Make a "Good Fortune" Quilt with Jenny Doan of Missouri Star (Video Tutorial)

[@barbarawest2750]

What happened to your hand Jenny? Ouch!

[@Sueetlinga]

I love to watch your tutorials. Please stay with this format. I don’t care for the live ones but I know that lots of people do. Beautiful quilt

[@loristein6074]

The quilt is beautiful but what happened to your hand and arm? You poor thing I hope it heals quickly

[@chrishaney1751]

Love this one, but I think I love the Bonus quilt even more!!!!!!! Thank you Jenny! Love your tutorials!!!!!

[@drudewitt]

Pretty quilt, as always, but I just want to comment how much I love Jenny. She's like the best friend you wish you had, and watching these tutorials is just so relaxing and reassuring. Thanks, guys!

[@stuckinstitches]

I agree she is the sweetest lady!!

[@shelleyramsey9410]

Absolutely agree....what a blessing she is to all of us!

[@sarat8574]

I was thinking that too...thanks for posting that :). Hope to meet her in person one day...if we're ever allowed to travel again.

[@jacquelinemca6614]

Ohhh.. she’s absolutely adorable.. 🥰🥰.. explains everything like she’s chatting with her best friend!!.. ☘️☘️☘️

[@ksharpe8137]

Speaking of being angley challenged....I recently made a memory quilt from my Mom’s clothing after she passed away. Imagine my surprise when I got it back from the long arm quilter and there were two places where I messed up. I was upset that I had messed it up but then I could hear my Mom say “Honey, it’s fine! That just gives the quilt character.” I decided to just enjoy the quilt for what it is, a memory quilt. Now, I never look at it without thinking of my Mom and how she was always such an encouragement when it came to my quilting. She was so proud of me and my quilts. ❤️

[@grandmalovesmebest]

How lucky you are! Sorry for your loss, your mom must have been a great one. You can honor her by passing on her quality of giving encouragement. She would be proud that her kindness was spread out into the world by her little girl. It helps me when I discover a mistake on my quilts, I say, "relax, it's a quilt (or wall hanging or whatever) it's not a wedding gown!" 😁 Makes work a joy, not a chore.🙋

[@katienorth1311]

I used to get so cross with me when I found a mistake I could not fix. Then someone told me the Amish quilters always make a mistake, because only God is perfect, so I am happy to go along with that too.

[@airmom8716]

What a wonderful touching story. I also lost my Mom- my best friend about 4 years ago. Recently I was home recovering from surgery and they had put me on prednisone. It makes you emotional! I wanted to make something and thought I would cut up my mom's gorgeous cotton shirt. I opened it up and it just looked like her to me! So petite and pretty! It made me cry- "seeing her again". Someday when I get to heaven is what I know!

[@airmom8716]

I made a quilt for our missionaries at church who are in Africa. They needed a queen and I decided to make 2 half sides and put them together and quilt on my home machine. Well, I photographed it and sent it off. The whole church had signed it! A year later- I looked at the picture again. I could not believe my eyes! There where I put the 2 halves together, I had put the wrong ends together and there was an obvious space ALL ACROSS the center where there should have been alternate blocks! I thought - "Well if I did not see it then probably they do not either!" It is the thought that counted here. I had a wonderful time making it too!

[@anotherblonde]

What a good idea! Bless you.

[@ginacostanzo1056]

Hello from Melbourne Australia. Love this block. I’ll keep busy while I’m in lockdown again!,,, thanks to you and your team. God bless. Hope your feeling better after your surgery.

[@sandratorres9635]

Wow! I am really taking a liking to the fresh new designs in the last few videos. I liked the sashing block and I really like the bonus star. Awesome!!

[@MrChipathenIsMyDoggo]

Such a darling pattern. Thanks Jenny! I love the way this woman sews!!! Peddle to the metal baby! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@kiajohnson8595]

Hi MSQC a Bonus Block book should be done on just disappearing 9 patch blocks you have done. Would make a lovely Christmas gift.

[@variegatedyarns]

Absolutely brilliant! It was like watching a magic trick. Disappearing blocks are always my favorite. Thank you!!

[@martirichards1424]

You are a genius! I just love how you make everything look so easy and doable. A huge MSQC fan! Thank you for all you do for quilters all over the world. You really make us feel connected. 🥰

[@kquitberg4297]

Ingenious. You are making my brain busy with ideas.

