Love you ladies and Jenny. She has a few tutorials for kids and two of my grand daughters want to watch them every time we get together. Both of them are loving sewing with Grandma!
This pod cast has been one of the very best ever. Jenny is so uplifting and positive and her enthusiasm is contagious ! Thank you so much for having her...
Great interview Sherri. What Jenny and her family have brought to the quilting world is truly amazing. I had the good fortune of visiting Hamilton in 2018 and it was such a wonderful trip.
I haven’t been quilting long, maybe 4 years, and I actually learned watching Jenny’s quilt tutorials. Even tho we are close to the same age, I look at her as my grandma, because my grandma taught me everything, but she passed way too soon, so I never learned to quilt from my own grandma, so Jenny completed my journey. Thank you so much for having her today.
Fantastic interview, love listening to both of you. UA-cam is the answer for me, there are my favourites that I watch and have learnt a lot with lots left to learn. Thanks for making my quilting journey possible. 👍❤️😊
I read Jenny's book and very much enjoyed that!! Life hasn't always been easy for them and she is truly an inspiration!! Excited that there's another podcast this month. I am a fan!!! I am doing the BOM and I look forward to the finish!! Thanks for all you do!
Great interview!! I live about 1 hour 45 minutes away from Hamilton, so have been fortunate to go to MSQ several times. I am never disappointed! I am one of those late bloomers with quilting and have found the tutorials so very helpful. Jenny does a great job, but I have to compliment you and Chelsea, as well. The time you take to do thee videos is appreciated!! I have attempted so many different blocks because of the patient teaching on these videos. Thanks for all you do. P.S. Hope Billy does make a quilt!!🙂
I could say SO many wonderful things about this one! Don't know about some of you, but I was tearing up toward the end about how much we put into our quilts & how much they mean to someone even if we don't realize to what extent 🥰 We were lucky enough several years ago to have Jenny as our guest speaker for our guild in Abilene, Tx as well as her teaching a class & do a trunk show. I have her book but haven't read it yet. We plan on going to our cabin Friday & will take it with me. I've heard there will be tears shed while reading it! This was such a great interview!!
Thanks for doing this interview. I started quilting at 78 near the beginning of the Covid 19 lockdown in 2020. It saved my sanity, I swear!! And thanks to you and your family and to Jenny and her family for teaching me so much and inspiring me to continue.
Jenny is such a lovely inspirational lady, I saw her speak at Festival of Quilts and will alway remember that day with great fondness. She had some wonderful stories to tell and so many great ideas.
I sew enjoyed this pod case. I have been blessed to be able to go to Missouri from Pennsylvania in 2018 by bus. It took us 2 days to get there and 2 days to shop and of course 2 days back. So worth it. Then she came to Lancaster PA and yes I went to see her there. You really do need to go to Hamilton. She came and got on bus and greeted us and the second day we went to one of her shows. Wow we laughed and cried. Like you said you need to get there. I love your pod casts and that you too are family oriented. We are blessed to have you care enough to share your family with use. Thank you!
What a wonderful interview! Our retreat group is planning a trip to Missouri Star, Fall of 23. If you open a store we willl plan one for your store too! Have a great day!
Sew love the harvest road fabric line 💕. That was such a wonderful surprising and amazing fabric line! Great podcast. Jenny is such a sweetie and so inspirational 💕. Great video as usual ladies !
This interview came up in my feed and I listened to it again. 😀 such good advice and conversation. Love it! Sherri, I think you are scheduled to come to Lincoln NE quilt guild this year. You are only about 3 hrs away from MSQC. Maybe you could take extra time to stop and visit. The Kansas City airport is only an hour away from Hamilton to head back home! PS I hope you enjoy the International Quilt Museum in Lincoln. It is a treasure.
I started quilting a couple years ago because I had (and still have) lots of remnants from making incubator covers for Israel. The first one to join me is in her mid eighties! Then another, then another..the rest of us are in our seventies. We make baby quilts for a pro-life organization in Israel. Such a joy. I sent this link for your interview to the three of them-it is a must-listen. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families!
What a great interview with Jenny. She is so inspiring. I watch a couple of her you tube videos every day. I really love the triple play they are all so clever . Love to have more triple plays.
I saw that you were interviewing Jenny Doan, and I had to listen right then! I’ve had the privilege of going to Missouri Star for a quilting retreat, and got to meet her, Ron, Misty, and Jake. It was a definite highlight of my quilting life! I could listen to her all day!
Made one trip to MSQC several years ago and fell in love with it. (We live in Fulton, MO) Can't wait to go back but for now, I go online. This was an absolutely awesome interview (but I may be a bit biased!). Jenny is a gracious and inspiring lady. Thanks for the interview.
