EPISODE 47 - Fast and Easy Quilted Table Runner

[@FireFightersMoM]

I have no idea why people feel they have the right to put others down. You put yourself out here to help others with a hobby you love. Thank you so much. I loved your video

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

I appreciate that! Thank you very much:)

[@tinakirksey9675]

Really nice video and great instructions. I have a question. If you have a rectangular table, that seats 4, but could seat 6, my question is do you want to hang your table runner off the sides and put your place mats onto the top of your runner? Or make the table runner shorter so the placemats doesn’t cover up your runner?

[@YvonneFox-lf7cr]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR KNOWLEDGE, YOUR TIME AND EFFORT SHOWING US YOUR TALENT. WE DO APPRECIATE YOU. YOU ARE VERY GOOD HELPING US TO LEARN. PLEASE KEEP UP GOOD WORK. THANK YOU

[@brendaneafsey9156]

Thanks for watching Brenda;)

Just made two of these this afternoon. Love them! I’m watching this tutorial 4 years after it was posted. You are the gift that keeps on giving Jean. Hope you are getting your much deserved rest. Thanks!!

Jean…watching this in June 2023. Making a table runner for a charity fundraiser. I needed a refresher. Thanks for the great tutorial! Love ya! 💕🧵🌸

You are so welcome!

[@mollyfavret1826]

Thanks for this tutorial. I added it to my “Jean T to do “ playlist. Nasty comments usually come from unhappy people. We are all happy with the way you are! Keep the tutorials coming, and don’t change the way you are just to please them. Ignoring them is the best way to handle it.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Thank you Molly! I appreciate that and realize, since embarking on this KZbin thing, that there are many more nice people than nasties~:)

[@rosasolano1779]

Don't you worry about, whom ever gets sick listening to you, as you say, " There are hundreds of tutorials where she may go!!!! God bless you....

[@marywolf1638]

Hi Jean - It's been 2 years since I last commented on your tutorial for the quilted table runner and I have made several of these in both Thanksgiving and Christmas themes and they turned out great. I'm making more of them this year for a sale at our church and I must admit, they all sold at our sale. Thanks again.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Thank you very much Mary! I appreciate you commenting! This is my go-to runner as it works up quickly and so pretty for any occasion:) Please take care:)

[@peggymacmichael9788]

Don’t ever apologize for who you are. They don’t have a problem with you, it’s really about themselves. You’re great

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Aw that is very kind of you:)

[@theeverlastingtruth]

Jean, you are an amazing teacher. I hadn't even gotten to the end and i was watching and going like 'she explains in simple language and its clear. She repeats the measurements so u dont have to rewind to understand. She skips the self explanatory parts and she even shows us the tricks she used to make it look epic'. Ur a great teacher. Then i hear the end and im like, why do people have to be so nasty. Not everyone is a motivational speaker. But also not everyone can make a good teacher. Even those great orators learnt from teachers who make things simple to understand, great teachers like Jean.. And u should be confident in that. U have found something ur good at and u use it well. Being all over the place is not a bad thing because it helps us ur students to understand. I think such people are only jealous coz they haven't found their own niche. Ignore them. Lots of ❤❤❤💕💕❤❤

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Aw Kiki...what lovely thing to read! You made my Sunday! Thank you very much! I suffer from (or enjoy :) A.D.D. and I realize my 'teaching' methods are not for everyone, but I have also learned thru this little KZbin endeavor that there are many more people than nasty trolls out there! You are one of them! Thanks again! I appreciate that!

[@elizabethh1815]

Jean, I LOVE your videos! I always learn something new! I sit down in the evening to watch, and I feel like I’m spending the evening with a friend...the kind of neighbor I grew up with back in the ‘60’s. Thanks for taking me home again!

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

That is the sweetest thing...thank you! :) I think that is what sewing/quilting is all about ~ relaxation time, not 'perfection' time, a time to lose oneself, even for a few moments, from the stresses of the world! :) With friends! :)

Those are not worth your trouble. Don’t give them an upper hand on you. Rather concentrate on us who do enjoy your work and trouble you go to to share. ❤

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Thank you for your kind words! :) I really appreciate that!

