    I can't decide which I like better - Donna's teaching/instructions or James' camera work. So I'm going to have to give both of you five stars. I'm SO impressed with every little angle he chooses for the viewers like myself to enjoy - not only for making Donna's teaching oh so clear, but also for the shear entertainment for my eyes. It's like James knows exactly what I'd want to see if I could be there in person and lean over up close and personal to whatever Donna is doing. Thank you, Jordan Fabrics, for all the preparation you do to make these tutorials so professionally done. I just wish someone out there would set up an annual contest for best quilting videos in different categories so I could vote for you. 😍

      That’s terrific Carolyn, congratulations! As I always like to say to myself, even Martha Stewart had to start somewhere- she just did that as a little girl. We have to give ourselves some leeway, we learn to crawl before we walk. People just learning to paint can’t expect their first canvas to look like a Leonardo Da Vinci masterpiece, so why do we expect our first quilt to look perfect? Enjoy the learning curve!

    Something I have come to appreciate in the year I have been watching is the fact that you don't assume the viewer has been here before. No detail is too small to repeat ( 1/4 inch seam, how to finger press, dry then steam press etc)which makes every video suitable for the beginner or new patchwork artist. And, it is that repetition that has made me a better piecer because I remember those techniques even when I am not working on something from one of your videos. Thank you so much for your consistent instruction and excellent technique! I make a bet with myself on which thread color you will choose for the quilting. My success rate is getting better!

    Another fabulous tutorial, Donna! I can't help but agree with so many of your "fans" below that you are certainly one of the best teachers around. You don't just make it look easy, you actually make it easy! I would love to have seen how the green thread looked on this one, so I guess I'll have to make one and find out. I've used that bright green several times and the results were surprising in that it blended so well with just a pop of color. One thing I'd be interested in knowing is the total time it takes you to make one of your projects. Thank you again so much, and I'm looking forward to visiting your shop in the near future!

    Thank you Donna for making my world and the world a better place. My late Mom taught me how to sew on her now 40 & 50 year young machines. When she passed last year, I brought her machines to my home unsure of what to do w/her beloved friends. Shortly there after, my sewing bug awoke who'd been asleep for 40 years. A quilting friend who lives in Grants Pass told me about Jordan Fabrics. I've just finished my first human sized quilt by watching your Hint of Fall quilt video. You're a natural born artist and teacher. Talking sweetly to us while moving through all the steps to easily make a quilt. Talking while working, pausing your words while your Juki does her work, thank you for inspiring me and giving me a new life. I have a theory, when Donna gets to roaring away on her Juki, there's no telling where she'll end up, but I know it'll be GREAT!!! Bless you and love to you all from me in the Seattle area. XOXO

      Suzy S, I encourage you to find some “free motion quilting” on a domestic sewing machine tutorial videos on TH-cam. It is not “easy” to manhandle a large quilt in a domestic machine, but it is doable. Even simple wavy lines will work (that’s what I did on my first quilt which was a jelly roll race 2 design). If you can’t reach the centre of your quilt with your machine, consider hand-quilting in the centre and then machine quilting the outer third or so, which is what I did on my second quilt. Neither recipient gave it back saying they didn’t like it because the quilting wasn’t perfect! 😁

    I learned how to quilt by watching Alex Anderson on HGTV, (I just dated myself) many years ago. I am basically self taught, but like many others who have commented, I am grateful for the talent that you share. This was a beautifully done quilt, but you explain it so well and make all of these quilts do-able. I also am a big fan of the Cozy Quilts patterns. They really are easy to follow. Many Thanks! This is another quilt to add to my "to do" list!

    I love this quilt. I'd be tempted to fussy cut the featured squares to highlight a single flower or object!

    • @jordanfabrics8380
      @jordanfabrics8380  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The focus fabric gets cut into strips which get sewn to other strips so it is not possible to fussy cut the blocks.

    I LOVE this quilt and pattern! And, Donna, great color choices. This pattern has just made it to the top of "Quilts I must make immediately" list. And, Ladies, if you haven't purchased the Cozy Quilts Strip Tube Ruler, get it now. I just made my first quilt using this ruler, and it came out perfectly - amazing! I own the large Strip Tube Ruler (I can cut small to large tubes), and it comes in a smaller size as well. It is sooo easy to use, and your cut block sizes come out PERFECT (no squaring up blocks if you cut correctly - an incredible time, back, hands and wrist saver!). Thus ruler is a must have! Thanks, Donna, another great vid. Lindsay, Sacramento❣

The quilt is truly beautiful and ful of springtime joy. Ms. Donna, I appreciate your explanations paired with excellent video. Great job! Thanks so much for sharing... blessings to all y'all.

    • @HRHDMKYT
      @HRHDMKYT 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe TH-cam sends “Recommended for you” links to the wrong viewers, and “thumbs down” is how they show their displeasure - to TH-cam, not the person posting the video. Still, I guess those people were never taught “if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all” !

    My husband and I had plans to go early to our favorite coffee shop this morning. And then I came into TH-cam and saw this new video. The date with my husband can wait until the video is over. Thank goodness Joe is so easy going! He knows how I am with new videos from Donna Jordan! This is a really pretty quilt and I thank you for sharing it. I love your method of teaching us all how to make quilts. I especially like the way you teach us all how to iron! Thank you so much for all you do!

    Your such an awesome teacher. Very inspiring and I can’t wait to watch every video your son and you make. I love the hand cutting strip kits Etc that your husband Matt cuts out. It’s amazing how the quilt blocks come together as you teach and sew. Such an awesome Family business. I’ve learned so much by watching as you sew and teach all of us patiently how to sew compose with color and smashing binding & quilting as if a canvas of art sewn together block by block right before our eyes also sharing the shortcuts. Finishing the quilt in a timely manner. Beautiful work well done. Jordan Fabrics Family Run Business…Thank You All So Much. 💜💜💜

  • @patl869
    @patl869 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm so glad I saw this video before I purchased the pattern. From the cover shot it looked like the focus fabric was going to be a fussy cut square with triangle strips on the sides. It does get my creative brain cells working.

    • @HRHDMKYT
      @HRHDMKYT 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree, Pat. And I was just thinking that I like the look of this quilt, but would like to keep my focus fabric whole in those blocks... so I would make this quilt another way, keeping the background squares whole in those alternate blocks as well. Shouldn’t be too difficult. (I do like Cozy Quilt patterns and have bought many thanks to seeing them in Donna’s tutorials, as well as the Strip Tube ruler, but I don’t always like how the blocks end up being cut up/re-assembled. Sometimes, like in this one, the seams are not where I’d want them).
