Which tute would you think is the easiest? I have looked at several but can't decide on the best.
TIA,

I haven't tried this one but watched it several times. She does a good job of explaining and it combines embroidery.

While watching this video, I got the idea to make a QAG using her method, and using batting and backing instead of a foundation. This worked really well because I cut the backing at 14" x14", the batting at 13" x 13", and trim the finished block to 12" x 12". Works wonderful, and since I am working with scraps, (cut 2.5" wide) not much waste. I have been using leftover batting in them also.

To join the squares, I use the method in the video below. I use 3" strips, folded in half, and when I get ready to attach the "sashing" to the next square, I use school glue to position them on one side, iron, flip it over and glue the sashing strip to the back. I stitch on both sides of the sashing so it looks even. Fun and done quick. I do them in quarters so only one really long sashing.

The first one I did is below. It is diagonal sewn and straight set. The one I am working on is stright set, and will be done to look like a weave quilt. Wish me luck. I like working with a twelve inch block for these so that any "extra" blocks can be used in scrappys together. I will continue to experiment with QAG ideas because I like the fact that they are quick and everything fits. Excuse all my wrinkles, it was already boxed for shipment, when I realized I had forgot to take a picture. A quick ride in the dryer and it was fine. I even made a pillow to match using the same method, but I used shorter strips and put a border on it.

I like to use the method shown on the Welsh Quilter website with a few minor variations of my own:

I'm planning to try this method but I might have to take a look at all the links here too. Maybe I'll find something better.

I have not done any of my own quilting of quilts, only piecing tops; but your method makes sense and your quilt is gorgeous! It looks like you used batiks, which I love and what a perfect pattern. Would you share the pattern name please?
