Oh! I square mine up, but just some of them. That's why mine are different sizes. I have to hand it to you Donna your piecing is perfect every time. I love how you press your fabrics and cut each one so perfectly, then to watch you piece each section together so neat and perfectly. I really could watch you all day, wishing I was so good! P.S. I must remember to square them all the same. Ha, Ha.

I think if you used pastels and greens you would have a wonderful tulip. Granddaughter loves tulips.

The Harvest quilt and the Cutting Corners quilt are both elegant. You've done it again!  Watching the new videos is so very exciting and always an opportunity to learn something new. Thanks so much. Looking forward to what's next.

Your demo is very inspirational as usual ! Your style of demonstration in every video is used to be so that the viewer gets confidence “ yes, I can do it ! “ This is sucess of your well illustrated videos. Thanx !

Another great tutorial. You and your husband are great at picking out fabrics for patterns. I love this one. Plan on making this one sometime in the future. Thanks for being such a great teacher.

As usual, a great tutorial. Beautiful fall colors.

Lovely quilt, great tutorial! I especially enjoy your design/fabric selection tips and your organization instructions. Those tips on how to do your sewing in an efficient manner really help; we all benefit from your extensive experience.

The new shop is awesome! I can’t wait to see what it looks like when y’all are totally moved in.

Re-watching this video today due to mention in recent newsletter, really love watching how these quilts go together. One comment that I have no doubt made elsewhere, though: If you are sewing diagonals and then cutting off the bit at the back, you may want to sew 2 lines instead of 1 on each piece, then cut between, to eliminate waste. So, sew the first diagonal and sew another line 1/2 inch away parallel. (If chaining sew all the first diagonals then go back and do all the secondary lines.) After pressing, cut between the 2 sewing lines. (I line them up using a long rule and use a rotary cutter.) Now, instead of tiny hard-to-work-with scrap triangles, you will have small but perfectly formed HSTs which can be used in borders, doll quilts, and baby quilts. Hope this is useful!

Love this quilt! I was finally able to get to your shop - grabbed some precut log cabin kits that I was hoping you still had some of! I can understand why you are moving to the bigger shop - hope to see the new space soon!

That turned out really pretty! Love those fabrics! Thanks!!

[eleanorwittering]

Love videos with you and your husband together. It's obvious you're such a good team, look what the two of you have built together over the years! It's a *success* story all around--and, yes, love this video.

"Hope and Sew" method (I like it!) works great when the patches are cut as accurately as Jordan Fabrics (Matt) does. Combined with Donna's organization, consistently straight stitched seams and pressing skills, it produces a proudly satisfying pieced quilt top. And yet, I also like the more carefully matched method with the pin just as well for those of us with less experience. I appreciate the explanation and shots where we see the slight difference in the results. And the accuracy of those strip sets with such a straight stitched seam and the pressing with the uniform amount of fabric on each side, nice! Donna's verbal instructions with her clever skills and her son, James' camerawork (along with producing and editing), are setting the bar higher for anyone producing quilting tutorials on YT.

A little off-topic, but I felt some joyful moments of anticipation and excitement for Jordan Fabrics when Donna showed the displayed Harvest quilts with the echoing of her voice in the not-yet-ready-for-opening new retail space. The Jordan Quilts family and staff must be feeling like kids anticipating Christmas.

[deannahansen]

Are batiks washable? Can I just pop that fabric in the washer?? I love your tutorials too, and can't wait to make this one!

[barbaraoconnor]

Donna, you are amazing. You explain how to make quilts so well, especially this one, the Harvest Quilt. Thank you.

[kathyburda]

Just beautiful as always.  Love the harvest colors.  Your detailed explanations really make your tutorials outstanding.  The camera work is excellent, too.
