Great stories! Fabulous matches! Thanks Fran for a job well done.

[@marjoriestraw1746]

I love the fact that you named your first kit “Perpetual Bond” as a nod toward the unique relationship between the daughter and her friend in Ghana. Well done.

[@andreazams4995]

so inventive. can fix any problem. Fran for President - 2024!

[@ellensmith844]

As soon as I saw the otter fabric, I knew it had to be a Charlie Parker design. His take on wildlife in his patterns is unique and wonderful. That's going to be such a darling quilt!

[@carlawilson3005]

FRAN, AWESOME PATTERNS THEY ARE GEORGOUS 🥰🥰

[@LovingHandsDesign]

The African fabric and the design you chose was awesome. Stunning!!!!

[@FabricCafe]

Thank you! They did turn out lovely 🥰

[@mollysmith7191]

Another excellent video! I too love the matchmaker videos:). The 'finished' quilt pictures demonstrate the power of colour & fabric selection.

[@michaelandeileenkilloran8310]

[@cliffordcarroll9320]

What an outstanding video!!!

[@wilycat5290]

You hit it out of the park again, Fran. Beautiful fabric selections. Thanks for the video 😊

[@anitanoland9188]

Using black for the background makes the focus fabric pop. It looks stunning! I was expecting the direction of the focus fabric to go up and down but liked it on its side! Thoroughly enjoy listening to the stories and seeing how Fran matches the fabric. Love the images!

[@cindymcfarland4686]

Such a fun series! I hope you continue the MatchMaker episodes.

[@kathleenfcpl]

The twinkle pattern with the sea otters is perfect! The 'twinkle' star blocks made me think of the otters holding hands since the arms of the stars touch each of the otter blocks.

[@cathylombard964]

These are my favorite videos. You are so good at this.

[@SewGrannySew]

Love the perpetual bond quilt❣️ so pretty.

[@daisy8297]

Lovely matches! I always look forward to these 🤗

[@cozyquiltsforscholars1787]

Greetings, I love this episode, my first time watching one. May I suggest, especially in the first & second quilt, showing the non focus fabrics in both positions? I definitely enjoy your quilt books and fabric selections.

[@FabricCafe]

Great suggestion! Fran

[@donnalynnhorniacek4785]

Great Match

[@emmonstrex65]

❤ these videos!

[@FabricCafe]

Thank you! Fran

[@annielyst]

These are my favorite episodes. Terrific choices. I want to send a fabric in but I don't have a heart-warming story - does that matter?

[@FabricCafe]

I like to hear how you acquired the fabric. Where do you buy it or who gave it to you? If someone gave it to you, was it a friend or family member? If you bought it, what drew you to it? What were your original plans with the fabric? Or did you buy it just because it made your heart sing? What ever the story, we love to share your fabric with everyone. Please have no fear of sending it in. Fran

[@annielyst]

@@FabricCafe Thank you!

[@nickyevans174]

Great job with your fabric choices as usual. Love the colors of your shirt, it would look great in a quilt!! Also, is that pickle slices in the fabric behind you??

[@loisphillips4792]

The #2 batik for "never lost" looks like seaweed!

[@cindygray4533]

OH! I see you cut it across the pattern not with it on the fabric provides. I wish you had point this out for everyone.

[@helenaMe325]

Great video but there were no close ups of the otter matchmaker 2 and 3 fabrics! 😩😩😩 Makes such a difference to see those fabrics even if they aren't used in the kit for the rest of us 😊

[@FabricCafe]

I didn't even realize this happened! Thanks for mentioning it. We will make an effort in the future to make sure we include those! Fran

[@helenaMe325]

@@FabricCafe I think you usually do show them but we'll forgive you this time as these videos are so valuable! 😁😁😁

[@cherylwilliams42]

What direction are you suggesting that the Ghana fabric be cut?

[@cherylwilliams42]

Ok. I got antsy and didn’t wait.

[@cherylwilliams42]

Ok…Perpetual Bond has won me over! Having visited S. Africa that quilts speaks to all of my love for the visit and the memories. Thank you for sharing that fabric and quilt.

[@bethpowell6650]

Could you please tell me the original fabrics in the Harmony pattern?

[@FabricCafe]

Oh my goodness! This fabric is from 2019. I could guess, it may be from Marcus fabrics. Fran

[@jashvantbhaidarji8734]

How you cut and stich sow in vdo

[@jeanettewithrow9641]

Three yard quilt books don't have clear directions. Thanks for video

[@FabricCafe]

I'm so sorry to hear you are having trouble with our directions. We would be happy to assist with any questions or clarifications. Please call us toll free at 866-855-0998. Fran

[@mjh9177]

Is it still true that the sample we send in for matchmaker is not returnable??

[@FabricCafe]

I do make the effort to return every swatch that is sent in. If you are chosen for an episode I will return the swatch with your complementary book and yardage. Fran

[@FabricCafe]

Hi MJ! We return all of the fabric you send in, along with the matchers that we select! ♥️ So send them out way, we love to see your fabrics and hear your stories!

[@mjh9177]

Thank you. I read somewhere that the swatch wasn't returnable and I have a #2 and #3 fabric, but no focus and all of it is already cut out for Stepping Stones. The squares aren't 12" anymore. I'll see what I can find. Thanks, again. :) @@FabricCafe
