[@britttreu721]

You are a breath of fresh air. Lots of good tips and tricks. Thank you. Britt from Copenhagen Denmark 🇩🇰

[@bettymarczyk9769]

Iv’e been quilting for 40 years and most of the quilt videos don’t hold my attention for long.Your format and delivery is spot on.You are a natural teacher.Just fabulous.Thanks for the video! 🧵🪡

[@karenheath3987]

I have been quilting for almost 3 years. I am mostly KZbin taught. I have never seen anyone explain block construction in such a concise way. Thank you for sharing your knowledge in both an enjoyable and truly detailed way.

[@judithbarnes4905]

I'm watching this again! (4th time) Thank you Kaye, for all your tutorials! I'm adjusting a big block to make it the size I want. Who knows if it will work out well, but I know it will work out at least somewhat, thanks to this tutorial! I'm so excited to start cutting. I've got my measurements figured out, and how many of what I've got to cut out. I hope you have a great day!

[@Gale4health]

I am an American transplant in Australia. I stumbled onto your video today and felt like I was ‘home’ with my family. You are adorable and very informative! Thank you, you made my day!

[@michellecropsey4238]

I love your energy and honesty. Teaching the basic 4 patch is fundamental in quilting. Can’t wait to see more.

[@patriciamcclanahan632]

Kaye I watched you many years ago. You and others taught me how to quilt. Looking Good!

[@susansommers2181]

Kay this was wonderful. Thanks for sharing the antique quilts. You are awesome

[@gennyburns5869]

This is February 5, 2022. I am so glad that I found your Patchwork Back to the Basics video this morning. I enjoyed watching and listening to your instructions you are very good. I will be searching for more of your videos. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge. I pray that God will supply the strength and wisdom for you to continue sharing helpful information to others.

[@bertharainey3175]

I've enjoyed finding your KZbin channel! Wish I'd found sooner as watching older one saw you had a sale! What a treasure that would have been! I'm 81 and trying to get back to quilting after many years away and your technique is great.

[@jod4365]

I’m glad you’re back, too, Kaye! Love your sense of humor.

[@viviajohnson696]

Love, Kaye!! Such a fun person to watch. Reminds me so much of Mary Ellen.

[@notremembering]

Been looking at many videos for a beginner, this is by far the best!!!! Thanks so much.

[@KayeEngland]

Glad it was helpful!

[@dianne57m.shifthappens73]

You are so refreshing, i think you could teach even the more experienced of Quilters. I love what you are teaching.

[@MelodyBastin]

I promised myself that when I retired that I would learn to quilt. Nothing scares me like a four-patch! Thank you so much for the help!!

[@quilt4evermore]

Love your video. I remember Mary Ellen Hopkins fondly. Miss her so much.

You've shown me how to make my own blocks. (& how to interpret other peole's patterns so I can make them the size I want). You've put the excitement into quilting for me! Thank you!

[@dianemalcolm7834]

I've only been quilting for about a year but I've watched hundreds of quilting videos. In the first 14 minutes of this video I've learned more about how to produce fantastic quilts than in all of the other videos combined. Thank you Kaye England for taking time to make these videos.

[@Terrie23JTN]

First time I've seen your videos - glad I found you! You're a hoot! I love hearing your descriptions, explanations, and stories! I'm going to have to try some basic 4 patch work to hone my beginner skills! Thanks for your videos!

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

So lovely! After the fun filled day, in my sewing room, I just finished, I get to sit with my hand quilting and watch you work. Thank you for your inspiration and talent!

[@joycesmith1270]

Thank you for your show very injoyable.

[@Lavender0646]

That is such a great tip on how your seams lay in a 4 patch and working in clusters!

[@KayeEngland]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lynnleipold2617]

This is wonderful. Thank you for doing this series. I have been quilting for quite a few years, but never hurts to hear good advice.

[@lindaosborn8276]

This is the first time I have seen you, and I must say you are a treasure!! Love your direct manner. Your love for sewing and fabric just shines out like the sun. Will be watching more. Thank you for doing this video!

I'm going to make a Civil Wat quilt, too - have gathered patterns from library books. Like a sampler. And finding CW fabrics on sale. Do you have a picture of what you've made so far?

Kaye, I can’t wait to see your next video. I’m a new quilter, having started to watch videos after Covid started in 2020. My sisters have all quilted. I’ve known how to sew for over fifty years and made lots of clothes but never made a quilt. I’m now on my third and fourth tops! One completed with all Kaffe fabrics. I’m going to try the nine patch next. I love seeing your collected quilts. So happy to have found you!

[@dianeanders432]

Love you Mrs Kaye ! You are a hoot! I love learning from you! Thanks so much!

Okay. Thank you so very much and have a blessed day.

[@normajeanmyatt3860]

Thank you Kaye! Your “pearls of wisdom” (sewing direction, to press or not to press, consistency, knowing where that quarter inch on your machine is) are so important. Best instructor! It was a pleasure taking classes from you at LZ’s! Keep these videos coming

[@Thespottedswan]

Thrilled to have found you! Liked and subscribed!