[@mandyadams918]

Hi Jenny love this - I like the bigger blocks and would be great as a quilt as you go quilt - can you do some qasg blocks - can get more finishes that way and I have to hand quilt all of mine.

[@terrymcmanus2971]

I love your messes, it shows how real you are and what really happens in the sewing home that ends up with happy and beautiful quilts.

[@annlange7519]

Thank you, Jenny for yet another clever quilt tutorial! I’ve made several! You are so inspiring & fun😄. I see you have boo-boos on your arm/hand. I hope it wasn’t an accident. Heal well, dear lady❣️❣️❣️

[@jeanniepatrick5533]

They are both awesome quilts, but I'm drawn to the star version! It's great to get two quilts from one LC! Love it, thanks Jenny!

[@sarat8574]

Oh, me too...my eyes lit up when I saw the star :)

[@katherinebrooks8505]

same here! my mom and I are both going to make this quilt. She's doing the original and i'm doing the one with the star :) can't wait!

I was up late and this popped up. Got my "Friday Fix" early. Thank you

[@marilynnorton9739]

I LOVE it . . I saw this when I got home and didn't even read the rest of my email, or reply to my sister's buddy list, but had to watch this tutorial twice. Thank. you Jenny and your crew for all you do for the quilters world!

[@holiday-td6hx]

This is my absolute to "DIE FOR" day of the week. I love Jenny's tutorials.....She's amazing (and so are ALL of you that work behind the scenes to make MSQC what it is...THANK YOU!) I'm going to be HONEST here. At FIRST, I didn't like the quilt colors.....then the more she kept sewing, the more I liked it. I have some Kaffe Fassett Charm Packs called Lipstick and I am thinking about making the quilt out of this. (Love Kaffe Fassett!!) I'm trying to decide what colors to do the sashing in. I want to either purchase the fabric from MSQC or go get the fabric to cut the 2.5-inch strips from Jo-Ann's. Any time you can get TWO quilts for the price of ONE.....it's a great deal. Thanks so much for all the amazing videos, Jenny! ************************************************* BTW....can someone let me know what is wrong with Jenny's hand and arm?(I think this was mentioned a while back but can't remember???? It looks so painful!

[@szelop]

holiday 2406 Just my 2 cents but I wouldn’t mix JoAnn’s strip fabric with Kaffe’s. JoAnn’s strips are wonky sometimes & the quality is not equal to quilt shop quality fabric.

[@HRHDMKYT]

Jenny had some minor surgery to remove some moles. She told us she’s just fine, needs time to heal though.

[@jennykiser2627]

HRHDMKYT I was wondering, thanks for the info. I thought it looked like she had gotten burned badly. Glad to know she wasn’t. Love Jenny, have met her twice, very sweet lady.

[@mandamorris7934]

Oh my goodness! This is outstanding....not only this crazy fun twist on the 9 patch, but you had me at Jane Austen haha! Happy happy happy.... thanks to all of you for your work!

Beautiful quilt as always!! I did notice that you’re a bit bruised up on your hand and arm. Did you have a tumble? I hope you feel better soon.

[@sheliaheverin8822]

Ohhhh, I really like the bonus quilt with the stars.

[@thomasasseburg]

Thank you so much! Love listening to you! Hope you‘re fine - your hand looks as if it‘s hurt... God bless you!

[@louradelaney8074]

This quilt is just so appealing! I’m still blown away about sewing a block then cutting it up 🤣

[@grandmalovesmebest]

Laura,😂😂😂. My brother used to say we girls were all nuts bc we cut up perfectly good fabric then sewed it back together again! Actually, when you put it like that . . .?

[@louradelaney8074]

GC Durnin true 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

[@sanbar50]

Jenny your hand and arm is very bruised and you have a bandage. Pls let us know you are ok !!!

[@bethkoch11]

So pretty. This reminds me a little of Jenny's Quatrefoil quilt from a few years ago. I made that one and it was a pleasure to make and turned out really beautiful. This one is similar in some ways, and I know it will be a lot of fun to make.

[@Sharon-pb7so]

I loved the quatrefoil quilt, I noticed the similarities. Jenny is so wonderful!

[@kathleenworkman5878]

Love this quilt idea. It's going to try it with purple and pink tones.... Thanks Jenny and everyone whom had a hand making this video..

