    Donna all your quilts are beautiful and I love it when you do it in a light background and a coloured background. It gives me plenty of food for thought. Thanks to everyone in your team for all your hard work.

    Love the colored background. Thank you for sharing your pattern. You are the only one who teaches about the grain of the fabric, so the quilt lays flat. Thank you!

      I can’t figure out how to add the side triangles. Help!!

    • @nannettjordan671
      @nannettjordan671 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@KateGas you need to add the triangles as part of each row. So when you lay out your pieces on a design wall or a spare bed, you'll be able to see what side of the triangle that needs to be sewn to the row. Once each row is sewn, then you sew rows together. It's best to sew one half the quilt top then the next. The
      Last part is to sew the two halves together

    I have become addicted to your videos! I don't even try to get rid of yours because it is so fascinating watching again and again.

    @LAUREL5784 5 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    I LOVE this new pattern! I loved the look of the first one, with the linen-look cottons and that curvy quilting over the geometric lines... but then the Moda floral is soo beautiful.. looks completely different! (I will have to choose BOTH)

  • @lutsen110
    @lutsen110 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I love this quilt! You are such an inspiration to me and an amazing teacher, Donna - you explain slowly and clearly, give the WHY to your technique and just have the most efficient methods. I look forward to each new video - from ‘shopping’ for fabrics to the finished quilt. Thank you!

    I am new to this channel, saw the first video yesterday and fell in love. Ms Jordan is an excellent teacher. She makes it look easy. Made a log cabin quilt top from a class in a day 30 years ago and had forgotten everything. My grandma was an avid quilter, she tried to get me interested, but i never wanted to. Now i love watching this fabulous teacher breaking down the mysteries!!!

    Love it!! Thank you for the free pattern!! I've been wanting to make something for our coach. This makes me think of State Swimming and Diving Conference with all the lanes. I think I'll try it with a blue back ground for water and then the lane ropes. Donna, you are amazing. You inspire me with every video!!
