Love Doug’s creativity. He is a rock star in the quilting community! Watching this a second time. Bought his ruler and now will buy this book. Thank you FQS.
So fun to see and hear from Doug Leko. I have all of his books. I am so glad about using his table runners to make a quilts. I look at Quilts and see runners and blocks into Quilts. Good to see young man.
I so enjoyed this video today. Hearing techniques from you and Doug was just inspiring. Thank you for letting us have an opportunity to learn from other experts. FQS is truly a blessing to the quilting world.
Hi from NZ, watching on replay. Love Doug's patterns, they have brilliant instructions. Bought tabletops 2 & was lucky enough to get a signed copy. Have made & gifted some which have been very well received
I have been a fan of Doug’s from the first time I saw him. Is there anything that Doug does & shares with us not fabulous! Thank you FQS, Kimberly, & Doug for this interesting, informative share!
I loved the trunk show with Doug that you did a while ago with his Tabletastic runners/toppers. He has such a variaty of patterns and I also like that he showed different fabrics for each of the patterns. I have all of the Tabletastic books and now I'm going for his Stashtastic books! Thank-you! Looking forward to the SAL that you are planning with him. Bring it on!
Great show! Doug has been so quiet the times I have met him. I didn't know he was so talented. Sorry I missed taking classes from him. I am definitely going to check out the BOM's and join in on some of the sew alongs.
First time seeing Doug in a video. I also love the Presencia thread. It is so much better than the other thread people rave about. Less lint, finer and strong. 😍 so nice to hear someone else talk about it.
Thanks for featuring Doug Leko. He is a great pattern designer ❤️. And nothing has improved my quilting more than It's So Emma triangle paper and Doug's folder corner ruler 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I really enjoyed this - thank you - I wasn't aware of Doug until today, and as I live in the UK, would be difficult to get the books - but now I can get them on PDF!! Thank you so much x
I have very enjoyed the block of the month by Doug. Chatsworth. His instructions are clear and his " trim it down" have enough size to trim down without fear..you oversize enough which some patterns have narrow"oversize".
What a fantastic informative trunk and chat with Doug Lego. I’m a West Coast girl and found this interview so inspiring and interesting. Learning and insight into different regions of the country and how that affects quilting. When you need a break, go on a trip, go Doug!! 🎉 Thank you Kimberly 🌷
The first pattern I saw that I found out was made by Doug had me on a 6 hour deep dive into all things Doug. I searched every book, pattern, runner, or project that even had him tagged in it. I fell in love with his designs and I really like his eye for color and shapes. I was gifted some of his books for Christmas and I have a few things left on my wish list for upcoming Mother's Day and other holidays. I love chatsworth and think it is just gorgeous so I am using Bunny Hill Designs fabric Blueberry Delight by A. Sutton. So great to have a show with Doug featured.
#replay This was a wonderful interview and trunk show. I love the Chatsworth quilt behind Doug. I chuckled at the placement of fabric design in a few of the blocks. It looked like eyes peeking out of the quilt. 😊
I always enjoy Doug Leko! I have all his Tabletastic books. I hope I’m not too late to comment on the Liberty fabrics. I really like them and I’m so glad you’ve been carrying them, however I do think that the original Liberty fabrics on lawn fabric is beyond my budget. Thank you for asking.
I really enjoyed listening to Doug talk about all the different aspects of quilting. I remember trying so hard to have everything 'perfect ' & Also not feeling like I could say I am a 'quilter' because I could not quilt my quilt & paid to have it done. I even bought a quilting machine and frame. I learned that I didn't enjoy the 'quilting' process. I now enjoy piecing my tops & send out for the quilting. I have been able to complete many projects once I freed myself from having to quilt my own quilts. I started quilting early '90s... Happy Stitchin
YES! keep moving on. Don't get stuck in one place. I need change. I do like dense quilting. You can wash in a machine and it come out the way it went in.
I enjoy these designer spotlights and this one with Doug was wonderful. I liked hearing how he got started in the quilting world and his perspective on creating. I have the 3Tabletsstic books and look forward to #4.
Another great show, thanks. I really love the chatsworthy quilt and wonder the level of difficulty to make it? The fabric line it is made in is beautiful and Dougs pattern is superb. Would be great for a man.
I'll be the first to admit that Doug is one of the best pattern designers out there, but I also hope everyone doesn't run out and purchase a serger. All you need to pre-wash is to zig-zag down the cut sides. Easy Peasy and less expensive. :)
I really enjoyed listening to Doug and seeing lots of his designs. Thank you Kimberly and FQS for doing these designer spotlight videos. I’m from the UK and love that Doug uses places that I know to name his quilts, Chatsworth holds so many special memories for me from my childhood visiting with my grandparents and playing in the grounds, it’s definitely a quilt I will have to make!
Doug, thank you for mentioning the importance of how pressing matters. Pressing open at times is so important, for example on an eight-pointed star. If they are not pressed open, it is impossible for the longarm hopping foot to go over that.
Wonderful video with Doug Leko. He’s a very talented man! Kimberly has great interview skills, Would Kimberly please share the Juki machine she purchased? The sewing machine noise level at my home is not appreciated either! I’d love to a look at a quieter machine.
Great interview and discussion! Loved it 💖
Very creative! Love all his designs. Will look for his books! ❤. He was meant to be a designer! You asked great questions
A very good show. Thank you for all the information love to watch Doug

