I know that we all have had moments when we are too afraid to cut our fabric. I wish I could have you all in for a workshop but this video will have to do.
🙏 for your son 🌹
Thank you
Well, you could do a workshop and we could all fly to Toronto!!!!! . . . but the virus. Oops. Maybe someday.
I think we’ve been so saturated with matchy matchy prints it’s hard in the beginning to break out of collections & bundles with confidence. I love your videos. They’re informative without being “my way is the only way’. Love love love your hair!
That would be a very big class !!
Hope your son is doing well. 👍😎
Super, super, super. I am so grateful you come to my house. And I agree, you are looking great too!
Hello Peggy
I'm a sewer, not a quilter and I still watch your videos!
Thank you
I think I gravitate to scrappy quilts because of my total lack of knowledge in this area, and the fact, this is one hobby I want to enjoy and not obsess over.
Yes me too. I’m as inspired by the ladies of Gee’s Bend as I am with Karen. I will continue to make the designs that my heart tells me. But I watch Karen’s organized, logical and very watchable videos. Perhaps by osmosis.
To a fabulous teacher. I’m in Tx. So wish we were closer. I am in the process of teaching a 16 yer old to quilt, so after each session I remind her to watch your show. Starting with the first ones. They are so informative. Keep up the great work. Your fellow quilters Gloria.☝️🧵✝️❤️
You go girl! 150,000!
That quilt is beautiful. You chose very well. I like your hair also.
Its so reassuring when you say "stick with me and I'll show you how to do it". Ahhh. ☺
I love your videos. You are a good teacher.
By the way, I really like how your hair is looking.
Judy Wymore I was going to say the same thing!! I’m liking how her natural gray is coming in. Looks so nice!
agree!!! Looking silver foxy Karen!
I was going to make the same comment. It somehow makes her look younger...
Same thought here... looks great!!
Exactly what I was going to say! Like your hair before, Karen, but it's looking great now! I know that appearance is not important in the grand scheme of things, but a lot of women are dealing with hair issues thanks to quarantine and it's nice to receive compliments...
Thank's! Have a nice day!
Oh my goodness! You are so darned organized!!! One box for every color hue!?!?! This puts you in the Wonder Woman category🦸🏼♀️!! You look very refreshed today - red is a good color for you.
30 seconds in and have to say...you look FABULOUS!
And now...I have a desire to pull a mess of uglies and make another "Walk Around The Park". Thanks Karen.
😊 thank you
How much do I love your VIDEOS!!!!?!😂❤😂
This video is so great!! Made me think AND made me laugh! Thanks so much!!💙💚💛
Thank you so very much for this video . I often struggle with choosing fabrics . I know I will reference this video time and time again !
Your videos are very good! I am an experianced quilter of 70 who has been quilting by hand for 45 years and I must say your videos are so simple, clear and easy to understand! You are a great teacher.
Thank you very much.
I love your videos. You have a lovely calming voice which gives me confidence to try new things.
You are looking good Karen.
You are a frickin' rockstar! Thank you! Fast, Fun & Informative information.
Thanks for watching!
Love your videos. Absolutely love your red hst wall hanging, can't stop analyzing it.
I love your videos and am trying to watch ALL of them.
Your tip about taking a black and white foto has been such a big help for me!
Love your videos and LOVE your hair. You look beautiful. You never need to color it.
Oh thank you!
Love your videos. You’ve been such a help for me. Your enthusiasm is contagious. Thank you 🙏
You are amazing. I always learn from you and am inspired by you. ❤️
Rewatching and taking notes!
Speaking of color.....those red tones look fabulous on you!
This red has always been my colour 😎
Thank you for another informative video. Besides all that....want to say you look radiant, your hair "fits" you. Style and color.
Thank you. I think I have one more week until I need to cut it
Nothing about quilts, but had to tell you. You look great today!!!
Thank you
Your Meadowland turned out great!
Karen!!! I love love your hair!!! 😁😁. And YOU are my fav TH-cam ❤️
😊 thank you
Thank you. Nice greetings from Germany 🤗🌸🙂
✋
The number of times I've determined that a fabric isn't "quite right" and I've gone off to the quilt stores to buy more! Staying "safe at home" has certainly helped me to "trust in the pattern" ! Enjoyed this tutorial very much.
