QUILT MAKING "SHINY AND BRIGHT" IS SUCH A DELIGHT!

[@MarthaCatMom2001]

Donna, you are an absolute master of choosing beautiful fabrics that complement the pattern.

[@joycheek6756]

I have yet to see you make a quilt that wasn't pretty and we learn a lot from watching you. Thank you Donna and hope you and Matt have a safe and fun 4th of July

[@deeannamorrison8587]

You've gone and done it now. I can't seem to watch any other quilters without comparing them to you! You are such a talented seamstress and the fabrics you choose are perfect every time!! Thank you so much!!❤😊

[@sandramichaud8033]

The pattern maker must be thrilled to see your fabric choice and final product.❤

[@dianeperrett5688]

What a beautiful quilt. I agree with everyone's comments! It's a joy to watch and see you create these works of art. A new technique for you, even!!! With all your experience. Cheers.

[@Conniemayjones-vp2kl]

What I really like about your tutorials is I can see each step. You also don't say you have to have a certain ruler. You show an alternative. Thank you!

[@carolynthibodaux9823]

Beautiful fabric and design! Absolutely one of the most pleasing quilts I have seen. Donna, as always, you've done a great job!

[@kathypotts6155]

Oooh perfect! I've got a black and white fat quarter bundle just waiting for the right project.............thanks for your tutorial and inspiration!! You rock!!

[@lindarhudy1745]

I finally got myself a dumbbell, and I don't know how I got by without it all this time!

[@maryhutto]

Another amazing looking quilt by Donna! You never cease to amaze me with your choice of fabrics for the patchwork pattern. I would never have picked them, yet, I have to say, the result with them is very impressive!❤

[@louisedasilva6046]

This quilt is lovely, very subtle Christmas colours. Your cutting and sewing is so accurate. It’s amazing to watch. Thank you so much for all your videos. I’m always happy when I see that there’s a new one. 😊

[@bkcsewing]

Love your videos!!! Thank you Donna and matt

[@person2463]

This pattern and fabrics are a perfect blend! Also i guessed the thread before you even pulled a strand out (what do I win? 😂😂) . Thankyou Donna and team. Hugs, Chel 🌸

[@victoriarhodes7161]

So excited for another tutorial!! Thank you for sharing!!!❤

[@monaquilts4679]

Donna…get Quilters Select rulers. They won’t slide. I am a longarmer and used a weight for years. Now the weight can be a door stop. No longer needed with Quilters Select.

[@jordanfabrics8380]

I'll check them out!

[@maryh8689]

I agree, great no slip rulers!

[@lisaneff9024]

@@jordanfabrics8380they’re magic when matched with the QS cutting mat. You can turn the fabric under the ruler and no need to reposition fabric.

[@cr2884]

or you can spray your rulers with “Odif” grippy spray. makes the back of other rulers like quilter select rulers or fixes quilter select rulers when we wear off the grip. but i still use my weight. i like the protection

[@michellefa7482]

I love all my Quilters Select rulers. The absolute best !

[@sgtpepper.6511]

Miss Donna, you are such a great teacher. ❤❤❤ I appreciate how you explain each quilts process. Thank you so much. 💗💗💗

[@chriscowell7088]

What a beautiful masterpiece of a quilt! Thank you for your continued inspiration! 😃💝

[@Teresa-L.2024]

Beautiful quilt! I love stars, neutral fabrics and grunge. I think I'd draw out those double flying geese blocks and foundation papet piece them to save on a lot of fabric waste. Interesting technique though to create the star on a square look.

[@jacquelineweaver2530]

Beautiful! I love the muted tones. Thanks so much for sharing your time and experience with us.

[@michellekozak7394]

Donna, you should do a mystery quilt sew along. We could buy the fabric kits from you. Have like two or three different fabric kits in different colors. We would have to preorder are kits ahead of time.

[@aprilpeterson5210]

I’ve been waiting for that next video 😘

[@catheydayton6493]

I love that Donna uses the same ruler for most everything she does…she is proof that simplicity works. I have many specialty rulers but don’t use most of them…at some point I just thought I “needed” them.

[@kathrynmyer7209]

What a beautiful quilt - love the color combo!! You are such a master quilter and teacher. Thanks for sharing your expertise and love of the process.

