Trip Around The World Quilt Tutorial and a Chat

Patrons get access to over 100 posts and videos here

Back in May 2019 I got a quilt commission to make this trip around the world quilt for Marie.
I have delayed posting the videos because i wanted her to be the first person to see it - she has it now and really likes it - I will post the different stages of making this quilt here

I'm amazed anyone has the audacity to give a thumbs down! Those are sad people who could never be happy in any situation. You, my dear, are AMAZING!!!

Sitting here with my second breakfast/brunch/lunch... Tea and toast, and watching your great happiness, as you put this beautiful quilt together. I learn so much from you... about making things, and about joy.

OOOhhhh Kate!
I have been collecting the Kaffe fabric to make this quilt.
Loved it from the moment you made it!
I have rewatched these episodes so MANY times!
Thankyou again and again for your delightful company and inspiration....

Wow! Love the fabric and thanks Kate for explaining so well.

I love how you can chose a common design that we know and then change it around to reflect your own style and tastes. Hanging in a collection of quilts in a quilt show we could all recognize the one you have made. Amazing !

Kate, I think I could tell what crossed your mind the first time you were about to say "one direction", and speaking quite honestly, I would not have minded a little peek o' Harry at all! Hahaha! I look foward to this series, and wish you a happy Wimbledon fortnight!

Kaffe is great--I have a lot of his fabric, too. He should be paying you for your wonderful words about his fabrics.

I just want to say you have inspired me, I have just ordered the fabric to make this quilt, it will be my first "pieced project". I have been making rag quilts for several years now, but wanted to jump over into the type of quilting my mother did, you have given me that push. I have also become acquainted with the lovely world of Kaffe Fassett fabrics, and I am obsessed! So glad I found your channnel.

Love your excitement. Only quilters know that feeling when the right fabric and pattern comes together. The colors are beautiful. Thank you for taking us on this journey.

I'm driving in traffic it's a been a very stressful day and the most calming thing I can think of is listening to your voice thank you for being awesome Kate have a great day

[Hiker_who_Sews]

I'm betting the recipient of this quilt is over the moon! Oh, and Kate, I forgot to congratulate you on 10, 000 subscribers!

Oh Kate I love Kaffe fabric. When I order fabric and it arrives I get just beside myself. Thanks for sharing🥰

I just love this technique. I make adult bibs with the bottom out of 5 inch squares. This will save me so much time. You are the best teacher.

The perfectly weathered tree house makes the best backdrop for your beautiful creations! Perfect. xxx

Just made Trip Around the World for my niece Haily, an ER nurse in Ottawa, who last year travelled around the world with her partner, Eli. Your Youtube explanations and pattern method worked wonderfully - purple mauve batiks, yellow for daffodils and green for spring. Thank you!

OHH, just want to bury my face in all that color. Glorious. That picture at the end needs to be in one of your next books, OR, you could sell the PDF in your store so we can take it to our printers and make a poster for our sewing rooms! :)

I had to laugh because you look like a kid in a candy shop with that smile on your face. 😄 The fabrics are scrumptious though. This will get my creative juices flowing because Kaffe Fassett and Brandon Mably are coming to the Chicago area in October and I was fortunate enough to get into a workshop with them. I am so excited!

Hello Kate - oh opening jelly rolls are totally a wonderful addiction for quilters. It’s great fun. So exciting. It’s like opening that first big box of crayons. You have gorgeous colours. Look forward to see the progress. 😘😘😘🙋🏻

[mollysmith]

What a treat to get to watch your quilt come together. The sneak peeks of it in the beginning were stunning, I have to replay to see them again. You've given me a great idea of a hangerful of jelly roll strips that I cut intending to make a queen size Jelly Roll Race and then lost the mojo. There is at least the equivalent of three jelly rolls in it that I cut from my stash. Thank you (and Norma!) Kate! Looking forward to the next installment.