I too have been forced into decisions lately
You look fabulous! The video was also informative, but that was what struck me hardest - how great you look!
😊
Karen, your haircut in this video is lovely. It’s soft and frames your face so well and works great with your eyes and glasses, and complements your ears and earrings.
Your hair looks great! Thanks for a great video!
I love your hair! I really really love watching your tutorials!!
Thank you
Karen youre amazing!!! 🤓I thought *I* was the most organized, but no, its 😘YOU! Thanks for posting this ❤
Thank you Karen. Very helpful video.
This video made me laugh so hard !!🤣
Thank you for that
When ever a day is to long or stressful
This is my video to watch
I got so happy watching it!
I love quilting n playing with fabric!
Really enjoy all your videos
But this one helps me relax with laughter n love
Thank you
Love your videos tutorials. You really know your fabric and sewing and quilting. You are so helpful in all aspect of my quilting. Thank you so much from Innisfil Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Love your hair Karen! Great video as always!
I must admit it shocked me when I went to edit.
Yes your hair is looking good😊
I just love watching your videos you say out loud what I think in my head!!!!
Your Meadowland quilt turned out beautiful!❤️
Thank you
I only just found you but I needed this post as I have been stuck in the overthinking spiral for waaay too long. Thank you so much 👍🏻
I love your hair. It is coming it beautiful
I enjoy your videos. You are a good teacher and source of encouragement. Your sense of humor shows, too.
Thanks for all your great advice! Very helpful
Love your hair! Let nature take it's course!!!
Totally love your hair
I think what I like so much about you and your channel is, of all the countless channels that show you how to make cute things, you go deeper. You teach more fundamental skills that so many of us don’t consider. Thank you so much!!!
😊 thank you
I've watched most your videos and just found this that I hadn't. In LESS than two years you have more than doubled your subscribers. At the beginning, you state you are 'so close to 150 subscribers'. As far as I'm concerned it should be a million!!
Wow, thank you!
The most beautiful quilt I've ever seen was made by hand by my great grandmother who was a Choctaw native American. She used scraps of cloth left over from the clothes she made for her family. She used no pattern, no color theory, just stiched them together randomly. It was the most precious thing ever. Over the years it saw so much use that it finally deteriorated and had to be discarded. A sad day indeed. I sorely wish I had a picture of it.
It sounds special
What a treasure!
Gosh I learn so much from you. You’re a good teacher.
Hello pam
Love your hair! It makes you look younger. Looking good girl! Thanks for your tips!
Really? Thx
Hello Nancy
I like your hair this way...looks good!
You are an inspirational teacher. So enjoy your channel.
Thank you
Thank you so much for this video this is always the most daunting task for me to complete!
Great tips . Love the hair. X
GREAT information! And BTW.... I am loving your hair. 😉
Caren (Karen), I really love your videos, have been watching you for a while, you have so many good ideas, but what I love best is your enthusiasm!!!! You are so much fun to watch and to listen to, you always make my day! Thanks so much.
Hello Carolyn
I have only made 4 quilts by hand having Never made a quilt and never having tube. Oh if only I had then, this knowledge. So now my 7 year old puppy got her own quilt. She was so excited!. She loves laying on the couch with me and my quilt. So when she got her own, she was a happy girl! I feel way over my head watching these but ur very funny and enjoy them. Thank you!
Your hair looks MAHVALOUS! ☺️
😊
A very helpful video. And you look fantastic! Retirement is agreeing with you!
I just began watching your videos. Im not good at sewing but your personality really drew me in. I'm going to try this quilting thing. I sew on hand.
Thank you - I love your videos 👍 (and I also love your hair 😊)
Yes! Keep your hair like this! It's lovely on you, so flattering.
All of your vids & vlog posts are terrific, inspiring & fun. But really, your hair though. Too cute. You bring me joy.
I learn so much from you... a little at a time. Thanks for posting.
I learn in spite of myself. You are a good teacher. I make every mistake you point out but I usually do not do it again after your session.
