Excellent! Just found you- will be back
Thank you! 🙏
Beautiful job… Jen Kingwell is one of my favourite designers as are her daughter, Lulu Well for Sunspell’s designs. Proud Aussie here : ) Will have to add this pattern to my collection for sure 🪡🧵💕
All of her designs are great! I need to check out her daughter’s designs I suppose.
I enjoyed watching your video of your thought process and how you implemented that. Just a thought about your appliqué technique which you seemed to make a little more difficult than it needed to be. Check out Monica Poole’s “scrapplique” technique. I think it would have suited for this project. She is able to do pretty intricate shapes with raw edges. She is Pattern Poole TV in Australia if you want to check it out.
Thank you! I’ll look her up.
Beautiful work ❤❤
Thank you!
Beautiful quilt.
Thank you 🙏
Can you print out a picture of your whole quilt in ArtnStitch and share it with me. I’m getting ready to stitch out the same quilt and would like to use a few of your ideas. Thank you, you do beautiful work.
If you send me an email at flaminglotusdesign at gmail dot com I’ll try to help you.
Where did you find the adhesive ruler you put on your longarm? That is a great idea…
It’s just a regular flexible tape ruler that I stuck to the frame with clear packing tape. It’s held up just fine for me. The important part to me is that it’s the type that has the zero in the middle.
I absolutely LOVE this! Great job! And Sonny is just the sweetest thing ever.
Thank you!
Great row for the quilt! Very artistic I love it! I cant wait to see it all together!
Thank you so much!
What a fascinating idea, very concise explanation too. I love it. Eric mentioned you did this, so I figured I better check it out.
Awesome, thank you!
❤❤❤
Nicely done - love it❤
Thanks!
I really enjoy your videos and look forward to them. Listening to your carefully and calmly explained considerations and seeing your process is a delight. Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts.
Thank you, I really appreciate hearing that.
Love this! Found you through Sew Becca.
Thank you and welcome!
Just found you. Knoxville TN here I really love the birds. Have you thought about making a wall hanging? Love the colors and style. More more please. Thank you
Thanks for saying hi! I’ve made some small quilts in the past that could be wall hangings, but I rarely set out to do that on purpose. I usually prefer to make functional throw and bed quilts, but maybe if I thought in terms of wall hangings from the beginning, I could use more “fragile” techniques that wouldn’t be suitable for a functional quilt. Thanks for the idea and I’ll give it some more thought!
Love your row Pat. This is going to be an epic quilt when its all put together and whoever wins this will be super lucky. Nice to see some more applique on the quilt.
Thank you, and I appreciate the inspiration. Initially I was thinking to avoid adding more appliqué since yours is lovely, but ultimately I decided to go with what I thought would work best. In hindsight I think it’s good to have appliqué in multiple rows.
I really like the thought process and the technique that follows
Thank you, I’m trying to include more of my thinking in these videos, so I’m glad you enjoyed that.
Love you quilt ❤
Beautiful row - I can’t wait to see how this all comes together!!
Thanks - given the variety of submissions so far, I think the overall layout will be a VERY interesting process!
Was excited to see another video from you. After watching the last one, I made a couple of One Block Wonder quilts and I have a third one waiting to be done. Really enjoyed hearing your thought process for this video's project. Also appreciate the tip of how to easily attach the two angled fabrics. Very cool contribution for the traveling quilt. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks! I’m so glad that you’ve made some OBWs, were they your first ones? I’d love to see them.
Wow it looks great ❤
Thank you! 😊
my dad is so cool and talented yippee
😁
Great to see ya back, love the birds as your inspiration.
Yay, thank you!
Glad you're back! Wall art reminds me of Johnathan Livingston Seagull. Turned out real nice - will watch to see what Sew Becca ends up with!
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful! I was thinking you might place cording under a few of the birds to give them a little dimension. It's been a while since you uploaded a video--been missing your teaching. Thanks.
Clever idea, I like that! Thanks for the kind words and for watching.
I actually used one of your tips you mentioned today. You gave it just when I needed it--to put 2 fabrics both with right sides up and trace the edge. Uneven fabrics join perfectly. Thanks.
You’ve made my day! If I can help even one person with something useful, that’s wonderful. Thanks so much for telling me.
I love your thought process! The end result is beautiful!! ❤❤
Thank you 😁
You wouldn't perhaps be willing to sell your original paper copy of the pattern, would you? (Original, not copy, as I also want to respect copyrights.)
Perhaps, but I’ll need to finish making it first!
@@FlamingLotusDesign Fair point! Well, if you finish and do decide you are willing - please let me know! :)
“If” I finish 🤣 … I’ll let you know. 👍
I don’t see this as “beginning to finish” as stated!
I appreciate the feedback, thanks

I love how you work logically but improvisationally from one section to another.
Where have you gone?
Some other aspects of life have gotten in the way over the last few months, but I hope to be back soon!
It was very pleasant watching you and your longarm sew. Your music choice and camera/editing helped make it an enjoyable video.
I wish you would hand gone over the cutting out of the 6 triangles. It's so important and the whole reason I clicked on the video. For a general video it was good. I guess I needed specific steps detailed.
I appreciate the feedback, thanks for watching
I really liked 6a, in red or purple . Loved the quilt
Thank you!
Your quilts are beautiful also love your machine!
Thank you so much!
I’m not sure. I haven’t purchased that software yet
I wish we had been able to see how you arrived at all those piles of triangles. Your quilt is stunning!
Thank you - unfortunately that was years before I started a UA-cam channel so I wasn’t thinking of documenting it that way! However, I just used the standard method to align and stack the repeats. If you want more detail I can provide some.
Very beautiful! I'm working on one from panels now. Happy New Year.
Thank you and happy new year!
Besides your stunning quilts - your sewing machine is epic Love from Austria 🇦🇹
Definitely #6 with the dark border!! What a beautiful quilt Tom!!!
I love this kit. I think #1 with the white trim. I think it blend in well with the size of the bed and doesn't take away from the beauty of the quilt top!
I like it with option 2. That would really showcase your blocks but not compete. xo
I really liked the 6th one with dark and light squares. Beautiful work
I would do the pieced inner border, whichever other option you go for
I like #6. But because the center is asymmetrical, I'd do the same with the borders and only have two corner stones, diagonally across from each other. (I am partial to asymmetry.)
Interesting! I hadn’t considered asymmetric borders
My choice is #1 with the white sashings
#1 withe a pink outer border. I'd do a pink and navy checked inner border.
My preferred option is 6a as that just jumped off the screen, I am a purple fan so that is influencing my preferences and I do just personally prefer the symmetry of a square design remaining squared off. It looks fantastic so whatever you choose will be incredible.
