#quilting #crafts #Beginner
The mother of one of my daughter’s oldest friends (since Kindergarten) just lost her 5 year battle to ovarian cancer. The mom was in the middle of making a quilt for my daughter’s friend’s daughter (her granddaughter), using the granddaughter’s receiving blankets from when she was a baby. (The granddaughter is 13 now.) Sadly, she did not finish. She got all the blocks constructed and sewn together and was in the process of quilting the backing and batting in between. When my daughter’s friend came to me and asked me if I could finish the quilt, I was both truly honored and terribly nervous! I sew clothing for my own granddaughter; I crochet afghans, but I have never quilted! Thank you so much for this in depth tutorial so I can finish a very special quilt designed by a very special angel in heaven. ❤️
I’m sure the quilt came out beautifully. You are a special person to do that for her.
I hope you finished it for her. 🙏🏼❤️😇
@@AmyThomas74 Awe, thank you for that! ❤️
@@annamarieh333 Yes, I did finish it. Now I want to learn more about quilting to make for my own family!
Looking for a simple tutorial for my sister. Great job! ❤
Wow! Beginner at sewing here at 70 years old, and this is exactly what I needed to see and hear. Thank you so much!
I am a bigginer sewer too! I find Donna a great teacher
Hi Michael, I totally agree with you here. I just took up quilting in the last year, and Donna gives the best lessons. I wish School back then was this good.
Seniors having fun!!
Ditto….
This is by far the most comprehensive and thorough quilting tutorial I’ve ever watched. I feel really confident about completing my 10 year old unfinished quilt. I’ve been afraid of it until now. Thank you so much 😊
Jesus Loves You All no Matter what he is coming back soon Jesus is king my savior my everything ❤
Oh my goodness, I just found this video on Google because I’ve had an unfinished quilt in my closet for 13 years that I’ve been scared to finish because I find binding too intimidating! I’m hoping this helps me feel more brave! 😄 Hope yours turned out great!
Thank you for inspiring us new quilters, with your help I can now move forward to finishing my first quilt🎉🤗
Donna, there are so many quilters who teach on utube. You are so good. I love your very clear and precise instructions as I'm a new enthusiastic beginner. You are the best!!!! Thank you.
You don't need quilting classes just watch Donna do her magic!🥰🥰
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
YES!!! You said it!!!
This was the best explanation of borders and yardage I've seen. Thank you for your wonderful videos. You have taught me a lot. Yes please on the video of the other steps to the longarm.
This was very helpful.I have learned a lot from you and have made some of the projects. I also love the hand cuts by Matt.They are right on.
Definitely yes on video for long arm. Thank you!
@@aliceball9282 you
I really enjoy it thank you

Donna, this was fabulous! I'm an experienced quilter but your tutorials are so smooth and methodical that I feel like tackling my UFOs right away. Thank you!
Ditto 🙋🏾♀️🙋🏾♀️🙋🏾♀️
Same...
You made the actual quilting and binding much less intimidating than many other videos.
I feel more confident that I can do this!
Still going to start small, but I can be just as proud of a table runner as anything else 🙂
Thanks so much!
Start small and grow!
I agree as well. Just finished my first quilt top and I am ready to add a border, then sandwich!
Jesus Loves You All no Matter what he is coming back soon Jesus is king my savior my everything ❤
As someone getting back into quilting after a 10 year hiatus, I am so glad I've found Donna and her tutorials, they're so helpful! She is a great teacher, her explanations and demonstrations are so clear. Thank you!
I am also back to quilting after 10-year hiatus. She is a great teacher, and makes it seem so easy. I wish I knew what the pattern was for this Robert Kaufman fabric quilt, I love it!!
Jesus Loves You All no Matter what he is coming back soon Jesus is king my savior my everything ❤
Even though I know the steps to finish a quilt, it was like a refreshing tutorial. The precise methods of it all. It was nice of you to present it. Your patience of teaching is appreciated! 😍 I have sooo many projects of yours on my to do list I don’t know which one to do next 🤩thank u Donna.
Very nice tutorial, makes you feel i nspire to start
I have watched over 10 quilting videos, and your ‘how to quilt’ from beginning to end provided sufficient detail for me to complete a T-shirt quilt. As a beginner or one-time quilter, you described other options/methods, which was not only educational, but also encouraged me to want to attempt to make more quilts. Thank you, thank you. Subscribed.
One of the most helpful patchwork videos on UA-cam. Thank you
My goodness. Thank you for this video. You are an amazing teacher.
Finally!! A Binding lesson that makes sense! Thank you Donna 👍👍👍👍👍👍😃
My jaw literally just dropped watching how you finished stitching the binding down to the top. So easy!! Just create a half inch overhang then finish with a quarter inch seam!! Wow. I've been doing the pocket method as I could never do the other complicated ways. Amazing! Thank you so much!!
