My favorite part: "I strive for 95% perfection, not 100%, so, if that's your jam..." Oh my! I needed to hear that.

[@noelquentin57]

Thanks for the tip about placing grain on the bottom or top of rows as you sew triangles together. I never heard this before , and it was a real lightbulb moment!

[@Imthatgirlie]

I cannot explain how grateful I am for this tutorial! I did not want to have to go buy a triangle ruler! As I have an omnigrid! Thank you for showing me how to use it!!!

[@sherryclifton4947]

You are the highlight of my KZbin surfing. Not only are you hilarious, you know what you’re doing. 😉😉

[@terryblair966]

You are fantastic. Your laugh is infectious.

[@amberp577]

I just signed up for your newsletter, you are just 50 minutes to the north of me. It’s so rare to find anyone with your abilities so close to me.

[@amberp577]

Mister Domestic I think it would be fun to get your opinion in person on how to finish off a a large quilt top that was made for me.

[@debbiestohlman139]

Thanks for the great tip on 'grain' - will certainly help me avoid a lot of frustration!

[@debmann5168]

That quilt behind you is so Gorgeous!!! I'm inspired! Thank you! :)

[@louiseah7662]

I was so scared of equilateral triangles, but now I’m going to give it a whirl!! Thank you for your awesome tips and boundless energy, love love love your videos 😘

[@kimannvitale3492]

You are so inspirational and real and entertaining and I adore watching your sewing tutorials. They are so much fun to watch.

[@glendathegoodwitch6987]

I finally know what a equilateral triangle is and will never forget it!

[@melodykowalski3469]

Once again I learned something from you that my HS Home EC teacher did not teach. And you give out free good vibes to boot. Love you and your sense of humor. Merry Christmas.

[@boywench]

needed this vid. you are so fun and a great instructor!!

[@horsepowerequineaz]

You are the freaking BEST! You’re the only person who explained getting the triangles together in a way I could understand. It definitely feels/looks screwed up when you put them together at first because of the overlap.

[@brendabaxter5060]

You make everything look easy

[@normajeanr50]

I always wondered how these triangle quilt projects would come together. I would never attempt one in the past but you make it look do able. Thanks for the great tutorial and all the giggles. Making smiles everyday Mr. Domestic. I love your happiness.

[@pamelacasey1699]

Great tips on straight grain and cutting without specialty ruler!

[@splibragirl]

OMG you are killing me smalls! Your laughter is just as fun as the tutorial! Love you, love your show!

[@BronPuca83]

You, are, amazing. Beyond compare. I adore you and your tutorials! You make things fun and easy to understand!! Thank you!

[@jennlouviere]

You give instructions in a way my brain can absorb it best. Thank you!!

[@hannahcrumley3103]

You have no idea how much you brightened up my day today! You make me smile - I enjoy your enthusiasm! Today was a rough day , I just watched several of your videos just for a “pick up” 😉👍🏼! This is a great idea- so many things could be made with these triangles. Thank you for showing how very simple it can actually be! I didn’t realize how easy triangles were- thanks! 🎄Have a wonderful Christmas!🎄Enjoy your daughter- the little days go by so quickly!☺️

[@janetteaguirre-terry2986]

I love that quilt and that fabric. I have a triangle ruler that I should use and totally do this quilt. TFS!

[@ToriLynnH]

Ohhh You Crack me up. Different than any other quilt teacher. "If you want it perfect.... it'll take more time. And I'm about being done. " 😁🥰👍

[@everydaypaper]

I wish I had your patience and talent! What a beautiful quilt💖💖💖

[@KelleysQuiltsandCruises]

I am late to this party but I love this method. No special ruler! Mathew you are so charming. It’s a treat to watch your videos. Many thanks from Chilliwack BC.

[@yvettealba7431]

You would be my perfect sewing buddy, ya baby!.😁 I love to laugh too. Thanks for the tips. Merry Christmas &Happy New Year!🎉🎉

[@chandracox6814]

Thank you for showing this using just a regular ruler!! I so many tutorial say to just buy the equilateral triangle ruler but this is nice cause most everyone who quilts already has the 6.5x24 in ruler with these fab lines!!

[@pamelapersad7686]

Great teaching session. Thank you very much for such a complete tutorial 😍

[@chrystalhenthorne8209]

Matt, you really got the point! Merry Christmas!

[@mayaisabellalau1385]

Mathew oh Mathew, you are so funny that I’m laughing to myself while watching your video as always. I’ve not been able to sew because I’ve been busy with the move but now that I’ve seen this, I can’t wait to start making something again. You’ve definitely brighten my day with your positive energy. Sending love to you from Brunei.

[@vivalasfreckles653]

Thank you! I'm making a pillow for my granddaughter out of clothes I made for her mom when she was a child. I've been cutting triangles for years and was afraid to start this. Your tutorial is so very helpful!

[@dulcilass]

Thanks for the video. I've never worked with equilateral triangles the way you are doing them. I've only used them in kaleidoscope quilts where I have to cut down triangle by triangle through 6 pieces of matched fabric. Those can be a struggle. Your quilt looks like a lot of fun.

