Looking good so far Jessica. Can't wait to see the finished quilt. 💚

[@terrimccluskey1979]

beautiful quilt. One unfinished project... completed. so nice. The bags are cute. Loving seeing how you load and use the longarm. The color card for the solids is a great idea to have handy. Thanks for sharing.

The background fabric is soooo cute!!! Love this quilt! 🧵🪡✂️🎈 And the backing is a perfect fit!!!

[@rhondabaatz596]

Wowie. From left in the to-finish bin to such a pretty quilt. Inspiring to get at our stash. This will beautiful to display for spring. The border just sets everting off as a frame does to a picture. Didn’t realize how BIG your long arm frame is until you stood behind it. Big room needed for the setup. Thanks a bunch for being my morning motivation 🥰

[@conniefeldmann9864]

This is turning out to be such a lovely quilt!

[@LiaZannier]

Gorgeous quilt!! So bright and happy!! And I love the weaving look of the border!!

[@myralewis1714]

Love the bread basket quilting. Kinda looks like the back ground fabric.

[@Derf56]

Beautiful quilt - love the bright colors!

[@terryginter152]

I love your videos!! Thank you for all you do!

[@donnar.9244]

The Border really makes the quilt extra special

[@CynthiaKing-tx1vl]

That is a beautiful quilt. Love the bags!

[@joymoss1898]

The quilt is beautiful! I love how the border goes with the flower blocks. Thanks for sharing!

[@janisgrawey7477]

That is a stunning quilt. Love the borders. The blue backing will be perfect.

[@rhondastory6825]

That is a beautiful quilt. ❤😊

[@cjlittle7089]

Love that quilt!!

[@gwensmith7024]

Thank you, Jessica, for the envelope pattern- that’s an older book (11+ years ago). I don’t do a lot of foundation piecing - might have to give it a try, just love your quilt. I’ll look forward to the tote bag tutorial/pattern. Also, really like the basket quilting pattern - nice modern look. Your videos are always informative. Thank you!

[@Noreenlee1]

That quilt is just gorgeous, and I love the border. The purses are also great. When I make a purse, I spray it with Scotch Guard so that if it gets set on the floor, it stays nice and clean.

[@NanaAngie]

That quilt is beautiful! I love the bread basket quilting pattern ❤❤

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

This is a gorgeous quilt. Love all the details you share. Thank you.

[@lindakQOV]

Great inspiration for us showing how quickly you've finished this project. Now to put it into practice at my house!😉

[@wallyelaine]

Love your border on your flower quilt, so simple and unique 🎉

[@joycebeck2518]

Thank you. Love the border on this quilt. Looking forward to the tote bag video.

[@Sewmena918]

Your quilt is looking so pretty. I like to do chain piecing. I don’t think I always realize when I can chain piece, but it’s a huge time saver. My machine is basic and doesn’t automatically cut thread, so I’m wasting quite a bit. Love the bags. I have a few different types of bags that I want to make this year.

[@rebeccasewing]

I couldn't resist this pattern! I think I might not make it quite as large. It would be a darling baby quilt for a little girl or a wall hanging for my kitchen to hang for springtime..

[@anitamartin7639]

Love this quilt , the borders are awesome

[@brontebenoit6181]

You have AMAZING skills! 🤩🤩🤩

[@helenpeddycord2241]

Beautiful Jessica!💕🧵

[@nrobinson7951]

Hi Jessica, your quilt looks awesome. The bags are cute. Thanks for sharing

[@maryb1111]

This quilt is so adorable! Aren’t you glad you’re getting it finished? Can you share the company that provides the bread basket quilting design please? I’m looking forward to your bags pattern and tutorial! Thank you for your great videos and tutorials.

[@jessica_dayon]

It does! I buy my pantographs from urbanelementz.com

[@lindagillian8157]

I love your quilt!!

[@roseannecarratkinson4271]

I love your totes, they are adorable.

[@themirrorimagestitcher]

Always something to learn from you. Wondered if you would ever do a technical issues video on the sewing machine. For example, what foot pressure do you use for each foot, each step of the quilting process, does it change & why. You told me once you use 0 foot pressure. Since my Bernina’s preset foot pressure is 75 for the type of needle & fabric I’m using, other Bernina fb groups have said turn down to 50, then I tried your 0 and it really helped. I would of never thought to go to 0 on my own. Rhetorical question is why would Bernina make a preset of 75 if I need to go to 0 to sew a straight seam. I know you often comment on the foot you choose & why. I know all machines are different. Just wondering if you have more great suggestions or would share your thought processes on how you decide on settings for your machine. Thanks in advance 🙋‍♀️🇨🇦

[@jannyrosario9720]

I had no idea top/bottom & side borders were different sizes. lol Learned something new :)

[@sheilafruge60]

I have the Bella Solids and Kona cottons color cards, they’re such a good resource

[@jeane.2722]

thx

[@vcoleman7778]

I feel I'm stalking you so apologies for that 🤣! Just wanted to say I've just bought this pattern because of you, and also just bought your Avery and Open Ocean Quilt patterns which are sooooo beautiful, as a mega challenge for me this year! Now I want a long arm 🤣😂🤣 ... and those bags - wow - can't wait! Thank you for everything.

[@jessica_dayon]

I appreciate your support, thank you!

[@jeanservais3613]

Jessica, what batting do you use for a table runner ? Thank you ! Love your channel !! 🪡🧵🌸

[@jessica_dayon]

Most often I use 100% cotton but you can use anything you'd like.

[@simplyquiltingwithnancysanders]

Love the borders. Did you use white thread for quilting? I'm always nervous about using a dark backing with a lighter top.

[@jessica_dayon]

I used off-white thread.

[@lisalakoff9212]

I love this quilt. What foot were you using on your juki?

[@jessica_dayon]

It is called a 1/4" right compensating foot. It is not meant for piecing quilts but I like it.

[@catherinesofikitis179]

Gorgeous

[@shelleythomas1811]

What is your favorite neutral Bella solid for backgrounds?

[@jessica_dayon]

I like 9900 200.

[@shelleythomas1811]

@ thank you!!

[@gcosens]

Do you remember what the fabric line is called that you used

[@jessica_dayon]

Yes. It was called Feed Sacks: Red Rover. It is from quite a few years ago.

[@terrimccluskey1979]

Which longarm machine and frame do you have? I must have missed that in an earlier video. Thanks Jessica

[@jessica_dayon]

I have a BERNINA Q24 with q-matic.

[@susanparker2055]

​@@jessica_dayonThank you, does the long arm have good tension? Your quilt, borders and bags are very interesting and pretty.

[@karenwerts2331]

[@debraruffing]

Thread is the cheapest thing you will use today!

[@SewMerri]

Jessica could you please tell me what presser foot you have on your Juki? Thanks! ~M

[@jessica_dayon]

It is called a 1/4" right compensating foot. It is not meant for piecing quilts but I like it.

[@judychurch1708]

Love your border. Just sets the quilt off. I use warm & white and warm and natural and love them both but sometimes I want a little thicker. Did you say the 3rd one was warm and plush? I can’t seem to find that one. Where do you purchase it please.

[@jessica_dayon]

Yes, Warm & Plush. I'd do a google search. You can find the info on this batting here- warmcompany.com/?portfolio=warm-plush%e2%93%a1
