    I love the normal YouTube channel and subscribed to the new one the first time it was mentioned on FB. I have used a couple of tutorials on (the main channel) youtube and posted @ hashtagged you on Instagram. Thanks for replying & liking!!

    (Also, this is probably not the place, but you have a yellow subscribe banner that is on this webpage without a way to x it out that makes it really hard to read the page or do the rafflecopter on my phone, which I must do while travelling. Something to think about. Thanks )

Thanks for the chance!

  • Kathy

    I really enjoy when you do your block by block quilt. Time for a new one??? Great videos…Congrats on your new endeavor with MSQ.

    • Badriya

      Hi,

      If you could make a video on what we can and can’t do with the MSQC and your patterns and designs that would be swell. Like, can we sell items we made using the tutorials on sites like Etsy or our own website, or is it for personal use only?

      Thanks,

      Badriya

  • Michelle

    I would like to see quilt tutorials using different precuts from the same color ways. I’ve purchase from MSQC quite a few time and have lots of precuts I love but, no patterns to use these precut layer cakes, charms, and jelly rolls in the same quilt. Thanks

  • Nancy Makela

    Congrats on the new channel, its about time you got noticed. Loved the head band project, have already made one.

  • Mardi

    Would love a tutorial on binding a quilt totally by machine. Or if not that, then hand sewing the binding on the back, specifically showing corners.

  • Sharon

    I’m really excited to see what you and Jenny will be doing!

    Perhaps you could do a tutorial about working with different types of fabrics and which needles, threads, stitch lengths, etc. would work the best for that type of fabric.

  • Kim Turner

    I would love to see a tutorial for maybe Free Motion Quilting, but not on a long arm if that makes sense…

  • Lisa Cowell

    Well, since I have watched ALL of both yours and Jenny’s youtube tutorials, I would love to see just about anything you teach. I do just about every craft available, but right now am concentrating on quilting and CP soap. I have also done a lot of research on spinning and weaving, and would like to see your take on those things, but since you have never done either of those, perhaps they are not something you really like. Maybe some free-motion tutorials for a domestic machine?

  • Tracy

    Thanks for hosting the giveaway! I would love to see more small hand bags or totes. I love small purse type bags but can never find the right one.

  • Pam s

    I would love to see a tutorial on basting a large quilt. Thanks for the fun! I have seen many of your videos, and I love your teaching style!

  • Jackie Papallo

      I’d like to see fabric storage & care tips. Also more batik quilts with hand quilting would be fabulous.

  • Janet in ND

    I’d like to see tutorials showing how to do the Big Stitch popular in quilting. Any projects that can be done in less than an hour that are useful and can be given as gifts would be great, too. Thanks for offering this giveaway.

  • Ann

    Congrats, Vanessa! I’m sharing the new channel everywhere I can think of!
    As for a tutorial; I would love to see a crocheting tutorial, basics, and maybe knitting.
    Have fun on this new adventure- I can’t wait to join in on the ride! 🙂

  • Joni Sommerer

    I love anything that’s easy enough to share with my 10-year-old niece who is learning to sew. The reversible headband is PERFECT. 🙂

  • Pam

    I love your fabric items that are useful, such as the headbands, boxes, tote bags, etc. I love to quilt, but I would much rather sit down at my sewing machine and make an item in an hour or two and have it finished and ready to use. More items like that, especially for kids, would be great.

  • Michelle

    Id like to see some tutorials about sizes and best fabrics to use to create quilts for hopsitals. Lap Quilts, Baby quilts for preemies, and for those that passed. While I do have my own idea, its always good to see another idea.

    And my son would love to watch and have me make a Minecraft quilt

  • Brenda D

    i am self taught with the sewing machine and a beginner. So I am always looking for simple and short projects. I also work on making gifts and costume related things. Like belts and customizing clothes. Thanks.

    Besides nice big comfy quilts I think maybe some small things that would be fast for gift giving

  • April K

    Love all your tutorials, would love to see more tutorials on things to make for my kids. 🙂

  • Lela

    I love to watch all tutorials – you never know when a specific technique or design will come in handy! Right now I have lots of people asking me for ideas for weddings and gifts. I would also love to see more ideas of fun but useful crafts for around the house, and maybe some ideas for unique apparel and accessories.

  • Darlene Jacolik

    Just learned about your videos. I’m trying to get a head start on holiday gifts, so I.m looking for quick gift tutorials.

    There are a TON of products that I’d love to see you try out. Fabric paints and printable iron-ons etc. It would be fun to see you work with them from the beginning. Not just after you figure it all out, but from opening the package – so we can get an idea of how successful and accessible different items are.

  • Dawna Morrell

    I hope a new quilter/crafter wins this giveaway! It is an awesome one to start out with! Thanks for sharing!

  • Melissa

    I’d love to see a tut on the fabric baskets I’ve seen posted. I’d love to make some for organization for homeschooling since we’ve recently drastically downsized.
    I’d also like some general beginner sewing tuts–like hemming or working with different fabrics. Thanks so much Vanessa!!

  • Brooke

    Congratulations!

    I have recently begun learning leathercraft, so any tutorials along those lines would be awesome! Especially if the leather us paired with fabric in a project.

    Can’t wait to see all the craftiness you have up your sleeve!

  • Michele

    As a fellow crafter I am always excited to see what others are creating. Your techniques are very similar to mine–straight to the point! Thank you for keeping it simple.

    I have seen other suggestions on here that I too want to do and see so I will copy theirs! I would like to see a car trash bag/container that is easy to clean! And fabric baskets are in the works for me so if you do a tut on that before I do mine-I will task away with you.

    P.S. Your little girl is ADORABLE and sassy!

  • Kelie

    Kids p.j.’s, I can make the sleep pants but am intimidated by an easy sleep top or long shirt nighty in cotton or jersey fabric.

  • Susan Weaver

    I would love to see a tutorial on how to pick out fabric at the fabric store. I am pretty new at quilting and I get so overwhelmed when I walk into a fabric store to try to pick things that work together, being organized before I go, etc. I love pre-cuts, but yardage is usually cheaper. Help!

  • becky moyer

    binding tutorials! I feel like that’s something I learned when I first was quilting and then never pursued further. would love different ways to connect the ends of the binding, ways to machine bind, anything to improve this part (which is not my favorite!) of quilting.

  • Marti Taylor

    Congratulations on the new channel! I love video tutorials, I can easily replay any part where I am having problems as many times as it takes for to grasp the concept. I would love to see a tutorial about how to use odd size scraps, like the pieces left from paper piecing or after fussy cutting. Thanks so much for the generous giveaway and good luck with the channel.

  • Jeseka (Jessica)

    Hi Vanessa!

    Thank you so much for the tutorial on inkjet-printing fabric at home a few years back. That was the first video in which I saw you and I still use the technique today! Freezer Paper, brilliant!

    I’d like to make some fabric diapers for my potty-training son from flannel bedsheets that are overstock in my home.

    I know that you are a budget-minded Mama as are most of us so if it is possible I’d be really grateful!

    Blessings on your new endeavor and thank you again for being the down-to-earth and energetic you.

    With my love,

    Jeseka from the Heart of the Columbia River Gorge, Oregon
