    I've just discovered you. Can't sleep so wandered on to you tube for some quilting/sewing tips. I've learnt loads and may go into my new craft room to cut up my charm pack. Thank you Gourmet. You're an excellent teacher and come across as a lovely person. You've inspired me. I shall subscribe xxx

    I think that is BRILLIANT! I love the design in the center of your print out. I have 100's of bright-colored 5" squares left over from a quilt I made years ago. I am going to try this. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the video!

    You're so generous with your knowledge. I also love 5" squares. I am definetly going to try cutting some of mine with a plain color and whip up a baby quilt. Thank you for inspiring many. Yvonne Porter, Farmington Hills, Michigan, USA

    When you started I thought I wouldn't want to do that, but when you showed the various combinations I found I like it!

    Thank you for all of the 5" square demos! I've become a hoarder it seems, almost overnight. It's very helpful to see what you can make with just one charm pack!

    I made my son and daughter in law with this same patter for Christmas last year. I used white ad for the solid color and ther other pick flowers and it turned out so pretty. I hope you have a great week.

    I have a charm pack that I picked up with images from the Nancy Drew mystery novels. I just loved the books as a girl and the fabric made me quite nostalgic. The final zig-zagged layout would be adorable for those prints. I have yardage of black and grey with a magnifying glass to use in place of the white. I'm excited to find a use for those darling squares.

    You are very clever. I believe your sewing machine is a Pfaff, my favorite. You should engage your IDT on your foot. It is a walking foot so both pieces of fabric move through at the same speed.

    Each time I view your creativity I'm amazed. Thank you for sharing with us your great creative mind.i agree with Yvonne you are so generous with your ideas and knowledge! Your arrangement and placement of color is truely a gift.have you taken courses in some college or some place at fabric and it's ways to use it? Your designs with shapes also. I like 5 or 51/2 inch squares.😊 I just watched your boat videos, I really appreciate you sharing your life, besides your abilities. Was your Mom a sewer, crafter? Or just something built in you? We are glad you are doing what your gifted at. Bonnie Bartlow, Modesto, California,USA
