This lady reminds me of Edith Bunker on... I don't know what kind of happy juice. But she's addictive to watch and makes me smile.

Thanks beautiful Lady for what you do, a million thanks.

The first quilt my Grandmother taught me to make. I still have the one she made me from all my old clothes as I grew. It isn't in great shape as the clothes were used, but I won't part with it for anything. She gave it to me for my 18th birthday. I hand stitched each piece for mine as she talked to me about her youth and taught me much more than quilting and sewing.

My dad has a Hoosier cabinet just like the one behind Eleanor. It has swirled milk glass in the tops of the doors. It's beautiful, as is this one.

The grandmas's flower garden looks like the one I watched my grandma hand piece, pieces were no larger than a 50 cent piece - the ladies at the church quilted it, then she put on the binding. It was later raffled off for the benefit of the church.

[@sandymccormick4353]

Dear Elenor, I'm so sorry to here of your accident. I hope you are resting. Wish I could do something for you, as you do so much for so many others. Hoping for a speedy recovery. Sandra McCormick. Ps, Your staff has been very helpful.

Seeing those flour bags, I have those that were turned into pillow cases.. I wish I could find ways to use them around my house as decor..

[@ddsmiles6382]

I love the “egg money”quilt series. It’s wonderful! I’ve watched multiple times and keep learning each time I watch. I’m wondering the name of the chicken and rooster quilt shown in the entry of each video?? Chickens and roosters ( really all farm animals) are my thing lol. 😊 thank you so much. Much love ❤️ from New Mexico 🇲🇽.

[@d.casten363]

I love it! I have been wanting to make a grandmother's flower garden because the one my grandmother made for me dry rotted and I want a replacement. But after trying to make a few flowers by hand I gave up. I think maybe I can do the applique version! Thank you so much for the idea! now I need to find your book.

[@vanessaodomsellsmansions]

My grandmother "boiled" her feed sacks, sheets, and towels in a large black cast iron pot over an open fire. She used a broomstick to get the cloth out of the pot. The cloth was so steaming hot you could see the steam. I still have that pot in my flower bed.

[@janiceferrara5651]

Thanks great video dear

[@beckylosh-north8857]

Does anyone know how she prints the patterns on the fusible interfacing? I'm just learning this stuff.

[@StephRenee812]

Wow, I would def like to have those iron on templates... where do u get those???? I love how she throws the scrap.. I always have a mess, I just let it fall all kver.. then I have a big mess afterwards

[@sandymccormick4353]

Need to know where to get the marked interfacing used in this block? Love how put block together. Thank you

[@guadalupeblakey9926]

When was the first grandmother garden quilt made? I have one that I was told was more then 100 years old. The lady who own it was 87 and had passed away. Family was having a garage sale and had all this old quilts in a corner to " throw away" not sell mind you! How awful! It's beautiful, but I don't know for sure if it's that old. Rest in peace lady. I got your beautiful quilt. Was also told it belong to the lady's mother.

[@mariagoumas6135]

i love it. where can i buy that pattern????

[@StephRenee812]

Question.. I have alot if fabric, that was my grandmother's. How do you tell what year they were made or around about.. is there a way. Is that a silly question..

[@pmac22]

If you contact a local quilt guild or craft group they'd advise I'm sure, the quality is so different to nowadays I'm sure.

[@juneormerod7376]

Show me your appliqué using fusible inner facing

[@JenniferJonesQuilterdressmaker]

[@colleenross1569]

stopping at 15:59 it doesn't look like they match like a flower should!

[@sheliaheverin5314]

I am a little concerned about the thickness of the 3 pieces together. I do love the idea of not cutting ad sewing all those little pieces.

[@colleenross1569]

but you don't get the effect of each petal being sewed together ! and so thick for long am quilting!
