Angela, you are an absolute genius!!! I always learn so much from you. You say a lot of good things, but I think my favorite one is just to do it and enjoy the process....keep practicing. I thought I'd never get the feathers. But you said to keep on trying, and I did. All of the sudden, it just clicked! Now I love feathers! Thank you also for this quilt. It is exactly what I've been looking for to quilt for my brother and sister-in-love.
I Love your videos. You have such a great personality. I have all the material cut and ready to piece for this West Ward Quilt. Thanks I really like the solids.
I always “learn more” whenever I watch and hear what you have to say about quilting. This time I really love how you extended the blocks into the negative space and added that little square and rectangle in the middle. You always encourage me to try different things and go out of my comfort zone. It keeps quilting interesting. Thank you Angela!
OOO I have to say, Angela, You ARE AMAZING! I know you have been doing this for a long time, but having the vision to replicate the angles in the quilting is amazing! The large area with quilting is a visual feast! As an artist, I want to "take my hat off to you" again. So beautiful. Just beyond words. Love it! Yes make it look, Intentional! Can't say it enough. Tell me how you photograph the quilting so it can be seen on screen. That is technique with experience with lighting. I could watch images of this quilt for hours! I'm "bookmarking" this so I can see it over and over!
Your tutorials are always an inspiration to me. I’ve been getting braver with each quilt that I make and some are actually looking good! Thank you , Angela!
Drink more! You have the best one liners! I am channeling my inner Angela on my current project by telling myself I can quilt this without peeing my pants. LOL
Very inspirational video. Your explanations, coupled with your photo presentation, really brings the topic together. Your discussion really helps me with negative space and just doing dull meandering. Thank you so much!!
This was AMAZING! I finished the midnight quilter first and felt I had all these questions of "how did you" ..."why did you". And was about to put them in the comments when I saw the next suggested video. You answered them all. Thank you so much for deconstructing your work. I took up quilting because of you and Pat Sloan. So any mistakes I make are on both of you:). Thank you for all your hard work.
Thanks for the live chats, even though I always seem to miss the "live" part :D I always pick up something from these chats, so keep up the great work - you give me all kinds of great ideas!!!
Did you break thread to quilt the “floating” squares and parallel lines that are surrounded by swirls? Or did you have an idea where you wanted them and put them in as you were doing the swirl filler? Thanks so much. I love watching and learning and trying and watching again to pick up what I may have missed the first time-so nice to be able to go back and review-helps with my courage.
Do you offer a class on walking foot quilting. I had heard you did one on craftsy. The person who told me about the class said it was a wonderful class.
Angela, when you put this much quilting on a quilt, do you find it draws in on you? How do you keep it square as you advance it on the longarm? I find it really draws in on me and I have trouble keeping the edges out as far as they should be as I advance. Thanks.
??? Thanks for an informative & inspirational video! Love all your work. Question: I quilt on a long arm, and love to use thread that matches the fabric. Do you have any tips on lighting your work? With the matching thread, it's difficult to see where I've quilted so designs that need backtracking are difficult as is spacing.
Hey angela I don't know if it is a problem for anyone else but I am having trouble hearing you I have my volume all the way up so maybe it'ts on your end or either I am going deaf lololol
Yes I think this is very helpful. I'm watching and listening!

Super helpful and timely - getting ready to quilt a top that has a ton of negative space - thank you!
Beautiful quilting! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

Fun chat with great tips! Thanks for posting!
This would be a great panel for quilt challenge!!
Missed the live had to pick up grands from school. Love this quilt.
Angela . you are so real - i love you!

And the palette is Delicious
Great tips....always learn something from your videos
Love your work. I'm still learning my longarm machine and slow going as I am near 80. Have been quilting since the 60's. Lol
I love what you did with this!
These are great ideas. I’m still piecing another quilt but it has design elements similar to this westward one and a lot of negative space.
I listen to you!

Quilt design for the pattern fabric option of Westward Quilt? Is this an overall meander
Do you stop and start after each design (re: the little diamond in center)
How many cones of thread did you use for the background ? I am new to quilting and am nervous about how much thread to get to finish a quilt.
I don't see that link to click below for more information?
Found it
When you change thread colors on the top, do you change the bobbin color as well?
I created a quilt with different sized squares, so the whole thing is a negative space. How should I quilt it?
Did you quilt this with a ruler?
I'm not able to find the threads you used for Westward. Not on line nor your shoppe. Please tell me where they are available

Help please
