I haven’t made a traditional Christmas quilt yet but I did make a Breyer quilt in a class I took some time ago in burgundies and greens that I call my Christmas quilt. It still needs binding!thank you for the fun give aways!! I’m
I watch you everyday. I would love to win this from you.I have made several quilts along with you and have my fabric ready for the Christmas Mystery.Thank you for all the time you put in to bring us along with you quilting.
A favorite Christmas quilt is the giant snow flake! I have also been working on a 3-d Christmas tree quilt that I have been working on for several years! There is always new and fun projects to do! Thank you for your videos! You are an inspiration to me!
First of all, I love that book! I checked it out from the library last year and have it on my wishlist. A pattern called Silent Night. I have all the fabrics now and plan on enlarging it to fit our bed
Every Christmas I hang my Guild President’s quilt – as outgoing president I chose the block and members made one and at the end of my presidency I put them all together – I asked for a “tree” block (of any kind). The blocks range from paper pieced trees to intricate thread art blocks. There are a couple of blocks that have an extra character in them – Santa in one, and a moose in the other, both have a significant meaning to me. The backing is a piece of “2000” fabric – the year I served as president. I hang it all the way thru January until I change out to Valentine(ish) quilts. This is my favorite Christmas quilt filled with memories, especially of members who are no longer with us. HUGS… and stitches
Thank you for the opportunity to enter and all the wonderful videos. I love my Snowflake Quilt.
This project is really so pretty coming together. I made a Christmas quilt last year with Santa among the trees. It is my first Christmas quilt and is super special since I swapped green fabrics with 5 friends to add variety to my quilt. We all made a version of a “tree” quilt, and it was a fun challenge to ourselves.
Would love to win that book! I wwatch every show and books of patterns/ideas would be great! Keep teaching us!!
A favorite Christmas Quilt, that stays out all Winter, is one with Deb Strains fabrics, and designed by her friend Barb called Home For the Holidays. I made one for each of my children too – so five in all.
Thank you for your daily videos – even my husband will remind me, that ‘Pat is on soon’, and will come and watch with me each time. He never realized what is all involved in colour matching, and will often comment on what he feels would look good, or not :)!
You are a wonderful inspiration and motivator, Pat!
So glad I found you Pat back in 2019 !! You have and continue to teach me so much.
I print your monthly calendar and par take in your sew a long’s.
I watch your daily video’s and find them so interesting.
Thank you for all you do !!
I made an advent calendar, Quilt As You Go Holiday Hexies Advent Calendar Pattern by Missouri Star, which was challenging but so cute when completed. I also made for my sister and brother a GNOEL (the Gnome)wall hanging from Hunter’s Design Studios. I’ve not made a Christmas quilt yet, on my list of things to do :).
Love to watch your videos and being a part of your FB community. What a wealth of knowledge! My favorite Christmas quilt will most likely be this current FQS sew along because it’s the only Christmas one I’ve done! I’m new to sewing in general. I do notice, as I look at patterns, I like Christmas trees for quilts with an accent tree. I also like quilts that look like a big snowflake. They seem magical to me! Thanks for all you do!
I would love to win the book and goodies from you. My favorite Christmas quilt is the first one I made with you out of fat eighths. I used the Flapjacks pattern.
I have a paper pieced tree that I just adore. I used a piece of silver shiny fabric that a looks like tinsel. It was a perfect addition. I also have several snowmen that I hang around the house at Christmas time.
I would love to be the winner of this giveaway. Such beautiful things. Thank you
My favorite Christmas pattern is tall trees by Chris and dell. Two sizes. One for the door and a smaller one for the wall.
Holiday homies in Tula Pink flannel using Merry and Bright pattern.
You inspire me to do more! Unfortunately, my daily job prevents me from getting it done! I would love to win the giveaway and add to my list of projects and ideas shelf!
I would love to win the book,planner and of course the tee. Enjoy your videos!☺️
I actually have two quilts, one being snowmen that my husband requested and the second is Dresden plates made into snowflakes, with smaller appliqué snowflakes. These were both from “Quiltmaker” magazines.
I do not have a favorite Christmas quilt yet! Enjoying your videos everyday, you brighten my day.
