Your tutorials take the fear out of any project. thanks Jenny
Jenny, I think your tutorials are the best on the internet. They are easy to understand, and this quilt is so pretty. Thank you so much for all that you do with sharing your knowledge of quilting. Keep on doing your tutorials for all of us quilters. Thanks!!
Jenny I have watched this tutorial 3 times and will probably watch it again. Love the way you explaine every thing. Thanks Jenn
I just love you Jenny! How I wish I lived near you! You are my mentor and I couldn't have even thought of quilting until I found you :) God bless you and your family!
Hi, from a beginner Brazilian quilter. I love you tutorials and practice my English listening skills. I win twice!! Thank you so much!
Jenny, this block is fantastic....thank you for keeping these tutorials free they are so helpful and easy to understand...you're a great teacher. A big thank you to your kids who came up with the idea!
Every day i come here to check what I can make that's easy and fast.Well I always found something new..Thank you MSQCO..I really like all your videos..
I have watched almost every tutorial you have made ... and I have come back to this quilt several times ... I am going to make it again for a friend of mine ... Deputy Sheriff .. who is going to retire soon ... thank you Jenny ... by the way I made this quilt the first time for my Oldest Son Jimmy ... in red white and blue .. he loves it. :)
Kim, yes this IS a great pattern! Oh, Red, White & Blue! Your giving me ideas for a man cave quilt for my husband (he is very Patriotic - I am too!). But, first I'll be making this with a modern approach (I'm an artist and I'm always pushing the envelope when it comes to color/fabric). I LOVE these tutorials; MSQC ROCKS!
I have learned more from watching these tutorials than all the quilt classes I have taken over the years. Thanks so VERY much......I want to immediately go out and purchase material to make one of these quilts. Thanks again !
I hope Jenny and the Missouri Star Quilt Co. actually sees these comments. I am so thrilled to say that I made 4 of these stars today, to be used as wall-hangings. They are beautiful and were easy and Jenny's tutorials helped so much! Hoping to make a road trip to her shop some day...
Jenny you and your kids are great. You are the greatest teacher. I have learned so much
from you. Keep up the good work.
Unbelievable!! Jenny you are such a wonderful teacher not to mention I always get so inspired when I see one of your new tutorials! Thank you so so much.

Yet another GREAT tutorial demonstrating shortcuts to making dramatic quilts. For visual learners such as me, you give me 'courage' to step out of my comfort zone. Many thanks to everyone and their efforts to educate and enable everyone the ability to make quilts. Thank-you so much!
Thank you Jenny; I made two of these for my brothers as Quilts of Valor for their service in the US Army, US Navy, and Homeland Security. They were so proud of their sister !Thank you Jenny for the great tutorials and you are my hero! Sandie W
I am now addicted to this channel, & I have shared this with with all my quilting friends. I love listening while I am sewing & if I hear something that I want to check into more I can stop what I am doing & watch.
please do quick tips, easy patterns, maybe a show N tell would be great.! Thank you Jenny. Thank you for providing a nice, comfortable, friendly, easy to understand vidoe which is fun too!
I love the misic & always wait for the little "quack" at the end. so funny
I have learned to quilt mainly by watching your videos. You are awesome. Thank you. You're an excellent teacher.
One more thing.....I just want to say thank you for making these tutorials simple and easy and fast!
Fabulous. I'd like to thank you for all your tutorials. Your instructions are so clear and simple to follow. I have only just started quilting, thanks to you. I already have 2 disappearing 9 patch on the go. I just followed your instructions for the star using 6 inch squares. It's not perfect but for a first attempt I'd give it 8 out of 10. I'm so thrilled with my new hobby. Thank you again. You are an inspiration.
Im a fan from England ..This is the video that started my addiction ! Yes i have begun quilting at the age of 50 ! Bought a quilting set on my birthday and have been making these star blocks for the last week or so . Jenny makes it so easy to follow .. Im now well on my way to making a huge 7ft square quilt for my super king bed :) Using the quilt as you go method because the quilt is so big . Now im already taking notes and ideas to make a baby quilt afterwards ! Brilliant teaching Jenny
I am starting this quilt today, thanks for all your tutorials! Wondering if anyone else just likes to keep all your videos running while sewing, your voice is so soothing to me!!
