want to remind everybody that this is a great great grid to use in your quilt development whether you're putting a block up for an audition or you're laying out your quilt for an audition before you start sewing it together it's really great the fabric adheres beautifully to it and it's a great preliminary view of what you're going to be sewing together so we'd like to just remind everybody of all of these so today like i said uh previously we are talking about the gathering omas program that begins this july and kaif is going to be talking to us about this there are four options in this quilt we have it in gemstone we have it in smoke we have it in delph and we have it in scarlet and kaif is going to be talking to us about all of this he's going to be talking to us about his inspiration what began the journey of uh developing all of these quilts and uh we're excited to hear all about this so without further ado i am going to turn my spotlight video from myself over to cave so hold on one second here so cave we are you are on a spotlight video now and we are thrilled to have you here happy new year thank you very much and happy new year to everybody uh isn't it interesting that this terrible thing that's happening in the world is happening everywhere we all have to be sympathetic with each other so um i just would like to say that uh a lot of people like very complicated storytelling sort of quilts and i'm just not into that um my thing is i've always loved traditional quilts and what really got me fascinated with the world of patchwork was seeing friends of mine go to an auction and buy a beautiful old quilt and bring it back and we would pour over it and look at all the wonderful little patterns and fabrics that were in that and i've never gotten over that addiction to very traditional classic quilts particularly ones that are easy to make because i design quite rich kind of storytelling fabrics really and you know they're like tapestries a lot of them are very very ornate and kind of baroque designs of flowers and paisleys and great stripes and so forth and so i'm not really um that keen on very complicated small piece quilts i like things with kind of medium to larger pieces so that i can show off my fabrics you know if i design those and put that color in then i really want them to show when they're used in a quilt and also i like a quilt that's that's kind of easy and quick to assemble so that you can put up all the elements of it and then rearrange it and change it according to what um you know what makes those those colors and that fabric even sexier and have a bigger stronger vibration of color because that's what i'm i think my task in life is to help people bring a palette of color together and make it glow that's where after the glow even if it's a very faint glow of the glow from an opal you know something that's all shades of gray and very delicate pastel watercolory effects that is a wonderful coloring and a wonderful world to exist in and i often uh find myself playing around with very grayed down soft colors as well as wonderful up vibrant reds and dancing on the table top colors you know they just have a terrific celebration uh about them now today we're going to talk about a quilt i i went around to many places in the world when we were able to travel that was an amazing time to think back on uh and i used to just uh go and read the antique quilt uh stalls in these festivals that i would go to in different places in the world and i was always on the lookout for something that caught my eye that was a wonderful use of color and pattern but that also was easy to construct and i found this wonderful quilt in houston one day the wonderful houston quilt market and it was called um gathering no moss is that what it's called i can't even remember the new one is gathering no moss rather you know moss right uh and what what i love about it uh is that it's very very basic and simple and at the end of my spiel uh liza is going to show you how to make the block which is just charming it's all done with kind of squares and oblongs and and it's just simple and wonderful uh and and that i caught on to right away when i looked at it but what really caught my eye were these wonderful prints in wonderful shades of brown but with stabs of rich indigo blue and then beautiful kind of uh minty greens and deep rich kind of watermelon greens and just wonderful things one of the things that was interesting about this quilt is that it had a few very light contrasting squares now that didn't interest me that much although it it it was kind of exciting but to me when i really examined it i thought that we were a bit distracting there were sort of like headlights suddenly in the middle of the quilt and so i've made my versions uh much more even and sort of simpler in in in the sense of not quite so shockingly contrasting so um i hope you enjoy those and i'm going to show you um one of the things that i noticed about it was that there were a lot of beiges and grays and kind of small prints that became kind of tweedy so we had the feeling of of a kind of earthiness of the palette uh kind of gray coming into kind of peaty browns and those kind of colors but it was all those kind of neutral uh prints that made the color when the color does exist it really sings out because it has this base of kind of stoney grays and neutrals and that's one of the things about color that i find most fascinating if you really want to bring rather subtle colors to life and make them really vibrate you put them with very neutral colors and then the little bit of color that's in them just shines out and so that is just one of the things i've learned now okay show you my first version this is the way i played with the story i tried to go for those browns and grays and soft colors but i made it paler as you can see uh it's got a kind of softer quality but with stabs of um kind of darker brighter things like for instance in there is this wonderful fabric of philip jacobs which is feathers it's beautiful and so we've got these wonderful kind of decorative feathers with wonderful strong markings and and deep colors and so that brings one of the sort of dark things i can see right here there's a very dark square um of that and um another one another one of phillips that i find fascinating is called geodes