    I want to make a general statement, I love watching you work. You make me feel like it really is possible to make these beautiful quilts myself. You and your husband have really gone a long way in building a business that is a gift to all of us. God Bless you, I wish I lived close so I could visit your shop. I did order some fabric just last week and received it fast. It was top quality. Thank you for encouraging all of us.

    Hi Donna! About 9 months ago, I saw this video. At the time, I didn't know how to sew and didn't own a sewing machine. I was completely inspired by your explanations and decided to make this quilt for my dad using a layer cake with an "outdoorsy" theme. Thanks for explaining the process so clearly. My dad loves his quilt.

      If large quilts seem too much, you could try starting out with baby quilts, especially if you plan on quilting them on your home machine. The smaller size makes them easier to handle and it's a much smaller amount of fabric so isn't as much of an investment if it doesn't quite come out exactly right. Plus baby won't mind a few mismatched corners ;-)

    Wow! That turned out beautifully! I'm new to quilting and have only made two 3 yard quilt toppers. I did put my first topper on my batting but I oops cut one of the two backing pieces too short on accident. So now I'm thinking I might just cut equal squares that total the finished size of the quilt topper and just piece together my backing to the batting. It might give some extra texture once I get to the quilting part. I guess it's better to learn on my first one than to mess up the second topper that is going to be a gift for a good friend whose wife just had a baby. :)

    Hello Jordan team! I have been a "wanna be" quilter-type for a very long time but have been too timid to just jump in. Recently a friend told me about your videos and I have been pretty much binge watching since (my dust bunnies are beginning to organize!! lol). Your tutorials are so very easy to follow and understand - you have a true gift. I even got enough confidence to take your "Line Dance" quilt pattern and use it to make a table runner instead (figure I should start small). Because of your clear instruction - both the video and the free pattern - I was able to figure out all the cuts and everything is now on my sewing machine, ready to be stitched together. Can't wait to see the finished project. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing all that you do with so many.