Terrific tutorial Jenny! Your kids are so smart! lol! They have a smart Mama. I love all your tutorials and get so excited when I see you have a new one.
Thanks again
I made this quilt for my uncle for Christmas in 2013, because he always appreciated homemade goods. As an older man of 89, I thought it would keep him warm. He passed away 4 years later and my aunt thought I should have it. I stippled the entire thing on my home machine using the quilt as you go method. I also used Tim Holtz fabric for the stars. My uncle loved the quilt. So now I’m rewatching the video just to remember. Thanks for the memories Jenny, Sue
What a truly beautiful story, Sue. Thank you for sharing with us!
Every time I think I’ve found a great tutorial, I find a better, easier one hosted by Jenny. I don’t know why I ever watch other you tubers! Have to say Missouri Star Quilt Company is my favourite place for any quilt related tutorial!
Jenny, you are fantastic. So warm & friendly. The camera loves you. You are a natural at doing these videos & I love everyone of them. I think this one is especially wonderful and intend to make it soon. Your instructions are always so simple & easy to follow. You are amazing!!! Thank you for all these wonderful videos.
I have always loved the look of star quilt blocks, but was intimidated by dealing with sewing those triangles together. You have presented a method where no sewing of triangles is needed! How wonderful! Thank you for presenting this tutorial.
I can't imagine adislike???? This is an awesome quilt and I am going to go cut one out with some material just waiting to leave my stash!!! Thank you Jenny and your daughter for coming up with this awesome quilt!!! Can't wait to make a trip to your shop sometime!!!
This is awesome, when I saw the quilt in the background I thought I could never do it, but now this is just amazing!!! Thank you so much for making this Tutorial! You ladies are great!
Quack Quack Quack, WTG Natalie!! what a darling awesome quilt top. Thank You Jenny for showing us this pattern.
I have been looking for a video on this, but I saw it as "Carpenter's Star" I am so excited because you make things so easy! You are my Big Star of the day! Thanks for all your videos from a new quilter.
I just watched this with my mouth hanging open. I love making easy quilts like this that look difficult. The snowball edge block is sheer brilliance!
Hi Jenny: I have just started to learn how to quilt on my own just watching you and I already checked out several other videos on how to make an eight pointed star block and they were so complicated even using a special tool. I refuse to buy any more tools unless they are ones that you use. You make everything look so easy and I am grateful for all your help. Keep up the wonderful work. You have been a total blessing.
I did this in Ohio state colors. My dad is an Ohio State Alumni. I made it in Red and Gray, it turned out so well. My 83 year old dad gets it for christmas. I could not believe how easy it was to make, but not without Jenny! She is awesome and the whole reason I quilt.
I'm 60 years old, and I've been quilting the hard way for over 45 years.
Thank you Jenny and your team for making learning and quilting so much easier for this ol' gal!!!
Marmalute Chaser ...sounds familar. I made my first quilt on satin whole cloth and traced a sewer drain pattern and then filled rest of it with designs in quilting in 71. I made 55 in 92 while working full time teaching but done my way as didn't know any better. So much info these days....it's great
Hi I just read your comment to Jenny. I'm 78 and a newcomer to quilting. But you are right Jenny explains things so precisely and easy to follow.
Absolutely love this. I'm needing a new quilt for a bedspread for my queen bed.
The one I'm using I made about 15 years ago - a log cabin. Your tutorials make a
complicated looking quilt so easy. I'm going to use Layer Cakes because I can't
wait to get it finished. I hand quilt, by the way. And I love the actual quilting even
more than putting the top together. Thanks a million. God bless.
Jenny, You are the BEST teacher! I love this!! Very easy! I now love the Stars too!
I love, love, love this big star! After Brian Williams and the WSJ, this star is almost as glamorous as you, Jenny! What a star! Look out Martha Stewart. And she can't hold a candle to your sense of humour. Thank you for getting me involved in my quilting again, you and your terrific team have done so much for me!! Love you girls, honestly!