I read the book last week & was wishing for someone to have BOOK club with me on this book! Today was a dream come true with you & Jenny! Plus I love all the take aways your son got from reading it too.
OMG please make a special "Quilters Kid's" I would love to see yours, Jenny's and others like Kimberly Jolly follow a tutorial you all filmed!!!! (well kids other than the ones that already quilt!!!)
Jenny taught me how to quilt. My Mom could make anything from a cup towel to a wedding dress , upholstery and quilts, but I never got interested in any of her passion, she died in 2008. . 5 years ago I saw one of Jenny’s videos and I said to myself “ I can do that “ so I bought all the supplies and started. 5 Years later I consider myself an intermediate sewer and quilter . Now I know Moms passion for sewing feels. Thanks Jenny 💕
Love these interviews, so interesting. I am trying to identify the quilt just over Chelsea’s side. I’ve gone through your blog but can’t find it, can you help?
always love hearing Jenny's stories! Thanks for interviewing her. (it makes me crazy that your eyes are never looking at us - your viewers : ) You are looking sideways at your son, the ceiling, staring into thin air, etc. Yikes - we think you are talking with us, but hard to tell) Maybe put a smiley face in front of you so you know where to look so we will feel like we are in the conversation. thanks.
Best interview ever!!!! Xoxo I listened to her book on audible. Which jenny read herself ❣️ this interview was a great addition to her book. And PS: Billy, I’m looking forward to following along with you sewing adventures 😊
Excellent and inspiring, thank you. I really would enjoy watching Billy do a pillow case, i feel it would inspire more of a younger generation. I have a question for both Sheri and Chelsea, what is there favourite pre-cut? In Chelsea’s recent pattern of the pumpkins would layer cake work? Thank you again for the inspirational video today…
Jenny Doan is so inspiring. Her outlook at life and all things is contagious and I love that you had her in this video. I hope to get her book soon. You’re the best and are a gifted interviewer. Thanks so much. Happy Thanksgiving to you, Chelsi and y’all’s families. God bless.
I really enjoyed this interview, of course I always enjoy your videos! Jenny is so famous now, but she's so approachable as well. I'll have a smile on my face for the rest of the day.
What a great interview. Thank you Sherri and Billy (missed you CheIsea)! I hope this is inspiration for Billy to start a project. I am sure your mom or sister will help you out!
Love, Love, Love this podcast today!!! Jenny Doan and her family's story is such an inspiration !! I tear up every time I watch or hear her story. So uplifting and filled with positivity!! Thank you !!!
I loved this podcast. So inspiring. I am going to get Jenny’s book and read it. Thanks! I am looking forward to seeing Billy quilt a project. Thank you all for putting on these videos. It definitely has carried me through the pandemic and helped me learn so much. We appreciate you all!
Wonderful interview! I want to thank every quilter who is on UA-cam. I have favorites, but am open to and have learned from so many of you! From a relatively new quilter, a heart felt Thank You!!
So excited for this podcast. I visited MS Star for the first time this summer on our way back from a trip out west and I loved it. Such a fun place to visit and I love Jenny’s story!
I just love Jenny I ordered the book because just listening to Jenny I feel so inspired. Thanks for sharing this I have been so lifted up from her conversation.
This was one of my favorite episodes. Jenny is such an inspiration and I want to get her book. I also see a visit to Hamilton in my future! Thanks for this interview!
So glad to hear more about Jenny! She was my inspiration to start quilting. I stopped sewing when my 3 little daughters began to swing from my sewing machine table( my mother’s Singer “pop up “ machine down in a nice wood cabinet with a fold out table) In the living room where I would be making matching dresses for them. Happily, and fortunately for me, My husband found Jenny on his phone. I also saw her little town and heard the story of how she and her family have changed that sort of the works and the lives of so many people. When I am “working out “ piecing problems in my Sewing room, I hear all her reminders in my head. The one I’ll share is about the importance of squaring up and watching her take off the little slivers at the edges. At first and for awhile I didn’t “get it” and let that part of the tutorial go unheeded. After all, we trim away with scissors on garment making, but we don’t ever “square up !” Now I know when and why that is important. 🤗
I am 47 and I barely started in 2019. I was super excited to learn that I can do this. I was engulfed in the Doan world and I discovered people like Sherri and Chelsea, Kimberly Jolly, Pat Sloan, Lisa Bonjean, Chris, Tula, and all the great companies. My first quilt was Robert Kaufman fabrics and Benartex. I am still learning all the things and I watch all of you every day, literally, so I can learn about the tools, and how to perfect my skills, and about patterns. I fell in love with precuts and love that Kimberly added Jollybars to the precut family tree. I want to take a trip to Quilt Town not only to see the Doans but to be amongst all those quilters. I love being part of this community.
