I love Moon Shadows by Ann Lauer of Grizzly Gulch Gallery! It’s a snowy trees night scene – wintery but not specifically Christmas!
My favorite Christmas quilt so far is the American Patchwork and Quilting quilt along they did last year. It had a variety of blocks that were super fun and easy to make. It had Christmas trees, snowmen, ice skates, mugs, peppermints, stars, ornaments, Santa hatsā¦
I am searching for a pattern for a Christmas Quilt… I must be tooo picky.. I just havenāt found a pattern that calls to me.(.make me, make me!). I did make the Christmas Tree wall hanging from a few years back… so Iām thinking a quilt with trees..I just donāt know! One of these days I hope to find that perfect quilt to make!! But I would love to win something!!
My favorite Christmas quilt is one that I embroidered blocks in 2020 and sashed with green and gold. However, I think the Harrisburg quilt pattern would be beautiful in greens and reds with snowflake white on white for the background. I enjoy your YouTube posts each day. Thanks for sharing your expertise.
I would love to win. I had ordered the shirt (long sleeved) but it was too big. I gifted a friend. She was very happy! And the notebook I gave to my granddaughter! So I would love my own shirt and notebook plus the book. My favorite Christmas quilt is my Christmas woodland wonderland. It was a sew along a couple of years ago. Thank you, Pat!
You are such a great inspiration Pat! Thanks for all your work. My favourite Christmas quilt would be my `Bringing Home the Christmas Tree` by Lori Holt; it was the first kit I purchased from FQS & had fun stepping out of my comfort zone. Had enough leftover fabric to do a table runner to match; one of my quilts for myself;
A few years back you did a sew along and I made mine the Grinch. It is the first quilt I sent to the Spa. I love all that you do. I would love to be selected. Thank you Pat.
My favorite Christmas quilt is a red and white flannel quilt my grandmother made (1930ās era). Itās warm and cuddly and its like my grandma is holding me when I wrap it around me. My second favorite Christmas quilt is a Christmas tree skirt I made in 1985. Iām so excited about this giveaway I have been wanting that Christmas quilt book and a quilt T-shirt wow in blue, yes please. I love the matching notebook! Thanks for all you do, by the way my husband wakes me up in the morning to tell me that my video with pat is almost on and to hurry and get ready to watch (sometimes he listens as well) š I hope I win!
I am fairly new to quilting, I haven’t made anything for Christmas yet but I bet I could if I won your book!
My favorite Christmas quilt is Dot the Halls. It is machine embroidered block by AnitaGoodesign.
I watch you every morning. Love the projects you do! Love the book, notebook and T-shirt. Would love to win!
My favorite Christmas quilt is the one on the cover of the Home for the Holidays book. Iām a relatively new quilter so I donāt have a lot of knowledge of particular Christmas quilts. Love your giggles and fun YouTube channel and FB community.
My favorite winter quilt is a pattern by Modern Handcraft. Itās a large white partial snowflake surrounded by multiple colors of small squares. I havenāt made it yet but planning it in a range of blue and teal and purple background with the white snowflake.
My favorite Christmas quilt is Vintage Christmas by Erica Ardnt. It was very intimidating due to all the tiny pieces. But once I started, it was easy.
My fav Christmas quilt is one by fig tree. Forgot name of it but it is a sampler. Thank you and good luck to everyone.
I love my Merry and Bright Christmas quilt. I put fleece on the back, so itās warm and snuggly for cold evenings. My husband usually asks me in February or March when I am going to put it away.
I haven’t made a Christmas quilt yet. The Home for the Holiday quilt book would be a welcome start to making a new quilt!
I love your videos. I never miss a day. Thank you for all that you do.
From all the quilts Iāve made I never made a Christmas quit. I purchased the Christmas Quilting book and Iām excited to follow along with you to make my first
I am looking to find a favorite winter specific quilt, but for now, I really love any lemoyne star quilt with winter holiday fabrics. I did recently order your Holiday Hoopla book and canāt wait to receive it!
Pat, this is such a nice gift to win.
I would love to be a winner.
I have only made 1 Christmas quilt, still not quilted yet.
I call it Frolicing Snowmen. All the fabrics have snowmen
And/or snowflakes on it. I bought the tumbler!! Love it!
I have been watching your videos since Covid. I appreciate how you continually recognize the need to change up your presentation and information you are doing. You are truly an instructor. Thank you for fulfilling our needs
I love looking at Scandinavia type quilts. I also love The Charming Christmas tree quilt, fun to make. This looks like a great book, another great giveaway!