Jenny as much as I love the churn dash and the Irish chain blocks this star is my very favorite of all ! I'm loving the material and colors you used to do this wonderful quilt !! ♥️♥️♥️
Omg, I just spent half of my afternoon looking and getting frustrated on how to do Y seams, then I came across Jenny tutorial, BAM, she ROCKED it with this tutorial I erased all the other Tutorials, and saved Jenny’s on my Pinterest, Thanks Jenny what a life saver you are, Happy Dance here🎶🎵🎵🎶💃🏽
So nifty & simple. So beautiful when done. Jenny you are the best.
i made this for my nephew and it is stunning, he now has a keep sake from his Auntie. Now one for my niece! thanks jenny for making me successful!
Jenny, I am a fairly new quilter and I find your tutorials so easy to follow. If I find a pattern I like but don’t quite understand the directions I turn to you and your directions. I am 71 and just beginning to quilt.
This summer I am going to visit my Grandson in Missouri and we have plans on a side trip to your shops and hopefully meet you and any others.
Right on, Eva! Quilt on! MSQC ROCKS!
Hi Jenny, I have been waiting for this for what seems ages but boy was the wait worth it. You make evrything look so easy. Guess what I will be doing over the next few weeks. Thanks again Jenny you are apsolutely great. The best tutor ever.
I made this quilt in 2013 using Tim Holtz fabric. The fabric depicted all things NYC. I made the quilt using a quilt as you go method and free motion quilted every single block for my 89 year old uncle who said he was chilly at night. He used it for 5 years before he passed away in 2018. When he died, all of my 6 siblings had their eyes on it for inheritance. My aunt, to their shock, gave it back to me. Five years later in 2023, I still haven’t had the heart to use it. The quilt remains wrapped in acid free paper, just as my aunt returned it to me. My uncle loved that quilt so much, as he really appreciated home made gifts. He cried when he opened it, and cried when he thanked me. He couldn’t believe I went through all of that trouble to make a quilt just for him. It was no trouble at all. Thank you Jenny for a memory I’ll never forget.
Once again, you've blown my mind. So excited to try this. It's such a great way to make a large quilt if you can't afford to buy a bunch of layer cakes/charm packs.
I just love this!! I showed my mom and that day we went to to fabric store. Now we have our own big star quilt! I'm new to quilting and my mom has been doing it sense she was just a little girl. She got material for my birthday and said let's made a quilt. we made a Jacobs later and ever sense I have been hook. I have learned SO much from you and love showing my mom your tricks and short cuts. my dream one day is to bring my mom to your shop. Lord she would love that. thanks again for doing these videos.
Love this quilt. Thank you for all the wonderful help you give me as a quilter. I do lots of baby quilts for charity and you are always giving me a larger quilt pattern and usually a smaller one. Thank you very much!!!! Pat Bradley
Thank you for this great tutorial. I made one, sent it to MSQC for quilting and it looks fabulous. Now I am just finishing the binding to my Big Star quilt and it will be ready to give to my nephew for his high school graduation next June. I love it!
Hi..I like all urban tutorials. It is so easy to follow. I did many quilt blocks. Thank you very much 😊 God bless you dear
You did it again. I have couple layer cakes calling me right now. I can't wait to make it. Thanks Bonnie
I love the Big Star Quilt. It is perfect for showing off the fabrics you don't want to slice into small pieces. I also love that it comes together fast so you can see your beautiful quilt in a jiff! Thanks Jenny!
Where can I get the pattern? How many layer cakes do I need for a queen bed?
I am HOOKED on these BIG Stars!! They go together so fast and easy! I've just finished the stars for my quilt and just re-watched the video to make sure I had the snowball and sashing instructions memorized before I went on to the next step. Can't wait to finish this one and do another one, maybe smaller squares next time. THANK YOU JENNY!!!!
I made a quilt very similar to this several years ago and gave the quilt to my son and daughter -in-law thinking I could just make another for myself. Well I cannot find the pattern after looking everywhere. Tried looking on line too but to no avail. Then I discovered this great video and intend on making this quilt. It is the closest I have come to finding the pattern I have wanted for so long. Thank you Jenny. I love watching your tutorials. Your way of making everything is so much easier than anything else I have found on other tutorials. You are the best!
