Happy Friday! It’s snowing here today. Thankfully there’s not much accumulation and we’re expecting temps in the 50’s starting tomorrow. The good news today is I’ve joined The Quilting Gallery’s Blog Hop Party. So that means a giveaway!
Here are the giveaway items, Utility Quilting by Carolyn Forster, a Grand Hotel by Jenean Morrison charm pack (these are 6”charms). Two skeins of DMC perle cotton. One of my pincushions made with lavender and a wash/dish cloth crocheted by me.
To enter the giveaway you just need to answer this question, Do you have a favorite quilt? (made by you or someone else)
This giveaway will end on March 15th. I will post and contact the winner on Saturday March 16th National Quilting Day!
I want to thank Michele for hosting this blog hop. Check out all of the giveaway’s HERE and good luck!

I love the classic snowball & 9-patch block mix for a secondary pattern - a go to for me.
I am a fan of string quilts. They can be so vibrant and playful.
Thanks for the chance.
I love scrappy quilts of all designs! I do, however, usually prefer "planned" scrappies that have at least one consistent theme throughout, whether it be color, block style or quilting.
I love the scrappy trip along I have everyone do. I will be starting one next month.
Thanks for hosting! What a fun package that would be to get in the mail!
My favorite quilt right now is the one I'm working on! After a good start and a rocky, not so good looking second step...lots of seam ripping...I'm back to where I like it!
My favorite quilt is my son's baby quilt, made by me. It's a scrappy blue and white log cabin that is at least a full size quilt. My son is 13, I have it stored in my closet, it's thread bare in spots, it was very loved. Someday when he's married I'll repair it and he can have it for his children. ;-> Toni Anne
Great giveaway package! I do have a favorite quilt, made for me by my grandmother before she passed. It is brightly colored, scrappy, and tied, and looks beautiful near on my sofa. I am doing my first giveaway - hop over and enter and maybe you will receive something nice as well :-)
For making quilts I love the string blocks and pinwheels/whirlygigs. At the moment my favorite quilt that i own is one I found at a thrift store for $4.00 (had to be a mistake). It is a vintage quilt, made with feedsacks and handquilted. The blocks are pieced in a fan design. It's in very good condition and lives on the back of our couch. Thanks for the opportunity to win! : )
My favourite quilt is the Old McDonald's Farm baby quilt I made last year.
So colourful and fun with all the animals.
What an amazing giveaway. The Utility Quilting book is on my Amazon wishlist.
I'd love to enter the draw please.
Thank you,
Margaret

A lovely give away. My favourite quilt is one I made out of Simply Color.
First off I want to tell you that your quilts and colors are beautiful. What a great question. I do have a favorite quilt. It is one I made a number of years ago that I kept for myself. I put stars in all the block corners. The back is lined in flannel for extra warmth. Thank you for the give-a-ways.
I have a favorite quilt-it hangs on my dining room wall. It was made by my husband's great-grandmother. It is made with old feedsacks and other vintage fabrics. I love the randomness of the colors, the pencilmarkings still visable and the use of every little piece. It reminds me everyday that beauty doesn't come just from perfection.
I have a quilt that I started a couple of years ago, made using a pattern from an Australian magazine. I love this pattern, and would love to have it quilted by a long arm quilter. That's my favorite. Thanks for the great giveaway!
I love, and my boys do to, the 2 quilts I made for them 9 years ago. I had no clue what I was doing (I actually finished the edges, no binding here, and then proceeded to quilt...told you I was clueless then) but they still want those quilts on their beds every summer.
I have only quilted 3 quilts so far. My favorite one is one I make my son. He is a civil war re-enactor. So I got reproduction fabrics and made a civil war reproduction quilt. I love how it all turned out. He gets a lot of questions on where they can get one like it. LOL Makes a newbie feel good.
My favorite quilt is always the one I am working on. Currently that is a paper pieced batik star jilt.
I like a pinwheel quilt my husband made me for my birthday last year. Thanks for the chance to win.
I have lots of favorite quilts that I have made- a dear friend has a quilt that is a bargello heart that would be right up at the top. It is a pattern called Melinda's Heart.
I also have a couple of quilts that I have not given away- a quilt I made my gran that is a watercolor iris and a maple leaf quilt that we enjoy every fall. It is hard to choose my favorites as I have made nearly 100 bed sized quilts.
Thanks for participating in the hop. Hope you are having a grand time.
Regards,
Anna
My Favorite Quilt Is One I Made With My First Quilt Bee Called Winters Aren't blue.
Excellent giveaway! I love the Pezzy quilt I made for my daughter and all the great inspiration out there on blogs! :)
What a lovely giveaway package! I treasure things that have been handmade by others. My favorite quilt is one that i am still working on. I'm handquilting a top made by my great grandmother. Because it is an antique, I thought I should hand quilt it. It's taking awhile!
I have a quilt hand-made by my grandmother, who passed away in 1983.
Thanks,
Peggy

