Simple Sewing & Designs for using 5" CHARM SQUARES! 2nd in our series to use 5" squares or charms!

There are literally HUNDREDS of quilts you could make using the ideas from this video and charm packs! This video will show you how to do simple sewing techniques to make a variety of blocks which can all be rearranged in many different ways to make so many different designs.

Remember the playground from when you were a kid and all the options you had for fun? That is how I felt about the projects in this video! I could play and play and never get bored! There were so many things to try and I didn't want the fun to end! I will definitely use this same process again to make quilts in the future, maybe even another video combined with more options...we shall see!

I love charm packs! Those cute little bundles of fabric lure me in and make me buy them.
Now I need to start using them before the collection I have overwhelms me! Fortunately there are hundreds of awesome projects that use charm packs to make anything from full sized quilts to baby quilts to bags and more! We will be using charm packs for all of the projects, but leftover fabrics from projects cut into 5" squares will also work! Most of the videos will include a sample made from a charm pack (or two or three or more) AND a sample made from leftovers from other projects.

Make your own charm packs! Cut up your stash and create your own charm packs using fabric you already own. One fat quarter can be cut up to make 12 five inch squares. A third of a yard of fabric can be cut up to make 16 five inch squares. When you finish a project, if you have leftover yardage, cut it into five inch squares and start a pile to use for future projects. Have some fun with your stash of fabrics!
