You are my star for the time when I have a rest or I am tired or sad. Even though I am from the other side of the ocean, from the Czech Republic I love sewing and especially patchwork for a long time. I found your tutorials about four years ago and since that I have loved them. For me it is a very pleasant way how to improve my listening skills in English and how to improve my sewing skills as well. Sitting with a cup of coffee, listening to one of your brilliant tutorials or looking at your fantastic fabrics in your shop, it is really the best way of spending my free time. I admire you and I thank you.
Blanka Kucerova Thanks so much Blanka. We love having overseas friends! Have a fantastic day!
My mother-in-law and I just love the Illusion Block Quilt. We can't wait to make it. We are in awe of every quilt you make and look forward to every tutorial you do. It makes our day when we get a new one to watch. Thank you so much for taking your time to share with all your viewers easier ways to put a beautiful quilt together!!
I made thhis wit black grey and white. Turned out so good. Have several wanting the pattern.
How easy is That??? Now I know what to do with all those layer cakes I've been collecting. I be you could make two lap quilts out of one layer cake if you added a border. Thank you, Jenny!!
I have love this patterns for years but thought it was to difficult, not now. Thanks for breaking it down into simple steps.
My DH would be so proud of it. This is a great guy quilt and it's a lot easier than it looks. Thanks for taking the fear out of quilting. Love all your tutorials.
I think this is the one to make for my group at church to raffle off. Beautiful. I hope I can do it justice. Love love love your tutorials!
MsBootheel We're certain you will do it justice! Your church group will love it!
I'm making this quilt for my son and his wife for their 10th anniversary in November. I'm using the That's A Moire 10" squares by Whistler Studios, and white and silver skinny strips. I have the blocks done and am now to the point of laying out the quilt top. Having a great time.
I made this quilt for my granddaughter, she will be getting it for Christmas. I Love it!, Would recommend this pattern to any one, it is so easy to do, and looks great.
I am following your directions but using 5X5 blocks. This is so neat and easy. Thank you for the tutorial.
Me gusta este block porque es muy fácil.Ella explica muy bien.No hablo inglés pero lo entiendo. Saludos desde Costa RIca!
My grandson will love it, I am starting on this quilt tomorrow and hope to have it done for Christmas!!!!
Making this quilt out of my husband's shirts, memory quilt for his grandson, it's turning out great. Fyi beginner quilter here.
Love the dimensionality of this quilt! That is easy is icing on the cake!
A thousand years later... This is SO CLEVER❣️❣️❣️
I think this has a really modern look!!!!!! But I think child's would love it too.......that is so clever, and again yet easy to put together, you are by far the best teacher I've ever seen. Thank you so much for all your hard work
I made this last week based off of your tutorial. Sew easy!! Thanks for such clear instructions.
I watched this a week ago and then went on a quilt retreat with the supplies and banged out this quilt. It turned out so beautiful. Can not wait to make another.
I just made this quilt using some medium and dark blue batiks - it was really fast and easy and it turned out great!
My first granddaughter is going to college this year! Her style is very modern and I'm making this quilt for her with a layer cake of ocean nation (her favorite colors). I'm a confident beginner and I want her to have a piece of family with her when she goes away in the fall. Love your videos, watch at least a couple every day!!!
That would make an excellent beginners quilt....teaching chain piecing and sewing straight....no mitered borders or complicated piecing...Love it
I mad one of these for my daughter in soft yellow, tans and white an it is one of the favorites. I am thinking of making one with a layer cake of southwest pattern designs but would need to put a wider sashing on the sides to make it a bit larger. You have such neat tutorials. Thanks
love your stuff as always Jenny, now to cut my bits and get sewing
I also love this quilt and the way the pattern is formed
Love it ...i have seen it ....in black shadow...the lady called ..".my shadow and i"
I started this pattern. Once you get the hang of it, it gets easier. Cut everything you need first, stack & put aside; start adding 1.5" bits to all your greys, re-stack. Then sew all pieces with long grey/white strip, put aside, etc. I find this way, is not as boring. M.
It always amazes me what optical illusions you can create with these quilt blocks. Simply amazing.
Hi Jenny, you put me into a dilema every friday! Every friday "I say this is it I'll make this one". But this missourri star is a winner! I will deffinetaly make this one! Thank you very much for tour weekly tutorials!
I love this quilt! It looks so good, the blocks seem to be floating. Fantastic tutorial as always, Jenny. Thank you for making quilting not scary! :-)
thank your new block it very good n very nice....i lake it...
Love the way the colors look like they pop off the quilt. Just beautiful Jenny!
