I didn’t read any comments or ratings or even watch the whole video yet. IT WAS YOUR AMAZING PERSONALITY AND YOUR LAUGH THAT JUST CAUGHT ME IN THE FIRST 30 SECONDS AND I PRESSED SUBSCRIBE. I do hope you have more videos. If not I will be watching this over and over. It’s well worth it. Lol your laugh is so contagious and uplifting.

[@carolinelogue6071]

Hi Matthew One of your tutorials popped up on my feed a couple of days ago and now I can't stop watching them. You have never popped up on here or anywhere else but I am very pleased that you did. I have never done anything like this but I certainly will do now. You are so talented and make such beautiful work. I can't wait to get started. I have only been sewing for just over a year and have really surprised myself. It is good to learn something new. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and look forward to many more 😀 Caroline From the UK.

[@peggylooby631]

Thanks for being so generous with your time Matthew! You are so positive, funny & entertaining, I forget to pay attention to what I'm learning. There are so many making videos of all kinds, but only a few are meant to be teachers, you are one of them. I love your first fabric collection "Loved To Pieces" (I think)...Lol & I am sewing with it now. I did just see you unbox your new collection & I can't wait for that one too! BTW, we are laughing WITH you, not at you, no worries, you are very talented, keep up keeping us all positive! Thanks again, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~peggy

Just when I thought i wasn't going to start anything new, and looking for folded fabric projects, i stumbled onto your videos. I gave up pintrist because i spent 6 hours on the computer and decided it was a waste of time. So far, i've watced about 8 hours of your videos and can't get enough. I'm pretty new to KZbin n hope i've subscribed properly and saved your posts. Or is it hacks? I'm 70 and really don't know how we lived without the Internet, Utube, Cell Phones, etc. You are so creative, precise and easy to follow. Ordered my plastic threader and small clips Now to order Terial Magic Going on a 3 week road trip and didn't want to bring my sewing machine. Now my project bag is just as full

[@mayaisabellalau1385]

Thank you thank you Matthew for taking the time to make another video with plain fabrics. I’ve been wanting to do this for a while now. Finally I’ve got my wefty needle so I can start making. This is so beautiful!!! 😍 😍 with your work as always. Helena’s so lucky to have you as a dad. You’re always so positive and funny.

[@beatboxschnurrbart]

Thank you so much for the great explanations! I just finished a pillowcase for Christmas for my nephew who is a Rubik's cube fan. I am very happy about the result and managed to do it as an absolute weaving beginner! Thank you very much! 😊

[@beatboxschnurrbart]

Wanted to share a picture of it, but I think that's not possible...

[@eshajain7915]

Thank you so much!! I did it! I loved it. The instructions were super clear unlike many other videos here and your vibe😍🤭! Had fun till the very end.

[@BeatlesFanSonia]

OMG, that was amazing! I don’t believe I could do that! My eyes were crossing as I watched that last color being woven!

[@scratchgolfer12]

WOW! That was great. I never knew the formula for a 3D weave. You are so awesome!!! Thank you for sharing.

[@yohil4614]

Saw this on tiktok I love the art and your bubbly sparkling personality.

[@francineshea4723]

I'm not going to make any fabric weaving but I found your videos fundamentally entertaining! You're really passionate about fabrics so much it shows in your beautiful creations! I love this piece!🙂

[@sandra-leebernier941]

[@debglastetter851]

Wow! I l like this one. It was great when you saw the Tumbling Blocks come to life.

[@rainylee59]

Thank you soooo much. I was having trouble with the last layer and you made it make sense with the z’s. 😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@amandapanda2284]

Speed STRIPPING! Thought I came to see you weave lol cool project. Can't wait to try this,it is so cool to see those blocks pop as you get that 3rd fabric in there my eyes were like what!

[@vontaperez6684]

Am I the only one who didn't see the z's?!!? Anyway, I loved this!! The final project was amazing

[@elstongunn4277]

Nope, no z's for me, either! I don't see where he sees a "z." Wish there was another way he would explain how to do it, or another pattern to look for instead of z's.

