Oh so pretty. Thanks for doing all of the Christmas videos. I haven't seen a lot of folks doing them. I started my Christmas sampler in Nov. and still working on it, but I'm getting a lot of great ideas for next year! Thank you, Jessica.❤

This is exactly how I construct my quilted potholders, coasters, and casserole trivets. Very sturdy and beautiful.

I bought insulbright a few years ago to make placemats or hot pads....and never did. I think I have time to make a few for Christmas. Thanks for the great idea!!! P.S. I can NOT wait for your next video to drop....love all your content.

[@jessica_dayon]

Great video, love the block albeit a bit of a challenge. Thanks for making it.❤

[@cherylskiles8524]

Beautiful project Jessica! Thank you for sharing, and merry Christmas to you and your family ❤

[@maryb1111]

Lovely project. Question, what stitch length do you use when you quilt on your machine?

[@jessica_dayon]

It depends on what I'm quilting and the look that I want. Here I think I did a 2.75.

[@kendranewton9071]

Love this block with all those gorgeous prints! Thanks! Merry Christmas 😊

[@jessica_dayon]

Thank you!

Thank you!

[@francesmiller8601]

Great block and turn out great. Thanks ❤

[@karenwalker9848]

Really like the block, and you have made it look so easy. If you have a side table, it would look nice as a topper with a lamp on it. Thank you x

[@jessica_dayon]

Thanks!

[@lindaevans9781]

I love this block so pretty!

[@vckstr312]

Love this quilt block!

[@mammafo]

I find I get shifting even with a walking foot. And changing direction with each row helped

[@renestovall9226]

Beautiful! 🎄🎄🎄

[@marionbarber984]

Thank you for the great idea, Jessica! Last year was bowl cozies with Kris O'Neill. This tear, hot pads! My sisters may tell me they have too many, well, too bad. Take care. Marion

[@jessica_dayon]

You’re welcome, Marion! I’m glad you liked the idea!

[@mari-annstumblingbear174]

So Beautiful!

[@jeane.2722]

Thx

[@sandrahaigh2976]

❤️💚

[@debralucca7527]

Beautiful. This would look great in a quilt. ❤

[@jessica_dayon]

Yes! I'm working on that 😉

[@debralucca7527]

@jessica_dayon Great. Thank you. Looking forward to following your instructions. ❤️

[@mrschefyoda7825]

really cute pattern!!

[@carolcarter865]

Another beautiful block and Christmas gift to make. Thanks❤

[@margienell4401]

I just realized I got your Precut Parade Book. I think I bought it last year when Martingale was having that big sale. You are so talented!

[@jessica_dayon]

Thank you!

[@Sewmena918]

This turned out so pretty! ❤

[@jessica_dayon]

Thank you!

[@BEVERLYRANDOLPH-lx4qu]

Okay this is a challenge I can manage as soon as I finish my cat quilt and get it to the quilter. I have several QOV’s in the works, so a block I’ve never made before will fit right into those. I still need to press my “tiny pieces” quilt-which turned out fabulous, btw-and stitch the “victory lap” around it. Was that the October challenge? I think I skipped November, maybe. I so enjoy your videos with my coffee in the mornings! ❤

[@jessica_dayon]

Yes, the tiny piecing was October. November was the stocking but you mentioned in a comment that you were going to skip that one. Thanks for watching!

[@JC-sf2qm]

Beautiful ❤

[@jessica_dayon]

Thanks!

[@DianaForee]

Great job!

[@jessica_dayon]

Thanks!

[@reneedickerson4489]

❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊

[@roseannecarratkinson4271]

I love how you simplified this adorable block. What fabric line are you using? I love them.

[@jessica_dayon]

Thanks! These prints are just from my scraps, not one collection.

[@nrobinson7951]

Hi Jessica, very pretty.

[@jessica_dayon]

Thank you!

[@leannalaughlin1200]

Looks great! Does this block have a name?

[@jessica_dayon]

You know, I'm not sure. I'll look into it.

[@anaf.848]

I'm curious; you mentioned that normally you wouldn't iron your pieces first, but did so we could see the layout. Is this just for convenience, or does it help you assemble the block easier by not ironing first? Thanks 😊

[@jessica_dayon]

I typically prefer to finger press instead of iron press. I find that finger pressing gives really great results, with no warping, and saves time too.

[@karenwerts2331]

[@quiltcavequilter6952]

Great block ❤🤍💚 Does it have a name? Love how you made it with flying geese and HST’s.

[@jessica_dayon]

Thanks! I'm not sure. I'll look into it.
