Such a cute quilt. How many people were watching this and saying "No, Jenny. That green and white square needs to be turned!"? Was glad she spotted it before getting too far.

There are 1000 women yelling at their phone right now! "That block is turned the wrong way!" 😁 Your graciousness when you make a mistake helps me to go easy on myself. ❤️

What I enjoy the most about watching Jenny.. she is true to herself. How many times we all make the same mistake in our craft rooms with no one watching us. Love this quilt which I will put on my to do quilt list. Thank You so much Jenny and family for all you gave us over the past and years to come. The quilting world is a better place because of you.

Life is too short to be anti-finger licking! Sometimes it is necessary to get things done! Lol! Love you and your tutorials so much, Jenny!

I’m watching this and crying. My husband Terry’s Grandma made him a quilt for our wedding & it has these leaves on it. It’s a tulip quilt This reminds me of the day I first put that quilt on our bed after we married . I don’t know how many times I’ve smiled running my had over that quilt in memory of GMA.
Thanks for another awesome memory Jenny, this quilt is gorgeous!!! I love Gingham so much!!!
BTW Terry passed in 2002. He was 48 yrs old. Memories are what quilts are made from!!!’❤❤😊

I like how Jenny will show different ways to do a block.

My grandma used to say while making quilts: "it's not how well you cut & sew, it's HOW WELL you Hide Your Mistakes"... I loved my Grandma's thinking pattern., Chicken Scratch.. I think I still have a pattern book for that.. I made aprons for friends for gifts.

EXCELLENT!!!! I LOVE the Missouri Star Quilt Company staff, by far, my most favorite tutorials are when it's just YOU, your machine and It doesn't get any better than that 🙂

Jenny, it gives me somuch JOY, when you say, "Our goal is not to have to swear!" I love it.
You graciously find and fix your "slow down." It builds confidence and comradery! We love YOU. This is so fun, I want to do one. Thanks for sharing your creativity with us. God be with you till we meet again 💝🤟🙏🍀🦓Liz from Northern California 😊

The quilt you made here has that antique look because of the gingham fabric! It is so nice that someone finally made REAL COTTON gingham, instead of us having to buy the poly cotton kind!

[kathyday]

"Our goal is to not have to swear" ☺️☺️ Words to live by!! Love you so much Jenny!!♥️

[ZobeesMom]

I love that Jenny is a "get it done" kinda girl! With that many kids to raise she had no time to be too fussy! Jenny makes my favorite videos!! Love your shows, and can't wait to get to your shops, ...one day, sigh....

[robertaarrowsmith]

Another great block. I found myself saying to Jenny, "no, look that one is turned around." But she caught it. Love it when Jenny makes the same mistakes I do. And how special for her to keep it in the video and not edit it out. Just like Jenny says, "We make it real." Thanks for all you do for us. 🥰❤️🧵🪡

Thank you, Jenny, for letting us see that even with all the hours of sewing- errors happen. We are truly one big family.

My grandma, born in 1907, had an Aunt Hattie! So that puts Aunt Hattie born way before that! I can’t wait to make this quilt in honor of those 2 ladies. Thanks for showing us your antiques. Hard to think our quilts will someday be antiques😵‍💫. The first thing I ever sewed was a skirt and vest for myself out of baby blue gingham….wore it for my 6th grade class picture- boy was that skirt short, and thin🙃. Merry Christmas!

Sometimes when I just need to cheer up, I watch Jennie piece a quilt! It always works.

[debrarevay]

I really love this quilt. I haven't done Chicken Scratch in over 40 years. Thank you for bringing some fun memories back to me.

[SandyDenney-soms]

What an excellent way to use the gingham fabrics. I'm excited to see this jelly roll of gingham fabrics.

[cynthiagyenge]

I’m grateful to see someone else makes these kind of mistakes. I do things like this all the time.

[jeanniepatrick]

I'm going to try this with Christmas fabric and just do the stars. So cute, thanks Jenny!
