Updated 6-hour quilt

I received an email concerning Kaye Wood's updated 6-hour quilt video. The link doesn't work. Has anyone seen this updated method? This pattern is one of my go-to kids's patterns.

the only video i found does no say updated https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOTV-YSF-48
but this link is to the updated pattern http://www.craftsy.com/pattern/quilt...-updated/24591

Thank you, tessagin and QuiltnNan.

Just a thought....if the video goes away sometime down the road, you might want to have the book available. I bought the book a while back after seeing the video, just to have handy.

Does anyone know if this could be adapted to a domestic sewing machine? I don't have a serger, I like the idea of fast quilt for charity quilts and since I don't do any quilting all my quilts are sent to LA, I can't afford to make charity quilts very often.

I have made it with a regular sewing machine. You can follow her instructions but just sew with your machine instead of a serger. My serger didn't like the layers so I just stick with my sewing machine.

Also go on the internet and look it up on you tube or you can contact her company and let her know it doesn't work

Thank you for posting this! I had forgotten.

Yes you can do this with a regular sewing machine. You can either use a straight stitch or a zigzag stitch. If you watch Kayewoods site & watch her video, she lets you know how to make this either way. Going to her site, you don't have to buy the pattern.

Just went to crafty site to see the " updated" version of the pattern. It states sizes for up to double......ok, but for anything larger than kiddie - original version - those strip panels, in my mind, would need some anchoring along the way or I would imagine the "lumping" when washed and handled would be disastrous. I wonder if the new pattern addresses that......if anyone has it can you tell us? I think if I were to go bigger, I would channel quilt those panels as I added them....JMHO

I love her technique for quilt as you go. I use it for rows but do tend to keep my rows somewhat narrow (8 inches or so) since they are easier to handle on my sewing machine.
Here's one I did using the technique...http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...ml#post6727514