Well, I would love to make the illusion Quilt for myself ......but I can honestly see making at least 2 of these quilts.....Not to mention I am going to order fabric for the Present Quilt. Jenny & family do such a great job....the videos are easy to follow, I wish I had known about MSQC a few years back....I probably would have made more quilts by now. I have made table runners, bags,a baby quilt ( 9 patch ) and now plan on making quilts for myself and my family.
I love this. As a beginner quilter it makes it look so very easy. I will be trying this soon. Thank you for making everything look so easy.
Hey Laurie,
We are so glad that you and your mother love the tutorials! The Illusion Quilt is so much fun :)
This was by far my favorite . ..I would keep it for me!
This is one of my favorite MSQC tutorials, because it's the perfect pattern to highlight large scale fabrics. My 2016 goal is to make this quilt using Tula Pink's Bumble fabric.
What new fresh, fun idea ... I like it ...
I just LOVE the 3-d effect! Gotta make this one.
SOOOO EASY got to do this! Warm up that machine girls!
So glad that you like it! This would be awesome in Christmas fabric :)
Hey Maria,
Thanks so much! We are so glad that you love the tutorials :)
I like it much. Guess I'll try this one with squares instead of rectangles.
This is such a cool quick pattern. Thanks Jenny 💜
I love, Love, LOVE this quilt! I bet it would also be gorgeous in shadowed SQUARES too!
Can't wait to give this a try! Thanks for all of you clear, concise and easy to follow directions.
Beautiful quilt! And a good pattern to adapt for every season. It would also fit into a young couple's modern décor, so this is definitely one I'll also consider making as a gift!
OMG This is a must try.
Mrs.Jenny I want to let you know do to your videos I have learned so much and enjoy all your demos, you encourage me to want to continue to learn more on quilting, and cant wait to start a new project, like having you at my side cheering me on. Thanks a BIG FAN, Olympia
Olympia Jasper Hi, I feel exactly the same! 😎🌸
Olympia Jasper I also feel the same way. I have been quilting for 20 years but took a break for school. Jenny has made quilting fun for me again. Love Jenny.
I sometimes go to her tutorials when I need to get motivated to get sewing.
I am planning a Star Wars quilt with this pattern. I like that the blocks will 'float'.
im doing a Dr. Who for my grandson... i put it on my design wall and it didnt look like it was floating, i took a picuture of it then i could see the floating!!
That is what I am doing with this pattern.
I am planning a star wars quilt, I don’t suppose you have a photo
This is a beautiful bright quilt behind you. So easy to do. Think it just hit the top of my to do list. Thanks for another great tutorial..
Its soooooooooooooooooo...........most beautiful quilt ever. God bless your work
I just love you Jen ! You make it seem so EASY ! My second time watching this tutorial. Now to go and pick out my fabrics ! Thank you - God bless you for the JOY you bring to so many !
Thank your new block it very good n very nice.
Beautiful block was sad not knowing what to do to give me the pleasure enjoyed drawing this will be my next projecto.thank for your kindness to teach
About to try this now...just rewatched video to make sure I remembered right...:)
I would sew the white and grey together and strip piece it then cut to width so there is less sewing.
Thank you Jenny. So many fun quilts, so little time. ;) This is the next on my list!
Love this Quilt, made it and it was beautiful.
Love this quilt. It looks so easy and I am so glad I came across this pattern. I have a 10 layer cake that will be perfect for this. All I need to do is get the gray as I already have the 1 1/2" strips. Thanks Jenny. Love all your tutorials.
If you sew a 9inch strip to a 1 1/2inch strip then you can subcut it into your 1 1/2 inch segment . Do the same with the 5 inch grey and 1 1/2 inch white. It makes things so much faster.
Beautiful. Can't wait to make it.
Thanks Ronda! Make sure and share it with us when you do! info@missouriquiltco.com
How would I download it for you to see it. I did the huge "star" quilt you had a video on and it's beautiful. You make it so easy for us. Thank you. I've also made a few quilts now using the method of sewing two squares together, marking from corner to corner and during on those lines only on one side. They also are beautiful and easy.
Thank you for sharing l love it
Doing this now with a bit smaller blocks but it’s going together great. Thanks for this wonderful tutorial!
My favorite so far! I've watched quite a few of these, made a couple, but this is my favorite because it's so beautiful and so easy to make! Very quick gratification on this one!
Your talent always amazes me. This is stunning. I love the bright colors. I'm going to have to retire just to catch up on all the projects I want to make. Lol
That's how I feel
That is how I feel too! I just recently got into quilting and I must say it is very addicting!
Gosto muito de seus vídeos! Obrigada por compartilhar conosco!. Lindo bloco!.
I simply love this quilt. Jenny have you sewn this illusion quilt using floral fabrics? I wonder if it will be just as stunning as using solid colours.
