I watch all your tutorials and anxiously await the next one. You explain things so anyone can understand plus you use examples for those of us who are visual learners. Thanks, Donna and a big Hello to Matt and your staff!
I agree... and I'm your best advertising agent ever (but I'm not alone.) On the FB quilt groups, daily someone posts, "Where is it safe to order fabric online?" or "Who is reliable to order from? I'm anxious when I give out my card number to order online." or "Who has a decent selection so I can reach the minimum purchase for free shipping?" I always give you a plug and a hearty recommendation. Thanks for all you do!
If you need to scramble the colors evenly throughout the quilt, take a picture of it with your phone and look at the black and white version. It will give you an idea of the contrasting of it without the actual influence of color. I have found it very helpful. Once in a while you find a dark spot or a light spot really stand out you didn't notice before.
Hey there 👋🏾this was SUPER HELPFUL for me this morning. I’m not good at knowing what goes together or looks best. That’s why I buy precuts lol. Even so, I’m still not good at figuring out what order to assemble the blocks in. I did what you said an hour ago. It totally helps! I just evenly spaced out “black” and “white” and kept taking photos until it was even. Thank you so much!!!!
Thank you Donna brilliant tutorial. I am an 80 year old and new to patchwork and quilting. Using my time in lockdown to learn a new craft so very much appreciate your very clear and concise video.
You are a great instructor! I’ve watched so many quilt tutorials and there is too much time spent talking and having to watch each and every piece cut and sewn. It gets boring and I loose my patience. You have the perfect teaching system, articulate, precise and efficient. Thanks for all your advice on improving skills and tips focused on accuracy. Very talented!
I did not think I would like that quilt at all, but again Donna is the Master of color and selection. Well done. The quilt is beautiful, the large dark border makes it pop. Well done.
I just found Donna's videos tonight and started scrolling the comments...such an overwhelming amount of positivity and delight, nobody has a single bad thing to say and are just enjoying themselves and these wonderful videos :)
Thank you for another great tutorial. Some observations/requests: 1. It was awesome to see colourful flowery fabric instead of batik and/or grunge. 2. I would love to see a bio video of you & your husband explaining how you started in the quilting business 2a) Donna, you once said that you quilted around 2000 quilts, I’m so curious to know more about that. 3. I would love to see a video where you explain how you get the whole quilt done on your longarm...we only see the start, I would be curious to see how you get the second, third rows done until the end. Finally I learn a lot from you and wanted to say thank you. From Montréal Canada 🇨🇦
I absolutely love this quilt! All your choices were just perfect. I hope one day I can make this quilt for myself, following your specific design choices. 💖
Wow such a complicated looking quilt and it’s so easy! Just one block!! I probably would have skipped over this pattern thinking it’s got to be a more difficult one. Then Donna does another incredible video and teaches us that it’s not hard at all. Thank you so much Donna!
I was watching my emails like mad. I pounced on this email this morning during my coffee break. It's made my rainy morning , here in Cape Town, all the more sweeter. Donna, you make amazing projects. This is my favourite colour. Thank you so much!
I love your videos. You are a great teacher and your colorways are always spot on. Today is 9/11 and in watching the national news I see that some of Oregon is experiencing wildfires. Please stay safe and out of harm's way. You and Matt are like family to so many of us.
Another great video from Donna. She always makes each step look so easy, that even a beginner can feel confident in starting a quilt for the very first time. Thanks to the whole crew at Jordan Fabrics !!!
I love your videos. I've learned so much from you. Keep posting them please! Thanks Donna and Matt and everyone at Jordan fabrics. You are all awesome!
Yes she is....definitely a great teacher and I love her eye for color! I can’t wait til I get out west next summer and go to her shop, I’m bringing a Lot of moneyyyyyyy $$$$$$$$$$$$$
I love both, and I love to watch her sew. I wouldn't mind if the videos were longer to watch Donna fly through the quilt as she makes each patch. She sews so fast and I'm sure even faster when she's not showing us. She's amazing on that machine!
The bit of darker blue that you sprinkled in that was beautiful. This is an awesome quilt. It looks like a flower garden and I love this. Everything you make is always gorgeous and you are so calm and teach so well. Thanks for another great quilt!!
Donna, love the way you present the information. You never talk down to your audience. You always show us how you do it. That, and the camera work, sets your videos apart from all the others. Thank you for making learning a new skill so much fun. Pat Walling p.s. When I tried to enter the giveaway, the computer said I was trying to subscribe and wouldn’t let me enter.
Not wanting to start an argument here - but just to show there is always one that is a little odd out (me!) I loved it! But of course, we all will pick the fabric that appeals to us, its the pattern that is so beautiful!
I agree with everyone about the fabric. At first I was so surprised by the choice, but, I must say I fell so head over heels in love with the finished quilt I bought the pattern n fabric!!! Haven't started it yet...too many quilts in line in front of it, but, I can't wait till I do start on it! Donna truly has a gift!!! :)
I just started quilting during pandemic. Learned everything I know from Donna. I was always afraid to try but after watch one of her videos I couldn't wait to start working on one
You are awesome! Your tutorials are my favorite because they are easy to understand and follow, and the constant tips you give are time and energy saving. This quilt is beautiful with the prints you chose. Your fingernails are always beautiful, but the faceted one on the ring finger is something I have never seen. Love it and love your tutorials. Keep those tutorials coming.
We look every day to see if you make a quilt. We love watching your quilt show on youtube. It just makes the day so much nicer! Thank you for this. Hubby watches too. Great job!!!
You really are a very passionate and great teacher. I am learning alot from all your wonderful tutorials and always waiting for more. Thank you so much Donna
Donna is like the Bob Ross of quilting. So relaxing, and I have learned so much from her. Thanks Donna. 😁
The best analogy I’ve read so far! Brava!
omg That is so true!
love that analogy!
Oh my gosh yes!
Wow so true
I totally agree!
I watch all your tutorials and anxiously await the next one. You explain things so anyone can understand plus you use examples for those of us who are visual learners. Thanks, Donna and a big Hello to Matt and your staff!
Those ties on fabric bundles or rolls make great ties around a quilt you're giving away.