and you can see this is one of my favorite colorways i do the colors for philip and i thought that this colorway really worked a treat yeah that's really handsome uh ochres and browns and grays and things but i love the kind of they're they're sort of soft warm colors you know a beautiful palette um and uh another thing is milly fury as one of the patterns that i come back to and back to it's become our one of our classics and this is a new colorway that i did for the that pattern and so you can see the circles there of of of milly fury um and if i get really close you can see the details uh of all the little pieces of these kind of like paperweights that i made as a design another colorway on that which is similar but quite different really is it's a more antique kind of coloring of that and all of these worked as this kind of small print idea for the quilt another thing that i really love and hear is brandon madley's animal print which is really really quite gorgeous in color i love that yeah orange and kind of snake skin feel wonderful texture to it um uh the one of the fabrics that we made into a classic right away was one called brassica which is beautiful decorative cabbages that philip jacobs did now this is very subtle i hope that you can see it out there in the world yeah very very subtle shades of grey this is kind of to me like a very delicate marble when it's when it's cut up and put together it can be a beautiful background for when you want to highlight some kind of jewel-like colors uh using a very soft neutral grayish background like this can be just charming for that and uh then then you know i resisted doing polka dots for years but one of the polka dots that i really love when i got into it i really love it i keep adding colors to the range but you can see this is the sashing that is all over this thing so that gives it this little very soft dove gray with little pinkish white uh spots and that gives a very very nice feeling to surround all of the um parts of this quilt and on the back you'll notice that i've used uh brandon madley's onion rings in black and white which is a great backing for anything but particularly for this neutral quilt so i just wanted to remind everybody that the quilt that cafe just showed us that's the smoke version of this uh of the four different colorways that we're offering in this program right okay before you tell us about this next quilt i just wanted to let you know that we have a lot of people watching today right and a lot of groups of people are watching too so a lot of people have gotten together wonderful isn't that great and i also um see that philip jacobs has joined so we have a lot of people on today i'll let you know that everybody's really excited to be here celebrities well well that's wonderful so so we've got hen parties and uh yes and all and celebrities watching how great uh to have philip watching this that's one thing yeah isn't that great now here we've got um [Music] an interesting taking scarlett and um and greens it's almost kind of a chinese combination you know i was raised in a wonderful china town in san francisco very near the chinatown and i used to notice how they would play with red and green and in the most amazing ways uh making it incredibly exciting so with the greens um i've got millie fury again and this time look at that color compared to what we just saw you know those sort of antique browns we've got this kind of emerald green and jade greens put together so that's kind of exciting to see how that works uh as as one of the fabrics and these are the backgrounds so this is um roman glass which would you believe it the very first fabric i ever designed and it's still in our range all these millions of years later i just can't believe it and that was designed from looking at wonderful antique fragments of glass from ancient rome and seeing all these beautiful little glass candies as i call them that were in the glass and i made it so that was your very first skew okay very first fabric that i ever designed for the ranges of fabrics and it's wonderful it's still going and this is similar but it's finer so we get smaller pieces on this this is from wonderful glass paperweight that um liza had a friend and she meant it to me and i just did all the beautiful little what i call those glass candies and this uh in a million different colorways is one of our best uh classic uh designs brandon does wonderful simple um strong kind of primitive things and he did this wonderful jumble which is um you can see just lots of wonderful very organic circles and the scale of this the boldness of it makes it wonderful i use it all the time for sashing for backgrounds for borders for everything it's just a very exciting fabric and it shows color wonderfully so that those are the sort of green stories um and then we've got philip jacobs wonderful wisteria now i asked philip to come up with a good wisteria design you'd have to get it the right way up yeah and and so he came up with this wonderful design um and we've done it many different colors i've done it with a black background and very amazing blues and so forth but here we've got sort of purples and uh very high pinks on this wonderful rich uh orangey red background scarlet background and um another one of brandon's that i love a very sort of abstract but a real shot of magenta and that's very exciting with those greens it has a terrific vibration uh what else have we got here oh this is another one of philip jacobs this is i showed you the gray brassica which was like marble and here we've got another one that's incredibly popular there's pinks and magentas and purples and wonderful kind of smoky orange-y pinks and that uh is makes a very good fabric for this quilt one of the things that's exciting about this quilt is that it you take a stack of greens and a stack of reds you could play with the idea of just switching them around and having all your details the small squares in green and you could make them the background red on each of these blocks you can also switch around the blocks you have a stack of fabrics that are background fabrics and ones that are the details of the design and you can make those combinations however you like you'll notice that certain ones are more contrasty than others some of the combinations i put together are very