    I truly like the way your “mistake” turned out than the original pattern. Just seems to look so much better at the edges with all those points facing out.

      I agree I also like that way more

      I really like it too… on the Christmas quilt it reminds me of a ribbon 🥰 honestly I like it better.

      Agreed!

    I like the “mistake” better than how the pattern was written, of course, I like all of your quilts.

      Yea it looks like presents on the edge of the quilt center

    • @Kelly-ui5zm
      @Kelly-ui5zm 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yes, I like it better too! It look like the ends of ribbons.

    • @sandidew3033
      @sandidew3033 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Me too! I really like the “mistake” better and think I will do that when I make mine!

    • @mrsmcdonald9363
      @mrsmcdonald9363 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Me, too. It looks like the tail of a ribbon.

    • @achevres
      @achevres 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Another vote for the “mistake.” The ribbon ends go better with the star points. The blunt end stops the flow.

  • @kathyeubanks5524
    @kathyeubanks5524 3 ปีที่แล้ว +72

    I don’t see the ‘mistake’; I see a cohesive series of points around the perimeter of the quilt. It’s much more pleasing to the eye. Thanks again, Donna, for another brilliant interpretation of a Cozy Quilt Designs pattern! ❤️

  • @angieallen4884
    @angieallen4884 3 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    Painter bob Ross always said, "There are no mistakes, only happy little accidents!" I love how the quilt turned out with your design change! I like the original design with the 2ndary diamond pattern, too. Always love your tutorials; thanks so much for sharing your time and talents.

  • @rvictor46
    @rvictor46 3 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    I so appreciate how Donna handles her “mistake” in this quilt. Anyone who has ever made a quilt and then noticed something “not quite right” will appreciate her support for all things quilting. These tutorials are so clear, so well done - thank you Donna and Jordan Fabrics!

    • @beckymendoza6307
      @beckymendoza6307 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes! Love her so much. It’s nice to see even experienced quilters make little mistakes here and there. Never edits it out. Love that about her.

    I’ve been looking for a star quilt pattern that is beginner friendly and uses a jelly roll and low and behold Jordan Fabrics delivers! Thank you so much Donna!!! I like the mistake too as it looks like a Christmas ribbon 🎀

  • @traceyhonig4461
    @traceyhonig4461 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Mistake or not, it is a beautiful quilt! Another pattern for me to hunt for. The wall hanging would be great in neutral colors to keep up all year long! I love looking forward to new tutorials to watch with my coffee on Saturday mornings! 🍁🧵

  • @wilycat5290
    @wilycat5290 3 ปีที่แล้ว +26

    LOL I like your "mistake" version better than the pattern's version! I really like this quilt. Your colors and fabric patterns are perfect. Thanks for another beautiful quilting video. 😊 👍 💕

    • @liletskyr2998

    Thank you Donna, it’s a beautiful quilt. Thank you for showing that “mistakes” are part of the creative process and nothing to worry about. It makes a big difference to see someone like you with a healthy attitude.

  • @daynablankenship3508
    @daynablankenship3508 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I like that the "mistake" makes the ends look like ribbon edge. I think it looks better your way. Love the fabric!

    I love the way you put the ends. To me it looks like ribbons. I like it better than the way they supposed to go. I love watching your tutorials

  • @gailnash298
    @gailnash298 3 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    Actually, I would make this quilt with "your mistake" instead of the pattern. The points on the outside match your star points. A much better finish than the "correct" way. Beautiful quilt, and beautiful fabric selection. I will order this pattern. I have so many jelly rolls to choose from! Thanks for another great tutorial👍!

  • @gillygillyyt55
    @gillygillyyt55 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @alysonbaker939
    @alysonbaker939 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I like the mistake on the Christmas quilt. To me it looks like the ends of ribbon, gift wrap. Love your shows. I learn so much. You are a super teacher. Thanks.

  • @kimberlye2996
    @kimberlye2996 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I like the way you did it because it makes it look like each one is the end of a ribbon, which seems more like Christmas.

  • @julieenslow5915
    @julieenslow5915 3 ปีที่แล้ว +21

    When I wrap a package, I often put ribbon around it and then a bow with two tails. I do the tails just like that piece that you put the opposite way - in the orientation just as you did it. I thought that was what you were doing to finish the edge without starting a partial star, and that made perfect sense to me. Love it both ways!

  • @nancyschaefer8910
    @nancyschaefer8910 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love Christmas quilts, especially those with stars. This one's going into my queue! I really like your strategy of making the blocks with grey, black, and green stars, with all red sashing stars; it makes the layout flow beautifully. Thank you, Donna, for making this approachable for newer quilters.

  • @sheilacarroll7143

    Fun quilt! I noticed the mistake while you were laying it out and went back to the beginning to see how it was supposed to look. Then I fast forwarded to see if you would notice before you finished. LOL. It is still a very pretty quilt - I like the freshness of the white background. The give away quilt is gorgeous. Very classy. However, I need another quilt in my home like I need a hole in my head! Thanks for the tutorial. You always do such a good job!

    Love the quilt, the mistake just personalized it. I also love your camera work, I enjoy watching you sew. There are quilters who just show where to sew, but don’t actually let us see the sewing itself. I love the way you zoom in on it and we get to see and hear the Maschine. 👍🏻

  • @sherrieberry5795
    @sherrieberry5795 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    thank-you Donna for your wonderful easy to follow videos, they have made it so much easier to piece a quilt. your fabrics are just perfect. no such thing as a mistake, my late husband would say when we were driving and too a wrong turn that we were taking the scenic route, so with quilting i would say a mistake adds a character to the quilt.

  • @Happybidr
    @Happybidr 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Boy, I really like the way you did it, because I think the “diamonds” overwhelmed the rest of the design too much. Your version blended in well with the overall design and even looked like the ends of a ribbon, which matched the Christmas theme beautifully. I am really excited that I can use up some of my existing jelly rolls!

  • @maryannecadd796
    @maryannecadd796 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This pattern is very ingenious in the way the stars are made. Cozy quilts are really well done patterns. I would not have noticed the "mistake" if you hadn't pointed it out. I agree, I wouldn't worry when these things happen. It's beautiful how it turned out!