Jenny , this is one of my very favorite quilts !
Jenny, I tell EVERYONE about your amazing quilting tutorials ... not only do you show everything clearly, but you make it look FUN. Your enthusiasm is definitely catching! (For this technique of quartering two squares sewn together, my expert quilter friend says they're called Quarter Square Triangles, because the outer/raw edges are on the bias rather than the seam being on the bias. Of course it all still works, but quilters need to be extra careful not to stretch the bias edges). :-)
Dear Jenny, Please please come to South Africa. You are my quilt hero.
Thank you Jenny you are a fabulous teacher I have learned so much from you i made this block and my kids were blown away they could not believe it
I made this quilt ..It came out so pretty,gave to my son and his girlfriend..Thanks for the tut..Like all your ideas and you make it so easy..Thanks..
This was my first Jenny quilt that I ever pieced. I did it right after this video was made. I still have not had it quilted yet but I was hooked making
Quilts from then on.
Glad we could help start you on your quilting journey, Vicki!
Jenny, I don't understand why other people teach how to make this pattern but make it so complicated. I can't even finish watching their tutorials. I would just turn it off because it is so long and so hard to follow. So, I have stopped watching others and just focus on your techniques. Thank you for taking the time to make these tutorials. I have learned so much and are excited to make this block. Thanks!!!
Martha I agree!
Yes, Martha! A straight forward, simple approach to create beautiful quilts! I LOVE Jenny's tutorials; every quilt is doable, and we become better quilters. MSQC ROCKS❣
I think it's because Jenny uses HSTs instead of the parallelograms. If your fabric is the same in each HST then it doesn't matter and you can do the pattern the easier way.

Absolutely love the dynamic digital demonstration of what you're doing. It just makes your very easy tutorials even better.
Another great one, Jenny! Can always rely on you to come up with the very best tutorials.
Well thought out, Natalie!!
Jenny, you are one generous lady showing us so many darling Quilting tutorials.... I have only recently started to make them, but I am getting so many ideas from you... I have made three complete quilts and two table runners now.. Thank you so much... X
I want to make about 3 or 4 versions of this pattern with different fabrics and skip the corners and insert appliqué items for Christmas and other kinds. Love it. Having a tutorial makes this MUCH easier.
I love all your tutorials, Jenny, you are a very good quilter. You made quilting so much fun and easy. Your quilts are gorgeous! Thank you!
I am getting ready to make this quilt. Your tutorials are so inspiring and make me want to get off my retired rear end and actually get something worthwhile done!! I need that "push" sometimes. Thank you so much for your tutorials. They are wonderful. I live in Oklahoma and I want to get to your store as soon as I can!
what a wonderful easy way of making such a large block it was amazing how quickly this would grow thank you for sharing your knowledge
Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial on how to make a star, quilt searched for video to make a Quilt of Valor for my husband who served in Veitnam and recieved a bronze star again thank you for making this video.
Hi Jenny I made two of the diamond quilts (all with small squares) and it was a real challenge. I am in the middle of making this Big Star Quilt and so far I just love it. Love your tutorials and will continue to do quilts with your wonderful help. I am in Ontario Canada, and as it is cold and snowy outside it is a great time to watch you and listen to you as you make quilting so much fun!!! Thank you.
Jenny is amazing - I took a 10" square pink pack and then a 10" square lilac pack from MSQ store and made two lap quilts and a twin - using this pattern and they are adorable. Made it so easy, it got two of my daughters wanting to learn how.
Дуже дякую! Це найлегший спосіб з усіх,які я переглянула! Все дуже зрозуміло!
Love this tutorial! The big star quilt is stunning and the little star quilt is so pretty. You have the BEST ideas!
I have made this quilt three times.Twice in blues and white and once in blues and browns and white.I love it ,it is easy to make and makes a very impressive quilt.
This is the only tutorial for the Lemoyne star. I was hoping Jenny(mom) could do one for us ding-dongs that are lazy and love to watch and maybe do it. Thanks Jenny, Keep them coming!!!
I absolutely love this! I am so doing this with Twirl charm packs and possibly purple background fabric for my little girl. Jenny, love you and your tutorials. I started quilting after my girl (second kid) was born last year. Love how your quilts are beautiful and easy.