close and so they almost disappear because they're the same sort of value and if you don't like that if you want a little more edge a little more contrast then put the fabrics together in a way that they have more of an edge like i'm seeing here this one is wonderfully sharp the lighter green and the quite dark red so it has a real edge one of the things that's interesting about this i've done another quilt with exactly these combinations of fabrics same fabrics but with different sashing here i've got a dark sashing of circles um one of my designs and um it is quite dark but look at this and you'll see that here's a lighter version where i've done just a red sashing and the only difference is that this has a red sashing but do you see what a difference that is from from this one which just has this kind of darker feel to it because of the session and here the sashing is red so that we get this glow i mean i can i can see it on my screen it's so exciting i find it um this is the one i prefer i really love this one uh we've got brandon's um wonderful jumble and there's so there's that design which i love and i have in so many different color ways i'm making a quilt at the moment that's all different versions of this different colorways of this particular fabric but that is the sashing so that surrounds everything here but then we get a little cornerstone of my um paperweight design it's okay a little little circular thing with kind of wonderful mossy greens um and there there it goes so that you can see from the three different versions i've shown you here i've kept it fairly um close toned it's it's not got a real hard edge i can see that i'm certain circles are standing out quite nicely from from this distance and i like that but they're still kind of smoldering they're not high contrast but my last quill okay okay before you change that i just want to let everyone know the could you just pull that back for a quick second that quilt is called scarlet and the one before that the cave showed is called gemstone and as cave pointed out the only difference between both of these that he's showing is the sashing and what a huge difference it makes in just changing cat you're sharing excuse me it really is oh yeah it's amazing yeah so uh this really brings out the red right my last quilt was my gorgeous liza loves blue and white as i do we're both just great fans of blue and white i have tons of i love blue i i should have well i can i can tell you one of my paintings actually this is kind of blue and white and red and white so you're getting a kind of a show of the of the strong kind of contrast that is exists and so here is the strongest quilt of all you can see it's practically black and white it's got this wonderful kind of quite dark velvety blues greeny blues and so forth um and very very exciting use of fabrics and it goes with my shirt don't you think it does in case you're getting a lot of compliments in your shirt today too oh lovely yeah it's it's a fabric that i bought years ago somewhere uh a handmade african tie-dye and i love it it's so soft and worn i've worn it for years and really really enjoy it so anyway um there's there's kind of a ride down uh gathering no moss you know it's it's it's a wonderful uh old block which is very simple to make as you're going to see when liza does her little demonstration but um here the sashing is a wonderful fabric called shark's tooth uh which brandon sharks teeth which brandon designed it has a beautiful rolling rhythm so that the um the different parts of this quilt have a beautiful movement you know it just kind of rolls along but i think that i can see uh people that love blue and white you know and have wonderful big blue and white china pots which i do i've got some fabulous ones yes um i should have brought one upstairs just to show you against this but you know if you had a beautiful bedroom in a in a grand house somewhere and you wanted to just make that kind of blue and white statement um this would be the way to go with it but it's interesting isn't it this is almost um kind of just two colors this quilt uh whereas the other ones had these kind of flavors of you know you know greens that were more bluey green and and reds that were more magenta and then more maroon and more scarlet more orange and so you got these these in and out flavors of playing with color and that's what i'm always trying to do uh to people is to inspire you to play with color in that way one of the the way that i design quilts these days more and more is just taking a great range of colors like if i was doing this when i would get all my blues and i just decide which blues really were going to work together and be punchy and and jewel like and exciting and then i would start getting kind of shades of white and off-whites and pale pinks and a lot of my blue and white quilts have soft greens and a little bit of yellow and a little bit of pink in them because i like that kind of warming up the whites but it's just i i'm just hoping that you're all gonna enjoy it yes sorry sharon yeah no i'm interrupting you i apologize um do you have any of the fabrics that you wanted to show for this quilt as well well i didn't bring any of those out okay that's okay that's that's oh eliza has them that's right yeah good but liza can show those and um i'm just i'm that that's all i'm gonna say to you today because i'm i'm just i just hope that you're all feeling as creative as i am i have been making crazy things and designing and knitting and um and doing needle points and making great big a patchwork blankets of my of knitting samples pieces uh my swatches you know and so uh it's been a very very creative time being locked into this prison i know it's all in uh but um you know we're on the verge of being let free but boy these last days can be wonderfully creative and i hope that you all will be so god bless you all cave thank you so much and i just want to um tell everyone now that the the quilt behind cave is called delph and we're going to switch over to liza in one second um and she's going to show us how to work in some blocks but keith not to put you on the spot i hope i don't put you on the spot we were talking about this before we came on so the block was originally called um rolling stone and it was renamed that this quilt is now being being