[@silverraven2017]

Thanks so much!! Love your tutorial 💕

[@Vintagekindagirl3]

Oooooo. The grain tip! Fab!

[@bonnyhobal2329]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Your just the sweetest!!! When you laugh I laugh cause you is contagious 🤣🤣❤❤❤ Sending love!!!!!

[@AdiarraS]

LOL Boop boop boop boop!! lololol Your sound effects are EVERYthing! lol. I had the hardest time sewing triangles the first time I tried. Lining these up the way you did, makes so much sense. Thanks for a great tutorial! Fave term of the video: Pointiliscious! lolololol . Merry Merry!

[@Vintagekindagirl3]

You’re so funny. I also forget my words! I’m a music teacher and my students fill in the blanks. Hahahaha. I love this tutorial. I’ve always loved triangle quilts but have been really scared to try it.

[@patriciasandoval7048]

👏🏽You are super fun to watch! 🙌🏽 Boom boom boom!!! 😂

[@quiltmekiwi]

I like your glue tip.......thanks

[@yesvelas4]

I recently started watching your videos 👍, and I noticed that I was wearing the same shirt as you..how ironic 😁 GREAT VIDEOS

[@margaretlowe894]

Great tutorial thanks. Would like to see how you square it off.

[@michellecharles5541]

Small but maybe helpful cheat/tip is to put a piece of tape along the sixty degree line. That way you know which line to put on the edge of your fabric. Love the positivity of this (and all) your videos Matthew. Keep it up!!!! xx

[@michellecharles5541]

@@MxDomestic only learned it cos I did the same as you and kept putting the wrong Angle line and cutting lopsided triangles hahahaha. At least this way saves fabric. lol. x

[@grandmalovesmebest]

thanks! i cut triangles to make a cracker cushion wh was supposed to have triangles lined up in a row but when i went to sew them together they made a circle instead of a row! love your video😙

[@katherinemoore6937]

Darling you are fabulous! but Press Press Press is Best Best Best! Love your tips and your so animated you inspire me to try new techniques!

[@kimberlyfuse1162]

Im not even sure what you're doing. I just love your laugh 🤣🤣🤣

[@JennyLynne77]

Just look at those points!!! ❤

[@nikibaird9266]

You're adorable! I am new to quilting. This looks like something I can easily do. Do you have a video/tutorial on how to finish this type of project?

[@peggyblanchard5167]

Great tutorial!! You have such a great personality! I'm also loving your iron ! What kind is it?

[@paulinechia5583]

Hehe. So neat n nice thank you

[@Wisepati]

Love it! What about binding? How do you not lose the top and bottom points when binding?

[@angelikaimnaehglueck]

The totally degrees of ALL triangeles are 180. What you ment is, a triangle with 3times 60 degrees. I like the result and i like you having a fun day. Thanks for showing us.

[@TheQuiltingLunchLady]

To stay on the same ruler line use masking tape and tape along the line on both sides of the ruler. It acts as a a ledge to more easily line up your fabrics and then also is a reminder which line you use and don’t cut your fabric wrong

[@keelyalexis6998]

brilliant - please can you remind me where you purchased the glue bottle nozzles from. Gonna give this a go.

[@samhyvarinen455]

Hello Mr domestic! I am a huge fan of the show. What marching is Felisha? I’ve been looking for a good sewing matching. Mine is a bit simple and falling apart. But from what I have seen she is a very good machine! Keep being awesome!

[@SewGurl58]

What what what! Those points were mahvalous! What size strip were the triangles cut from on the quilt behind you? Love that one.

[@MEC03]

Hi Matthew! Loved this video. Very helpful. I've seen large triangles together but struggled with the machine quilting because there was so much bulk where the points intersect. Is there a good way to reduce the bulk at the points? Thanks for any advice!

[@MEC03]

No I guess I should try it before I asked. Thanks.

[@RaenaJacksonArmitage]

Boom, lovely! Did you have some music while ironing the strips, after the fast forward bit? (11’30”) I think some audio went missing. Or it’s zen ironing lol.

[@FreeSpiritCrafter]

Tell me about your iron, I like it. I'm left handed and I get tangled in the cord! Thanks

[@melissaolliff3272]

How are you doing the back side? this is pretty awesome..did you put the backing on yet..if so can we see that demonstrated as well? ty

[@melissaolliff3272]

Hi! Pillow? I have watched several of your videos..and I saw one before this one ...great quilt front but I didn't see the back..(sorry,...I watch so many..I get confused..lol)

[@Foxandsparrowco]

I’m probably late to the game but sound is lost after 11:25. Love your videos!

[@michelletothill8551]

I lose the audio at 11:22 when you bring out the pressing block. I have tried restarting and it still drops there. Hopefully it comes back on. I thoroughly enjoy your videos

[@darleneappleman3911]

I have a 6 by 24 ruler with 60 deg on it will it work

[@Danielle33384]

Oh how I love geometry! Not!! 🤣 But this is a great pattern that’s nice and easy! I’ve always hated math and somehow I managed to pick the one hobby that has so much to do with math! I guess those teachers were right...I did end up using math in real life. Even if it was to make awesome quilts 😉.