I have been quilting for more than 30 years now and I learn new techniques, history and skills every day. The comment about the quilts we make comfort strangers or family long after we "go" made me cry, it was such a wonderful thought. Just another reason to do what I do. I will remember every time I enter my studio.
I adore that i came across this podcast to listen to while i finished up binding a quilt for my son. Thank you for bringing this to us abd thank you Jenny,you were such an inspiration to my journey back into quilting (via the sewing machine!), today my life is nothing like it used to be but it is exactly what its supposed to be and my days at 60 yrs old have been filled with machine piecing and quilting for almost 25 yrs and has been especially qratifiying since watching jennys quilting tutorials on machine quilting. thank you both🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Oh my goodness, I've been following Jenny Doan for years and I didn't know how she got into quilting. I am enjoying this interview so much I had to pause it and say Thank You for doing and sharing this. I am old enough to know that Ben Franklin's was a five and dime store back in the day while many newer quilters probably don't.
Great interview! I love Jenny! I'm in my late 50's and just started quilting about 4 yrs ago. I wish I had started earlier. I actually learned and continue to learn from her. I'm a visual learner and angley challenged as she says! So I'm thankful for her UA-cam videos. And your's as well Sherri! Thanks 😊
I have been quilting since my youngest went to college in 2011. It has been such a great hobby and my happy place. I have made them for wedding gifts, baby gifts, Christmas gifts, etc. I have only made two for myself so far. The part about giving them to others touches me so much! ❤️❤️
Great interview. I loved her before and love her more the comment from her son, Alan about 20 hours into a quilt. That is a quilter..Thank you, Sherri. Enjoy your podcast and sew alongs very much.
So enjoyed this podcast with Jenny. She and her family are such an inspiration. I've made many quilts using her tutorials and probably would never have gotten back into quilting without those tutes! Thank you for a wonderful podcast!
Jenny’s talk on giving away quilts encapsulates so much of quilting for me. I quilt because I like the process and love creating. I don’t need or want the vast majority of the quilts I make - I just like to make them. I give away SO many quilts. Just yesterday I donated 5 quilts to our school district to give to some of the families who are effectively homeless. My husband asked “are you sure? Isn’t there anyone you know and love who would enjoy these quilts?” I said “I’m sure. I know and love a lot of people, and I love a lot of people without knowing them. I make a lot of quilts. There will be more.”
Thanks for having Jenny Doan on your show! I read her amazing book! I know she is loved by so many people! I watch all her tutorials and enjoy them very much! Merry Christmas !
Well said Jenny! You are such an inspiration to all of us!! I always see the mistakes in my quilts but my friends absolutely love them.. when are you coming back to Sacramento? We miss you here in California.. Thank you so much for having Jenny on your show!!!
Oh I love Jenny’s story! Thank you so much for having her Sherri . What an amazing story! Quilters truly have huge hearts and are so giving. Thank you for sharing. I just purchased the book. ❤️
What a great interview! I've had the pleasure of attending a retreat with Jennie, herself. It was so much fun & she is so inspirational. I've been to three retreats over the years, & met lots of wonderful quilters. I love your podcasts & videos. Thank you for all you do for us quilters! Happy Thanksgiving!!
Thank you for the interview with Jenny Doan. I have heard some of her story but not as much as I learned from your podcast. How interesting and positive to hear more of her journey! I understand more now of why she always has shortcuts for patterns. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to questions next week!
I made the trip to Hamilton and just loved the experience. I didn’t get to meet Jenny but loved the whole experience she created in that sweet little town. Hope to make another trip there. I’m in Minnesota so I don’t normally get to Missouri but it was just down interstate 35.
I love what Jenny said about giving quilts and being a part of a quilt community. I also love teaching sewing to my friends bc it grows the quilting family. I always run across people who say they have a sewing machine but don't know how to use it. That's an open door to share and teach.
I started to learn to quilt when my husband passed away and I was 65. That is exactly how I am learning utube! I could never learn in a class! Love this thank you!!
So inspiring! Thank you. All non quilters should watch this and then they would be more appreciative of all the blood, sweat and tears and heart put into every quilt.
by Far the best interview!!!! Love Love Love Jenny!!! thanks Sherri!!!xxxxxxxxxxxx you 2 are such WONDERFULL LADIES!!