Mistakes are part of the journey. We should have a bingo card 😎
Looking good, Karen ! Hair colour working for you - youthful. Of course, the information is helpful as usual.
Holey moley ! 😱 You just describe me to a tee. I procrastinate and hesitate ... all the while prolonging the inevitable .... it takes a whole mighty lot of persuasion to get started. I will just have to bite the bullet and finally start on making a quilt.
Thank you for some of the best tutorials that are out there ! Luvya lotz Karen 🥰️❤️️💕😍😘
Karen I like the colour of your hair and the style!
Wow!Karen as always your videos are inspiring😀Thank Karen🌻👍
Your hair looks so nice! Way to go gray girl🌻nobody got time for that🤗
Karen, off topic but your peppery hair and that red/white top look AMAZING. I know you touched on the subject on your live video recently. I just wanted to encourage you to GO FOR IT. :) Now, I can't wait to watch this latest video because you are speaking right to me! Cannot decide what to do with my fabrics and afraid to cut for fear I'll make a mistake. Thanks for everything.
Your quilt turned out lovely. You are right set a timeline and the fidgeting stops, the quilting starts and progress starts. Thank you Karen, really enjoy your podcasts, 🌻
I pray I'll get as organized as you are, someday. ☺️
I have always watched you on TH-cam -- this Facebook feed is much better. I love your approach! You have inspired me to use up what I have on hand and not buy-buy-buy. So thank you!
Ohhhhhhh...that is me. THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH
Oh man! You nailed the last one for me. Often, I look at the fabric and debate with myself because "the fabric is soooo pretty"..."what if I waste it:...., and so on. 😱🙄
Thank you for encouragements 🌸🌸🌸🪲👍. Your videos are so helpful!👍👍👍
It is a common struggle but we all need to use those lovely fabrics!
I came across this site by accident, and I am totally hooked. This video is especially helpful because I struggle with color and values, in quilting and in watercolor painting. The use of black and white photos will be very helpful.
Thank you. Fabric stash, here I come! Well, maybe after just one more video...
I like your hair! Very nice.
Thanks for the encouragement! Love your videos, and love the natural color of your hair...seriously. It looks great!
You have me hooked on Tula Pink's fabrics. I don't have a lot of fabric sources other than Joann's without driving 50 miles. Jordan Fabrics gave me Kaffe Fasset. LOL
Love your videos, and I absolutely love your new look!
Thx
Hi there Karen I'm sitting here really listening lol lol (smiles)xx
I'm a fan of the gray. It looks great.
I want to thank you for doing these videos. You chose a niche for emphasis that no one else was doing - not the tools, not the overall design, not the quilting. You chose how to do all the small steps for a successful outcome. It is SOOOO helpful. And, your videos are so understandable. I have watched some 2 or 3 times, but that was me not you (color theory, i.e.). This video is especially helpful. I have LOTS of patterns and LOTS of fabric, but Could Not Cut. This will get me going.
Love watching your tutorials huggssss xxx
Where have you been all my sewing life? I struggle with everything you mentioned about making decisions on how to choose fabrics. I am having a great time watching your videos and am learning so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
The more we do the better we get at it. Live this! Thank you.
I love all your videos.
Thank you so much for this! I always feel so empowered after watching your videos 😆💪👏
Completely unrelated to how much I LOVE YOUR HAIR... I am learning so much from you!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you
First of all, how is your son? I love your hair! It looks really good, I love all your videos, we are headed to the lake & i am taking my sewing machine, so I can make a very hard effort to finish my UFO's. Thanks for all you do to continue to educate me, I have been sewing for many yrs and i always learn something new when I see your videos, again thanks.
This was very helpful. You look so much happier today and your smiling face brightened up my day. Thanks I needed that. It’s not always about quilts it’s community that makes this special.
Community ✋
Greetings from Germany ! Thank you so much vor your advice and knowledge🥰
You are so right. I’d seen all my life when I started quilting 20 years ago. I didn’t realize how important the community would become in my life. It’s been super!
I noticed that too. Good to see 😊👍💕
