Last Sunday I visited the 'stoffenspektakel' (fabric spectacle) in Antwerp, Belgium because I wanted to learn to quilt. They had exactly two booths with dedicated quilting tools and one booth with precut quilting fabrics (no jelly rolls, layer cakes or anything - just 0,5m pieces). A lot of booths with all kinds of fabrics though. So I bought a bunch of cotton fabric and got started thanks to your wonderful instructional video's. I think if I visited your store I would go completely crazy. 😊
I heard the show was better than ever this year. I am looking forward to seeing you at Road to Ca. in January. I am a pressing fanatic and love your meticulous quilt tutorials and techniques.
Well done. I would like to have seen lots more quilts. It takes me at least 2 hrs to go through the Newport Quilt Show. I take a couple hundred pictures so I can study them when I get home and get my tired old, (77r old) legs up in my recliner!!
I have never seen so many beautiful quilts on display in anyone else’s booth. I am sure that you were quite successful in sales so congratulations on that, it is well deserved. I have been to the Kansas City show and to one in Tennessee but have never been to Houston. It will now be on my list so thanks for showing us how great it is. We are all looking forward to your next tutorial. I always enjoy them.
THAT was AMAZING! Thank you for showing us the Houston Quilt Festival. Eye candy EVERYWHERE!!! The Kaffe Fassett tutorial you did from the quilt at the show is my favorite quilt I've seen you do, but they're ALL stunning. I wish you could offer another kit to do that quilt. Thank you for all you do for us!
Yes yes, I have wanted to do a kaffe fasset quilt and I know you would be the perfect teacher. Thank you for sharing. I am going to try and make the Puyallup quilt show this week. I hope to be able to meet you.
I've decided to plan a trip to Houston next year. Talk about quilters' heaven! Thanks for your fun video, it was a little like being there, without all the walking.
Thank you for posting a video of your Houston Quilt Show experience. You did such a great job of showing a variety of what the show offers. And those quilts - absolutely beautiful. I'm looking forward to seeing your new inspirations!!
Wow, candy for the eyes with such beautiful fabrics and quilts! Bucket list trip definitely. 😊. No doubt others were equally in awe and star struck to meet you as well. Thanks for sharing.
It was lovely seeing the beautiful quilts and am looking forward to seeing the new tutorials. The mirror quilt reminds me of the Asian embroidery using mirrors as decoration. The other quilt pattern also looks fascinating and would make an interesting tutorial. On another note: I hope you enjoyed Felix Francis’s book. I have just read it and liked it very much. Over the years I have bought all the books his father, Dick Frances, wrote and now collect those written by Felix.
I enjoyed your tour of the quilt show so much, especially seeing Kaffe. I would have been standing there smiling from ear-to-ear! I also enjoy your tutorials and look forward to more in the future!
Wow. Wonderful quilts. I'm older and just starting to quilt. As a newbie, I'm still overwhelmed with it all. Thank you for showing us the array of quilts, and the art they become.
I would be star struck to meet you!! I am obsessed with watching your video tutorials! You give me so much inspiration in every aspect of quilting, from picking fabric, to making cutting enjoyable and piecing the quilt! Thank you so much for sharing your God given talent with all of us.
I never knew that Houston had an international quilt show. It is huge. Will have to save my money and fly their for the next one. Your quilts are equally beautiful. I love your show. Thx for sharing.
Would love to see a quilt show like this. Wonderful to see KaffeFawcett...hope I spelled it right...talk. I would find it fun to see a project with the mirrors.
I try to get to the Houston Quilt Festival every year. I so enjoyed your booth the year you were there. I know that your videos have inspired so many of us and that your business has grown much larger since I visited your booth. I tell the women in my guild about your videos and how awesome Matt's precuts are and how easy and beautiful the kits are. I know you are very busy, but I would love to visit a Jordan's Fabric booth again. Please consider another visit to the Houston Quilt Festival.
So thrilled to have met you in Houston. Thank you so much for your tutorials. I love that you make quilting approachable so that anyone, no matter their skill leve, can create something beautiful.
Oh my What beautiful Quilts but they are way above my level. I so enjoy all of your tutorials and you always make them doable. I watch you sew and you do it with such ease.. I so envy all those who can quilt such beautiful quilts.I look forward to all of your tutorials each week you are such a gifted quilter.
Looks like you had an amazing time at the Quilt Festival. HUGE & BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for the whole 'tour' and explanations of so many things I really wanted to know. The festival's on my bucket list!!! Wonderful video. THANKS Donna and to your cameraman! :)
Thank you for sharing......some day I'd like to go to Huston for the quilt festival.....what beautiful quilt there was....and so many to see......see you soon