Greetings, i use a thermal bating,(i live the UK) which is thicker so if this is the case with you or any other reader make your binding strip just a bit wider, to make sure you have enough to wrap round, from the front to back....
@@tadeyishu Thank you for this tip.
@@tadeyishu Thanks for this info. Genius!🙌

This was perfect timing. I always love to hear things explained in a simplistic way. Thank you.
Same here, explaining careful as you go. Not all of us learn on the same level. Thank you.
Yhh&_^^^z'
Very clear, easy to understand and see as you went step by step. I just bought a seeing machine and haven't sewn anything at all in 40 years. I've subscribed and am looking forward to learning as I go.
Your machine binding steps are just geniuos! Perfectly done! You are a great teacher! Perfect timing and pauses between steps with a GREAT cameraman! Can see great! You truly lovr what you do! What a happy life you have! Blessings!
This video was great. It made the instruction easy to follow. Great job. I will return to refresh memory .
You are a excellent teacher!
Enjoyed watching you. Thank you.
I would love to see more on the long arm. Thank you so much for taking the time to teach all the steps.
. I too would like to see more on the long arm use, like how do you do the second row of quilting and get it matched up? Thank you for your videos they are so clear and very helpful.
I've just finished a 'lockdown quilt' for my grand-daughter. It took me all year as it was quite a complex pattern. I hadn't thought about the fact that I had to back it, quilt it and bind it!! So this tutorial has been a life saver. I am so glad I've found your videos. Thank you so much as they are wonderfully clear and lovely to watch. I should get the quilt completed tomorrow. Phewph!
Don't forget to put a label on the back. We have inherited quilts from several generations. We are unsure who made them or when.
This is the best quilting video I've seen! You explain it so well and get right into it. Thank you so much!
Hi Donna
Love your tutorials but especially this one. I watched it again today while I’m working on a quilt… I love your border method. When I learned how to quilt in 2008 I was told that you measure the quilt top in three places and take an average of those measurements for your borders. Your method works perfectly and saves time 💙
Oh man ... I fell in love with the fabrics you used in that black/rose quilt ...
Not enough hours in the day, beds to hold - all the quilts I want to make .... and KEEP, lol
I would also like to see how the long arm is set up as well.
I really love the black and pink floral fabric used in the 50” square quilt. Beautiful.
Thank you. Very helpful
YES PLEASE a video on long arming would be wonderful! Thank you!
She has several videos, including this one. Look them up. ua-cam.com/video/rk8mPrK5UwE/v-deo.html
Your explanations are very clear for this novice still learning!
I'm a newish quilter and I have watched countless UA-cam videos on quilting. You do the best at explaining. You're a great instructor! Thanks for all your videos.
Donna: That method of using the pin to push out the corner when you have too much on one side?? Genius!!! I struggled for years with the corners not matching. Quilting game changer for sure! Thank you so much!
What a breath of fresh air! I quilt sporadically and sometimes feel like a beginner each time. I know I'll be referring to your tutorial in my journey. I especially like your attention to details like the finger pressing, which way the seams go naturally, etc. Thank you very much for making me feel like I can do more than I already have!
I hate to sound redundant, but this is the best tutorial! it's a little different way of adding binding, but I m soooo ready to try it.
I agree with you Georgia I can’t wait to try this She makes it look easy by breaking it all down and simplifying it
I love the HUGE ironing board. Is it purpose built? If so, how does one make it?
I love your enthusiasm! Your videos inspire all quilters to be creative with quilting boarders . Thank you for being a great teacher:) ❤ I have always struggled with measurements.
You are a clever woman! How fun to watch this video! Amazing!
Thank you so much! This is the first tutorial that I found that explains everything in a way I understand! I am new to quilting and no one explains the entire process. It all is clear now, thanks to you!
What kind of machine do you recommend for home use?
Thank you! I was so excited to see this tutorial on finishing a quilt top. You are a blessing to all new quilters. I would love to see a video on the long arm.
I just love watching your instructions and the final effect. I check every day for the latest endeavor. Your just the best. Thanks for sharing.
Agreed! Love to check my Inbox every morning for Jordan Fabrics!!!
Probably commented before but reviewing again as Donna always my go to for guidance. Thank you Jordon Fabrics
I am a beginner and have watched several videos until I discovered yours... just so perfect, have it bookmarked to refer back to. Thank you from across the pond in England.
I would be thrilled for you to do a detailed tutorial on the Gammill since I just bought a Gammill 22” without a computer right before the pandemic hit so I wasn’t able to get my training...I’ve been relying on you tubes and some are pretty good, but there’s also a lot of confusion and everyone does it slightly different. My biggest issue is loading correctly and using pantos...Ive never seen you use them since I’ve always seen you use the computer, but I know there’s many of us who need to learn how to advance to line up correctly.
