[@cmb8207]

Clever idea in using the laser!

[@yolandacofield5206]

Seriously, I am looking forward to seeing the progress on this quilt. I know it's going to be ready nice.

[@dakin7612]

Great idea using the laser pointer.

[@laurafritz697]

I also have use tools from my tool box for sewing! Long before I had KZbin! ROCK ON MARK!!!

[@arachne4757]

Your photographer is amazing!

[@janetbullard1105]

[@amyohl5037]

Laser level, genius

[@cindypeace4166]

So happy you are back!

[@guesswhonancy9028]

Love your fabric and thank you off to getting into hubby's tools 😂😂😂

[@jennaforesti]

Love the laser level idea!!!!

[@mwademinor]

Fussy cutting of sorts. The laser is a wonderful idea.

[@ericataylor9063]

Thanks for sharing 👍🏿 😊

[@jackietucker8942]

Using a Laser Light is brilliant. I may have to go buy one. I learn new stuff from fellow quilters all the time. I can see using a laser for all my cutting.

[@buffieklumpenhower8659]

Love the fabric and the use of the laser light. What a great idea.

[@yolandacofield5206]

Oh my! Now I need a laser!🤣I'm heading to Home Depot tomorrow 🏎🏎🏎

[@sarahbell3037]

Super beautiful fabric! Awesome idea to use the laser level. Gotta get one now. Lol I'm excited to follow along with this quilt. 😁

[@shirleyjussel1988]

I can’t wait to try your method!! Thanks. That is so cool!!

[@kathrynsvendsen8319]

Love the laser idea. Now I can borrow my husband’s tools!

[@nancysthings449]

I would choose that fabric too. And I like to see different tools in used.

[@reneegould646]

Love the print!!

[@deborahmarshall6263]

[@Ohio_Memory_Bears]

Beautiful fabric choice ❤❤❤

[@harryburkett7754]

Eager to see these blocks come together. Gorgeous material you selected.

[@loraineleuschke4186]

You teach well.👍🏼👏

[@trac6009]

I'm so excited you're doing this! I've been wanting to make one of these quilts. I'm hoping I find the time, but I'm so thankful you're back and so thankful you're authentic with your triumphs and tribulations! You and your family are an inspiration. Love the use of untraditional tools to help quilt!

[@elizabethcollins8817]

Smart ideas!

[@janemarriott3389]

Good to see you again! You make me think even I can do this! You make me feel confident and strong 💪🏾

[@connywelch5192]

Oh, l meant to add that l really think you are quite clever to be using your laser line! Thank you very much for sharing!

[@jenihansen7201]

THANK YOU FOR THIS. BEAUTIFUL FABRIC AND GREAT CUTTING.

[@yvethemetriccrafter688]

Great video , I love the Lazer light idea .

[@nancyjohnson2185]

Love your method!! 🥰🥰

[@gretroman8235]

Never thought to use a laser level from tool workshop. I have seen sewing machines with lasers but never used one for assisting with cutting fabric. I have made a few kaleidoscope quilts and am always amazed by the results. The actual result is always a mystery and has never disappointed me. Great fabric choice. And instructions

[@nrobinson7951]

This is going to be awesome

[@jaineparr4773]

I have been working with hexies, too. I love them. This fabric is incredible. The quilt will be mind blowing. Not all experienced quilters know about lining up fabric, for precise, repeatable cuts. Everyone has gaps in their knowledge. You just keep on teaching.

[@mariejohns1387]

That fabric is so vibrant and beautiful! Cant wait to see the blocks!

[@michele1491]

Genius to use your laser for measuring!

[@heidim7732]

I love the use of the laser level! - I maaaay have snapped a chalkline onto my fabric, when cutting wide material on the bias to make a costume for a friend. Good tools are always useful.

[@michele1491]

A chalk line! Genius!

[@kymburriss4260]

That is absolutely beautiful fabric ! The quilt will be stunning 😍

[@dc5600]

Wow, that is precision cutting. Thanks for explaining why you're using the laser stripe to cut. Can't wait to see the finished quilt.

[@theresajukiewicz3092]

It’s going to be gorgeous !

[@marylourimmasch4301]

Gorgeous fabric choice! You could have a lot of fun with borders in black, blue or any neon that is in the fabric. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

[@jojeffrie962]

Such pretty fabric its going to be outstanding Mark. Glad your ok. Hugs from UK

[@michele1491]

In process of doing one of these as well. I’ve decided to torment myself by placing a panel in the middle so it’s going to be a puzzle but I’m excited for the challenge.

[@connywelch5192]

I can see that you are enjoying this process. Being a Virgo, l am driven to be too picky and really work super hard at perfection in my quilts. I get tired of myself and my standards. I’m working on trying to lighten up as much as l can, so that l am able to enjoy the process more. When l get tired, l have no strength and stamina- must quit with a lot less done. I’m 75 and have fallen a few times and get viruses frequently. All l really want is to have fun with my beloved piecing and quilting, enjoying the process. Do you have any advice? *Side note: my dad was a Colonel who retired after 32 years of service. I married military.

[@sharonwilson8208]

Fantastic Mark! I saw this fabric and thought the same idea. Just enough background, but a perfect amount of "in your face" color in the wings...my favorite 🙂❤️

[@sheilamoran763]

I would like to suggest that you rip (or cut) your yardage down the center before making your cuts. It will give you better accuracy on the second half as printing can be slightly off across the width of fabric.

[@maryannnations2993]

Where did you order the larger cutting mat?

[@angelamaddux2917]

I need a laser pointer!

[@heidim7732]

The laser levelling devices that carpenters use are not expensive; that's what he has here, and it would be easier to set up.

[@eshannon922]

Too much unnecessary prep talk. Anyone watching or listening probably is not a novice quilter. I like the use of the laser work tool.