[@yvette6160]

You’re a great teacher and explain very very well. A beginner like myself loves the fact that you go to your sewing machine and ironing board to let us see the full process. Keep the videos coming. Don’t acknowledge the creeps, sometimes I think that’s what they want. Delete the comment block and move on. They will give up. They have obviously given up on life and that’s what makes them look for confrontations and think they are bringing some significant meaning to their lives “good or bad”. Thank You ☺️🤠🙏🏻

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Thank you Yvette! I have learned to 'delete' and 'block'! So many more nice people out there than nasties! Thanks again!

[@sueskanes3612]

You are delightful and you really show how to do things well. Part of sewing is the comradely of sewing and chatting even if only one is chatting. I love doing your tutorials.

Hi Jean dont worry about people with negative comments I for one love watching your tutorials. And also think that u have a bubbly personality and please dont let the rude people of this world make u feel unhappy because u do a wonderful job with your sewing and Quilting. Now that you have shown me how to do rounded corner on my quilts when I bind them I will be doing that every time now thanks for that.keep up the good job Jean for all of us Quilter that look forward to all your Tutorials when u make them xx

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Many quilters (if not most) like the squared corners of their quilts. I just love the soft rounded look. Just be careful to let the binding go very very loose around each curve, or else you will get a nasty curl-inward when you go to stitch the binding down! All the best and thanks so much! :)

[@BarbFishWykoff]

I'm a first time viewer and I found your presentation great. I thought this video was easy to understand & follow along. Please keep doing them they same way!! Thank you, a new fan😊

Aw all the way from Australia!! I am touched beyond! My humble and grateful thanks, truly! :)

[@PinkRibbionJayGee]

Thank you Jean you help us newbies to quilting and sewing so much! Often you find when new you would be frozen because you are afraid it will end bad. However with your help you have gotten so many of us from that frozen point into really doing this. I love how you added the batting I was thinking when I saw these before with the two pieces of material how I wish they could be more quilt like. You made my dream come true Thank you for being you I love your videos and find you so much fun to watch and learn from. Don't let the people who don't appreciate you darken your day just know there are more of us who need your help and learn from you. Some people just can't be positive you can't change them.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Aw, thanks for those kind words! I'm seeing a lot of people who are "FROZEN"....I say to start small and slow...then build from there! Maybe someone won't even LIKE quilting...and that's okay!!! This way there is no huge expense laid out and one can move on!! I'm so pleased to impart what little I know to people who are willing to listen to me go on and on!! LOL!! Thanks so much again~

I am in the process of making a table runner for each of my 2 daughters and my daughter in law. You have just given me such great ideas of how to make them. My answer to negative, hurtful words is, Into the green garbage bag they go, and, forgive them because they don’t know what they do. Bless you and your beautiful family.

Don't let them get to you, we call them trolls and they are not worth your time nor your wonderful personality. Love YOU CHANNEL BUNCHES!!!!!!! Oh and thank you for the GREAT lesson today I now know how to make a BEAUTIFUL table runner. Hang in there and let the trolls go live under a bridge, :0)

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

YES!! BOO on the trolls! LOL!! I was having a pity party for myself, but got OVER myself just as quickly! I know there are such lovely people, like yourselves, who are tuning in to learn a little something and relax along the way! Thanks again!! :)

[@gloriawhitlatch1004]

Hi Jean, I just finished watching your 2017 video on how to make a table runner, I really enjoyed it, I'm a new quilter and embroiderer so there is still a lot to learn. I just want to say I am so glad that you didn't let those negative comments get you down, I agree with you, if people don't like your videos, all they have to do is don't watch them, they don't have to criticize you or say mean things to hurt your feelings, all I have to say is that they don't have the joy of the Lord living inside of them. I think you are very brave to share your talents with people, I don't think I could do it. I just want to encourage you to continue on teaching and sharing, and I will continue watching.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

