Kathy S. said...

My favorite type of quilt is something that is chain pieced. I love to piece and piece and piece over and over again (something like a bunch of half square triangles, broken dishes, flying geese...) Thanks for the second chance to win. LOVE those layer cakses--so pretty!

Anonymous said...

I really like quilts that are simple and that I can finish. I need a pattern to be easy enough for me to understand. I did enjoy the Tossed Pinwheel 9 Patch that I made...from Clover & Violet's tutorial.

Thanks for a chance to win.

Lisa England said...

Lately I'm really loving scrappy quilts. They're a good way to use a lot of beautiful fabrics and they are so interesting to look at when they're done.

Sandy said...

Love the colors in those squares. Thanks for the opportunity to win!=)

Sunnybec said...

I like quilts that I can use pre-cuts with as cutting is not my favourite part. I like them to be traditional and the easier to piece the better!! I already follow you.

Gene Black said...

I love wildly scrappy quilts. I usually make them lap size so I can easily quilt them on my home machine.

Orange Crumpled Napkin said...

My favorite kind of quilt is usually the one I am working on at the moment. I prefer more complex patterns, applique. But when I try a new pattern, I totally immerse myself in that quilt, including the research of the history behind that block or who is most famous for that kind of look.

Quilt Genius said...

I really like the cathedral windows quilts, but I also enjy the really modern ones.

I am just getting into quilting, so I don't really have a favorite yet. But I really enjoyed doing a basic patchwork one for my husband.

Nancy said...

this is a great giveaway!

i like quilts with lots of "white space" in them... somewhere for the eye to rest. i especially love ones with bold prints, and then stark white as the contrast.

Alison V. said...

My favorite type of quilt is classic designs with a modern twist.

Barbara O. said...

I can only King Size... and I just can't get enough. Every time I plan a quilt I have to stop myself not to plan another king size...

Lindsay said...

I love pretty much any quilt made with HST. I love how versatile they are.

Carol Swift said...

Since I'm horrible about following patterns exactly, I'd have to say my favorite quilt is one that turns out okay after I "alter" it.

nela said...

i love to just play and add, often ending up with some kind of modern quilt in my hands

Tawny said...

I'm new to quilting, so I like something nice and simple like Log Cabin (which I just happen to be making right now).

Aimee said...

My favorite type of quilts are scraps quilts. Thanks for the great giveaway

brandi said...

i looooove a crazy quilt, any kind will do! my husband's 84 year old cousin makes them with added buttons and sequins and tassles and they are beautiful! the first traditional quilt i ever made was a crazy squares quilt and i love it.

Desi @ Wee Share said...

I like simple quilts-- ones that have a simple pattern or perhaps don't use too many fabrics-- maybe squares or perhaps some stripes.

Desi

Lynn said...

i love a log cabin design-thanks!

Jennie P. said...

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "type of quilt." It's a little vague, but maybe you are referring to size? If so, I'd say a full size quilt. If you mean modern or traditional I'm going to say modern. :) Thanks for the chance!

Wacky Woman said...

I like modern quilts, scrappy modern quilts. What a lovely giveaway.

Emily said...

I'm a big fan of samplers that display an array of mad quilting skills!

beautiful fabrics - I love aqua and yellow :)

I love dresden plate quilts - although I still don't have the courage to try one!

hafza said...

I love the hand quilted pinwheel pattern quilt

Melinda said...

I'm very ADD with quilting so I tend to dart from one to another: easy one with pre-cuts, then jump to a complicated block. I like doing different quilts all the time!

diane said...

I love all quilts! But I am really loving string quilts lately...I'm finally going to make one, too! Thanks for the giveaway!

Kristin said...

I love the traditional quilts, log cabin, bear paw, and all those. There's something just fascinating about all the history that goes along with the designs.

Lisa Cox said...

I don't really have a favorite type. I think they are all beautiful in their own way. But when I make quilts, I tend to go the easy way: 9 patch, or variations of that, rail fence, etc.
I am a new follower too!

Valerie said...

I really love pinwheels, they're simple but they have such impact and movement, and they're so great for baby/kid quilts.

