I love it when Jenny and Natilie are together.

[@donnalewis2858]

Love jenny and Natalie! I blame jenny for my quilting addiction! Started watching in 2018 and haven't stopped!

[@lindalee601]

What a great quilt pattern and double bonus pillowcase. Thank you, ladies ❤❤

[@pattistrain4071]

I love how Natalie smiles at her mother!

You need to read Jenny's book. It will explain (I think) the close bond they have

[@carolynlewis1264]

I loved the book.

[@Kim-tl4wz]

I thought the same thing. Precious! They're always your babies 😊

[@sunshineandwarmth]

I love how, if it weren't for the age difference, they would be twins!😂

[@HidingPlainSight]

yes she's 💞 precious... they're so much alike

[@cartersanz8648]

I am so grateful for you making quilting so approachable all those years ago. Your tutorial’s are what made me have the confidence to sew a quilt when I was a new mom. Now I’m obsessed till this day.

[@maggiehall8066]

The quilt is beautiful but more stunning is Natalie. You look amazing.

[@birgitstork5228]

Sewing with Jenny would bee stressful and so joyful in the same time for me ❤😂

Your so silly...at the same time.

The pillowcase makes a great storage case for the quilt!

[@annwitten4359]

I keep forgetting that we can make a pillowcase in order to store our precious quilts!!

[@Talk-to-the-Pugs]

No way that pillow case was that easy. Thank you.

[@laris2328]

Yes it really is that easy. Even with the French Seams, it's easy.🎉

[@debralucca7527]

@@laris2328 I agree. It is that easy. I got together with a few of my sewing buddies and we made 50 pillowcases for the million pillowcase challenge a few years ago. It was a lot of fun and for a good cause! Give it a try, I'm sure you will agree. ❤️

[@cwillis2033]

New pillow cases for all the beds ! 😆

[@Imjetta7]

It really is, I’ve done them.

[@andreazams4995]

the way you made the scrappy 4 patches blew my mind! I have never seen that technique before! I am still recovering from the shock!

[@sandybruce9092]

I never would have thought to do that! This is why we all love Jenny! And the girls, of course!!!

[@franblazer7289]

Love you gals!!! You make my life so much brighter in this dark world. Thank you for all you do to make quilting fun. Natalie you look wonderful! Wish I could lose some pounds.

[@candacecarroll42]

I had never seen the 4-patch made like this!!! I have so much red, white and blue scraps left over from previous projects that I can’t wait to make one of these quilts!! Thanks for this valuable lesson!!

[@sandracedar368]

LOL😂! Jenny is so talented - & skilled, too! I mean seriously - how many people can lick there finger and talk at the same time while doing the prep work for a fabulous Quilt?! Who doesn’t love these ladies!❤

[@sandracedar368]

P.S. Natalie, You look beautiful! I am so proud of your dedication to yourself & your family. You are definitely beautiful🤗

[@louisenoftall2083]

Beautiful quilt ; I had the privilege of visiting Hamilton and the Missouri star quilt company last month . I was like a kid in a candy store .I had the prof meeting your two grandsons and had my picture taken with them .

[@lisafuller2027]

I love your mother-daughter relationship! Ya'll are such good examples and sew much fun to watch❤

[@wilycat5290]

I haven't tuned in to MSQ on KZbin for awhile. This was a fun video and lovely quilt. AND Natalie, you look fantastic 🤩. Thanks for the video 😊

[@annettebrown4386]

I have never seen a four patch sewn that way!! Wow, I have a new way to make them. Thanks!!!

[@jennifershea7587]

So glad that you revamped this tutorial. I’ve wanted to make this for ages.,

[@tinaneely1]

I really love watching you and your girls. I have learned so much from you. All three of you are wonderful teachers, and so talented. You are superstars.

[@enellbrown5101]

What a fun way to make a 4 patch. Thanks for the tip.

[@SewWhittle]

I’ve made pillows using this technique and they turn out wonderful.

