Happy 4th Lady Liberty Tutorial

7/4/2015

I hope you have fun things planned for this holiday (if you are in the US). To celebrate, I thought I would re-post my video on creating a Lady Liberty quilt using Electric Quilt. I will also be giving the next set of instructions for the Kite quilt.

Featured Quilt - Come Said the Wind

Pat C. shared her rendition of Come Said the Wind. She embroidered the poem on her version of this quilt. Very nice!

Pat C. Come Said the Wind

The poem in the quilt was written by George Cooper, an American poet who lived from 1838 – 1927. The large wall hanging finishes to 33”□, while the small one finishes 15” x 12”. To make construction easier, many sections in the quilt use over-sized piecing along with specialty rulers. If you cannot find the specialty ruler, instructions are provided for use of traditional rulers.

Purchase pattern here.

Happy quilting.

Love the Lady Liberty block and really wanted to to hear your Electric Quilt instructions. However, I had to speakers to the highest number and could barely hear you. What can I do to hear this video?

The codex used in this video has created problems for some users -- but most were able to listen without a problem. So it has been a mystery as to the actual problem. I did. switch to a different codex when recording, which may help the problem in the future. However, I don't have time to redo all the old free videos.

This morning, I replay the Lady Liberty video on three different devices (iPhone, table and desktop) and four different browsers (internet explorer, chrome, silk and safari) and volume was ok on all of them. I did find when using Safari on my iPhone, I needed to turn the volume all the way up. When I switched to Chrome on my iPhone, it could be at 50%. And when I played it on IE on my desktop, I couldn't just adjust the volume in the video, but needed to turn up the volume on my actual speakers as well. But even in that situation, I wasn't even at the 50% mark on the computer speaker volume.

Based on my testing, here are a couple of suggestions to try. (1) Try using a different browser. I would suggest trying Chrome first. (2) If possible, try playing on a different device. (3) Make sure you are adjusting the actual speakers on your device and not just using the volume indicator in the video.

I hope one of these ideas works for you..

Thanks so much for this amazing video. I just joined a yahoo group and found your message about the video. I'm a beginner and this is the first video I've seen. Learned so much already. I'm on my way to finally learning this program. Pam
