Quilts for Men & Boys - 3-Yard Quilts from Fabric Cafe

[@karin0963]

It's nice to see the first introduction to John, and hear stories of how he and Fran started crafting. I told my hubby I would make him a quilt. Thank you for the ideas.

[@donnaflatt5994]

So many cute quilts! I have 2 sons, 5 grandsons, and 5 great grandsons. I am always on the hunt for boyish quilts! I hit the jackpot with your video this evening! So enjoyed John being on the show. Hope you bring him on more often.

[@FabricCafe]

Hi Donna, so glad the subject was so relevant for you and the guys in your life! I'm sure we will have John on the show many more times. Donna

[@startbline]

Finally..super close ups of the fabrics! thank you!

[@FabricCafe]

So nice to see the fabrics up close and personal! Donna

[@glendarodriguez901]

Love love love watching. It’s what I look forward to most on Tuesdays and Thursdays!

[@FabricCafe]

That's so sweet! Thank you! Donna

[@brendamerelyn]

Im a charity quilt maker and so happy to find you and your patterns

[@jayneterry8701]

Fun to see John guest staring on this old show! Good to have a guy's opinion on the quilts though I didn't get the impression he did the fabric picking lol. When he said a young boy or girl would like the quilt I thought or a Mom who's into cartoons hahaha

[@susancarter8244]

I just found you on KZbin, I'm so glad I did!! I Love the quilts for men (anyone else too!). Can't wait to order a few favorites!❤

[@FabricCafe]

So glad you found Fabric Cafe! We post a new video every Tuesday and Thursday at 4:00 central. Be sure to subscribe to receive notification of new videos. Donna

[@AnnWooten-ll2jo]

Tell John he told his age when he was talking about pick up sticks! Love your books and patterns!!!

[@mollysmith7191]

The way you choose fabric & discuss the features simplifies the whole process. Seeing the different patterns of fabric is definitely 'eye candy', especially during this unsettling time in our lives. Thanks for brightening my day with your happy videos!

[@FabricCafe]

Thank you Molly! So glad you enjoy the videos! Donna

[@billiehayes3879]

Great having John in the video. Hope to see him again. Thanks John

[@FabricCafe]

Thanks Billie, I'm sure he will be back again! Donna

[@robertawestbrooks9531]

How awesome to see a mom and son combo:) Keep up the great work 👍

[@FabricCafe]

Thank you Roberta! Hope you have a wonderful weekend! 💛

[@rebeccasorensen7925]

I recently found your videos and have been enjoying them.

[@FabricCafe]

We are glad you found us, Rebecca! Hope you are enjoying the videos 😊

[@joannefreeman3573]

I am absolutely delighted to have found your channel. I dislike when little pieces are incorporated. Not my thing. I have tons of fabrics in yardage cuts. These fabrics will be perfect. Thank you so very much. God bless.

[@FabricCafe]

We're glad you found us!

[@lmorgan1028]

My Olde Glory will arrive on Saturday! Can’t wait to sew it up! Thanks so much Donna!

[@FabricCafe]

Awesome! Enjoy!

[@elyyoung4492]

Your construction quilts remind me that there is a construction equipment park for big & little boys. It was sponsored by Mark Cuban. Your videos are so inspirational. I visit your booth every year at IQF In Houston, Tx

[@FabricCafe]

Sounds like a wonderful park! Thank you for the kind words! We will be back in Houston this year, hopefully we will see you there!

[@mjp5129]

This is my favorite quilt. The brown, and rust. I think it’s the sew quick pattern. I have tried a while now to find this material. I emailed you all and John was quick to respond. Can’t find it, but I did find something along the same color line. Going to make this for my brother. It’s has like a country music theme. Guitars and such. He plays the guitar and sings, so that was even better. Thank you “sew” much. These patterns keep me from getting bored.

[@FabricCafe]

Yes, Sew Quick is a popular pattern and that particular version was extremely popular. It was a Quilting Treasures fabric, but I made it a couple of years ago. Donna

[@sarahtaylor4264]

I do Quilt of Valor tops. The desired dimensions are 60 inches by 80 inches, essentially big enough for an average height man to wrap around his shoulders. Women receive them too, but the majority of recepients are male. It is a wonderful cause to be part of.