[@pennyking-cox8124]

Beautiful quilt again Donna. Love the colour choice. Beautiful fabric. Thank you.

[@laurielahr9401]

A very beautiful quilt. My vision is going so I watch it on my TV in my room. Alas, I will have to watch it on the bigger TV in the living room. All the colors blended together, and I couldn't really see the prints. Were there prints? I guess I'll find out tomorrow. ❤🎉

[@teenaray8084]

I was so excited to see another new video from you, Donna! And oh my gosh, what a beautiful quilt it is!! As usual, you turned something difficult into something do-able. Thank you! I ❤ this quilt!!!

[@lucigoose1jakeman376]

Love your videos Donna. You always seem so calm. Gorgeous fabric and pattern. I love your colour schemes. Lea from Australia ❤

[@nursekate6772]

Ooohhh love this and I have the perfect fabric for it

[@caroleejacobsen1665]

Donna, this was very inspiring! You always teach so clearly and efficiently! I want to try this pattern. Thank you for showing how to square up my HST's with the strip tube ruler!! I love your videos!

[@lizreynolds4554]

Donna, this is such a beautiful Winter Quilt, that doesn't scream "CHRISTMAS!" I love Christmas, but it can be overwhelming, sometimes. This has new and interesting pieces to make the big block. I learn so much from your excellent demonstrations and explanations. Thank you for sharing this with us. Have a Cool Summer. 😊💖🦓Liz

[@lindadaparoe5737]

Another nice tutorial, thank you Donna❤

[@joseapar]

Love the block but the piecing methods waste so much fabric! I bet there are ways to redesign the block using no waste flying geese that would get you most of the way there without the waste.

[@tink5265]

Thought exactly the same thing. Strange way to construct the block IMO.

[@carmenfelts2125]

Lovely quilt. The grunge fabric was a nice choice. Thank you for the detailed instructions, you make it look so easy!

[@angelavorhees5946]

Well, this one surprised me. The neutral colors aren't my thing, but i loved the way this turned out. Looks time-consuming for certain and a bit tedious, lol, but really beautiful. The segment of the block that you had never made before was really neat. I've never seen it before either. Another winner.

[@monicapiszczek7850]

Donna, I just made that new-to-you portion today. I made a very similar star for a red white and blue table runner. I’m new to quilting so I didn’t even know this might be a new technique. I loved watching how you did yours. I didn’t look right to me at first but I trusted the instructions. That little diamond square in mine is navy blue with white stars. It looks great!

[@MelanieClaire61]

Sounds pretty!

[@marthapowers634]

BEAUTIFUL QUILT!!!! Thank you for sharing this tutorial. God's Blessings

[@MartyLawless-kh2jd]

That is a stunning quilt!! Very interesting block!!

[@gailstraka771]

[@rhondahallet8413]

Donna, this quilt is stunning and so sophisticated. I absolutely love your choice of fabrics. This will go on my bucket list.

[@janetcarroll7726]

Donna, you never cease to amaze me. You take a difficult pattern and break it down so any one can do it. This is really beautiful! I can't wait to try it. Thank you for all your videos -- I've learned so much from you.

[@RandallBrennan61]

I love this pattern, and the fabric selection is gorgeous. Does the pattern call for some of the blocks to be laid out differently, or did that just happen?

[@jordanfabrics8380]

All the blocks are made exactly the same, it is the fabric colors/patterns that make them look different.

[@teresanielsen839]

Have you ever chosen a thread color thinking that you'd like it, and afterwards realized that you didn't really like it after all?

[@janephillips6604]

Love how you choose the unexpected fabrics for your quilts. Love your tutorials! Another beautiful quilt! Thank you, Donna!❤

[@tamaracarroll6754]

The half square triangles on 2 of the blocks are facing the wrong direction

Hi Donna, perfect way to start the day, thanks so much!!

[@nathaliepotier2793]

Très joli choix de couleurs. Choisir des couleurs foncées comme celles des fat quarter ne serait pas mon premier choix mais ici, elles sont parfaites. Très beau rendu. Si vous avez appris une nouvelle technique, et bien moi aussi. Merci pour ce tutoriel, hâte de voir le suivant.

