Can you believe it’s already Feb. 1st?! This year is flying on by so we better get started if we want to make some quilts this year!
Today I’m starting my new FREE Video Quilt Along for the Samosa Quilt!
This is a great beginner friendly project and I’m sharing tons of tips & tricks with you along the way. If you’re new to quilting give this project a go! I think you will surprise yourself.
To get started you’ll need the following:
• 10″ x 10″ squares of quilting cotton fabric (the number of squares will depend on how big you want your quilt to be. I’ll be making mine with 42 squares. )
• a 10″ Slicer Ruler
That’s it! Watch the video below to get started! Let me know what kinds of fabrics you plan to use for your quilt and who you are making it for!
Happy quilting!

Nice one. I purchased this ruler I. Paducah the year you came out with it. Have made a quilt and many of the zipper scissor cases.

Hi Vanessa, Can you tell me the approximate size quilt that 1 pk. Of 10×10″ squares will make? I love your color pack of squares. I can’t wait to get started on this. I’m left handed so I guess I will have to turn the ruler upside down to make my cuts. Thank you.

Thank you Vanessa.

Hi Vanessa, this looks amazing and fun…I don’t have fabric and I don’t have that ruler, but I sure would like to make this quilt. I live in Switzerland, so I’ll have to make a plan to get everything I need. Thank you. Sue🌸💖

Oh man I missed this first one! Can you tell me please what pins are best for quilting? I read glass tops are better but what size and maybe brand? Fine or extra fine? Thanks.
Vanessa Vargas Wilson
For quilting I love these glass head pins: https://amzn.to/2S8MGNW. Hope that helps!
Carrie Davis
Oh wow your great Vanessa. Thanks for the quick response.

I love these templates. I got them in 2016 on the Caribbean Cruise 🙂 It was so much fun that week. Your a true blessing. And such a great inspiration! Met you a few times. Love following you!

Two thumbs up. Love the look of these blocks. I have the ruler so I will try this when my current project is finished. So glad you are back doing tutorials.
Kerrie
What does the “finished” quilt look like? Why isn’t there an image anywhere? Thanks.
Vanessa Vargas Wilson
I’m making it while I film and post videos. It will be posted when I get to that point.
Diane
Love this and can’t wait to try it! Bought the ruler a year ago and haven’t used it yet. Can you show a picture of how you put the blocks together? Thanks

I am a seasoned quilter, but I love your videos. They are perfect for beginners and veterans a like. I just purchased this ruler and plan to use it to make some Samosa quilts out of layer cakes that I have as well as some scrap quilts, using fun novelty fabrics I’ve accumulated over the years. Keep up the good work!
Marsha Caulkins
I am wowed by the speed in which my order was processed and shipped this week! I also look forward to making this block with my new 10 inch slicer ruler. Love your videos and method of teaching. You rock!!
Elaine Bilk
Very interesting and easy. I like that you just use the 10” squares and mix them up.
Sharon Johnston
What size borders did you put on your Samosa quilt. It looks like you have 2 of them. Suggestions please.
Vanessa Vargas Wilson
I did not add borders to this quilt.
Vanessa Towns
How long will the video be up here for viewing. I should say videos? I am just getting started
Vanessa Vargas Wilson
Forever. Happy quilting!

I made my first 10” slicer quilt. I love it! There’s no rhyme or reason to the placement of the blocks. I cut them to 9” square, added a 2” then 6” border. I can’t wait to quilt it! I wish I can show a picture!