You keep your instructions simple, but cover everything and do it in a way we all understand.. your a born teacher Donna and I think I can speak for everyone when I say....thank you for taking the time to make all these great videos. Please Keep them coming
Thank you so much. I really enjoyed watching. However I was surprised to see you stitch the boarders and binding with straight seams when attaching pieces. I learned to always attach pieces with a slanted or 45 degree sewing line.
I wanted to have a go at quilting, having very tiny amount of sewing knowledge, thought it would be really hard. But your tutorial really made me feel I can do this and get excited. I was very lucky to win a sewing machine recently and am learning how to use it, I've started with napkins to practice and now have the bug ~ quilting here I come
Happy for you! Have you made a quilt now?
If you use the precuts - 5" squares (charm packs) or the long, 2 inch strips, most of the cutting is done for you. And a good, sharp rotary cutter & rulers - it goes pretty fast and helps you to be accurate!
I'm pretty sure that I speak for the Entire quilting community when I say we are AlWayZ so Happy when we gain another quilter...
😶❤️😊❤️🤗
Wishing you all the best.
Would love to see the finished quilt.
Thank you so much, Donna! I am a first-time quilter and have hardly sewed before in my life! You have no idea how many times I’ve watched segments of this video. Very helpful. I’ll look for others of yours.
super duper Iove your videos such patients and love for the art of quilting, I'm new at quilting, I have always had the love for fabrics, oh oh danger danger now I want to make a lot of quilts. God Bless you Donna Jordan.
Omg i ve been waiting to this video !!!! Every video quilt on UA-cam end in the crucial point of how to end the quilt . Sooo apreciate your video..
Donna, I would like to see more details about determining the setup quilt patterns on the long arm. It would help me communicate better with my long arm provider. Thank you.
I too would love to see your set up for the quilt pattern but also I’d like to understand in more detail how you get the 3 layers aligned and ready on the long arm frame. Thank you so much for your wonderful videos. You are so very clear. You make it look so easy too. THANK YOU so much
ua-cam.com/video/rk8mPrK5UwE/v-deo.html
Finally, An awesome step by step that is clear for those of us novices. Thank you so much for this. Now I may be able to get my edges to look better. I have been adding the edges but had no clue on how to make those mitered corners. I love all your videos. Like others I would love to see videos on long arm however for those of us that do not own one like me I would prefer videos on how to free motion on our home sewing machine. Thanks Donna!
You always explain everything so well. It is kind of scary when you finish the top and then what. You helped relieve some of the fear.
This was exactly what I was looking for the presenter is extremely knowledgeable and explain it such away it is easy to understand. I’ve watched the video twice, I would recommend it for a newbie to quilting.
Great teaching and very properly done. Thanks Donna for a very helpful training.
Don't forget to add a label to your finished quilt! Whether it's a gift for someone else or a quilt for yourself, having a name & date is such a great bit of history. And if it's for a special event, add that info & the place. It can be handwritten on a fabric remnant with a archive pen or printed from the computer or embroidered - whatever works for you.
Lately I have been writing directly on the backing because I saw a quilt I MADE at a Christmas Bazar type of sale. Someone had removed my label and added hers. Needless to say I was 😠 angry. So now I write on the backing itself. Yes, it can still be covered but can't be removed.
@@midgegravelese1752 that's awful
Yes I agree
This is so important! We have inherited quilts that we are unsure who made them & when.
Thank you, Donna, for this video. It helped us finish our niece's wedding quilt. Due to Covid we could not attend, but the finished quilt surrounded the newlyweds with our love. We could not have done it without you.

And future everybody else! Thanks so much!
You are by far my favorite quilter for tutorials. Very easy to follow along and you do not leave things out. Alot of times I find myself talking (cussing) at the video because I have so many unanswered questions. Sometimes it causes quite the commotion because the entire family comes running to see what is wrong. Oops...
Thank you for allowing me to get through this binding without a bunch of yahoo's storming my sewing room. :)
Ms. Donna im going to learn how to quilt watching you. Im 65 and always wanted to learn how to quilt like the women of old no one in my family that i know of has ever done this so im going to learn from you and a few others but you are the one I actually learn from. Thank you so much. Darlene
Thank you so much, Jordan family, for creating this video. I am in the planning stage of my first full sized quilt, so this helps me tremendously!
Donna, this tutorial was amazing and will definitely help me finish my projects with confidence and satisfaction. I love your tutorials and have referred to them over and over again.
Thank you so very much!
Thanks for such an interesting and helpful tutorial! Great to see the calculations made easy too. Wonderful, thanks for taking the time to share your quiltmaking with us
This is the best video on binding and finishing I've watched, thank you, very good
Thank you for this video. I am 77 years old and is just starting to make quilts and other things. I am so glad to see all your videos. They are great. Thank you.
And yes, I would love to see a detailed video on how the long arm works.