You are very kind Gloria, and I appreciate that so much:) Others...well...not so much;) LOL! I have learned to have very VERY large shoulders to let the negativity roll off of!! Thanks so much for taking time to watch me;) Have a lovely day;)

[@koriewilson3643]

Your not a loser!! Your a breath of fresh air. Try not to let it bother you. . .they just wish they had your talent.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Yea...that stung slightly, but I've gotten over myself and choose to ignore! My kids were correct and I have to develop thicker skin!! :) Thanks so much! :)

[@carolynkauppila346]

I like the way you teach. It's nice to see someone being human and not over editing to make it look to easy. Thank you

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Oh, being human is the only way to roll....LOL!!! Thank you! P.S. It IS easy - step by step and slow and steady!! :)

[@margaretgaither5311]

Jean, I do not comment often, but I felt moved to tell you this. People who make unkind remarks, are not worth robbing you of even one second of your joy. It is unfortunate that they are not yet evolved as decent, secure human beings. I think of you as if we are both in your wonderful quilting space, with you graciously showing me how to do something that I want to learn how to do. I, like many, many of your followers like and respect you for being exactly like you are naturally. You don't ever have to apologize or put yourself down. You are precious and fun and GENEROUS to allow us to enter your world. I would venture to guess 99% of us, are thrilled to get to do that. Life is short. Don't spend any of your precious time letting any rude and mean spirited goon take that from you. Don't let them "win" by stealing precious minutes. Ruining your day is just what they, in their meaness, want to do....don't let them do that to you. Thank you for all you have shared with us!!!!! You are again, precious.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Such nice kind words. Thank you for taking time to say them!! I usually get over myself fairly quickly....was just having a pity party this morning!! LOL!! But yes, I truly feel sorry for such miserable folks....how sad to be them! Thanks again for watching me!! :)

[@josieclement4317]

you are doing it very well my dear, don't worry about people who do not know how to appreciate and can only complain.

[@snobunni426]

So awesome! Need to make one for my Egyptian busts. Don’t let the negative people get to you, just remember one thing: those people who say/do things like that are pretty gloomy people. They are miserable with their lives and just decide “oh I’m going to ruin her day”. When you think about it like that, then you actually feel kind of sad for those people. Don’t let them ruin your positivity 😊 please stay my beloved rambling ADD quilt loving person

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

I love your description of me....spot on!!! LOL!!! And yes, I DO feel sorry for such sad, miserable people....truly. What a shame to be THEM..... Thanks again!!! :)

[@JOHANNA-qd6iz]

You are who you are if someone doesn't like the video they can move on. Don't take it to heart, I am going through a really tough time, watching your video's make a very dull day a little brighter. Love the runner one day I will get to make a quilt or a table runner (when funds permit) please stay the way you are have a good week.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Yes, yes, I will!! I hope the future gets a bit brighter for you somehow.....its a tough world out there ~~ and when people choose to be mean ~~ what's up with that!! I got over myself fairly quickly....and feel sorry for such ones! Thanks again and feel better!! :)

[@kimmedved3628]

Thank you very much for this perfect tutorial It is exactly what I needed this afternoon.

[@sherrylawrence1273]

I am a new quilter, and I LOVED this table runner thing! The person who said nasty things, please, just ignore her and anyone else who is full of themselves. God loves you, and I do toooooo! Keep up the good work. We need YOU!

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

[@budstorey4493]

Oh my goodness, I am sorry that someone would even make such a negative comment. I LOVE listening to you! My time spent with your teaching is delightful to me. You don't know how much I have learned from you. Thank you, and to the person with the negative personality, never mind them, they have nothing going on in their life that makes them happy. Hurting people hurt. I will continue to support you Jean.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

[@audreyseccondro8519]

A brilliant construction, I Love it! I think that person that was mean to you should go suck an egg! Really why are people so mean, you are a gem and a peach and I thank you so very much for being so brave and putting up these videos! I have A.D.D. as well so I know how your brain goes in all directions while you try to focus on the task at hand! Don't let the haters get to you! And right you are about Love, share the Love way too much hate in the world! Your FABULOUS!

