I have made several of your quilts in the past couple of weeks. I love how fast they go together. I have been quilting for many years. My stash has taken over my house. These quilts are a great and fast way to use my fabrics. My family loves receiving the quilts. I just finished a queen quilt for my bed. I have seven of your books and use them before any other book. Thank you so much for all the great ideas.

Donna and Team, what a fabulous video. It is such a great reference. I am thrilled that you added all the pages on how to cut the backing fabrics for all the sizes, plus directional. Thank you for putting those free for us at FabricCafe.com. Then you put every reference in this one video by adding your tutorial on binding. Wow, I wish there was a Love button!

I absolutely love your books, have a pile of them. My oldest granddaughter cut out several "kits" for me when she was visiting, so I have Donna's designs to work on. It is nice to be able to go into my sewing cupboard and pick out what I want to sew. I taught her how to sew now she is better than gramma.

I wish I’d had know about your method when I started quilting and everyone said I needed a stash. No one ever said how much fabric to buy so I loaded up on fat 1/4. Glad you now have a pattern book out that helps me use them up!

Hi Trish! I think I've started filling that need with quilters. There's a time for long and challenging, but there is also a need for simplified quilting. Donna

Hi Donna! I have just completed three separate 3-Yard Quilt Kits, tops only, and am preparing to finish them with batting, backing, and binding. These are the first I've purchased from Fabric Cafe and think I am hooked! I love the way you coordinate the quilt kit fabrics, your pattern instructions are easy to follow, and the results are lovely. I look forward to viewing and enjoying your videos. Thank you.

Hi Donna Love the fabrics! Working on Corner Play at the moment.....with a much different 100% cotton fabric lol. I saw this fabric at Walmart that I really liked and just grabbed it......a few days later when i decided to use it i found out its duck fabric.....no idea what that is but it's 100% cotton so I thought...why not let's do something crazy and different and see how it turned out haha