I finally know what I'm going to quilt with that fat quarter bundle I've been hoarding!
Brilliant as always
My favorite quilting teacher. I have learned so much from watching.
Just spotted this video and i really was amazed how the pattern turned out. Thanks so much for showing and sharing your talents. 🌻
Pretty quilt

I love sewing vicariously through you. All of my seams are cut precisely and match and lay perfectly.
🤣

Danielle Miele I think they’ve already done a video or two about their history in the quilt business. 😀👍
@@trishblakely3476 Really? Do you have a link, 'cause I haven't found it yet!
Trish Blakely I know they did but it wasn’t detailed ...it was just an overview. I’m speaking about a real bio .
Donna thank you for your videos are always great !!❤️❤️❤️
That’s a beautiful quilt Thankyou for showing us xxx
I so appreciate how thorough you are in your instruction! It is so easy for me to go ahead and just make a quilt. No problem. Thank you.
Your workroom is a dream come true 😍😍
I absolutely love this quilt! All your choices were just perfect. I hope one day I can make this quilt for myself, following your specific design choices. 💖

Your videos are so therapeutic.....I just loved this quilt.

Love the fabric used!
I love the sound your sewing machine makes.
I love the sound of the steam iron!
I love both, and I love to watch her sew. I wouldn't mind if the videos were longer to watch Donna fly through the quilt as she makes each patch. She sews so fast and I'm sure even faster when she's not showing us. She's amazing on that machine!
And the sound of the rotary cutter!
I must say, you are really fab and your quilt also, I am in love with your video, so simple to understand every one
The bit of darker blue that you sprinkled in that was beautiful. This is an awesome quilt. It looks like a flower garden and I love this. Everything you make is always gorgeous and you are so calm and teach so well. Thanks for another great quilt!!
Very easy to follow the directions. Thank You 😊
Love your tutorials. Your the best Donna💕💕

Lovely nails Donna
You are always so beautiful Donna. And always a great teacher! Thanks.
Love your videos.
Hi jorden fabric very nice 👍
Loving these colors!!
I LOVE YOU SO MUTCH
I love CQ’s patterns, and I especially love Donna’s take on them. Donna, you always give us great tips and insights. Thank you! Jordan Fabrics rocks!
Boy when you were laying out those fat quarters,... I was like.... yick, no, ugh.. eeek.... but the finished quilt is quite prettty.
No kidding. When I saw that dark pink among the reds, I thought "No way!" But once again, Donna knows what she's doing.
I’m not a huge fan of Riley Blake fabric designs either. But the smaller the cuts, the prettier the fabric gets! 😂

You look fabulous, Donna. I hope you are well.
Yes, I am doing great, thanks!

Impress press on nails!
Great analogy. I get sooo relaxed watching BobRoss same here except I am going to try this.don't think I could oil paint😉😷
I put a piece of painters tape on my cutting line on my ruler and it makes it so much easier to cut tons of triangles.
Beautiful!! There's something so relaxing listening to the long arm stitching out there quilting!! ☺️
We look every day to see if you make a quilt. We love watching your quilt show on youtube. It just makes the day so much nicer! Thank you for this. Hubby watches too. Great job!!!
Diseño muy hermoso, ERES LA MEJOR !!!
Какие блоки красивые у вас получаются❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Спасибо
Just beautiful!
Donna I love that quilt! What fun!!! Flowers, flowers everywhere ♥️
I really enjoy your tutorials as I am new to quilting and you make it very easy to understand.
Everytime Donna cut the ribbon that ties the fat quarters, my heart dies a little....
startertoit I know! I’m always thinking : »please no Donna, save it for future use. » 😊
I literally can feel it cutting through my heart.
Oh, thank you! I thought I was the only one!
Me too!
Same!!!!
Gorgeous colour palette 👌
You are really helping me. Just starting. Made a few top but scared to finish I didn't know how. Till I found your videos.
