Also a Donna Jordan fan. I also watch her nail polish. Sometimes it changes mid video. Her iron seems fab. Spendy I guess. I wonder if she really makes all those quilts from start to finish, or just does her part, shows the first block and then comes back when a minion does the rest and she lays them out. Still very enjoyable.

Yeah, I love the sounds of her cutting fabric !!!!!!! She's adorable.

I noticed that too, Alyce ( her polish changing). She must do segments, maybe?

Ok I had never watched one of Donna's videos, she is my new favorite with her purple Rowenta cordless iron. And the szhuuuzh sound that her rotary cutter makes on the cutting board is so satisfying. LOL.

She talked about her quilt making once. It takes her weeks for some quilts as she has several in different steps going. She doesn't do one at a time. This way she has segments of the video to be put together. Her son does the video recording and I doubt he is moving and setting up for each step of the quilt. They probably do all the video of cutting three or four quilt at one time, then her sewing, then her arranging, then the quilting.

Here’s crazy: I love the sound of Donna opening up the layer cake packages, although I have never bought one!
just to return to the subject: I love my little Steamfast iron!
