I made 3 Christmas quilts from your patterns…Evergreen, Byzantine Door (with red cardinals) and Happy Go Lucky (with red trucks and pinwheels.) 2 were gifts, 1 was for our family. I love all your patterns; I’ve made 12 so far. Thanks for another great show, Fran!!!
Thank you so much Fran! Your explanations why you use certain fabrics and how the designs and colors work within the patterns really helps guide me on how to make my own fabric selections.
Thank you Fran for my beautiful kit! I absolutely love it and can’t wait to make the quilt. I think I will make it for my sister since she gave me the fabric I sent in. I love this series and have learned a lot from you. Thank you again so much. 💕
Hi Fran, love the matchmaker series and this was a great video. Your colour choices are so on point. As a "colour coordinated challenged" person I love when you show how the quilt will turn out 🤗❤️
those are some lovely kits, I've made 2, 3 yard quilts for gifts so far this year, one for my daughter in law, she requested a Christmas throw for her chair and one for my grand daughter for her to snuggle with. she was living with her other grandparents in California and is now in Florida with her mom and dad. I hadn't made her a quilt but I have now, lol. I love how easy it is to do any and all of these quilts, 3 fabrics, one afternoon and I have a quilt top finished.
Recently made 3 sets of flannel Snoopy pillowcases for a friend of mine. I changed the band and flange colors but the main part of the pillowcases was the same. Now I am attempting some dog one pillows. I have a plethora of WIPs to get done so I am hoping to do those throughout 2022. I have a piece of material I would like you to match, but I haven't been able to find it. I love the matches you do. Love the show.
What a great series! And it's so much fun to see what you put together. I've gotten several of your books and I believe some of my vintage fabrics will work well in the larger blocks.
The first viewer fabric was beautiful but I didn’t think it would look good with the fabrics and pattern chosen by Fran. I couldn’t have been more wrong! The quilt is going to be gorgeous!! I love it!
Love the matchmaker series. Again, the kits are beautiful! Been busy making baby themed quilts. Been itching to do Christmas quilts purchased from Fabric Cafe!
Hi Fran, this is the first video I’ve watched in this series. I love it!! Your explanations on how you choose coordinating fabrics is very helpful as I often get caught up in second guessing myself. The Fabric Cafe’s three yard quilts are perfect for folks like me! Thank you!!
Hi Sandy! Thanks for watching and so glad you enjoyed it! The previous videos in the series are similar so you might find something to inspire there as well! 💜
I really like this show, i truly enjoy that you show what the quilt will look like with your fabric. I need a pattern for a football theme material Tennessee Orange and white would love to. Are my son this for Christmas if you can help
I LOVE what you did with the camo fabric! I make many quilts for donation and some are for nursing homes. This pattern will work great! Thank you for sharing all the beautiful fabrics and patterns with us! Still would like a pattern with making a quilt or table runner that is on point. I am intimidated with trying one for some reason. I know y’all could design something that would help me try it.
I have 10 of the books and I have made 17 quilts so far I have three left to do most of them are at least twins I think there's only one or two that's a little smaller and I know there's two that are much bigger I may have to submit a piece I have I've had it for quite a while it's a Christmas piece and I can't find two colors that I like with it
Fran, can you tell me what the difference is between the Illusions pattern in Modern Views with 3-yard quilts and Allure pattern in Magic of 3-yard quilts?
Hi Laura, The blocks in Illusions are smaller finished blocks. Each block is identically constructed, but colors are alternating to utilize all three colors to product three different blocks. Allure had larger blocks and each block is constructed differently, creating two blocks which are not identical. Hope that helps.
I really appreciate how thoughtful you are in making these matches.
Wow with camouflage fabric. I love it.
Never thought about using camouflage fabric in a quilt. The men in my family all hunt. I see quilts for them next Christmas
It can be done! I'm sure they'll appreciate them.
I love all the ideas for the fabrics but that camo was a perfect mix. Who knew camo could look so good in a quilt!!
You have AMAZING VIDEOS!!!!! Wow!!!! Gorgeous quilts!!!
Thank you so much, Sybil! 💜💜💜
As usual, beautiful fabrics and patterns. I really enjoy this series.

That's so great to hear, Sue! It's why we do what we do! 😊
You really made three perfect matches even though the fabrics were so different! I love watching the matchmaker shows.
Thank you Fran for my beautiful kit! I absolutely love it and can’t wait to make the quilt. I think I will make it for my sister since she gave me the fabric I sent in. I love this series and have learned a lot from you. Thank you again so much. 💕
I am so happy you like it! I enjoyed working with your fabric. Thanks so much for letting me be a part of planning a special gift. Fran
Great show and beautiful fabric 😊😊😊❤❤❤.
Thanks Paula!
Love the matches.
3 yard quilt, Big Picture for my son's Christmas gift 🎁 thx for the easy-to-use pattern!
They were all very beautiful !
Fran, you always do such a good job coordinating the fabrics!
Another great show! You do such a great job Fran, picking the fabrics and patterns!
Thank you for the inspiration, I've been trying to teach myself to color match and you do it so well. I can't wait to use your methods.
Binge watching you gals. Lovin' all the videos. Thanks 💙
Thank you Lisa! 💜 We're so glad you're enjoying the show 😊

I’m color coordinated challenged too!

I love the new book. I have three yards of fairy frost and found the perfect pattern in your Christmas book
Great show Fran, today. Good choices of fabric for submitters of fabric swatches.

Something like that is coming soon!
I am making dog bone pillows and want to finish my WIPs in 2023. Just correcting my last post. ☺️
I love how you are able to see the fabrics in the pattern. Is this some kind of software you use with photos of the fabric?
Hi Beth, yes we use a program called Electric Quilt 8 to generate digital versions of a quilt before they are made up.
I have 10 of the books and I have made 17 quilts so far I have three left to do most of them are at least twins I think there's only one or two that's a little smaller and I know there's two that are much bigger I may have to submit a piece I have I've had it for quite a while it's a Christmas piece and I can't find two colors that I like with it
Wow, way to go! Yes send it our way! Fran would love to help you out!
What is the program you use to show how the quilt well look thank you have all your books
Hi Margaret! The program is called Electric Quilt 8.