Love Doug Leko!! Favorite designer and interesting talented interviewer!
Yes, please do a sew along with a Tabletastic sampler. That would be so fun.
I like his take on the binding and corner. Small things to learn! Thank you, Doug.❤
Listening to these people and what they do is interesting.
I love this quilt. I will do this. Please let me know.
I love when you interview quilters or designers. Please more of them with trunk shows.
Love me some Doug Leko!! Very knowledgeable… I think I will have to try the serger trick the next time I wash my fabric! 😊🧵
That quilt behind him is stunning!
I really enjoyed this video. Thank you.

Love the idea of a sampler with Doug. I have his table tasting books and have not made anything yet out of them.
Really enjoyed this livestream with Doug Leko. I’m pretty new to quilting and it’s good to see the person behind the name I have heard.
Great interview. Have followed Dougs patterns for a long time. Very enjoyable.
Thanks for featuring Doug Leko. He is a great pattern designer ❤️. And nothing has improved my quilting more than It's So Emma triangle paper and Doug's folder corner ruler 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I always surge my raw edges BEFORE washing!!
Thank you. Enjoyed this very much. I learned a lot. Such a personable young man! Hope you have him back again in the future.
I love all of those table runners he showed! ❤❤
What a amazing Guy , Thank You!!!!!
Omg it’s quilt boy. I love Doug. Please have him on more.
I first had a chance to finish watching this video and I absolutely loved it!
Fantastic interview. Thank you
Awesome show! Loved the interview and samples shown!
Specialty Rulers and new techniques have made quilting so much easier than when I started 25 years ago.
I have made a lot of his quilts! Love the way his patterns are done. Met him at quilt con, and he was so nice.
I really enjoyed this - thank you - I wasn't aware of Doug until today, and as I live in the UK, would be difficult to get the books - but now I can get them on PDF!! Thank you so much x

Couldn’t watch you live but loved watching as always!!!
What a great show! Throughly enjoyed his designs! Never heard of him before!!
Light him up Kimberly!
Kimberly, you were just talking about washing Fabric that shrunk, since I was a clothing line before quilting. So I always prewash.
I always enjoy Doug Leko! I have all his Tabletastic books.
I hope I’m not too late to comment on the Liberty fabrics. I really like them and I’m so glad you’ve been carrying them, however I do think that the original Liberty fabrics on lawn fabric is beyond my budget. Thank you for asking.
FQS...lovely video...thanks...best wishes ❤❤

Hello from Mississippi :) BEAUTIFUL blocks & fabric Doug your great!

Thank you! Lots of great information. It’s so interesting that he started so young and all the different aspects of quilting he has been involved in.
I was so inspired by this interview and creative ideas that were shared by Doug. Thank you to both of you.
I wish Doug was on You Tube!
I loooooove Tabletastic. I have all three and have made so many of them!! ❤
Love listening to Doug! Thank you
Another great show, thanks. I really love the chatsworthy quilt and wonder the level of difficulty to make it? The fabric line it is made in is beautiful and Dougs pattern is superb. Would be great for a man.
I’d say difficulty level would be intermediate.

I recently used Doug’s smaller ruler, loved it so much in just purchased his larger ruler!
Got to meet Doug at Quiltcon 2024, very nice young man.
I loved this interview!
Interesting trunk show. Not familiar with Antler Quilt designs but some very cool designs. Good to hear you carry his books. Thank you!
Thanks!
Thank you very much!
How lovely to see these quilts and patterns.thankyou
Wonderful video with Doug Leko. He’s a very talented man! Kimberly has great interview skills, Would Kimberly please share the Juki machine she purchased? The sewing machine noise level at my home is not appreciated either! I’d love to a look at a quieter machine.
