I, for one, am glad that Jenny and her family came along and is living their unexpected dream. Her tutes are easy to understand and the magazine BLOCK gives me something in print to follow as well. I have ordered several things from MSQC and have absolutely no problem.....even my in package invoice is signed by one of the employees. I love the stories that are shared.

A product that I really love are the templates designed by Natalie (MSQC). The acrylic they use is yellow and they look like the edges are lit up.

I am not obsessed but have watched many of the tutorials and was fortunate enough to attend one of her classes. She won't be doing many more classes in far away places after she fulfills her obligations already booked. She and her family want her to stay at the shop and greet visitors. She was a very good teacher and it was a fun class. I think her company is a nice reputable one although they tend to focus more on pre-cuts. The videos are a good place for beginning quilters.

Me too. I just watched those two videos. I love her videos and am considering ordering her magazine. I have learned so much from Jenny. I am a self-taught quilter and don't know what I would do without her. I have ordered her crazy quilt templates and received them quickly. Still, the only things I am obsessive about are my husband, sons, grandchildren, great grandchildren and my 90 year od mother.

I grew up and lived most of my life in rural Missouri, so I've seen and experienced the economic crises in small-town life for many years. I enjoy the tutorials and the personality-rich website, but mostly I am thankful for the turnaround in the small town of Hamilton due to the popularity of the MSQC.

Yes it's a wonderful website. They are wonderful to share so much quilting knowledge with us. I would encourage everyone to support the store.

Saw Jenny in person (hubby too) in Naples. She is a happy person and so willing to share knowledge of her quilting techniques. If you get a chance to see her you won't be disappointed. Company is great for supplies and if you email them a question you will receive a personal reply not a programmed message. Always have had great personal service from company with no complaints on my part. Jenny does suggest you use and support your local quilt shop first! I could not find cancer fabric locally and found some on their site. Great tutorials.

I am a new quilter but I learned to quilt watching MSQ on you tube, I also subscribe to her magazine. I buy from her regularly and they have the best customer service. Jenny and her staff are excellent teachers on you tube.

I loved the bordered squares she has on youtube. I decided to make that pattern, but not using the layer cakes. I cut a different size and used only 3 different fabrics. It is so fun to put together. It's a nice 9 patch and since I needed a larger quilt for my DD#2 the increased size is working out great. I will add a couple of outside borders still to increase it more. Then planning to hand quilt it. Jenny and Eleanor Burns are two of my favs to watch.

I was a BAAAADDD girl this morning!!! Couldn't sleep and at 1 am when I got their DD email, I already had a cart full of goodies and hit the submit button :D Order is already showing as "Printed" and hopefully it'll ship soon! I love their Daily Deals, especially when they offer free shipping and bonus Quilter's Cash! Just couldn't help myself!!
