Hey!!! I spy the sea horse fabric that's in another quilt of yours!!! Very unique!

[glynisreynolds]

Fabulous quilt 🥰 and well done for rescuing it 👏👏🇬🇧

I made a quilt like this during the 2010 snow storm that keep us in the house for 2 weeks. Foundation (muslin) and scraps. It is the warmest quilt I own. I even have several pieces of glow in the dark fabrics. Very, very cool. Managed to empty a huge basket of scraps!

That is a fun and pretty scrappy quilt! I bought a quilt today at the thrift store for $6. It is hand appliqued butterflys on white blocks with plain yellow blocks between. Each butterfly is a different fabric. It is more like a flimsy with no fill, and a yellow (sheet?) backing. They machine quilted around all the blocks.I think it is a crib or child's bed (smallish) quilt. I really like old quilts, too!

Kris, you have the best luck finding old quilts. This one’s a real gem!

[gail]

I enjoyed your detail description of this antique quilt. I'm a scrappy quilter but I don't enjoy scrappinest to this degree - just my opinion, we're all different.

[deloresrast]

I love this quilt!!! Thank you for sharing!!! Never heard of using gauze either.

[TheSewingChannel]

I am loving that black/pink rose backing!!!WOW!
Love the double gauze! I'm so on trend I guess LOL🤣(not really)lol
This quilt is AMAZING Kris! Well done!!

I think I found something amazing in this quilt! Time stamp 4:07 and 4:41, there are two bits of fabric that look like the seahorse fabric that is on the back of one of your other quilts. Am I seeing that right? 🤔

[desleybartlett]

Hi Kris have only found your channel recently but I am enjoying it immensely. I beat myself up when choosing colours for the quilts I make but since watching your series on lesson of a quilt I now know it is my choice and that is all that matters. Love your channel keep up the good work. Desley from Australia

I am currently making one like this using leaders and enders😊

I love this quilt! That gauze inside is interesting. You mentioned using double gauze. I would like a scrappy, lightweight quilt for a summer bedspread. Did you say there’s a tutorial for this quilt? I hope I can find.🍒🍒🍒

[donaldsteiner]

Wow, I think this is beautiful, , scrappy quilts are my favorite to buy and make. I enjoy all your finds. Thanks for sharing

Would the gauze make the quilt light enough to be a summer quilt? This is the second video that I have watched that had gauze in or on the back of a quilt. I still think of gauze as being used to make bandaging. I have not noticed it being offered for sale in the quilt shops or Walmart; however, I was not looking for it.

Mother made quilts without batting that were used in the summer. She machine quilted those summer quilts on her sewing machine. Mom always hand quilted her batted quilts. The summers are so hot anymore. Does anyone still make summer quilts?

Someone used up a lot of her/his left over scraps in that quilt. That may have been a necessary quilt. I have used old blankets inside my quilts when I could not afford new batting. My children used to fight over a quilt I made out of flannel scraps and an old wool blanket. Thank you for this video.

[gbyrd]

That is a really awesome quilt! I love the scrappy quilts!

[suestutzle]

I like the idea of the double gauze for batting. Where I live there is no need for a warm heavy quilt cover. A light weight gauze would be just the thing. Interesting.

[TheGuyWhoSews]

Hi Kris. Such a fun quilt. I thought it looked similar to the one that you did the tutorial on the other day. It's always fun to see what old quilts you find during your travels.

[sewbeitquilts]

Wow what a great quilt! I love that the maker just went for it! They put whatever fabric they had! I just love it!

[margm]

Kris😍 Love the quilt and your genuine enthusiasm. What a find that was. ❤️🇦🇺