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Us scatterbrains must stick together!! LOL!! Thanks so much....I was just having a pity party for myself....don't worry...I got over myself fairly quickly! Thanks for the kind kind words!! :)

[@normawhitmre2992]

I have watched many videos on how to make this...Best video on this table runner....I like a teacher that will talk and show how to make this...Thanks

[@cherylgillmer572]

There is always someone who is negative. They have nothing better to do and they must think they are perfect, but as we all know in quilting and sewing nobody is perfect. I think you did a great job and kept my interest. Hoping to view more of your entertaining tutorials.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Thank you Cheryl! You are kind!! Others ~ well not so much! But I have had to develop VERY broad shoulders! There are more nice people than nasty:)

[@peace102]

I have made several of these over the last 2 years with your video. This IS my favorite table runners to make. I've done them with fancy quilting throughout on them, and one I did with numerous straight lines which looked so cool with the metallic lined material I used on one of them. On one I used several fabrics in one line and cut them into the sizing I would need to go down the whole thing. I LOVED that look using so many fabrics of the same line. Thank you for sharing your gift of teaching and sewing with a friend. Love that you chit chat as you go ;+) They beautify your home and make wonderful gifts.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

So pleased you love them!! How awesome that you enjoy making them:) Thank you :)

[@lisaramsey1185]

First I'd like to say that I thoroughly enjoyed your video and how quick I can make table runners. I'm terribly sorry that whomever it was that made the negative comment. Shame on them! When all they had to do was turn it off and watch another video or whatever they wanted to do. Glad I found you because the table runner that I was going to make was going to be more complicated than need be! Keep up the good work Jean!

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Thank you very much Lisa! I appreciate your kind words. What I have found is that there are more NICE people typing lovely comments than there are nasties! :) Thanks again!

[@alisonthompson850]

Please ignore those stupid negative people, I really enjoy your chatting and the way you take the time to explain things properly, it’s exactly what I need, thank you, I will go now to make my table runner.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Thank you Alison! I appreciate that! Let me know how your runner turned out:)

[@kylarountree6483]

We need you and your mind set. We need you to keep talking and teaching just the way you do it. That helps me understand what you are showing and explaining. Stay just the way you are. I Love you and your work. Thanks again.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

How very kind! I was bent on having a bit of a pity party for myself ~ but then quickly got OVER myself!! LOL! Life is too short! And so I will continue to babble and natter on ..........and POX on the haters!! LOL!!! :)

[@limin6yu640]

Thank you for teaching and sharing with us. Please be cheer up and we love and appreciate your work!

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Thank you, I will ~ such nice things you say! :)

[@jackiekemp7883]

Hi I'm Jackie from West Sussex England. Be strong and ignore people who have sad lives. Your tutorials are great. You are entertaining and exciting to watch, thanks for taking the time to care about people, you have a gift of communicating and teaching, you cannot learn that at school that is something that comes from within it is a gift, do not forget that. I will be making your table runner this Christmas for my family to share.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Thanks Jackie! I appreciate that;) Very much:)

[@sharonwilson8208]

Don't listen to the negative comments. I love your talking, it's like I've come over for a visit. And you are a good teacher. You've had 10 children. By rights, that alone makes you a good teacher. She can go somewhere else to learn. Cheer up dear Jean, I love my visits and listening to you, whatever you are chatting about. ❤❤❤😊

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

You're the best!

[@carolynlewis1264]

Be you. There will always be negative people. Don't allow them to get you down. I enjoy your tutorials. They can always go somewhere else to watch tutorials. I was taught to treat people how I want to be treated.

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

Yes, Boo on the Trolls! LOL!!! Thanks so much and for tuning in!! ;)

[@carolynlewis1264]

Sending you love and likes from Australia

[@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory]

You are very kind! And yes, battling ADD has been a life time of struggle - trying not to stutter, getting my thoughts tangled and trying to convey them in a sane way....the battle is real!!! :) But I appreciate folks like yourself who have the patience to soldier on thru with me!! :) Thank you!

[@kathywalcott290]