[@kimmyers7848]

Thank you a great reminder of the way they quilted back then. Love everyone of those quilts. I don't make show quilts. I strictly make quilts to be used and enjoyed.

[@bobriddle1965]

The best instructor I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.

I do spin my seams on 4 patches. Such a great exposition of basic elements that is essential. Seam push is one of those elements... Done right wonderful. Done wrong a fight at each block.

[@debrariley2057]

I have really enjoyed your video, I am not a quilter, but as a broad sewer be it garments or soft furnishings I thoroughly enjoy any one that can demystify any technique that makes new people feel it’s achievable.

[@beckybramlett3515]

I so enjoyed you talking about quilts !! When you said Mary Ellen Hopkins,I knew exactly who that was….she used to come on tv programs ( hgtv) and I would look forward to seeing her. Now the channels aren’t carrying “ crafts” shows,andI ran across you on KZbin as I was “ surfing “.🥴 Already subscribed to your channel. Now, I crochet more than anything else but these quilts and your talking reminds me of my grandma Garner and she taught me how to crochet . I feel her with me so thank you and I will be back .❤️❤️🥰

[@nancylittle1074]

Thank you so much self taught quilter. But you just helped me so much , great job love your humor.

[@cherylparkins6476]

Thank you so much.. you are so down to earth and the teaching you do is the best.

[@scottydog6539]

I was part of your Civil War Quilt group. I loved it. I have been sewing since I was 18. I sewed clothing. Around the end of 1978 I started piecing. I joined a Farmhouse group in my neighborhood and began piecing. In the mid 90’s I started back at piecing. Then, years later I started machine quilting. I learned plenty from this video. Reviewing so much for all levels to learn or relearn. Thank you. Love your videos.

[@nancyshaner8548]

Great explanations. I love the antique quilts.

[@annettemartin1848]

[@carolclothier]

Always something to learn.

[@gisellejones1139]

always learning so keep on teaching❤

[@GGC2019]

I just found you and I am in love with your personality and all the knowledge you have to share. The love you have for the antiques I share as well. I inherited some of my grandmother’s quilt tops and of course we made with warmth in mind for her nine children. Using clothing for the fabric of worn out or outgrown clothing. The stories these quilts could tell. Her quilt tops were hand sewn and her stitches fascinate me at how precise they are. I decided to preserve one of her quilt tops in a window frame with part of the quilt displaying the back so you can see her stitching. Quilting is a dying art and I am self taught with much video time that I have learned from. Sorry this is so long but I am so grateful that I found you on here. Someone that has your knowledge and love is also a rare thing now a days. Thank you sincerely for what you do here is is very well appreciated in my heart!

[@kayewebster9852]

Just found you today. Been quilting hard for 6 years. ( I have been sewing for over 68 yrs). Love your approach and your simplicity. I taught high school special education for 28 years. In My job I had to simplify everything. You have got that down! My compliments!

I just found your channel today and I have to say this video is both genuinely enjoyable and chock full of useful information! Love all those antique quilts and your explanation of seam directions and building beauties all from 4 patches! Because YES....sometimes you just NEED to sew! :-) Thanks again!

[@beverlyshepard7731]

Just found your video, Kaye, and am so glad I did! Looking forward to practicing your techniques. I am unable to do any sewing right now, as my sewing space is waiting to be refinished. The floor in the family room (where my sewing space is) had to be replaced. Now it needs the finishing touches, and the walls need painting!

[@ireneschlaefer4751]

I have learned so much in just a few videos from you. Thank you. I also laugh. You make it so fun to watch your videos also. I'm a self-taught home sewer. I started with a crazy quilt with a quilter's scraps she didn't want. I was hooked. I've made 3 full quilts and 4 in progress. I look forward to your next video. My name is Irene from the United States Maine. Thank you.

[@notesfromleisa-land]

Everything I learned in quilting I learned from internet. And practice to develop the visual and muscle memory needed to habituate your ruler, rotary cutter and fabric handling. Fabric handling at the citing mat, piecing and sewing. Enjoy your journey.

Glad your expertise is available to us, to take us back to basics for the experienced Quilter’s and guiding the new Quilter’s just coming to the sport!

[@kdavis1124]

So glad I came across your channel! Great tips and you are so much fun to watch and listen too. I’ve only been quilting for 2 years and I have recently been focusing on the basics of square and rectangle type patterns; and you are so right that sewing a consistent 1/4 inch seam, being consistent in the direction of the seams and sewing in groups makes for a much flatter, and squarer quilt block. Cutting tips are spot on too! I’ve subscribed and can’t wait for more videos. PS. Your “camera man” does a great job!

eventually we come across a no nonsense teacher with simple adaptations on those strict " quilter rules " we new people need to find more like you. then the light in our brain goes on brightly and brings us out of the haze
