BEGINNER CARPENTER STAR ~ Cutting and Organizing

Finally getting to my quilt! LOL! I'm showing step-by-step for beginners, how to cut and organize our fabrics for our scrappy Carpenter Star quilt;) Hope you enjoy:)

Join me for Truelove Family stories (which I have many, as a mother of 10 kids), Mothering Autism, with our Maxwell on our many fun car rides, and Free quilting class and sewing lessons! And as in a 'classroom' setting, my tutorials are approximately 1/2 hour+ long...So Join me in my home sewing room, out and about and trying to make all sorts of quilted goodies! Be aware ~ that I like to chat and probably repeat myself over and over, (and stutter sometimes), and if this annoys you, then view it elsewhere - but, if patient, you hopefully will learn a new method or technique and get an insight into a very large family and their crazy fun:)

And as always: Love From The Trueloves;)

I loved your phrase, " Controlled hoarding." I retire next year and have enough stash to last until I am 100.

Dear Jean, you always are so precise and organized and always make sure everyone is beautifully informed about each step along the way. Thank you 😘
Love to the Trueloves ❤

Wow I missed some of your quilts shows. Your room looks fabulous.

You do such a nice job on your tutorials, Jean. Your system for keeping pieces organized is brilliant for new quilters (and older, messy ones haha). Looking forward to watching your quilt come together. Thank you for taking all the time and trouble to make these for us, they are very appreciated.

Jean, I’m sorry I didn’t get to tell you sooner but it was a busy day. Liz at MSQC did a video on a wallhanging size carpenter’s square today! How ironic everybody is doing this pattern this week! She also talks about doing it in 3 different sizes with precuts. I’ll try to find the link and post it. 🌷🤗

There’s something to be said about controlled hoarding 😂 best line!❤

[GloriaHasberry]

Love your organization from the beginning of the process!

Jean, I do the same and place my pieces in a plastic baggie with painters tape. I am hopefully going to make this. I have soooo many 10 “ squares..

[shellcshells]

Love this tutorial! I made this in 5 inch squares about six months ago. I want to try it with your measurements!! Perfect size!!

Thank you for the kind comments. I so enjoy Jeans videos so wanted to share the quilt she inspired me to try. it just so happened my local quilt store is doing a class on kaleidoscope quilts so I picked up the book they are using.

Dear Jean, I just saw the dreadful news from Germany. I’m thinking of you and your brothers and sisters at this time. X

Hi Jean, i sent you an email just now. I'm stuck & need a little help. Thx so much!

Jean, I have not yet finished listening to this video as I have been here and there with painting our laundry room before new washing machine arrives sometime next week, I hope. But, another sad news came about the shooting in Hamburg, so I responded to that video ahead of this tutorial. It was so refreshing to watch this tutorial which was needed after a very hectic day preparing the laundry room for a new coat of paint. Thank you Jean, thinking of you and families. Love & hugs, Thelma

[cindywagner]
