There are over 400 comments so far. I've not read all of them. I have a suggestion to save one step in cutting. Sew together the 2 strips that you're cutting into 2.5" squares. That way you won't lose any small squares (yes from personal experience). Once sewn together, keep strip closed and cut into 2.5" squares. Center is done. You can press sewn strip first before cutting to relax strip if you want. I've done this and it turned out fine.

One day I will visit The USA with an empty suitcase and come to se you and other quilt shops and go home with a full heart and suitcase. I love sewing big quilts. Love from Britt, Copenhagen Denmark

I'm 65 and just starting to quilt. I have been sewing since I was young but quilting is different. I love quilts

I have just taken delivery of my second order of Batiks jelly roll, and a length of batik fabric from Jordan fabric. It is absolutely beautiful, very colourful, good quality. Just trying to decide on a pattern. The delivery arrived 1 week earlier than quoted. Very prompt service, very good quality. Will definitely order again soon 😊

Outstanding!!! Your pressing hints are second to none Donna! Thank you for helping us all learn better techniques! All of your hints are timeless.

Donna, you always make it look so easy. Has anyone ever told you, You are Smooth! 😊

Back in the ‘70’s Eleanor Burns started a whole movement with her Log Cabin quilt and ripping strips into 2 1/2 inch strips. With the Jelly Rolls this is already done for you and you have very little waste. Made at least 5 of these quilts in the ‘70’s.

We have a lot to thank those early quilters for. They are the reason quilting is enjoying a revival. I started my quilt journey in the late 80's and still going strong.

How beautiful. I am 85 years old- love, love quilts. Always said I wanted to make one before I died, but not likely. All of you dedicated quilters are just Amazing. Love watching you.

Shirley Sarradet Hi Shirley, your post touched me, so I just had to message you. I am a member of a quilting group and we have quite a few ladies over 80 years young who have a wealth of knowledge to pass to us youngsters (70 years plus) ha ha. Of course we cannot meet at the moment and don’t think we will see each other again this year but hopefully things will get better soon.😊

Certainly you can. There are numerous super simple 2 and 3 color quilt patterns you can make in 1 to 2 days. They look difficult but are not. Google Donna Jordan, quilting. I could teach you by phone in 10 minutes. GOD bless.

My mom is 101 yrs old. Until her mid 90s she sewed daily. Her later contributions were charity quilts, lap quilts for nursing homes or baby quilts for missions. I hope to carry on her legacy.

That’s the FIRST time a Log Cabin made sense to me! Thanks, Donna!

It was really helpful to show the chain piecing of block 1, then add block 2, etc. I love log cabin blocks but they take me forever because I do them one at a time. I will chain piece them from now on. Thanks!

Ви-майстер своєї справи!Дякую за цікаві ідеї!

This was my first "bed sized" quilt, and watching this video and your other videos makes quilting look like fun, not tedious. You are an inspiration. Thank you.

Want to Thank you for all your great knowledge and videos. I have learned so much from you. I’m 65 years old and just started making quilts but have also sewn. The couple I have made so far have turned out great.

Donna, I would like the jelly roll you used in the log cabin in this video. The batik one I should say!!

I want to thank you for all the fun I have had catching up with your super videos. You are an excellent instructor. It is great that people are still getting so much use from a video you posted almost three years ago. Archiving greatness!! I have also been loving every single fabric and pre-cut that I bought online from your fabulous store. Thanks so much.

I love the way you sew and explain the things you do. Fast becoming my go to videos to make sure I am doing things the way you do them. Thank you.

I love watching your videos! So straightforward and clear! Thank you, Donna. The Log Cabin remains my favorite pattern, after all these years. Great instruction on using a jelly roll to do a Log Cabin Quilt!

I really enjoyed this tutorial as I’ve been wanting to try a Log Cabin quilt for a while now. Sometimes my brain does not compute with directions but with you and your video I was able to “get it”. You are good! Thank you so much! I am going to start my Log Cabin tomorrow. I am so excited!

You are an AWESOME teacher!!!! I love how you show us how to think ahead so that we can anticipate what will happen if we do x, y, or z. Thank you!!!!

You never disappoint me, you took a classic log cabin and simplified it even more. Thank you for the inspiration.

I love the way you sew it has helped me a lot ,I like your kits ,an you are lovely couple.god bless xx from Australia.

I love watching you sew Donna, you’re such a peaceful person and a delight. I like the way you make the fun assembly line approach that makes the cutting and sewing a quilt so quick. Thank you so much

I bought my fabric in Tulsa February 2020. My husband and I visited USA. I watched Marks tutorials. And this is the resultat. Jeanette, Sandefjord, Norway

Log Cabin quilts are so timeless! So beautiful in its simplicity. Also easy and fun to make!

Great video, as usual. You're a wonderful teacher, and your fabrics and kits are the best! Hugs!