My favorite quilt is whichever one is on my bed at the time, I guess my favorite right now is my Orca Bay Quilt, Bonnie Hunter's Pattern, made by me in 2012, Thank You!
My favourite quilt is an applique one made by my best friend. It is all hand stitched with birds and flowers and baskets. It is the first quilt I see at night before falling asleep and the first one when I awake in the morning.
I don't have a favourite quilt but my favourite type of quilt is where the colour tells the story.
My favorite quilt is the only quilt I ever made for MYSELF! It's a "Eureka" in red, green, and cream tone on tone fabrics. It took me forever but I love it.
I love Bottled Rainbows by Rachel at Stitched in Colour. Maureen Cracknell did an amazing version of it.
I love so many of the quilts I've made, from the Lover's Knot on my bed to the Prairie Paisley tossed 9 patch on the couch. It's so much fun, and so easy to love each one!
I have one quilt that my grandmother made and one that my mother made that are special to me. Wonderful giveaway. Thanks for sharing and for the opportunity on a great draw. bonnielarson58@gmail.com
I have different favorite quilts at different times of the year! We just got out our Spring things, and right now my favorite quilt is one made from the Bliss collection, it just makes me happy to look at it!
I think my favorite quilt is the one I am designing and just starting, every time. By the end I'm sick of it but in he beginning its still magic. And the one I just made my nephew. It came out still magic at the end. Thanks!

I can picture it in my mind and one day.....maybe....it will be on my bed..........
Though it might be my UFO shroud if I dont get a move on and make it! lol
I don't have a favorite quilt yet. I seem to really love the ones made with batiks, so maybe I'll do a Civil war quilt pattern in batiks and that will be my favorite.
I am a fan of vintage scrap quilts.
Tough question> i do think that it is the orange one I use every day. It is made from nine blocks I received in swaps and is backed with the best orange flannel from Australia with koala bears. A dear friend sent the backing fabric to me.
I love scrappy quilts. Thank you for the giveaway!
Growing up, we used quilts on our beds that were made by my great-grandmother. They went in the washer when dirty, were used to make forts, etc. Mine was a Dresden plate and I can remember looking at all of the different fabrics. I wish it had survived all those years of everyday use! Many thanks!

I don't know if I have a favorite quilt but feel blessed that I have two quilts made by my great grandmother. Thanks for participating in the Quilters' Blog Hop Party.
My grandma made a quilt for my daughter, it is gorgeous.
Hi, I like and make scrap quilts. My first quilt was a scrap lap quilt made it for me but I think the dog has taken it as hers.
my favorite quilt is an antique crazy quilt made of velvet. My grandma made it years ago. It is too fragile to use anymoree.
My favorite quilt is a Mother Goose quilt made for my first grandson when I was off work following surgery. The blocks are all hand appliqued--different nursery rhymes surrounding Mother Goose flying on her goose--Jack and Jill, Little Bo Peep, Jack Be Nimble, Little Miss Muffet, Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary, Mary Had a Little Lamb--I'm sure I've forgotten some but you get the idea.
my work boss made an amazing quilt bordered in black with batiks - moose & aurora. absolutely beautiful!
I have 2 favourites both made by the same quilter. One of my mothers oldest friends who lived across the road when my mum had me 30 years ago (she had a daughter the same year). She made a beautiful quilt as a wedding/engagement gift for me and my husband which has pride of place on our bed. She also made a beautiful quilt for my mothers 50th birthday which has pride of place on the brass 4 poster bed I inherited from my grandmother which is in "my room" at home.
My mom has one on display that her grandmother made. I love the handstitched hexies.
My grandma used to have a jean quilt on the bed I used when I went to visit, but it has disappeared I hope to re-create it sometime.
I don't have a favorite quilt, ther are too many pretty ones and I like them all. I would love to own a grandmothers flower garden, but I'll never make one myself unless it is very tiny. too many pieces.
My favourite quilts are basket quilts. I've loved the design for years, and have yet to do one!

My favorite quilt,was just given to me, by my daughter...for my Birthday...she gave it early (almost a month early... she couldn't wait! lol)It's a Raggedy Quilt...in Flannel!! Cozy!!!
Love the vibrant colors in your quilts! My favorite quilt is done in tropical colors, it's a simple 9-patch but it has aged to be so very soft and even though it has holes in it now I can't get rid of it just yet.

My favorite quilt is one that I recently bought at an antique show - a simple little 9-patch with faded blues......
My favorite quilt is Magic Tiles - I made it years ago for my daughter.
I really love the quilts I've made for my Grand babies.They both use them. My daughter understands that if she is given a quilt made by me I will have hurt feelings if they are not used. I promised to take them back if I find they don't use them.
My favorite quilt was given to me by my Mémé (great-grandmother) when I was born in 1971. I still have it in my studio to this day and it inspired a class that I now teach called Crazy Quilted Baby Blanket.
