking up the colors even more so that it just becomes an absolute kaleidoscope riot of color everywhere you look! Measures approximately 49”x72. Part of the quilt is hanging behind the railing so it appears shorter in the photos. All fabrics are 100% cotton. Machine wash gentle cycle, cold water, no bleach. Keep in mind this quilt is made of 100% cotton fabrics so it will arrive with some wrinkles and folds from being folded in shipping. A light press with plenty of steam from an iron or a professional steamer will relax the wrinkles and allow it to hang flat and look its best. From a smoke and pet free studio. This quilt is valued at $250.00.
How blocks are laid out greatly affects the appearance of the finished quilt. Some blocks form secondary patterns when they are side by side, creating another layer of visual interest. Some blocks …
