That is so awesome using the Country Fair pattern and the colors.

[@mollysmith7191]

Yes, the computer images are wonderful! Your explanations telling the reason you chose co-ordinating fabrics is also educational. Thanks!

[@gailstafford3488]

I love the matchmaker episodes!

[@paulasmith6169]

Beautiful 😍 fabric as usual. Love ❤️ all the quilts. Great job again Fran. 😃😍😃😍😃

[@kathryngrusauskas8350]

My favorite part of the Matchmaker videos is the renderings of the quilt tops in the selected fabrics, and when you have shown fabric placements that you rejected as not as good. Tell your mom and Hannah to please incorporate the renderings in all the other videos as well. Thank you for these marvelous videos.

[@sharonleeirvin3320]

I loved this video how you showed what the quilts will look like

[@gisellejones1139]

You outdid yourself on these quilts!!!!

[@sandrakelley3210]

I love when u do this kind of show!

[@rosejohnson452]

Ohhhhhkay! The pic of the 3 prints really shows how accurate your choices are.

[@jljohnson8450]

I have Sarahs exact message fabric. Thank you for this beautiful combo, I would not have thought of these. Thank you Fran for the video on HST in a stripe. All of mine turned out perfectly

[@franciseaster2625]

Thank you for sharing bea quilts

[@deloresrast8543]

Beautifully done Fran!!!!

[@stellaunger8568]

Fantastic video, great fabrics Fran. You’re a genius at picking wonderful coordinates ❤️😃🌺

[@juliatepe5760]

Fran you have a gift. Thank you for helping people turned abandoned or forgotten fabric treasures into much loved quilts. The stories that go with these fabrics are unique and you treat them as such.

[@michaelandeileenkilloran8310]

Wow Fran! I think this is my favourite fabric matchmaker episode ever. I LOVE both of the moth quilts and how you pulled such great coordinating fabrics. Thanks for sharing your tips.

[@marionbartley214]

Great show Fran I like your fabric choices for the participants swatches sent in today. Also the fabric quilt sets you put together for everyone else are very nice. 👍

[@trishwinstead28]

Another great Fabric Matchmaker!

[@anitanoland9188]

Very nice matchings. Love the images!

[@debdunham1493]

Fran…you do an amazing job!

[@estelasteele1173]

I love, love, love the fabrics you chose to go with the moth fabric.

[@beckyblankenship6640]

The computer images are wonderful! I was thinking the Faith material would be too chopped up in the number 2 position, but seeing it, I was, "yes, of course, that works out the best!" They are all beautiful!

[@jenniestraynick537]

Love seeing the rendering images! Great show. I really enjoy the matchmaking!

[@FabricCafe]

Thank you for watching Jennie!

[@cindyoverton7824]

Thoroughly enjoy seeing the fabric colors and combinations possible with them. Your presentations are easy to imagine. Thanks for taking time for those of us who are " color- challenged"!

[@maryhelton-lasser1597]

As always another great show!

[@annielyst]

Great picks! You do terrific with these!

[@marshawallace7522]

I love this series so much that I might send in a fabric that I have struggled to find the right pattern and coordinating fabric. I especially love the mock ups.

[@ruthfreeman864]

Continue to show us the quilts with the selected fabrics..how the quilts look, with the fabric

[@virginiareitz7949]

I have used the Time Machine pattern several times and really love it. I do change the alternate block into hour glass instead of the half square triangles resulting in less seams.

[@6242shelby]

Pretty

[@lynnperschke3966]

I find so much in inspiration from this segment great recommendations love these quilts!

[@dianaduncan4800]

Where did you find the triangle trimmer? I need that! I always learn something from your videos. Keep up the good work.

[@FabricCafe]

Hi Diana, we actually carry the slotted triangle trimmer, however at the moment we are out of stock 😢

[@sandycampbell6600]

What software are you using to come up with your renderings-so helpful!

[@FabricCafe]

Hi Sandy, we use a program called "Electric Quilt 8." Glad you find them helpful! We try to produce as many as we can to show everyone what the quilts will look like made up!

[@carollantz5647]

How do I send a picture of a quilt I made.
