Excellent explanation of "Quilty Math" which often confuses those who have been quilting for years! You are a very clear & patient teacher!
Wow! Such a great video…especially with the extra attention to pressing the seams!
A must watch for anyone learning this block. Thank you!
Great tool for beginners!! Thank you for teaching all the math!
thank you! Math is one of the aspects of quilting that can scare people away, which I totally understand! Hopefully this will help some beginners get over that annoying hump :)
How I wish I had seen this video at the beginning of my quilting journey! I'm a relatively new quilter who learned how to do it from RUclips. So many of the very popular sites skip the "why" of doing things, and show bad technique in pressing, pinning. You show and explain so clearly; it's a real learning experience. Thank-you.
Thanks so much for your help, for us new beginners.
Such a helpful tutorial! You're such a good instructor! Thank you!! 💗The only thing I wished you'd talked more about is nesting the seams that go in opposite directions. This was a little challenging for me to learn how to do.
Thank you for making this truly step-by-step with clear explanations as to the why of the steps including pressing. Flying geese has been something I avoid whenever possible. Now I understand how to make the seams and points correctly, and like I actually know what I am doing!. You are truly a wonderful teacher.
Thank you for the subtitles! it helps to know what’s actually being said vs the RUclips auto subtitles!
Wow what an amazing video and an amazing instructor. You have not only made it clear and concise you have also made it look like I can be successful when I construct this block. Thank you , thank you!!!

Hi, I know how important closed captions are for some people. I find myself watch the words instead of paying attention to the video! I was trying to turn them off, but your video wouldn't let me. Could you please change the options so that people can or cannot watch with the captions? Thanks!