I am making it with "Good Company", which has lots of florals. It's looking like it'll be really pretty.
What a fun and great looking quilt! As always I am so eager to see your new ideas. Thanks so much. Ginny
Will make this for my son Jay Dee, Christmas gift.
Me gusta mucho, gracias por compartir sus conocimientos
OMG I am in love with this design. I've been looking for a pattern my late in his teens son would enjoy and this is it! A hearty Thank You!!
My teenage grandkids love this pattern!
Destined to be ANOTHER one of my favorite patterns from MSQC!! I may just start on this today!
Stitching the blocks together to create the rows is pretty easy. It's stitching the rows together that gets a little tricky. You need to press that final bottom border of each block up or down so you can can "nest" seams of one row to another row. Hope,this isn't too confusing.
Can you explain?
Thanks June! So glad that you love it!
wow, ,love this pattern, would look great on my living-room wall.......looks easy enough.....great channel, I always come back here.
This is fantastic!
Wow that's fabulous I love it ....Thank you for making quilting easy, and fun ,. I have a few mates that have started quilting and said if you want to learn how to quilt properly you must watch your videos...
Thanks Julie! We are so happy to have you as part of the MSQC family!
Harikalar yaratiyorsunuz
Thanks Zerrin! We hope your day is fantastic!
One of my favorites. Looking forward to making it.
Beautiful block
Omg what a great design for a quilt,you make this look so easy to do. Thank you 🌷🌷🌷
Hi and thanks a lot ! It’s always so si pls with you! The quilt is gorgeous! 😎🌸
Love this quilt. I have already made two!
This is awesome! I'm thinking a few of these squares would lend themselves nicely to some fussy cuts! Still working on my Half Square Triangle Around the World quilt, but ALWAYS looking for my next project😊 Love your tutorials, Jenny😘🙋
great quilt!!!
LOVE THE QUILT I HAVE A NEAT LAYER CAKE. WILL MAKE WHEN I GET TIME WAS IN YOUR SHOP ON THRUSDAY WAS WORTH THE TRIP. EVERYONE WAS SO HELPFUL., WISH IT WAS NOT SO FAR TO GO, MARY
Love this quilt and the instructor. I am in the process of making one now and I can’t wait to see it done. Thanks for making quilting so easy and fun. Love all your videos.
Instead of cutting so many 1.5 inch blocks, sew a 1.5 inch strip of white down the side of a 5 inch and a 9 inch strip of gray and cut your 1.5 inch strips from those. No tiny blocks to sew!
I'm not clear .. dah?
I found it easier doing it the way you said
Anthony Rieke that’s what I did. So much easier!
Anthony Rieke Thanks for that tip! Very helpful. 👍🏻👍🏻
That's just what I was thinking, glad to hear it worked.
Love this one. Looks so easy. Thanks Jenny
Love this block, it floats so well! Thanks Jenny
Love how it looks! Quick and easy. ❤️
another great blk that's Jenny for sharing with us June from IA
I got my material and I'm starting it today. Can't wait!!!!! Thank you so much.
I always enjoy watching your tutorials. You make everything seem so easy. Love your sweet spirit. :)
I made this quilt, using a different 10" pkt. Turned out just great. Only problem is it is not wide enough for a queen. I am going to add borders to both sides to make width enough. But, I love how it came out.
I am new to quilting and found this tutorial a bit hard to follow though I just love your enthusiasm and how you make it look easy. I am looking forward to starting this project but have a question? How many gray and white strips do you make? For us newbies who follow you, maybe you can say how many blocks and the size of each finished block should be?
This looks so easy the way Jenny shows it. Was always a little intimidated by the "shadow". Think that I would add the 1½ inch white as a strip to a 9 inch grey and then subcut into the 1½" wide sections instead of adding the small 1½" white squares individually. The same to the 5 inch strip for the bottom.
Fabulous! I wonder, since you are making so many sets of sashing for the left side, would it save cutting and sewing time to cut the gray 9" WOF, then sew a white strip 1.5" WOF to it, and then cut the gray/white set into 1.5" strips...instead of cutting all those white squares ( 84 of them) and sewing onto gray strips individually? And the same for the shorter gray strips and 84 more white squares.
That is what I did. Works great.
Toots Brown Where's your picture of it? It would be great to see it.
Toots Brown I LOVE your name! I actually grew up with an Aunt Toots. I miss her.
My son would love this quilt
I am doing this as an I spy Quilt for a new baby boy to learn from. From bikes to cookies to monkeys and more. Thanks for the video and The Block.
Love this pattern
OMG! New video! Yes!!!! Thank you!!!!!