Welcome home! Thanks for sharing the Houston show! Such wonderful, beautiful quilts and fabrics. But thanks even more for the time with Kaffe Fasset...looking forward to seeing, buying and trying some of his batiks...hoping you’ll carry some?
I, too, was at the Festival (first time...awesome). Anyway, thanks for creating this little video. You've captured a good bit of the soul of it all. Oh, and I did stop by your great-looking booth where I had the opportunity to say hello. Love your quilt kits and tutorials!
Your booth looked great! I can't believe that you made all those quilts in your booth and your store! You certainly have made a few table runners! Wow! Hope you sold out! xoxo from Arizona.
I thoroughly enjoyed your video about your triip to Houston. It was nice to see that Jordan fabrics had their own booth. I've always loved Kaffee Fassett fabrics. It was fascinating to learn that he's never cared for batiks. I'd love to know more about how to make that stunning quilt which you pointed out as a possible tutorial. I also liked the chopstick version.
Oh Donna, I think I'd go mad with such a huge show floor to visit! Thank you for video'ing a piece of your experience in Houston, and for posting it for us to see. Gorgeous quilts!!! ~Diana from Toronto
Enjoyed meeting you at my first Festival! You and your family are so adorable and helpful! I love your packaging! Look forward to seeing you again next year. And yes I would love a tutorial on that quilt. It's beautiful. Thank you!
Thanks for the Tour, it was fantastic. I’m also a KF fan, so great with talk about the batiks, which I first noticed in May this year. My excuse is, that I have two old dogs....perhaps in a three year I will come to visit you....Jordan Fabric in your store or at festival....For the moment your video/tutorials are my great moment....you are really good. Best love, Heidie from Denmark.
Thank you for showing us the Houston quilt show. I missed it this year. Next year I will have to stop by your booth and buy some fabric. I would love a tutorial on that quilt. You are a fabulous teacher. Thanks again.
Great video. I live in England so will probably never have the opportunity to go to an international quilt show. Yes, please another tutorial. Always easy to understand and awesome projects
Thanks so much for the tour, would be something to go but don't think I'll ever make it. I love seeing so many finished quilts as my weakness is choosing the right colours and your video gave me a reference library of sorts to check again..😀☘
Thank you very much Mme. Awesome! From where i am, we will never be able to visit such a place. You make me dream. You are very good teacher. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH.
Thanks Donna for the tour, it looked very grand and very exciting, I think one would have to plan on attending the quilt festival for a few days, it looks massive and probably causes sensory overload (of the best kind) Jess
OMG, your booth is AMAZING!!! You give me an incentive to come to Festival, although flying for me is VERY painful so i usually go to regional shows. But they never have huge quilt shows in the DC area, I guess cause so many quilters are in the Midwest and West? But there is SO MUCH to see and do here in Washington and it’s all FREE! And it is a gorgeous area to live in with great weather except in July and August (humidity).
Oh how I would love to go next year...some year... but I live in the far north of North Dakota. Thank you for a peek into the show. Love your tutorials!
Pensé que no habías asistido a la feria no habías subido ningun video que bueno muy bonito lo que mostraste bendiciones yo conozco Houston texas muy linda ciudad
So lovely to see thank you for sharing the quilt are amazing I love your quilt you show us to do I’ve been watching your video and look forward to seeing the next ones you come out with all the best Donna
Thanks so much for sharing a view of the Quilt Festival. I wish I could have been there. For me it would be a sensory overload and that is a good thing. I am hoping to go next year with my daughters.I hope I can make it down to Grants Pass and meet you sometime. I like the quilt you showed as a possible tutorial that would be great.
Thanks for sharing the Houston Festival! Glad you are vending and hope to see you in the Midwest some time! I have enjoyed your tutorials and learned some new techniques!
Wow, is correct. Some of those Quilts should be in a Museum, just pure artwork. Beautiful, stunning.
Thanks for taking us along. It was beautiful.

Stoffenspektakel sounds like a lot of fun!
Your booth is beautiful! So are you, thank you for all you share
I can see that you got revived there! Thanks for taking us with you!

The one with the mirrors ! So beautiful. Must be foundation pieced I’m thinking
The mirrors in the quilt around 8:45 remind me of common decor on Indian clothes!
Thank you, it is great when you are in Europe and cant make it. thank you again.

Yes! Show us your version of the quilt project! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💞
Thanks Donna for the tour, it looked very grand and very exciting, I think one would have to plan on attending the quilt festival for a few days, it looks massive and probably causes sensory overload (of the best kind) Jess