Thank you, this tutorial was so informative. Yes please show the setting up or loading of the longarm. Your camera person knows how to get in there and show us the details and with such good lighting.
I’ll be watching, who said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks😍
As I did my binding I reviewed your tutorial several times until I finished my binding. What a tea Cher you are.
Thank you so much Donna I am new to quilting and I really love watching, learning from you. Keep up the good work!
I would love to see the whole process of doing the long arm from start to finish! That would be an awesome experience!
Thank you again for your tutorial!! I watch all of them. I would be interested in seeing how thoset up the longarm too. I'm thinking asst some point I'd like to buy one so it would help me that way too!! Thanks Donna.
One more thing, thanks to Matt for cutting pre-cuts! I really don't like using the pinked ones, and he has a great eye for choosing coordinating fabrics!!
I would love to know more about long arm quilting. I really love your quilting tutorials.. my husband tells people he goes to bed ever night with me and Donna Jordan. Haha. He wakes up and knows what a seam allowance and how to bind. X
You are the best😍
I am new in this world of quillting, and i wach u every sigle day to learn how to quillt like u😁
I am from ROMANIA, and i love ur work😘
Donna Jordan is the best at teaching. ❤
So happy to have you back! I really liked the tutorial and I would love to see more about the long arm.

The borders idea is brilliant. It’s really going to make my quilt pop
As someone working on her first quilt, this video was so helpful.
This is such a good tutorial to be able to go back to refresh me. When it’s been awhile since I’ve gone through the process, I’m glad to be able to refer back to this. Thank you, Donna.
Thank you Donna .wonderful quilting and binding lesson.
I would also love to see the setting up of a long arm. I have a friend with a long arm but not computerized. You have to free motion quilt using her machine with the handles to move the machine across the quilt. It does about three sweeps then the bobbin has to be replaced. .
Thank you for your videos. They are very helpful and give me loads of hints, especially colour choices that I perhaps would not have thought of before. Thank you too for the free patterns They are full of great ideas.
Wonderful video. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us 😘😘
I deeply appreciate all of the effort put into this for us! Wow! I just started crazy quilt squares and I'm so inspired!
Your videos are OUTSTANDING!
I am really enjoying your videos. I am watching them on my TV.
I would love to see how to set up and use the long arm I think it is so cool
When I try to stitch in the ditch, I took your advice and stitched around the edges first. Every time I have done this I find that my backing bubbles up and I get HUGE wrinkles in the backing! Are there any recommendations??
I’m a long time quilter with a stack of pieced tops that might get finished now! Thank you so much for this great tutorial!!
Ugh so thankful you are showing this!!!
Wow, what a wonderful shop, wonderful teacher, wonderful video/tutorial!!!!!!!
Stay blessed Donna, you are doing a great job and sharing it too, thanks
From Mumbai/🇮🇳india
Love your tutorials! I'd like to see how to set up and use the long arm.
I am very pleased with the steps and helpful measurements and how you add the width and length of the fabric you need to finish the quilt live in eastern Oregon and I enjoy watching all your videos Thank you so much for refreshing my memories of the basic quilting techniques
Great video of instructions, very clear and you get straight to the point there's no dilly dally. Thank you so much .
I would love to see how quilting on a long arm with computer.
You're a fantastic teacher!
Every time I watch one of your videos, I learn. I can't thank you enough for that as well as giving me the courage to quilt. Pretty cool indeed. Thank you for sharing your experience and creativity. And of course, your working space. I call it the happy place truth be told haha Cheers from BC Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
This is where I get "stuck" - so I'm looking forward to becoming "unstuck" - Hurray!
Donna,do you always start at the top and bottom putting on your borders. My husband and I love your tutorials, have made a few quilts from them. Thanks so much.
Really enjoy watching your tutorials.
As an absolute beginner I've put off cutting my nice expensive fabric. This is just what I need cos I hadn't a clue how to even get started . Now I'm on it and in my head only it will be as neat as these quilts .wish me luck I can see how to do it now and I'm going in with scissors ad cutting roller.i have more confidence now and will keep referring back to your tutorials.thank you. Brilliant
I love that cutting noise😂i feel like a weirdo now, please don't judge me😂
I love that sound because it's a crunchy interesting sound. LOL.
@@chevydude658 oh thank goodness I'm not the only one😂welcome to crunch sound town my friend 😂
@@RamittaLestat Add me to your “love the rotary cutting sound” group! 😀
I do too lol
Lol me too
I am going to use your binding technique forever. Thank you for your videos!
Thank you! So helpful, especially your upbeat attitude that there are many different ways to do the quilting.
I really love this video. It takes away a lot of the mystique around making quilts. Thank you so much!
Excellent teaching, clear and precise. Thank you!
Donna thank you helping me make my first quilt .your videos are fabulous thank you