I love everything that has to do with Christmas. I have made many quilts with Christmas themed fabric. My favorite is one I made with red, black and silver material. In a Dresden pattern and wonky stars in the corners of rack block.
I love the jelly roll snowflake quilt. Itās on my bucket list
My favorite Christmas quilt is my āSleighbell Samplerā from the book Winter Wonderland. I used a line called Sugar and Spice and replaced the Scotty dog with a gingerbread man.
Looking forward to making a new Christmas Quilt and would appreciate your giveaway. Have completed several of your quilt alongside and currently my bed quilt is from your fabics
I just love love Pat’s patterns. I keep learning new things .
It’s amazing to see everyone’s interpretation of each block.
Me, I tend to be very literal.
My favorite Christmas quilt, so far, is the one I made with Jim Shore fabric.
MY favorite Christmas quilt is Bringing Home The Tree. It was a big challenge for me but I pushed through and loved learning everything I did.
My favorite kind of Christmas quilt is to do a star pattern in Christmas material. I did make the Christmas tree wall hanging sew along with fat quarter shop. I enjoy making Christmas tree blocks and like to make mug rugs and table toppers combing
Trees and stars.
My favorite Christmas quilt Iāve made with the Sloan Zone is Holly Jolly Wreaths. But Bringing home the Christmas tree is on my list for this year. Unless Pat comes up with another Christmas sew along, I feel left out if I donāt try to do them all! Love this group and all the projects we do together. Thanks Pat.
My favorite Christmas quilt is the one I plan to make this year. It will be my first. Still looking for the perfect pattern. : )
Hi Pat. I watch you everyday but not live. Living in Arizona. I have learned so much and love you quilt alongs. Was thinking of buying that Christmas quilt book, Home for the Holidays and forgot to order.Love your shirt and would love to win. Thank you, Janet
Just love your videos, website and Facebook group! Such a fun community! I havenāt done a Christmas quilt but have cute layer waiting in my line up. No pattern in mind yet so I am open for ideas! Last year was the year for table runners for Christmas. So many cute fabrics for the holidays.
I donāt make big quilts but stocking, wall quilts and of course table runners. This year Iām hoping to make your pattern Peppermint Twist from Holiday Celebrations.
Christmas quilts are so beautiful and enhance the season. You can never have enough. Thanks Pat for all you do
I would love a chance to win! So far my favorite Christmas quilt is Merry and Bright. It was the first Christmas quilt I have made.
Now I am ready to do the Christmas mystery sew along.
My current favorite Christmas quilt is a quilt I made composed of very large flying geese blocks in varying Christmas prints. The pattern is Lazy Goose from Villa Rosa Designs. Thanks so much for your daily quilty inspiration!
Love your show, you really motivate me todo more quilting!
I love your OH MY STARS quilt and I had so much fun doing it last
Christmas that I am set to do another.
Thanks Pat!
My favorite Christmas quilt was Woodland Holiday by Quiltdoodle Designs. It was a appliquĆ© BOM in 2021 that I made for my Grandson. They live in the Adirondacks in Northern New York and definitely could use it to stay warm. Lots of woodsy animals – a great quilt design that was just the right amount of difficulty and ease to make it enjoyable. Thanks Pat Sloan for all you do for all the quilters out thereš
My favorite Christmas quilt is a Rudolph wall hanging made from a panel. My next favorite is FQSā Jolly Snowflake. It is the first quilt I fully finished including quilting on my home machine. Thanks for all your videos. Each one is very informative and fun.
Hello! I would love to win the giveaway š. And I love watching your quilting videos on YouTube!!
My favorite Christmas quilt is from the quilt along you did with The Fat Quarter Shop—the Christmas tree in two sizes. I’ve made three but don’t yet have one for myself. I would love to win the book, notebook, and T-shirt in your give-away.
The Snowflake quilt is my favorite. I watch you every day. Love your sew alongside so much.
Thank you Pat for all the wonderful videos, patterns, etc. My favorite Christmas quilt was the Christmas Mystery for 2018 Merry and Bright Quilt. Christmas is my favorite time of the year and love making anything Christmas. Would love to win the Christmas book.
I made several O My Stars table runners in Christmas fabrics for gifts last yeat. Love that pattern. Thanks for keeping us all motivated!!
I made a take five Christmas quilt with snow globes and itās beautiful would love to win. I watch you everyday and I am learning so much. Thanks for all you do.
I havenāt made that many Christmas quilts. Of the few Iāve made were simple patchwork that I jazzed up with fancy quilting. I enjoy your you tube channel and enjoy watching you put fabrics together for your quilts. I want to make a critter quilt, too! It would be nice to be the winner of the gifts.