Great for deaf people that you started subtitling your videos!👏👍

[@deleetrzaskowski4609]

Absolutely beautiful! If you don't mind me asking...what did you do to your arm? Are you o.k. :(

[@MaineIndianfeathers]

Your tutorial videos are always inspiring. I love getting quilt magazines and books, but sometimes when I read the instructions I have moments where I am like "what?". Thank you for doing videos for the visual learners

[@bonnieallmond9584]

I think that would be really pretty done in Christmas fabric.

[@Buthyful]

I have also same secret smile-to-self on my face as Jenny did @15:23 , when I turn fabric and see perfect seams matched. No matter how many years I've quilted, it still makes me smile and feel happy :)

Love it especially with the cross vision

What has Jenny done to get all the bruising on her hand and arm?

[@elainefiveland1462]

Nita Poole She had surgery to remove some fibrous skin growths on her arm and hand and she said she bruises easily. She’ll be fine.

I am blown away with this design. It leaves me looking and looking and looking. Your blue/grey sashing had made this incredible. Thank you for the second design. Imagine having 2 beds in the same room with one of each design on them. I’m in love. Thank you Jenny and team

[@jacquelinemca6614]

That’s a wonderful idea.. 🥰🥰🥰

[@Angela10226]

As usual something more for the list! My favorites are the Disappearing blocks. Thanks Jenny, you know what would be awesome if the Daily Deal on Fridays would be the fabric you used in the quilt?? I was eyeing this fabric for the last couple of weeks.

[@lisalaughlin7568]

This one is in the new Block magazine v7, issue 6. Love that most of the patterns in the magazine also have accompanying videos! I'm so making this.

[@evibarlian7344]

Thanks for sharing. This patterns need more work than the other MSQC pattern but the result is beautiful. Both designs are beautiful

[@sharlenesmith2455]

Jenny! Another winner (plus!). Love the inside out of sashing! What a difference it makes! Hope you are mending yourself! I cringe seeing the bruises & bandaids! (I bruise easily myself! Routinely, after any surgeries, I too look a sight! If needle or tape applied, bruise marks the spot!). Feel better!

[@patdahme4573]

I was thinking that it has been several weeks since the surgery and she is still bruised up. But then I realize, they probably film 4 months of videos in one week!

[@nitap77]

I changed my border from Cassandra to Elizabeth and instead of the Blue/Gray I'm using Bella Raspberry and Pink. A HUGE THANK YOU to the customer service lady that was helping me. I hate I didn't write down her name :( I was having trouble picking the accent colors online. Now I can't wait until it all gets here!!!!

[@JeanneOlson-vv9tl]

My disappearing 9 patch’s come out a little wonky at times. So I sew a 2 1/3” piece of background and split my 5” charms and sew them separately, in the appropriate places. It turns out the same and I alleviate the wonky factor. I apologize for my scanty description. I hope you’re able to understand. Anyway, beautiful pattern! Happy sewing!

[@KayInMaine]

Gorgeous block! Gonna make it (quilt)! Thanks, Jenny.

[@grammajo1889]

HELP: Instead of 2 quilts, could I make 30 blocks and make a King sized quilt or would it be too big? Would I need to buy more of the other fabrics to do that? I have been promising my son and his wife a big quilt for ages. She loves Jane Austin too.

[@laurelseegert9385]

How many times I've watched this video and I just noticed, you could save a lot of time using charm packs and skipping the "disappearing" part (Unless you like the tiny 4-patch). Just make the 9-patches and the cool sashing.

[@HRHDMKYT]

Beautiful! The thing I like about the quilt you demo’ed us how the sashing units produce arrows that point right into what looks like the inner border. I love that look. I also noticed that your 4-patches aren’t consistently pointing in one direction or another, it varies by row. I like quilt patterns that look great without having to be so careful with the layout direction! Thanks MSQC! ~Diana K.

Listened to you talk about sewing a block to the wrong block and did not notice it till after your quilt was finished. I did the same thing for 1 of my son's quilt for his bed. He had it for a couple of years. 1 day when I walked by his room I noticed the mistake block and thought? how did he move that block around???? Then I realized the mistake I had made. .

I started making the bonus quilt and had all the sashing pieces sewn together when I started thinking. When you put your sashing together with the color fabrics opposite of the 4 patch in the middle, but when it comes around to the other 2 sides, the colors match up with the 4 patch. I was thinking...if I would have taken half of the sashing pieces and snowballed them in the opposite order then all the sashing pieces would come out opposite of the matching color all around the 4 patch. Does that make sense?
