Margaret, I just found you, where have you been my Angel! I’m literally crying my eyes out because I have been out of school since 1989 and I have been having such trouble with the math part of quilting, nobody on KZbin has been able to explain this the way you have, you have a special gift!! I would give you a huge hug if I had you in front of me! You might think that I’m exaggerating, but you have no idea how it feels to be stuck on projects because of the measuring which transitions into bad cutting for me. Thank you so so so much and now I’m going to look at all the content you have posted and I will quilt until I have life left in me! Thank you, Roma the grateful quilter!

Thank you so much for explaining me how to use the ruler thank you

[@lorrainecrance5056]

I had just pulled up a ruler rule. I had to use my old brain... Then a week later I found this and so glad cuz my brain had got it right! I had to cut my fabric and make my block to make sure it was correct, but the whole time I had a sinkin feeling, what if I were wrong? That's what's great about you, you make it all understandable and don't make us feel like big old dummies! Like it hasn't been like a bizallion years since I was in grade school LOL

[@eyeonart6865]

Which size is better 5x5, 6x6, or 12x12 for everyday use?

[@MargaretLeuwenQuilting]

I grab the 6.5" x 6.5" and the 8.5" x 24.5" Creative Grids rulers the most!

[@grandmalovesmebest]

WHAT? Can you BE more confusing? Try a dry run before filming or doing the explanation in front of someone first or speak into a recorder then listen to it all prior to filming. Then, work on how the info can be organized and clarified. We do appreciate the attempt to share knowledge but watching a video how-to on you tube is our attempt to learn something new. Please lecture with that fact in mind. Put in the extra effort and your channel will shine. You will be our go-to trainer while others are blathering on in the verbose manner too common to you tube vids. Thank you and have a fantastic day yourself.
