I liked how you show the steps with photos and an explanation. Yes, you got going and I did miss those few extra phots. No harm no foul. I can figure it out. I’m on my very first quilt. I am using embroidery thread to the down my layers. I’m not sure how to fit the bill under the pressure foot. I added some spray glue and used earth pins. I need to invest in those curved ones. I found enough ( luckily) looking in every jar,drawer,and craft box. The clips are on my list as well. I had almost enough material. I did have to start over once to add new material so it would even out.I read how to square up my quilt. Not sure yet how crooked it will be. I went back to my fabric pile and found a pattern for the boarder. I used a flannel flat sheet code the backing. It will be a masterpiece I’m sure. I found this site when I got to the border stage. I’m glad I did. I like the double layer because the are weakest where you pull on them so thanks for that I will post a photo when I’m finished. Glad for you site. Cheryl
Awesome job, Cheryl! Your experience sounds very similar to my first baby quilt attempt. I tried to scrounge as much from around the house as I could to avoid needlessly spending on tools if quilting didn’t end up being ‘my thing’. 🙂
Good luck completing your quilt and please come back and post or send me a picture! I’d love to see your finished product!
And remember, flaws are just little extra bits of love added in. 😉

Hi, I was wondering what kind of stitching pattern you used? Tight setting or a larger gapped stitch? I think I worded that correctly…
Hi Molly!
I typically use a ‘quilt stitch’ setting on my machine. I like the way it looks & holds.
Larger gapped stitching can be used for quilting, if desired. It is wonderful if using specialty thread (glittery etc).
I find length of stitch for the quilting portion really is a personal preference. Whatever you like and are most comfortable with.
Good luck! 😊
Hi! Would you mind posting a zoomed-in pic of the corner (both the front and the back of the quilt)? Not quite sure what a mitered edge is supposed to look like. Finishing up part 4 and excited to get to this step soon!
Also – do you have recommendations for binding fabric? The back of my quilt is minky fabric – wondering if that would be good for the binding as well to make it super cozy or if cotton would be an easier/better choice. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this really helpful tutorial! I followed you step by step throughout the whole process and am so proud to have just finished my very first baby quilt to give to my best friend, who is due in August. I couldn’t have done it without your guidance!
Thanks for much for these videos! I am making a small quilt, my first, and following all the steps as best I can. I am using 6″ squares. My daughter picked out the fabric and it is all different! Some minky, some cotton, some flannel. She likes what she likes. So, I am trying to make her dream come true, but admittedly finding it very difficult! The minky is lovely stuff, but it stretches more than cotton or flannel. Any advice on that? Also, one minky is super fluffy! It is wonderfully soft, but the pile is LONG!! I had to comb it away from seams in order to have it sewn together. She wanted a bumpy minky on the back, but when ironing, the bumps went flat. (oops!!) I didn’t make them all flat, just some as I caught on quickly…just not quick enough. Any way, I would like to use the minky on the back for the binding, so cut the back extra wide & long in order to double it and roll it into the proper binding look. I am wondering how to do the corners, but mitering gave me a great idea. I will see how it turns out and let you know!