called gathering no moss right so we were talking about how this became named gathering no moss would you like to talk about i just don't know you know i just saw it in an antique book uh one day or maybe it was on the label of the quilt that i bought i i can't remember just remember seeing that it was a quilt block uh that was called that and i just thought how interesting you know these different names like flying geese and tumbling blocks and everything that these different quilt blocks are called uh just fascinates me i i am so fascinated by the world of vintage quills and the vast creativity that went on in uh you know from unnamed women for years and years and years who made these wonderful pieces for their poems and so forth and we get to uh enjoy them in museums and wonderful quilt books of vintage quilts so you know i'm i'm just happy i i don't know the origin of that if somebody knows it please send me an email oh no i just meant more from you know a rolling stone gathers no moss is more what was kind of a play on that potentially but if you don't have more would it be lovely uh i just wanted to tell you like i said to you before we have a lot of viewers today and and not only individual viewers but a lot of groups have come in today so i just thought you'd really like to know because i know there's no way for you to know that so i just wanted you to know that we have a lot of viewers that are very excited about this and very complementary to you and to brandon and philip they're saying you know keep designing we love your designs we love your colors you know a lot of you know you're so inspiring and they're thanking you for being on today so we thank you well thank you to all of you and uh i'm telling you every quilt show i ever go to i'm so turned on by what you guys do and contribute to those quilt shows around the world so i'm i love everybody's creation and all the things that come over pinterest and uh all of that too is fascinating well i'm i'm happy to hear you're out there looking and all that so that's fantastic all right keith well thank you so much and um say hi to brandon is he there can he pop in quick is he around or oh no he's not going to pop in oh he's not going to pop in okay so uh well tell him we said hello and we're going to switch live and now and happy new year to you and brandon and uh thank you so much for giving us your background on uh you know how you were thinking of the designing of all these quilts i mean i think it really as people look at the quilts and they decide which one they want to make you know it's always nice to have uh you know a little bit of background and insight as to what you were thinking as you developed them so we thank you so much for that okay so i'm going to switch over to liza and she's going to be on spotlight video so welcome liza hey sharon here we are yes happy new year happy new year to you too so i'm sure you're going to describe how this program is going to work for the various shops i don't deal with those details so i'll let you fill that in but i want to show you the three groups of fabrics in the delft colorway and as keith was saying you can move around and do things the way you wish you don't have to follow our formulas exactly but what we did was we have a group that will be centers of the block and you can fussy cut those if you wanted to have just a flower you could fussy cut it you don't have to then the details are my darkest blues and the backgrounds are what i call whites but again you know don't take that so literally as you can tell this is not really white it's just a matter of contrast and how this looks very white this looks almost black and these will be your centers so the way that kate and i work together is he'll come cook up an idea in this case he sent me a picture of his antique and i work with electric quilt program and end up getting my math together and that will measurements for me which i'm grateful for because i used to have to do this from scratch and now i have a computer program with electric quilt doing this for me and then i'm ready to cut and sew um this block is behind me here you can see it's made up of rectangles squares and then blocks that are a square within a square and there are two different ways to make this one some people make them using squares that you put on the corners and cut off and i'll show you how to do that some people make them with half square triangles and sew them to the center this is my preference but this is easier i just happen to be frugal about fabric this usually uses less and it's good to build your skills so what you will do is you're going to make four of these units out of the two fabrics and you're going to make four of these pairs and one center and you'll sew these first then sew these together and then sew this to this to this this to this to this this and then so you're blocked together and if that was too fast um there will be paperwork that comes with your pattern uh and fabric so i'm gonna go to my machine and show you how to do the square and square blocks i've got bright pink thread so that you'll be able to see my stitches uh i normally would not do this so one of the things that has made this sort of thing this sort of block easy for me is years and years and years i've been using this thing called the angler which is no longer made and it helps me keep my fabric going straight we are developing one now with paper pieces and they're going to produce one for me to replace that product that's no longer made so the easier way to make this block or the cheater way is cut a square i believe these are four and a half inches and these are two and a half you draw a pencil line from a corner to corner and you sew on the pencil line the reason for this is if you don't want to draw with a pencil you put this here and you place see the point can you see the struct the yeah uh-huh and then you put your needle down at the beginning and then you keep your eye here don't look at the needle look at the stripe and that is a way of not having to take that step of drawing with a pencil i like that well that's one way the other way of course is to just forget about this and you sew on the pencil line you do this on all four corners and you're more careful than i just was and you're going to cut this out off about a quarter inch from