I'd love to rejoin your videos. I'm old school. I remember the popcorn. This is beautiful quilt

[@lisaakers4646]

I’m very happy you are back. I think you are funny and I love your quilt shows.

[@donnaduguay7532]

Oh thank you Angela for another great video . I’m so happy your back. We have all missed you so much.💕

[@shirenen8807]

I know that I am not the only one that is Sooooo happy that You are Back as The Midnight Quilter!!! 💖

[@brendahoward3808]

I have been in a quilting funk all year. I own a small business and the worry over the survival of the business and caring for and retaining my employees during the pandemic has been overwhelming. I have been a fan of you for years. In fact I “won” a fat quarter bundle from you years ago. I still have that bundle, its special! Sooooo very happy to see you are back midnight quilting! I am feeling that itch to quilt coming back after watching your first two new videos. Thank you for sharing your love of quilting!

[@stephiepeterson]

Very sweet of you to make that quilt for your kids' teacher. She will love it. It's so beautiful! (This is why I make little zipper pouches so often. I don't have time to make all the quilts I want to make for people. LOL)

[@lindaperkins5405]

Angela you and I have spent some quality time together this year. I got challenged to teach myself machine quilting. Between buying books and watching videos I am on my seventh quilt. Thank you so much!

[@toninoonan1135]

Sister you never disappoint! I enjoy you just being you. That border is fabulous, I can’t wait to try it. And duh, make the panel fit the border; genius. I need your common sense.

[@kathyclayton4318]

So happy to get to watch your videos again. I missed you so much! This is such a great idea for a gift! You are such an awesome teacher! We spent a week with each of our two families to help our grandsons. We have 3 grandsons in two different families. YES, we understand how hard it was for parents to do this. And I am a teacher by profession, but now retired. I cannot even imagine how hard it was to be both working from home at your full time job and also having to monitor your child’s or chlldren’s schooling. We did nothing else and it was not a walk in the park by any means. Thank you for all you do to help us quilters out there to be successful in our quilt-making.

[@esthermcafee5293]

I love this as an option for those people who deserve a quilt, but that I don’t know well enough to produce a family heirloom for. Like that super helpful co-worker that you haven’t seen in person for almost a year.

[@nancystorer4675]

I'm so glad you are doing your own show

[@gwenrodgerscarborough8800]

Angela, I love your videos! Thanks!!

[@piperhensley8994]

Another Great Quilt & and Episode of your new Midnight Quilter! Thanks for teaching us SO Much! We have Missed you! Piper Hensley Polka Dot Quilter

[@karenross3457]

As a retired teacher, I would be thrilled with the quilt.

[@glennyoung9010]

Loved the Dresden plate episodes. Makes me want to rush out and make one right now! Thank you for being so much fun. Annette Young

[@marysilverman2570]

As a retired teacher and now a teacher Nana, I am glad that you are so appreciative of the teachers. I watch how hard it is for the teachers with distance learning through my grandchildren. The educators are trying so hard to make it fun and interactive..

[@eniceburke5110]

Your show is better than ever. Love your cheerful attitude. And this border is awesome!!!

[@suecooper3016]

great video with some awesome ideas for easy borders. Our niece's comment during lockdown & home schooling was; 'no one in school told me that one day I would need to teach algebra to my boys!! HELP'

[@traceywaswick4207]

I loved the blue braided Dresden! Thanks for sharing your work!

[@kathrynsvendsen8319]

I would love to see an episode where you show us how to do the math so we can make a border like this one but so it fits any size quilt we are working on

[@LS-rh2be]

Thank you yet again Angela for such a great video. Your work is amazing! And you make it look so easy. Glad to have all your tutorials to help me in my new to free motion quilting journey. I’m a Nana helping with the home schooling and so feel your pain! Teachers are AMAZING!!!

[@lindadittrich151]

Awesome! Thank you for showing how to straighten a panel. I always hesitate to buy a panel, except yours and Natalia's, because they are always off-grain. Love the quilting!!! Shout out to all our awesome school staff, care givers, front line police and fire personnel, restaurant staff... Everyone out there working hard! Thank you all!!

[@melissab.3377]

I am so glad you are back! Love Midnight Quilter even more because you able to take more time and show things in more detail. Thank you so much!

[@terrijones3386]

I really appreciated you, I have a health issue and do not walk well. . I have learned so much from you but more then just that I ALWAYS laugh watching you. Happy Thanksgiving.

[@michellerennepowar2773]

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family and I am so thankful for you being here every week.

[@rosannethornley4497]

Hopefully a good Thanksgiving to your family. Beautiful quilt. I am thankful for these quilting moments.

