Sew Your Stash Series #17 - All about my 6" & 12 " Orphan Quilt Blocks

In this episode I show you several of my orphan blocks (leftover blocks) and a few things that I am doing with them. I talk about the 6“ and 12“ blocks in my books and how I interchange them in my Mix & Match Quilt Settings. Last week I showed you how to make my Spare Squares Block and I’m using it this week’s video in the 12“ size as an alternate block for the flower blocks in my book Farm Girl Vintage 2. I talk about how I cut blocks from my scrappy stash baskets, how I prepare my fabric for cutting, about starching, about ironing, which way I press seams and why, how and why I use my design boards and at the end of the video I sew a block that is for a quilt I’m making for Sophie:) I hope you enjoy!! #SewYourStashSeries​​ #Quilting Click on this link to watch my video about how I save my I cut and what sizes... and put them into my baskets: ​ You can see m