your stitching line and fold it back and you will do this one too and then the other two and you will have a square and a square very nice the way i do it and the measurements are somewhat different so i'm going to show show you the measurements your center squares are a smidge beyond three and a quarter by three and a quarter and your half square triangles are two or seven eighths make a square and then cut it in half and what i do as i find the middle of both pieces i do by pinching by the way making creases and if you put your needle down right where that's going to meet you'll be in just the right spot that's how you know you've got the right size and sew that right along using this a quarter inch foot normally i have a stiletto here i forgot i'm cold liza yes and then fold it back oh there you go and i do opposite sides one two three four wow so if you go back over to this board my photographer here this one alex done great job liza thank you this one was done with the squares and this one was done with the triangles and they're exactly the same right so it's just a matter of preference preference to how you like to sew they're both correct right does anybody questions about sewing these or how to go about it uh let me see i don't see any questions just people that say that they have an angler thanks for watching everyone's loving this the angler was a game changer so you're saying that the angler isn't uh produced anymore but you're working on one with paper uh that's right that's right this this this has gotten me through many many quilts but it's no longer available and uh so i've asked paper pieces to develop one for us it won't have so much going on but it will have the um the strike that you follow with your your points wow and we hope to have that very soon oh okay well that's going to be a question too so again a lot of hearts are coming through on that liza a lot of people so a lot of people are also saying um oh you know what i don't have this information at uh but sid hill is asking how big are the individual blocks do you happen to know that i think it's 13 inches yeah all right so the center okay so the centers are cut five and a half the rectangles are cut two and a half by four and a half and these finish um that's this will finish it four inches this will finish it four inches uh this way five inches that way so five four and four five four and four yep so this is a five inch this will be a four inch all right got it yep is that clear it's clear to me yep okay wait a minute i'm just trying to scan through a lot of comments about the angler how large is the square in the center you already said that you want to write it down yep so yeah no i don't have any questions people are loving the fabrics they're loving how the close-ups of it all um they love watching you know a lot of positive comments um love watching it what did you do to show liza uh the measurements if you want to do it with um if you want to do it with the half square triangles in the centers yeah those are the measurements so i say three and a quarter plus because this is smidge bigger okay okay yeah that's awesome yeah so well thank you liza for giving us this quick demonstration and the delft uh quilt is beautiful along with all the others they're all so gorgeous it's going to be hard you know how many how many do we make right how many of them i mean you know this is another example where you could switch them where this becomes the the circles and this becomes the background right you can do it the other way and uh change the sashing you saw what that can do put some of your own stash in there make make this a scrappy quilt it is a scrappy quilt you know kate said from the very beginning when we started this company together is that he wanted the fabrics to look as though though you came upon them in a boot sale which is a flea market in england boot b the trunk of your car and so um you know they do there are no coordinates here they're varied i'm sorry if you can hear that whimpering in the background it's my dog oh no i don't hear it okay does your dog want to come in i'm sure she does right so um liza i'm going to take you off the spotlight so what's going to happen now is when uh if you'll still be there though um when i take you off it's going to be both of us on okay hold on and i just want to see if we can unmute you can we unutilize it yeah great thank you so um liza thank you for the demonstration it's been great um just wanted to remind everybody that you know as liza just showed us how to lay out that particular block and as she just said you know you can do whatever you would like in terms of uh placement in this quilt you know add your stash to it get different coordinates uh there are beautiful fabrics a cape has coming out in february you know add those to this project this is something that you decide you want to replace it with or anything like that so you know add your own creativity to this the whole way that you're working on it i mean cafe has given us a wonderful foundation to begin with with all of these uh versions and so i just wanted to go through it one more time because i know people are going to ask um so there are four versions of this quilt so there's gemstone and there's scarlet and these are the virtual images i hope everybody can see these okay um and the difference between them is the sashing and so when cape showed them to us that's what the difference is and then the very first quilt the cave showed us was the smoke quilt and that's this one so it's a you know a little bit more subtle in terms of the color combinations but beautiful quilt i think i'm going to make that one i have to confess and then this last one that lies is shown the delft or the cave showed and that eliza showed us the block this is the delft version of the quilt so there's four different quilts excuse me and um like we said previously uh well if you're interested in the program we ask you to reach out to your local quilt shop very soon because they will be ordering their fabrics as of uh january 22nd that's the cutoff date for them to order into the fabrics for this program so if you're interested please contact your local quilt shop tell them you're interested tell them which color ways plural you're interested in making and uh or you know whether it be one or whether
