Learn how to finish your own quilts without the use of a longarm professional "Quilting is easier than ever with Jera Brandvig's modern spin on the popular quilt-as-you-go technique." — Modern Quilts Unlimited "Quilt-as-you-go (QAYG) is one of those techniques that every quilter is curious about trying, but can be daunting as the process is so different to the traditional process of making a quilt top and then quilting it. . . . The book introduces the technique very thoroughly, so you can clearly understand the difference between traditional piecing and quilting and QAYG. Then there's a great selection of gorgeous quilts that are sure to appeal to the modern quilter. A must if you've ever thought about trying QAYG and haven't had a clue where to start." — Make Modern Magazine Review: Highly recommend - excellent QAYG resource! - I was a little reluctant to purchase this book because I wanted to make sure I was buying something I would use. I have been so pleased with the ideas contained in the book, and I have been motivated to be more creative in my quilt-making. I have already made a quilt using one of her patterns in the book, and everyone that has seen it thinks it's so cute. It was easier to make than traditional quilting is, and even though I was concerned about the back of the quilt looking odd when it is not quilted at the same time as the top of the quilt blocks are, that was not the case at all. For me, it seems easier to keep the quilt squared up when using QAYG. I went ahead and bought her 2nd book and am crazy about it too. I can't wait until her third book comes out. I would highly recommend both this book and the QAYG Made Vintage and think they are well worth the money spent. Instructions have been clear for me, but I already had some quilting experience, so that was a plus for me. Review: Love this book ! - I highly recommend this book to beginners like me, it explains in detail step by step on quilting, I also love the projects she added in putting together beautiful quilts. she has incredibly good taste in fabrics too! Love her work, love her style. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #65,621 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #8 in Craft Patchwork #9 in Quilts & Quilting (Kindle Store) #12 in Sewing (Kindle Store) | ## Images ![Quilt As-You-Go Made Modern: Fresh Techniques for Busy Quilters - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81PqJ9QAWHL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommend - excellent QAYG resource! *by C***K on May 22, 2020* I was a little reluctant to purchase this book because I wanted to make sure I was buying something I would use.

Love her work, love her style. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great ideas, a few concerns left unanswered *by A***R on February 1, 2015* Great book, just didn't realize you still need to quilt the back of the quilt together with the top. I thought you'd be able to sew the top to the backing right sides together and not have to struggle with feeding the whole quilt through the machine to quilt the two sides together. Its an awful lot of extra work quilting each square as you go when you still have to quilt the top to the back. This method has a lot of value but it still doesn't eliminate the need to quilt the back to the front. She does say you can use tack stitches at the corner of each block where they join, like the "tying" method, but I'm not confident that would hold up in the wash with such a heavily quilted top. Also, I just wonder how secure those 1/2" sashing/joining strips are going to hold up in the wash as well. You will definitely want to have them gently cleaned I would imagine if you use the sashing/joining strip method for joining your pre-quilted blocks together. Also, when sewing to quilted squares together (the other joining method) this can be really hard on your sewing machine. You need to make sure you are using a really strong needle like a denim needle. My machine broke when I was making a rag quilt where you have to sew quilt sandwich blocks together and it cost $200 to fix. I didn't see anything in the instructions about how to avoid that from happening. And my machine is a Bernina, a good, solid machine, very heavy weight and built for hard work. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/99820716-quilt-as-you-go-made-modern-fresh-techniques-for-busy](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/99820716-quilt-as-you-go-made-modern-fresh-techniques-for-busy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-07*