Love you ladies and Jenny. She has a few tutorials for kids and two of my grand daughters want to watch them every time we get together. Both of them are loving sewing with Grandma!
Jenny is a Great inspiration Thank you so much.
I started quilting at 74 yrs and should have started sooner.
This pod cast has been one of the very best ever. Jenny is so uplifting and positive and her enthusiasm is contagious ! Thank you so much for having her...
Great interview Sherri. What Jenny and her family have brought to the quilting world is truly amazing.
I had the good fortune of visiting Hamilton in 2018 and it was such a wonderful trip.
Such a special lady. The world needs more Jenny’s! Thank you for this podcast. I loved every minute. Y’all are the best! 💕🧵😍

This was one of my favorite episodes. Jenny is such an inspiration and I want to get her book. I also see a visit to Hamilton in my future! Thanks for this interview!
Great interview. Thank you. I love your Chanel. ❤️
So glad to hear more about Jenny! She was my inspiration to start quilting. I stopped sewing when my 3 little daughters began to swing from my sewing machine table( my mother’s Singer “pop up “ machine down in a nice wood cabinet with a fold out table)
In the living room where I would be making matching dresses for them. Happily, and fortunately for me, My husband found Jenny on his phone.
I also saw her little town and heard the story of how she and her family have changed that sort of the works and the lives of so many people.
When I am “working out “ piecing problems in my
Sewing room, I hear all her reminders in my head.
The one I’ll share is about the importance of squaring up and watching her take off the little slivers at the edges. At first and for awhile I didn’t “get it” and let that part of the tutorial go unheeded. After all, we trim away with scissors on garment making, but we don’t ever “square up !”
Now I know when and why that is important. 🤗
Typo correction: she and her family changed that part of the world.
Great podcast. Looking forward to the book and learning more.
I loved this interview! Thank you so much!
I Loved Jenny's book, I read it in one day, I could not put it down.
That Moda guy was just being a good rep!
Soooooo good! Thanks so much.
What a great interview. I enjoy see Jenny so much.
I am 47 and I barely started in 2019. I was super excited to learn that I can do this. I was engulfed in the Doan world and I discovered people like Sherri and Chelsea, Kimberly Jolly, Pat Sloan, Lisa Bonjean, Chris, Tula, and all the great companies.

A trip to Quilt Town is on my bucket list too!!
Wonderful interview with Jenny!!! I want to get her book on audio (if available) so I listen while I quilt!! She has such an inspiring story!!
It is available on audio and I believe Jenny is reading it herself!
What a blessing Jenny is, such wisdom and love!
Thank you for an awesome video!
Loved this interview, Jenny is Awesome!
Love the quilt in the background
Wonderful Podcast 👍😍
Best podcast ever!!!! Loved hearing Jennies stories!!!!
What a beautiful and inspirational interview. Thank you! I also love the gray quilt on your back wall❤️

Oh I love Jenny’s story! Thank you so much for having her Sherri . What an amazing story! Quilters truly have huge hearts and are so giving. Thank you for sharing. I just purchased the book. ❤️
FABULOUS interview! Thank you all so much. Very inspirational indeed
What a great interview! I've had the pleasure of attending a retreat with Jennie, herself. It was so much fun & she is so inspirational. I've been to three retreats over the years, & met lots of wonderful quilters.
I love your podcasts & videos. Thank you for all you do for us quilters!
Happy Thanksgiving!!
Thank you for the interview with Jenny Doan. I have heard some of her story but not as much as I learned from your podcast. How interesting and positive to hear more of her journey! I understand more now of why she always has shortcuts for patterns. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to questions next week!
I made the trip to Hamilton and just loved the experience. I didn’t get to meet Jenny but loved the whole experience she created in that sweet little town. Hope to make another trip there. I’m in Minnesota so I don’t normally get to Missouri but it was just down interstate 35.
I just received my Labor of love book, I noticed right away the quilts on the wall and on the table. I Love it!!!
I love what Jenny said about giving quilts and being a part of a quilt community. I also love teaching sewing to my friends bc it grows the quilting family. I always run across people who say they have a sewing machine but don't know how to use it. That's an open door to share and teach.
I started to learn to quilt when my husband passed away and I was 65. That is exactly how I am learning utube! I could never learn in a class! Love this thank you!!
So inspiring! Thank you. All non quilters should watch this and then they would be more appreciative of all the blood, sweat and tears and heart put into every quilt.
I've been truly enjoying these guest podcasts! The heartfelt sharing is so uplifting! God bless you all!
Fantastic episode!
It would be fantastic to also have the name of each of the quilt patterns shown on the displayed quilts through out this conversation.