[@doreensherk287]

I enjoyed your tutorial, the way you did the stitch and flip in the borders, and especially the quilting. A wonderful thank you to the teacher, it will be loved and used for years to come.

[@celiashell8667]

Beautiful job

[@judefarmgirlny4893]

Great video and what a great way to "dress up" a panel. (Teaching your own kids is always a challenge. I was a teacher for years & I know!) For us, you're always a fantastic teacher & I enjoy working through your ideas in your videos. Well done & thanks.

[@rebecca_________6048]

Your awesome!! Loved that you needed help with the math 🤣🤣 totally me!! What a great idea for this panel!! Gonna have to get the kit 🥰 Thank you for all you do!! So thankful to have you back!!

[@susierosefinlay]

FABULOUS! The teacher will love this quilt. I know that I would. Side note: I love watching you machine quilt.

[@dorrieborders4777]

It's so nice to have you back!

[@susanthompson3873]

I have never seen boarders like that before. Beautiful, and so much easier than they look. Thank you, I always learn so much from you.

[@winkielaroo]

What a lovely message to share at this time of year. I'm so thankful to count you among my teachers, Angela!

[@melanezoe]

Lovely, unique borders. Love the slight asymmetrical pops. After teaching online classes for 15 years, I feel for all the parents who were thrown into the stressful plight of dealing with technology and teens at the same time, not to mention the stress of potential illness. Good job, Angela.

[@cherylpatterson7911]

Thank you for a great video. There are so many panels on the market I never know what to do with them. Your panel is one of my favorites.

[@francescarose4677]

"I'd give them a kidney, but not a quilt". This made me laugh so hard, because I can totally relate.

[@ellensweat5251]

Thanks Angela. I have bought a couple of panels and have not used them. Your instructions on squaring up the panel are very helpful and I enjoyed seeing how you accented it with the borders.

[@bonniesmith7113]

Thank you for showing how you quilted it and the final reveal of the borders. The border is a great complement to this quilt and to the one in the recently finished ruler challenge. I am thankful that I found you as a quilt teacher and that I am now settled enough to quilt along and to learn. Thanks Angela.

[@michaelfaires3196]

You are so talented! I love your ideas for the borders!(Sherry )

[@dianaedgington8009]

You really jazzed up that panel with borders and the quilting, lovely quilt, lovely idea to gift to one of our frontline workers.

[@charlenecastaldo3602]

Gorgeous quilt, beautiful gesture!

[@jacquelynbianchi2736]

Beautiful border!

[@scooterpuggle]

I love this! I don't have kids in school, but what an amazing gift!

[@alicehourihan6923]

What a great idea making a quilt for a favorite teacher. This quilt is beautiful. I love the quilting.

[@chevydude658]

I've learned so much from this Gurley right here! She really has done so much for the quilting world. I would havebnever tried free motion without her hard work in producing teaching videos.

[@ceepark114]

I love your humor, you make it fun. The teacher is going to love the quilt, good work.

[@valleriejoy]

I didn’t realize how much I missed your awesome videos. I’m so glad you’re back.

[@lorim2074]

Echo, echo!!!

[@vickichandler5872]

Beautiful ideas. The pieced borders are fantastic! The stitch and flip method made them seem easy and are eye-catching.

[@loretta1853]

I am SEW HAPPY YOU'RE BACK. I'VE MISSED YOU!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE AND ARE DOING FOR US.

[@beverleybrowning3480]

Love the look of the added borders! And your quilting as well. Enjoyed the challenge using that panel - would have liked that border on my quilt too. Will have to try it on something else. Also, I'll ditto your recognition of teachers, being a retired one. Cheers from 🇨🇦🍁

[@lindastevens8392]

Love your sense of humor

[@mary-annz.reynolds7778]

What a great show! Thank you for coming back to us. You are amazing and inspiring! 💕

[@tashacrouse603]

I had no idea borders could be so fancy! ❤️

[@micheledickinson1110]

Beautiful, so glad you are back. Great idea to thank a teacher or someone that has made a difference.

[@kimsiehl9058]

You're so generous! Thank you for this bit of cheer!

[@pammcdowell8635]

Love those little curly lines!! So glad ur back

[@juliehoffman8480]

Loved the boarders! I have several panel I want to finish before Christmas but fingering out a pieced boarder is tough! This is a great idea!

[@lorim2074]

I've missed your shows! I love your casual humor and your talent teaching all of us who secretly or openly want to be you when we sit down to start quilting. And you make piecing look just as easy!!! This kit is on my xmas list, or my when I need a lift list! ❤

[@HHSDaily]

Great quality and a video I have been needing in my life. Thanks for being an inspiration again for me this week Angela!!!

