Apple Harvest Quilt Video Tutorials

Tips for getting started

  • Please be sure to read through all instructions before beginning. 
  • All seams are scant 1/4" unless otherwise stated.
  • Seam allowance is included in the templates.
  • Press seams open unless otherwise stated.
  • Use the labels included in the pattern. Pin these the Right Side of your fabric after cutting. Page 10

Suggested Extra Supplies

  • Temporary Adhesive/Basting Spray OR Straight Pins 
  • Temporary Fabric Glue
  • 28 mm Rotary Cutter
  • Paper Scissors
  • Temporary Fabric Pen
  • Clear Tape
  • Fabric Starch

Video 1 | How To Cut Your Fabric Using the Templates in the Apple Harvest Quilt Pattern

  • Print Templates 1-6 at 100% scale on 8 1/2" x 11" paper. Pages 11-14
  • Check that printouts are sized correctly by measuring the 1" square on each page.
  • Tip: You can either pin the templates to your fabric or use a temporary adhesive/basting spray. If using basting spray, spray the paper rather than the fabric; let it dray and become tacky before putting it on the fabric. 
  • Tip: If you're using wovens, I recommend using pins when cutting the templates because the adhesive can snag the fabric.

Video 6 | How To Blind Stitch Applique Seeds On The Apple Harvest Quilt

There are three options for assembling the seeds. All are included in the pattern.

  • Using Adhesive
  • Using a Purse String Basting Stitch
  • Raw Edge

You may choose to applique the seeds using one of the following techniques:

  • Blind Stitch (included in video tutorial)
  • Top Stitch by Hand
  • Top Stitch by Machine

Finishing Your Quilt

  • Your block should measure 20 1/2" x 20 1/2" unfinished. 
  • You can either:
    • Keep your block to include with the other 8 blocks from the 2024 Sweater Weather Sampler.
    • Make a single mini quilt from it.
    • Include it in another project, like a throw pillow or tote. I have a Tutorial on How to Make a Block into Quilted Zipper Pillow HERE.