As always great content. Love the partnership with FQS and showing the fabrics on your you tube channel. I can definitely see them so much better than 1 dimensional pictures. Thanks to both of you. You are inspiring 🙂
My favorite Christmas quilt are the 3 quilts I made for my kids with a line of Moda fabrics by Robin Pandolph….. Christmas colors in the beautiful florals. The fabrics were a gift from my mother and so the quilts have a special meaning.
Love your show, watch all the time! Would love to win the giveaway! The new design is great and the book would be a great addition to my library. Have a wonderful day!
My favorite Christmas quilt is the Snowflake sew along quilt the Fat quarter shop did and Oh Christmas Tree by Fig Tree and company! I really would like to do Lori Holts Christmas quilt! Sewing for the Holidays looks like a fabulous book!
I have a Christmas quilt that my mother made. I have a lot of Christmas fabric and I’ve been searching for the perfect quilt to make. I’m loving the current mystery Christmas quilt from fat quarter shop. Thanks for all the videos and giveaways.
I have many favorite Christmas quilts. My newest favorite is a Christmas mystery quilt completed last year. Many
More in planning stages including a Christmas Oh My Stars.
I love the quilt on the cover of the book, would love to add it to my small selection!
My favorite Christmas quilt is made using the knitted star pattern. Thank you for another fun giveaway.
My favorite Christmas quilt is the “Charming Christmas” pattern. I made the quilt size and made 6 of the wall hanging sizes for Christmas gifts. Thanks for all your videos–watch with my morning coffee.
My favorite Christmas quilt is a cactus wreath by cozy quilt designs. I used metallic fabrics in reds and greens. I made a queen size for my bed. And she’s absolutely gorgeous!
My favorite Christmas quilt is a simple patch work red, green and white.
Thank you for all your great tips and tricks! It’s hard to choose a favorite Christmas quilt since any great pattern could be a Christmas quilt with the right fabrics!!
Oh…Favorite Christmas Quilt? It’s impossible for me to pick…honestly, I turn many “not Christmas patterns into Christmas patterns. Thank you for all you do—I’m hoping to win this one!
Good morning. I don’t have a favorite Christmas quilt — I love them all! It’s so fun to pull out the Christmas quilts when decorating every year. Winning anything from you would be so exciting!
Great video today! I am subscribed and LOVE to see what you are doing each day. Follow on FB as well! LOVE to see everyone’s work, sewing rooms, and projects! THANKS for creating this community!
I like the jelly roll snowflake quilt.
My favorite one is the quilt that you had a sew-a-long with last year, and you used fall fabrics. Mine used the Fig Tree Christmas fabrics. I can’t think of the name of the pattern to save my life.
My favorite Christmas quilt is an appliqué quilt I made up of winter themed scenes
I have a quilt made from a panel of a Christmas tree and presents which I quilted myself and I love to display that at Christmas time.
I love the giant snow flake quilt we made a few years ago! So simple, but stunning!
My favorite Christmas quilt is from your sew along “home is” – I used Christmas fabrics and it’s beautiful and fun! I would love to win your giveaway.
Also I have been subscribed to your channel since I started sewing and quilting back in 2017. Thanks for all you do!
Today’s video was very interesting. Thanks for sharing so much info.
Thank you for the wonderful giveaway today. Haven’t made a lot of Christmas/winter themed quilts, but my favorite is a red wool coat I bought at the thrift store many years ago . I cut out white wool snowflakes and machine appliqué them to the coat with silver threads. Have received many compliments. Before that coat I bought a black wool coat and my mom and I hand appliqué a winter forest scenery with trees snow and animals. Watch you everyday. No matter how old you are there’s always room to learn something new everyday.
My favorite Christmas quilt is “Bringing Home The Christmas Tree” by Lori Holt. I participated in your quilt along during COVID. Thanks for all your videos.
I really love the Jelly Snowflake that Fat Quarter Shop did in 2020. I love it so much that I am afraid to finish mine for fear of messing it up.
My favorite Christmas quilt is a tree panel that added blinking light to
My favorite Christmas quilt is Bringing home the Christmas tree!
Love seeing new pattern books – Home for Holidays would be a good addition – Thanks for all you do. Watched a couple of videos from a couple of years – amazing how time flies!
Good morning. I would love love love to win something from you. I watch you everyday. Never miss a day. I do almost all your sew alongs. Just love your programs. Thank you for all you do Pat.