Wonderful!! I loved the way you taught. You made it easy, a doable project. Thank you. I am going to give it a go in a single duvet size .
I love all of your tutorials. Have completed 2 of your tutorial quilts. Each time I think you have made my favorite and then you make a new one! Thank you for being so generous. I hope to come to your shop when I retire from teaching.
I love, love, love the Christmas one! Thanks for sharing all of these wonderful ideas!
I have watched this over and over love ya jenny I made my first star thank ya very much
Love this star and how Jenny presents it. Love to follow her.
this is the 2nd time I have watched this and can;t wait for my sewing class to come around to show them how you did it thank you so much for sharing all your wonderful
short cuts
What a brilliant way to make quarter square triangles - you made it look effortless. And the way you then converted them into a LeMoyne Star, without any fancy rulers, was amazing. I am not a confident quilter but you have given me confidence to try these methods. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Thank you so much 😊 Jenny, I never tire of watching you. One day I'm going to make this star ⭐️ it's brilliant
loved the tutorial! the snowballing and sashing really takes the star pattern to another level!!
same here! I have one at Texas Tech and two at Texas A&M and three more headed to Texas A&M I have started this one I love it!
What a great looking quilt. Love the snowball/sashing added to it. Thanks so much for sharing all your ideas and skills with us.
I love this technique so much that I am working on my third Ca. King-size in three weeks. I also started doing the broken dishes blocks yesterday since the technique is the same. Jenny, you are amazing.
I have made 2 of these now; one for Christmas and one with beach-themed stars. So easy with Jenny's help and so beautiful!
Saw this tutorial and knew I had to make this! Had a layer cake that I had purhased a while back, enough for 9 star blocks. I am now adding the borders. Love all of these easy patterns. Thank you so much!
Just thought I would let u know, I made this quilt and entered it in our local fair and got 2nd place. Jenny is absolutely adorable!
Congratulations Patty! We are so happy to hear that!
Patty Preston I
Patty Preston Great job!
Patty Preston &
Congrats, Patty❣MSQC ROCKS!!!
I'm so glad I stop on your video. I'm newbie trying to find a simple & easy guide making a star block quilt. Definitely I will try your technique. Thank u for sharing.
LOVE THIS!!! yes I yelled because I'm excited!!! I have been working with the Honor Flights Program in my state to help get veterans to visit their memorial in DC. Thanks Natalie for this perfect, easy and quick creation. You just gave me more time to create!!!!
MSQC Team, thanks so much for this wonderful video. As with others, I'm so excited to make this quilt that I'm going to start cutting it as soon as I finish this feedback. Due to developing a brain disorder 10 years ago, I lost most of my quilting skills. Ten years ago I could make 12" quilt blocks with literally 50 pieces in them. I pretty much quit trying to quilt about 5 years ago, but after watching a few of your videos, I'm back in the saddle! The simplicity of this large star block design and your amazing talent for making everything simple has motivated me to try again. I'm confident that I can now make Quilts of Valor with stars for my big brother, my son. and other veterans. Thank you, thank you, thank you! From the "Quilting and Smiling Lady!!!" ☺☺☺
It is incredible how you transform all of this in a simple thing!!! Thank you!
I have never made a star of anykind but I am going to try this. I will have to cut my own layer cake squares but this looks easier than some of the other tutorials I have seen. Thx Jenny for Sharing.
Just finished this last night and I love it!!! Even made a second pinwheel quilt with the snowball leftovers so a massive quilt for me and a cuddly quilt for my 10 year old who is in love...... Heaven in turquoise!
you always keep things fresh and simple.
Jenny, this was so easy and the quilts came out just beautiful. Can't wait to try my hand at this one. Thank you!
This is fantastic! Makes me want to run home from work and make one tonight! Thank you for sharing with us.
I chose this as my favorite because it was the video that I used to encourage my guild to invite Jenny for lecture and classes. However, I have so many favorites... and lucky for me Jenny keeps making more! Thank you!
Jenny Doan thanks for the tutorial so clear and easy. I could make my quilt thanks to your help. cariños