Thank you for hopefully an easier way to do this beautiful block. I had a hard time with it the last time I did it. Gives me confidence to try it again! 🌟

i love the modern fabrics on your website and the way your fabrics bring these old block to life and make them contemporary instead of vintage.

WOW! I have made several log cabin quilts and I thought I had streamlined the process, but you made it sooooo easy from cutting to sewing to ironing. I have never used a jelly roll set, always cut individual pieces, but I will definitely be trying this. thank you so much. your quilts are so beautiful.

Amazing how just changing the layout can effect the look of the quilt. Thanks again for your videos.

Amazing teacher you are! I’m inspired as I love this pattern. My grandma made the wedding ring pattern, and my sister used it until it fell apart, 30 years later. She wasn’t as kind as she should have been to it. But it lives in my memory! Handmade art is a precious part of my history and I continue to create

Thank you for demonstrating all these quilt patterns. I love watching them and I have learned so much! Quilting is such a joy!

Thank you for making the Log Cabin so easy to follow. It’s a favorite

Yay! Have lots of jelly roll strips so this is perfect! The sheet with the measurements will be so useful, thank you so much. Love your tutorials x

Donna I really enjoy watching your tutorials because you explain how to collect the colors you’re gonna put in a quilt very informative!

I have to admit for a larger store I’d say you are like compared to some other videos and shops I’ve seen I have to admit I’m very impressed ! You didn’t have tons of tools to press buyers to buy ! I’m sorry but it’s true ! Don’t get me wrong ! I’ve just started and wanting to make quilts but there are so many out here today amd for the average person we can’t allways afford the extra tools needed ! I get so frustrated cause it seems they inspire you to buy the fabrics and tools which is fine but it’s just it seems to complex but you made this very easy to understand and anyone who hasn’t every size of square and special tools ! Which I’m dieing for the creative grids tools I’s what over time I’d like to get ! But ty so much I really mean this ! Buying the fabrics along with a machine can add up ! I was talked into buying two machines and but promised lessons and they set them back so far and then they rush ya abs there more worried about the buyers coming in to buy more ! It honestly hurts your feelings cause you pay a decent amount for these machines and then it seems your just tossed out on your own ! Unless you have $ for classes but we can’t all afford classes and I see videos agsin but they seem so complex and they teach by buying all of these tools ! One day I’d live to buy a log cabin tool don’t get me worng but I’d like to learn some small projects to make cause I can’t afford to waist any fabrics ya know I’ve been trying to build a stash ! I regret now I was interested in making clothes and now I wished all that time and $ was spent on solely quilt fabrics ! Let face it I’ve heard nothing but designer fabrics will sew up to look right ! Anyways sorry for the large comment but this is truly the first I’ve seen without even links to buy a list of items who can afford in one shot ! It just seems like they Inspire you but your pushed to pay for classes and some of us aren’t in a position to be able to so ty so much ! I may very much try to make this pattern ! Quilt ! God bless and stay safe amd likes and suscribed as well honey

I love how fast this quilt is made. I think it would make a great "guy" quilt with some rich darker tones. Thanks for sharing. You always make it look so easy.

Love your take on the log cabin. So easy to understand even for a beginner. Using a jelly roll is an extra bonus. Thanks for sharing and greetings from England

I enjoyed watching Donna’s demonstration on how to make all the different quilts. Love it . I have been telling my friends about her. I love her templates for the double wedding ring quilt I ended up ordering the templates. Thanks.

Love your videos! You have such a natural flare for teaching. Your style is friendly, helpful and informative but (thankfully) without a lot of excess chat that doesn't add to the tutorial. Great job and great videos!

Thank you for making the cutting and sewing very simple on your log cabin tutorial. The same for the ironing. Well organised way to made it accurite. Thank you so much.

I love all your tutorials. They are so helpful. You explain things so well and I love your block sewing demonstrations. You explain every step so well. I am indebted to you forever. You have given this first time quilter so much confidence. Brenda from N Texas.

Another great video! Your videos have helped me to be a better quilter because you've made me much more conscious of accuracy in cutting, sewing, and ironing. There's always more to learn, and Donna, you are a great teacher!

Ok this is my ambition to make the fun scrappy log cabin. Donna thank you for your passion and inspiration. Through your experience and expertise you share a fabulous process to get those blocks accurate and tidy. But also beautiful. Excellent teaching. I am now a patchwork Fan....🤩💯

EXACTLY what I was looking for ! I have a BUNCH of jelly rolls and I LOVE log cabin quilts ! Thank you so much ! I printed it off and it’s in the line of quilts to make for me ! Thank you for ALL you do !

