Donna, You are such a great teacher. So organized and clear!

[dixiewritr]

The way Matt explained the cutting was excellent!

[mgoldsmith]

Really enjoyed seeing the entire process from selection of fabrics, Matt's precision cutting, and Donna's expert sewing -- it's a joy to watch masters at their craft!

I love the way both you and your husband teach, it's very clear and thorough. You both make it seem so easy, the intimidation factor is taken away with your step-by-step methods. Thank you for all your hard work in providing these excellent tutorials, I really appreciate you!

Best tutorial for the Lone Star I have seen! Much easier than sewing strips of fabric together then cutting. Thank you!!

[susanvanvleck]

I love that you and Matt work so well together. I also like learning a new tip and trick with each video

[BrokenArrowPottery]

Your method of cutting and sewing it have everything to do with making it flat! Most people have difficulty with the 'Lone Star' -keeping it from puckering in the center. Thanks for showing how to get a great result!

The cutting tutorial is so helpful and made so much sense. Cutting the peices correctly is EVERY thing!
Great video.

Your husband does a remarkable job with color selection!

I love that Matt showed the cutting in detail.

Consider myself a "basic" quilter, rediscovering my interest. Your quilting tutorial video's have helped tremendously. This is going to be one of my next projects. Previously watched and learned your techniques on the Irish Chain. Thank you for all your help and easy instructions. Thank you to your husband Matt too....for easy way to cut out the diamonds.

[CAPOSTOLIK]

I gotta say I love the fact you explain it all quick, clear, concise and do not go on and on and on. Love your technique. Keep up the good works and thank you 🙏🏽 for sharing.

Since I live in the Lone Star State of Texas :) I am adding this Lone Star Quilt pattern on my TO DO list. I have seen these quilts but love yours with the bonus border-so unique! ! Thank you --i am enjoying all your videos with the step by step, tips, and extra pointers! Very thorough!

Wonderful tutorial... I thought I knew how to "cut" fabric but now I know better. And piecing, my goodness, how simple to keep it all straight in my mind. Thank you... Keep up the great work.

My son and I are making a wedding quilt for his brother. Ordered some grunge and batik from you and yesterday we cut out the star fabrics. Today’s I sewed all of them together so we are in great shape for the rest of the quilt, which i will machine quilt. Thanks for the great instructions both on paper and in the video!

December 2022, I had a go at making this pattern, I made a mistake when joining my A, B and C strips- git them in the wrong order, only realised after I cut them, I was able to unpick and restitch bit of a pain, so glad I persevered, I absolutely loved the finished piece, I really enjoy Donna's tutorials, the best on You Tube, thank you Donna and Matt.

[JudyHart]

This quilt is beautiful, not colors I would have picked in a million years (blue/green), but it's just right.  Love it.

[zaredentalcenter]

Thanks to both of you. So nice to see a couple been so uniquely kind. Your videos are professionally done. Love every single one. Again thanks for sharing.

[eveaward]

Wow, I have watched other tutorials with not single diamonds but strip sets. I had already cut single diamonds. I would have half crooked to purchase all the fabrics together. Thank YOU so much, both Matt & Donna, for this tutorial.

If just started doing stars with 60° diamonds which results in a six point star. I'm loving trying different colour combinations. The main thing to achieving success is definitely accuracy, from cutting to sewing to ironing. I could really do with a Matt in my sewing room to cut all the fabric whilst I sew.
