    I love that you don't wait for "everyone to jump on" and then start saying Hi to everyone who has. You get straight to the subject & are very informative. You make everything seem easy :) Thanks so much xxx

      Yes Deborah. I agree. You would not believe how many people I stop watching because they have to stop 20 times in the middle of sentences to say hi, and thank you, and this and that. Angela knows how to keep my attention for sure.

      @@peachycheeks4394 yes, I don’t even bother attempting to watch Tim Holts any more for that reason. It just wastes my internet & money to wait for so long. 😉😊

    Angela I started watching you on blueprint. I did a lot of the quilts you showed but always straight line quilting and in the ditch with a walking foot. Then I did your quilting with rulers challenge. I would move an inch without the ruler then a few inches and one day near the end no ruler. Didn’t even realize it and then I did! I called my husband and my son to my room yelling omg I’m doing it! THANK YOU. You are right practice.

    Love watching Angela’s machine quilting videos, and I loved watching the chat on feathers. I feel that Taking the time to draw the feathers out with a maker and white board while talking about her tips helped so much in my feather making.

    Hi Angela. I just wanted to tell you that I LOVE your "wild" feathers! I used them on my first "real" quilt (I don't count my previous attempt which was actually just a panel) ...but the "real" quilt that I made for my husband...even as a novice quilter, I put your wild feathers (as seen in your "shape by shape" book that I got for Christmas that year...I quilted them in the border and it turned out beautifully! He loves it and it is STILL my favorite quilt! Thank you for sharing your talent! You are an inspiration!