I bought a jelly roll in June and have just plucked up the courage to cut it up to make the log cabin squares. So far, so good- the ironing technique is great and I’m now ready to sew them together. Looking good, and love all of your tutorials. Please keep up the good work. A huge fan in Wales🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 x

One of my favourite patterns is the log cabin! 😊👍I would like to see you make a double wedding ring quilt and a labyrinth quilt in the future 😊

You are awesome Donna!!! I really adore you and the way you explain is so very nice and motivational...... I enjoy watching your videos and they are so satisfying...... Thanks a ton!! God bless you always dear......

Donna, when I was making my log cabin table runner and placemats I used your method of sewing each step all at one time then go back and add the next piece. It sure works well and seems much faster than completing each block one at a time. Thank you for all your little hints, they sure help.

I just love this block and the Scrappy look you chose. And you just made me loose the fear of trying it. I can't wait to try it with my scrap box . Thank you for all you teach us. Amazing explanation job.

Was looking for a nice pattern for my niece who wanted a specific colour wave. All I had was a jelly roll in those colours and this pattern looked perfect. You are a great teacher and always give really good direction and tips. Thank you so much for helping this novice.

Thank you once again Donna. You are an excellant quilter and teacher. And awesome with colors ...You are number one in my book.

I love the scrappy look…can’t wait to try-I have only done the “planned” version; and I think I will enjoy using a jelly roll for a change up

Love the scrappy look. Thank you Donna for another great video

What a beautiful quilt! Thank you for your easy following along directions. You and your husband make great videos. Keep up the great work!

Hai Donna...today I got to watch your log cabin quilt....your tutorial was easy to understand...tk u.

love your tutorials how to cut ! and how to sew !

Hi from France. I just love your last vidéo. I used to make my patchwork by hand. But your videos are so clear that I decided to try with my sewing machine. That's great. Thanks very much.

Greetings from Argentina Donna and Matt. I just discovered your tutorials. Let me repeat the words of Beth Koch: "I love your accuracy in cutting, sewing, and iroing". Thanks you for sharing.

I used to think log cabin blocks were the hardest to make but not after watching your tutorial on u tube. Thanks a million. Gail

Hello Donna, I had just picked up my phone to look for some variations in the Log Cabin Quilts. I could not believe my first view was these log cabin designs. I simply love the newer version. I gotta do one like this. BTY, I am just starting to quilt, but I am a crafter of all types of crafts and I made garment when I was a LOT younger, so I have no fear that I can't do these. I enjoy all your videos so much. Keep on keeping on,,, God Bless.

I’ve always loved this quilt design but was under the impression it was hard to make. Having watched your tutorial, you’ve inspired to add this to my to make list. Thank you.

I love the scrappy quilt the best. The colors in both of the quilts are stunning and nice bright not your usual browns, and darker colors that you tend to use make more of this kind of quilts nice patterns and bright colors. xoxo : ]

Amiga .te felicito ..Hermoso Bargello .me fascina esta técnica ..te veo desde Colombia ....bellos trabajos ..muchas gracias x compartir tus conocimientos .

This method is absolutely brilliant. I cut and pieced 12 blocks in ONE afternoon and had enough left to make at least one more block for a cushion front. I totally recommend this especially for beginners but also for practicing accurate seam allowances.😍😍😍🤗 Thank you so much.

Love that you simplified the cutting....makes the whole project go quickly. Thank you.

you're videos are giving me so much confidence to make more and do more!!! i'm soooo glad i found you!!

I just recently found your channel. Your tutorials are very easy to follow! Thank you so much for sharing everything with quilters all over the world. 👍🏼👍🏼👏👏

Wow you make it look so easy and fun!! I love the brightness of that quilt ❤️❤️👌🏽

Personal experience. I always press no steam first time around. Set my seams. Especially in log cabin. It makes a world of difference and seams match up much nicer. It's an extra step, but well worth it!

Thankyou for the straight forward instructions. Easy to follow. I will make this quilt for my granddaughter with the modern looking fabrics.

Great tutorial and I love the tip on how you chain piece the blocks- so much faster and easier than me adding all centers to a strip, cutting them apart, and sewing those onto another strip, and so on. I just subscribed to your channel and I look forward to more great stuff!! Now, off to the sewing room....

Thank you Donna! 💙 Such a great tutorial with all the tips and details that I was looking for!! Love the quilts!!

Beautiful work on log cabin blocks. I just love that backing material.

Thank you!! The detail in explaining how to make the blocks from start to finish is amazing! You do a awesome job teaching the technique of quilting! Thank you

I just saw this today. There’s my old sewing machine! It clamped to the table and the wheel turned by hand! (It might have not originally had a clamp.) Thank you for your tutorials! I’m so happy you’re approaching 50K !!

Love the layout of the first quilt and how it came out in those fabrics.

I’ve been searching for a pattern to use for the jelly roll I purchased. I think I’m going to do this one. My first pieced quilt, wish me luck! Thank you for the tutorial and the cutting download, Donna.