[@janellegibson4615]

French seams are amazing on these

[@patriciasweet151]

Love this ladies. Natalie your gorgeous. Smile says feeling wonderful. Not sure on the quilt for the holidays but the pillow cases be great for granddaughter. Daughter had panrcatic cancer. So an helping on this journey. I go to her and take her to chemo. We made thru the first six. And she's doing good. Even with emergency hernia surgery 2 weeks ago

[@bjollyhomes]

I am so happy to see this tutorial. I saw this pattern❤ last year and decided I wanted to make it. It was so pretty and looked simple enough. Unfortunately it was on another quilting channel and they didn’t make their squares like you all. Started making squares and was so confusing the way they did them. I now feel like a dummy after seeing how simple you all make it. Starting all over now and already can tell this is going faster than before. I’ve been a follower since you began years ago when I first became a grandmother and my daughter wanted me to make her baby a quilt. Thank you Jenny and family for helping quilters with your down to earth and easy methods. You make it so much more fun. Happy 4th of July!

[@thestitchingcouple]

I’m making this right now with scraps and white and I already know it’s my new favorite quilt. And I’m not a scrappy kind of girl. The white X makes all the difference.

[@dianehuntley2493]

I made a pillowcase to match their quilt for each of my granddaughters. They love them! I watched Jenny's original burrito pillowcase tutorial. Thanks!

[@pjinlaca5489]

I love this pattern. Want to make it with bright squares on a black background…woohoo

[@ConniePeck1957]

Love that handy way of making 4-patch!

Very clever combo of blocks. Beautiful quilt Jenny 💗🇦🇺

[@dialarkingsley3924]

Fantastic looking quilt. Ladies, you made it look so easy. I love the pillow case tutorial, so easy. Definitely going to give it a try.

[@marthagoolsby6921]

You’re a genius Jenny. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us

[@wendydavis940]

What a fun pattern! I never would have thought of making one. Your tutorial takes the scariness out of it. 😊 I also love the pillowcases. 😁

[@eunicehehir6374]

Jenny! The quilt is Adorable But the pillowcase process is Brilliant!🎉🎉🎉

[@nevafitzgerald2402]

I love making the pillow cases to match the quilt I always do a French seams! Love you all thanks again for another great tutorial😍

[@julieedgecombe6087]

I have been looking at all my scraps and I think I am going to start cutting them all in 5” squares and making blocks with them. I think I may do this instead of 9 patches. I have loved this since Jenny first made it!

[@nancyarchibald9095]

I bought this pattern, prior to watching your tutorial. It IS easy!! How fun. 🎉 * and YES, I enjoy making a pair of pillow cases for wedding gifts. This Burrito pattern looks so professional, when you sew French Seams on the top & side seams. 😂❤😊😊

[@irenecarrizales6590]

I am definitely making this for myself…my name is IRENE! Love your easy tutorials! Natalie is my kind of gal, so sweet & helpful!

[@denisepineda1788]

I love this tutorial and the fabric is so cute. Thanks for sharing your easy pillowcase. I had forgotten how easy you make it with the flange. Natalie’s face just shines now. The two of you on the video together is so cute!! Love it1

[@debbiebrewington7635]

In the recent past I made a stack of pillow cases and donated them to our community emergency services. A fun stress reliever for frightened children. I just used left over fabric, mixed and matched. 😊

[@sandybruce9092]

Thank you so much for both the quilt and pillowcase - I’ve been wanting to just make some pillowcases out of fun fabrics for my 4-year old granddaughter but can never seem to remember how to do it! (I’m getting old!!!)

[@michellewilcox5869]

i love your method for making scrappy 4-patches!!

[@ginat12345]

Thanks to your chandalier tutorial I saw a year ago, from then on I was hooked. Had never sewn before. But I have now completed 11 quilt tops. Which is a big accomplishment living in a 40' converted skoolie!

[@sunshineandwarmth]

Oh my goodness. You must be very efficient and strong! My apts have always been turned into sewing studios as I kept requiring more space.😂

[@sandraramirez7090]

Awesome quilt, but I love Natalie’s reaction to the pillow case priceless!!!

[@judithsargent9671]

I have to give that pillow case a try. My brain says that won’t work, but Jenny says it will. I believe in Jenny. Lol. I think I just might give the quilt a try too. Almost all my quilts I make have been from Jenny’s tutorials. I love Jenni style of teaching. Thanks for all you do. You have made me a much better quilter.