[@thesegarsfamily5954]

I learn so much from your videos. This looks like work AND a great payoff!! I look forward to your videos!😊

The Shiny and Bright Quilt is a beautiful Holiday addition for any home that could be used from Oct-March...Hurrah!. Thank-you for the tutorial, so if anyone gets "lost" in the directions on the pattern, they can go back to your tutorial. You are the Best.

[@beckyosborn9175]

I love this! I have some fabric waiting for the perfect pattern, and here it is! Thank you Donna!

[@BeckyHaines]

Thank goodness for technology! I can take you on vacation with me. Right now we are in sunny Strongsville Ohio. I truly have learned a lot from your tutorials and especially like how you make a difficult project doable for an advanced beginner like me. Look forward to what is to come! Home to South Carolina tomorrow and my trusty Janome. Becky

That is sure is a different block but your demo made it totally doable. I love how your choices of grunges still gave the whole quilt the look of silver and gold without it being silver and gold!

[@trudimcdonald927]

This is an absolutely beautiful quilt…. One of my favourites that I have watched you make…. The colours are gorgeous 😍😍😍

[@itsnicksanders]

Donna & team! I love all of your videos and am a “self-taught” quilter from watching your videos! I’m sure you get lots of requests for tutorials, but I would love to see you make “Star of the Show” from Cozy Quilt Designs! Maybe with fall colors since we are going into Fall next?! Thank you for sharing your talents with us!

How genus to use that fabric collection. P.S. you look gorgeous yourself! I retired two years ago and stop all workouts. Omggg I saw you this morn and out the door for a long walk. Good Lord, I'm blessed with this life! Happiness to you all !!!!!!

[@Dbatem]

OMG Donna! As a new quilter I love your demos. This by far is the most gorgeous quilt you have made. The pattern and fabric are devine. Thanks for teaching me to quilt. Three down and this one to challenge the hell out of me. Just one question, with all the corners you cut off what do you do with that fabric as it seems a waste? Also does your kit include the pattern?

[@jordanfabrics8380]

The kit does include the pattern. Sometimes I use the cut off parts to make small HSTs and use them for borders or in another project.

[@Dbatem]

@@jordanfabrics8380 thank you!

This was such an unusual quilt and I especially enjoyed seeing that one piece come together.

A very unusual collection of Christmas themed fabrics. The quilt is beautiful. I love the pattern . As usual, a well done tutorial.

[@MartyLawless-kh2jd]

I am grateful for Donna's tip to use the weight to hold the ruler. It allowed me to better use rulers I already have, rather than having to make another purchase.

[@carolinedubose5136]

What a beautiful pattern!! The floating square with the triangles is such a diffferent pieced section!! I would think it would be a cool technique to use if you were msking tulips!! Of course you would need to adjust the size and maybe the angles but my mind kept thinking of tulips when tou put the section together!! Lovely neutral color combos!!

[@traceylindeman3289]

Those fabrics are delightful!❤❤❤

[@dianakranning9843]

Your fabric choice was perfect. It always amazes me how muted colored quilts can be as beautiful as ones with bright colors. Thank you for sharing how to make another great pattern. Have a wonderful weekend!

[@melodywalls4693]

Lovely! I know I've said it before. But I'm saying it again. I enjoy you showing us how you pick the thread color for quilting ... and then the quilting pattern. I remember your choices/method when picking my thread color.😊

[@fireflydreams1791]

Oh WoW! This is probably one of my top 3 quilts that I have ever seen you make. I've watched a ton of your videos too, so that is saying a lot. I love this pattern and new star technique you showed, so much so, that I had to go to your website to order this pattern immediately. The fabric you chose was perfect for this pattern. I love this quilt so much. It is absolutely stunning! Thank you for sharing this beauty Donna.

[@dorothylabounty8263]

Thanks for yet another great tutorial. I have a suggestion about another way to make the “square in the flying geese” unit. I’ve used it in other quilts. It can be achieved using paper piecing. Study that unit for a minute or two…it can be drawn by using your rulers, or on graph paper. Once you figure it out, you can probably fit two of them on a single piece of standard computer paper. Copy to get the number you need. Ultimately, I think paper piecing is less fiddley and more square than dealing with all those diagonal/ bias seams.

[@lynnlockardquilting]

🤩 Magnificent quilt! I really like this color palette! That double flying geese (for lack of a better name to call it) block is spectacular!