[@suzannespence1659]

So I got a little teary at the prospect of you quilting for your kids teachers. These teachers are going to feel so appreciated.

[@susieinthecountry4434]

teachers are essential workers♥

[@anitawesner8584]

Thank you for the wonderful ideas! The border works great with the lines of the panel. I really enjoy watching and learning from your tutorials! Thank You!!!

[@gwynwellliver4489]

It is so wonderful when a parent takes the time to truly thank you for teaching their child and them! Thank you for taking the time to recognize your children's teacher!

[@paulafey6905]

Loved your borders. They really stepped it up several notches.

[@barbarakonkle2090]

This is beautiful and such a great way to give to so many that are working so hard during this very difficult time!

[@debbiejessee4004]

i love the border design!

[@surriela7101]

As always, Angela -you rocked it!! I would love to see a quilting diagram for that panel - it looked great.

[@combs1981]

What an awesome quilt! Loved the video and you look so pretty. We can definitely tell you are happy and doing well. Girl, you are so inspirational! 😊

[@cindymcfarland4686]

I absolutely love to make interesting borders for my quilts. This is great! So happy you're back!!

[@peachycheeks4394]

You are making this look so easy. It's going to be beautiful and appreciated.

[@tavasha001]

Welcome back, we've missed you

[@psutton473]

I'm never disappointed by your videos! So good to see you again and love this latest quilt! Great quilting designs :)

[@SaltandPepper8010]

I loved the second variation. That is a beautiful quilt at the end

[@QuiltedCloth]

Gorgeous quilting 😸😃🇩🇰

[@helenlebrett2673]

I just love watching you quilt: you do such a beautiful job!! And I love your blood donation joke!! :-D

[@SUZY55]

That came out so beautifully! The teacher will be delighted! You quilted wonderful designs into it, giving us so many ideas to try. Thank you, Angela! Happy Thanksgiving!

[@seaweedgreen4604]

Beautiful quilt ! Love your quilting design choices for quilt ! Made me want it for myself !! Christmas for me Thank you

[@RocketGir1]

Yay - the midnight quilter has returned!!! I can’t believe I’m just now noticing that you sew standing up. Do you find that helps your back? If so, could you please describe how you developed your set-up?

[@stuckinstitches]

Just beautiful and I am happy you are back!!

[@lisacecil1]

Gorgeous, as always! And the quilt too! 🤣🤣🤣

[@brendabowers6562]

I love the colors and the wheels that look like a blade .

[@little1942]

Love those borders! That’s thinking outside the blocks! Now to see if I can find space to put another quilt kit in until I finish the ones I’m currently working on. ☺️

[@rondacooper4578]

Very nice work as always. Your gain is Craftsy loss ! Thanks for branching out on your own. Much success

[@lauracampbell7644]

I definitely feel you on the at home learning! Thanks for sharing.

[@liletteautrey8481]

Very delicate work well done

[@luannjensen1044]

I love watching your video

[@darcisavelli546]

I don’t think I’d even qualify for the show “Are you smarty then a fifth grader “ 😅 They teach the kids so much more nowadays than they did in the 80’s. I love your videos and I think what you are doing for your children’s teachers is wonderful. God bless you, 🙏🏻

[@whitetimbercottage-quiltin2560]

So glad to see you! Good you‘re still around! Keep it up!

[@magscouk]

Forget algebra - you’re a quilting genius! Thank you for sharing.

[@marciasanecki15]

Love this quilt. And as always love your show. Thank you for everything you do 🙂

[@lisadavies7433]

Love that border❤️

[@DH-qz2so]

That is a great idea! I believe a satisfactory outcome relies on using the same "Line" of fabric for the borders...as from the Panel, otherwise it would not look right.

[@colleenbuvala4698]

YAY!! you're back! 😁🎉🎉

[@lineforget5092]

Always great ideas! :)

[@georgiamaynard7022]

Angela, love this idea! You would be on my list for people who stood out during this pandemic. So generous with your knowledge and skill your classes made me a better quilter and had so much fun learning new skills. Thank you, Teacher!

[@susanottwell746]

I use small squares cut from my scraps box as leaders and enders. Keep adding more squares as leaders and enders, and eventually you end up with a whole "postage stamp" quilt top.

[@gloriahenry546]

I have done the same

[@colleenjohnson2829]

That turned out beautiful

[@tammybrooks7528]

Love it. My daughter is a teacher...6th grade. Happy Thanksgiving. ❤️