[@carolinenelson6432]

You’re so much fun to watch

[@lyndasnart7823]

Positivity fun and as always sooooo entertaining teaching always have a laugh with you

[@raquelwright7451]

OMG! You are fun to watch! You cracked me up lol

[@janied4591]

Love this tutorial! You did a great job. Small request: you referred to backing that you used as; “thermos web heat and bond mid weight fusible interfacing”...anyway you could just tell us, Pelon number such and such, like you did in another of your videos. Lol, would make it easier. Thanks so much

[@abdulhakimmohamedhussain9252]

That's amazing I am watching from Kenya 🇰🇪

[@anneshome]

Thank you, I gave it a try !

[@sewliloquies]

I just found your channel. LOVE IT! So creative. :) I have started using Washi tape instead of masking/painter's tape. Bonus: CUTE!

[@txsunshinecowgirl]

very new to your video and was not paying attention when the video started and i swear i thought since when does peter monn quilt lol, you have some great videos

[@kathleenkillen7820]

Great job. Now if I could only finish the tumbling blocks quilt I started over 12 years ago. The top and back are pieced but it needs quilting.

[@muntazirahmad8538]

thank you so much for showing/adding new ideas for us🥰🙏🥰

[@mamadahhhling6732]

I just came by ur curtain video for the bunk beds & I thought it was too cute. Thanks for not being stuffy, just fun as you show us ur craft.

Thanks for the upbeat personality, why didn't I see you sooner!!! \*.*/

[@sulbun2414]

Great project love it

[@karenwingrave4756]

[@lisawilde781]

I love watching your tutorials. But is there a video on the angle doll behind you? That's so pretty.

[@shorouknaser9177]

Thanks really ❤

[@Lisa-nf2km]

I saw it with the solids..so cool

[@ajmd3655]

This is great work.Can you tell me how wider each strip should be

[@kymrawlins8099]

that was brilliant. will be giving this a go xx

[@FangsShadow]

The "weaving is fundamental" saying is probably from Rupauls drag race, instead of "Reading is fundamental". I think they may have taken it from Paris is Burning though, although im not sure

[@marizasouza8230]

I love this video and your explanations and words motivating us. I would like to make a request if I could. Can you speak a bit slow on the difficult steps. The world is watching your videos and some people like me do not speak english. Thank you for your class and time.

Thank you Matthew so much for making things easier. What's the board called on which you pin the strips?

[@angelynbenjamin6661]

Thank you so much. 😊😊

[@tamrafrausto3660]

Thank you for teaching this technique! I now have a new passion. Love making these

[@lbluebird342]

My first watch, thumbs UP and Sub'd too! I LOVE it! I love art, but this always looked confusing to me. But once u get it, no big deal. Did u have too much cappuccino before u started...lol... Whoa! It was great, thanks for speeding thru it. I don't like long videos. I'm a "get to the point" lady. You taught me alot and I appreciate it so very much! Thank you!!!! Blessings, L :)

[@sandrasmith8489]

Wow!!!! Great Job

[@KerryFP]

Too cool!!! I love it, love you

[@sharlabrechbill5768]

The original quote was Reading is fundamental. Can't remember if it was from Reading Rainbow something else.

[@ericlagescalca6191]

Bravo, belle technique ❤

Appreciate you sir❤️

[@chandracox6814]

Love the shirt! Where can I get one? I already ordered the rainbow hexagon shirt you wore in another video. Lol.

[@dianepainte955]

What are the measurements of the grid

[@karenwebster8892]

Does your store sell the paper that you do that on?

[@marciakubly5822]

I am excited to try this pattern. I have this idea in my head to make a cover for my sewing machine. Do you recommend weaving a larger piece and cutting the pieces to size. Or, making smaller individual pieces for each piece that you need? I LOOOVVVED the colors you used for this one. I may try to find something similar. Thanks Mr. Domestic!

[@rosaliewright9503]

So to make a large blanket are you sewing the blocks together or are do you just do a larger grid? Are you lining the opposite side so the pellon doesn’t show?

[@giulianamiglioli3514]

New subscriber! Loved the positivity and energy you have. Awesome channel!!! Thanks for sharing! :)

[@davidmonday-qw4zq]

Oh my Gosh, this is confusing😂❤❤❤❤❤. I love it
