I had an illness 7 years ago, and prior to that I was an avid quilter. I have been watching your tutorials for a few months, to relearn the things I forgot.

This will be my first quilt in a long time as a new quilter, starting over again, if that makes sense? Thank you!❤

[BonnieWaldrup]

Oh my gosh! Such a great pattern for layer cakes. I see it as a perfect pattern to quickly use up stash fabrics too! But can I resist the fabric you used? Probably not! What's with the griping this morning? It's a FREE tutorial!! Gift horse, you know. It was perfect and I loved it! The production was professional and the little glitches didn't prevent anyone watching it from learning. You go Jenny girl!! Thank you for the free tutorial!

There is a lot of reflection on the rulers when you are squaring things. Makes it hard to see what you are doing.

[denisejolly]

Another great video BUT the glare from the overhead light on the ruler is very disconcerting. Looking at the quilt behind you on an angle is not good. When you were showing borders the camera did not pick it up until you showed the back. Wishing you would go back to the original view.

I love simple, quick quilts. I wonder how it would look in batiks?

[victoriahough]

I loved doing this quilt… and used a pack of 10” squares I had purchased awhile ago.

[jeanettewithrow]

Best idea for using up layer cake. Thanks MSQ

[dorenenagy]

I don't know what you are doing different but the volume is way to low. We can't adjust it anymore on your tutorials. I love this pattern. I will try it out soon.

[tearose]

And this helps my dilemma…finding a quilt pattern……ty, im so making this. I collect sea glass too….so beautiful ❤💜🫶🏽

[robertaarrowsmith]

Fabulous. Great pattern. The fabric- I love everything by Edyta Sitar. Thank you, Jenny, for once again giving us a wonderful quilt that is quick and easy. ❤🥰🧵🪡

[PatriciaMadden-jl]

I like seeing your quilts straight on rather than on an angle.

[lisabotkin]

😊Thank you Miss Jenny for another great tutorial! 🎉

i adore jenny and her daughters! i am always learning something new.

[lucyb]

Interesting new angle. GLARE from overhead light on the rulers was very distracting and made it difficult to see what Jenny was doing when lining up her rulers. ❤❤❤

[debthill]

You need to work on the volume…my volume is turned up as high as it will go

[loisborlase]

Great tutorial, as always! And a super pattern to file away for a layer cake you can’t resist buying because it’s so pretty. The pieces are big enough you can enjoy the fabric!

[pb]

Reflection from overhead light is extremely annoying and obscures what you are doing. Please put the studio back as it was! Great quilt that I can use that layer cake I’ve had for ages and not known what to make with it.

[janetsmith]

Brilliant! I have several layer cakes that I need to use. This looks like it will come together quickly. Thank you for another awesome pattern. ❤❤❤

[victoriabrown]

Hi Jenny & team, the volume is too low. Difficult to hear you.

[kathrynwright]

Sorry Jenny but the new look of the set creates a problem with the lighting. Ceiling lights reflect on your rulers as you are showing centring of the blocks. The sound on this video is also very low.
I gave been watching your tutorials for years. ❤