Jamie B said...

I am very very new to quilting, but I am always drawn to ones that have something unique about them.

vanaehsa said...

I love many differnt types of quilts, but when i am going to sew one i always stick to the easy and quick patterns... not so much patience to do very difficult things!

Jeanine The Crafting Fiend said...

I'm new toi quilting (just about to finish my second quilt top ever) but I like ones tat are easy but look like they were complex

Angelika said...

I'm an absolutly newbe to quilting. I love pillowcases and other homedecor, but the peaces should not to be to small for me.

Hannah said...

I love any quilt that is easy enough for me to do my own thing in - I am hopeless at following a pattern as I always think 'oh I'll just do this instead' and then end up with having to get creative to bring it all together :~)

Unknown said...

I'm new to quilting so it has to be something simple and "forgiving" since I'm concerned about my measuring and cutting abilities LOL.

Thanks for the chance.

Janet said...

Sis-O said...

Fave quilts are the ones I find in Antique/thrift stores made with old, bright, scrappy fabrics. Love the layer cakes and will put to good use if I win.

Um. I love ALL quilts. All of them. I think my favorite quilt I made was an attic window. :D

Samantha said...

My favorite quilt to sew is probably Log Cabin since that is what I seem to go back to if I have fabric but no plan! My favorite quilt by far to look at is Grandmother's Flower Garden. I love hexies!

I follow your blog. Thanks for a chance at these layer cakes! I just got a pattern that calls for layer cakes so these would be awesome. :D

Cheryl said...

I love modern quilts!

Lindsay said...

I'm partial to scrappy quilts-that's what my Grandmas and great-Grandmas mostly made, so to me that is my earliest memory of what quilts are. I don't think I knew people used new fabric to make quilts until I was in like high school!

DangAndBlast! said...

I like traditional quilts, the fancier the better - but geometric/pieced, not applique. I can admire an applique quilt, and indeed have a (storebought) one on my bed, but I prefer geometric ones.

Clare said...

Oh strings. Second best is Amish and third best is liberated, but give me strings every time. You can do so much with them.

Karin said...

To me the ultimate quilt is a postage stamp quilt. I have one my grandmother made and am working (slowly!) on my own.

Crafty Moira said...

I'm not much of a quilter -- but I did just finish a baby quilt using embroidered kitty faces -- so cute! I love art quilts -- I'm not good at being exact so having the freedom to be wild is much more my style. Love the fabric choices!

Barbara said...

I like most quilts, although I'm often not fond of modern quilts that are just cut strips sewn every which way. I like to see some skill involved in the sewing.

Stephanie said...

Well, right now I'm working on a sampler quilt, so that's my current favorite. Lots of colorful blocks that don't really match each other or anything, but pieced together with some nice neutral sashing, they make something beautiful!

What gorgeous fabrics, I love blues, in fact I have a blue house! I don't have a particular favourite style but my favourite at the moment is the star quilt I'm making because its the first one I've made for me! I've finished all the blocks but just need to get to the sashing! (and its blue - surprise, surprise!)

Trish said...

I love baby quilts because the size is so convenient and easy to make!

ikkinlala said...

I like simple quilts - at this point my skills aren't yet up to the fancy stuff, and my general aesthetic is simple anyway. I like examples of both traditional piecing and modern quilts, but my favourites tend to have fairly muted colours (sometimes along with a few pieces of something special enough to feature).

Stephanie said...

My favorite type of quilt... wow, that's a tough one. I would really like to make the honeycomb quilt I saw in this book- Quilting Line and Color: Techniques and Designs for Abstract Quilts. It looks amazing.

Eileen said...

my favorite quilt type is anything with applique, but i love so many kinds and am in the middle of a strata quilt, a sylvia's bridal sampler, and several others. thanks for opportunity and have a great day

Laurel09 said...

My favorite quilt that I have made was a block quilt using half-square triangles and contrasting colors that made a great boxy pattern in rings around the center. My favorite quilt that I have not made, but will make soon, is any kind of "stars" quilt - I would really like to make the quilt from the Oh My Stars quiltalong.