[@ruthhilsdorf3210]

Yes the pillowcase is that easy. I like to do the French seam, an extra step but gives a nice finished seam that will never fray out. I’ve made many of them for donation and when I do a baby quilt I like to do a small pillowcase to match if I have enough fabric. A small travel size pillow works great for when baby is old enough for it.

[@donnawatkins1097]

Great video girls! You always help me remember the steps when I forget. Thank you!

[@mandyadams918]

Love this quilt. You could also make with a jelly roll

[@annewadley438]

LOVE this quilt! It's my 'go to' when I need to use up scraps... and I've made TONS of pillowcases using your EASY tutorial.. thank you

[@laurieradtke6239]

I haven't been able to watch in a while - love the new jingle! And the video, too, of course.

[@HRHDMKYT]

I have always loved this pattern!! It works especially great with a charm pack (or jelly roll) from a fabric collection with almost no “light” in the prints, so you get all colours contrasting against the light background. Batiks would be a great collection to work with. Thanks Jenny & Natalie for a fun quick tutorial!

[@KarenGreene51]

Drove out to Hamilton yesterday!! Got to meet Sara’s Jason in the Vintage store. What a good young man. Got to make a quick trip back before we head back to Florida. The retreat building was busy with sewing machines at full throttle. Just wish I could have had a Jenny hug. I even told Jason the story about my first meeting with Jenny. It’s been 4 years since we have gotten to come home. Oh! Please have someone put up a sign at the red light to take a left or right to get back on 36. DETOUR!!! Loads of love.

[@simoneryan4487]

It’s a great quilt pattern and I love your four patch hack. I do scratch my head at American pillowcases though LOL. I so want to teach you how to make Australian style pillowcase where the burrito method can still be used for the decorative bit but the pillow won’t fall out because it’s enclosed inside…

[@susanmei9980]

Yes, do tell! 😊

[@sharonlatour6230]

The quilt is very cute!! The pillow cases are darling!! Thank you Jenny and Natalie!!

[@marleneturbett143]

I’ve made this quilt twice and just love the pattern I might make it again. My first one I used flannel (it’s my go to winter quilt). The second one I used Deer Christmas by Urban Chic and used the big deer panel for the backing. I just love both of my quilts. Everyone looks at it and thinks they were hard to make quilts but they are not. Thank you Jenny for your wonderful quilt patterns.

[@marycrowther8885]

I made this loved all the 4-patches and Hatchet blocks. I used my collected Siggies for my Quilt.

[@joanneferguson3784]

Thank you so much, I love this quilt and plan to start Sunday afternoon (already told my friend)..If is turns out to my liking it will come your way to long-arm..Glad you are feeling better. I must mention I always enjoy Natalie ! Thanks again.

[@marileetreat4403]

I love this quilt!! It looks so complicated but it’s not!! Thank you Jenny & Natalie! 😍

[@jeannemcmillintwinlakeses3767]

I love that you made pillowcases for the quilt. I make them for every quilt I make. If it's for a baby or child I do just one and larger ones get two. Even if the case doesn't get used I present the quilt inside it. Also most quilts are not meant to or are impossible to make long enough to fold up over the pillows like a bedspread so having matching useable pillowcases is a good sub for stupid shams that require extra pillows and somewhere to put the dang things when you want to go to bed. Can you tell I don't care for extra pillows just to look at?

[@sunshineandwarmth]

I know, Jeanne, extra pillows ARE such a bother unless you have an easy chair or a cedar chest in the room to toss them on. Idk why I never thought to make pillowslips to match my quilts bc i have made pillowslips otherwise. I guess I've either had my fabric come in a kit or just ordered the amt as directed in the pattern. I could make "scrappy" till the cows come home but I've rarely had yardage since I quit making clothes & took up quilting. Anyway, I'll try to keep that in my head for the next shopping trip.😁🙋‍♀️

[@lisabotkin4858]

❤️Love this quilt. THANK YOU for showing us how it is so doable.❤😊

[@debigraubergerleal7585]

I can see you could use a jelly roll very easily. Love this pattern! When I first saw it I thought no way could I do this quilt. I have a lot of Jelly Rolls so going to try and see what happens! Wish me luck as I am a beginner and not great at designing!

[@vickichandler5872]