[@FabricCafe]

Thank you for your service. And thanks for the feedback. I am aware a three yard quilt is too small for quilts of valor, that why we have" add a border" instructions free of charge under Free Goodies on fabiccafe.com website. Donna

[@marliennewhitt645]

Just found you channel. Love it!!! I have always used a 3 color style in most quilts but didn't know about you. I have learned a lot and eager to try more ideas of fabric choice.

[@FabricCafe]

Welcome to Fabric Café, Marlienne! We are so glad you found us! We love our 3-yard quilting method and try to share lots of different ideas on our show!

[@micheleh4016]

Can't wait to get my Play Ball kit. Hubby has been playing baseball since Little League and at the ripe age of 67 still plays twice a week. Also happy to get the Checkmate pattern with it since I have some focus fabrics I have been holding on to that will work great in this pattern.

[@FabricCafe]

That is great! I admire people who can stay active! Thanks for watching! Donna

[@kelley.jokibler9723]

Love your quilts and Love your videos!!

[@FabricCafe]

Thanks! Donna

[@shawnaleewhitney6630]

The camper fabric is so cute!

[@FabricCafe]

So glad you like it! We just reordered more! Donna

[@sharonpost8927]

Love the patriot quilt!!

[@FabricCafe]

Thanks Sharon! Donna

[@mellystorms7759]

You both are so cute. Tuesday & Thursday at 4pm is the best time of the week. Nice of you to do these during the pandemic with no quilt shows to go to.

[@FabricCafe]

Thank you Mellie! Donna

[@dianehuntley2493]

Little girls play with construction equipment too😊 my Dad worked on construction. I enjoyed the equipment more than dolls😊

[@FabricCafe]

You are very right!

[@Lani-Grace]

I wouldn't mind seeing a video about The Valor

[@w.a.stewart3191]

They use the skid plate on RV’s as well

[@FabricCafe]

Good point!

[@pattyward8898]

Hope all is well with all of you in Texas!

[@FabricCafe]

Thank you Patty! We are doing well. All thawed out and working to get caught up after the shop was closed for a week. Donna

[@vickiheath6133]

The patriot quilt is the bomb diggety

[@FabricCafe]

[@micheleh4016]

[@FabricCafe]

Thank you! You know how to make an old lady feel good. LOL Donna

[@suelemke8544]

Do you have kits already made up of mens fabric? That would be great, just an idea. These are great fabrics for boys.

[@FabricCafe]

Hi Sue, We have lots of kits on our website www.fabriccafe.com. We also add new kits on Tuesdays and Thursdays. There is actually a men and boys tab in a drop down menu. Donna

[@hollymcdonald133]

You mentioned on one of your shows, that one of your books had an error in it. could you let me know which book has a mistake please thank you.

[@FabricCafe]

Hello Holly, Any time we find an error, we put it on our website. We also correct it in the next printing. You can check to see if there is an error at www.fabriccafe.com/pattern-corrections-s/1957.htm Donna

[@vickieschlagenhauf9137]

just ordered a quilt pattern how can I open it? what software do I use

[@FabricCafe]

If you registered for an account when you ordered, the pattern is found in your order history. Look for Account in the upper right corner of the home page, sign-in and look for order history. Donna

[@pattyward8898]

I grew up knowing a family in our Church and Catholic school by the last name of Nosal! Probably no relation. They were originally from PA, but moved to Schenectady, NY.

[@FabricCafe]

It's a small world! Donna

[@laurakelly3371]

Could this pattern be doubled to make it bigger?

[@FabricCafe]

Which pattern are you asking about? Donna

[@nattamused9074]

I’m thinking of making a baby quilt for my first grandson, and my daughter said she likes a “Little Gentleman” theme, like mustaches, pipes, beards, bow ties, and books. Of course she didn’t tell me this until AFTER I had already bought fabrics with none of these motifs. Hahahaha! Anyway, I’m trying to find a pattern which might have squares of these things, like a mustache square, a beard square, a smoking pipe square, and so on… I wonder if anyone here might have some ideas?

[@rmlhardage4952]

Can i order and not be in wholesale . Personal use?

[@FabricCafe]

Hi Mary Lee, yes you can. Go to fabriccafe.com to place an order. Donna

[@Lani-Grace]
