My fave Christmas quilt is the one I’m currently working on! LOL I’m doing Shelly Cavana’s Christmas QAL BOM right now, and need to get fabric going for the Mystery Evergreen Quilt with Fat Quarter Shop. I have so many Christmas Tree Quilts that need quilting! I need a longarmer boyfriend! Is there such a thing? hahahahaha Anyway, thanks for all you do Pat!
Thank you for a wonderful giveaway. So many fun and beautiful Christmas quilts, itās hard to choose. I love Lori Holtās Vintage Christmas quilt. I canāt believe how fast this year has gone by already, I need to get busy, haha.
My favorite Christmas quilt is whatever one Iām currently working on. I currently have 4 in the works! Iāve been working on Merry and Bright forever and can finally see the finish line. The flimsy of my Christmas version of Oh My Stars is almost complete. I had completed the first few rows when it had to be put away while my kitchen was redoneā¦..dust everywhere!! Kitchen is almost complete and now I have more time to quilt!
My favorit is Noel Panel Sampler by Art To Heart.
I made a Christmas Sampler from an on-line pattern (don’t remember the name) but it had some great blocks–one of my favorites was a “Christmas Presents” block!!
I would love to win the book or anything else. It’s kind of a dreary day here in Nebraska. Think I will fire up my quilting machine and finish the quilting on a donation quilt. Pulling fabric for the Christmas Sewalong, as well.
My favorite Christmas quilt is the one I’m making right now with the Riley Blake fabric line called Kringle. I love the Father Christmas panel.
I canāt say I have a favorite Christmas quiltā¦Iāve made so many and Iām still working through my stash. I guess itās the one Iām working on at the time. Right now itās a log cabin scrappy quilt.
I love to make Christmas quilts. I have 4 Christmas quilts. I really don’t have a favorite because I love them all. I have made Christmas quilts for my 3 sons and their spouses, also for my 4 grandchild. Now that I think about it, I think that I am a little obsessed with Christmas.
I love your quilt-alongs and have made a few. I am diffidently going to do the Christmas wall hanging in August.
My favorite Christmas quilt is a quilt my mother made me years ago from many fabric lines. A small lap quilt; I love getting it out every year or sometimes during the year.
My favorite Christmas quilt is a turning twenty pattern I made using 20 embroidery blocks I stitched.
I am working on doing festivals and fireworks in a Christmas line. It will be my 1st Christmas quilt, so hopefully will be my favorite.
The only Christmas quilt I have made is the snowflake. Love the quilt. Thank you for everything you do.
I have so many Christmas quilts. I love them all. The Jellyroll Snowflake, Charming Christmas both from Fat Quarter Shop. To Be Jolly by One Canoe Two to name a few. I love everything Christmas!!ā¤ļøš²āļø
My favorite Christmas quilt is a row quilt I made during a Fat Quarter Christmas sew-a-along about 2 years ago. It has trees, stockings and ribbons. I made it from my stash and I just love it!
My favorite Christmas quilt is a snowman quilt that was embroidery with saying and done with glitter made about 15 years ago, I had no idea how to quilt, 8ts a wall hanging which I finally gave to my daughter last Christmas
Awesome giveaway!! š¤ Hope I win!!!šMy favorite Xmas quilt is a applique tree skirt I made many years ago. I made it when the kids were babies and now as grown adults, they still love to see it.ā¤ļøFamily traditions are the best!!
I have a hard time deciding on a favorite x-mas quilt. Maybe my snowman quilt that I made a few years ago. It was a sew along by National quilters circle and I used my Debbie Mumm Snowman fabric that I had from years ago.
I made Lori Holts Vintage Christmas quilt. Still need to quilt it it drove me nuts with the small pieces but after it was together I loved the work. It is on my list to start quilting in a few weeks after I finish the one I am working on for my nephew. I just love your new t-shirt.
Sorry that it went to reply. It was supposed to be my entry.
My favorite winter quilt is a blue and white quilt I made using the Crossing Paths quilt pattern from the Missouri Star Quilt Company.
Hope I am not to late to enter the giveaway. My computer was not giving me your email yesterday. I watch you everyday. I also am subscribed to Sheri McConnel’s YouTube page. I really like her designs and fabrics as well as yours. I enter a lot but so far I haven’t won anything from you. My most made so I guess my favorite quilts in Christmas and or winter fabrics are table runners I have made for everyone in my family along with for several friends.
My favorite quilt is your Nordic snowflake – love the vibe and simplicity and it oddly fits right in here at the beach – the only real snowflake I hope to see ever!
Christmas Quilt favorite, is one that I’ve not made yet. Still looking for that perfect pattern and fabrics that shout out in joy the reason for Christmas. There are so many wonderful patterns and fabrics, just have not seen my “favorite” yet. I still hope i’m eleligible for the give away.
I do love your quilts, fabrics and patterns, I always feel like I’ve come home.
I love your videos! I watch everyday!
My favorite Christmas quilt is all Iāve done. One is one of your sew-a-longs I did a few years ago.
I also did a Christmas tree panel into a attic window.
Would love to win the book, tee and planner!
I’m a sucker for Christmas fabric and have made a lot of Christmas quilts over the years. My favorite one though is a queen size Dresden plate quilt I made with scraps from Christmas stockings, Christmas dresses, tree skirts, etc I’ve made for family members. Some of the fabric goes back 30 years.
My favorite Christmas quilt is one I made with fussy cut large print cardinals within a large star setting finished with a staggered width piano key border. It is perfect in my rustic rec room displayed next to the Christmas tree. It’s funny bc I saw a thread advertising the book a day before your video and immediately checked my local quilt shops to see if it was available, which it wasn’t. Then I saw your video and realized why! A big thank you to the kind lady who donated the book and your generosity as well.
My favorite Christmas Quilt is Heaven and Nature Sings. The warm windows of the houses remind me of home and family. All of the animals decorating the forest for Christmas Eve are so whimsical. The quilt took me a long time to cut out the tiny pieces, but it was worth the wait.
Pat I love all the sew along quilts you do! Thank you for all the inspiration!!
My favorite Christmas quilt is my appliqued 12 Days of Christmas that I found in a quilt magazine years ago.
Hi Pat! I’m new to quilting and love your videos! I’m making Christmas tree quilt out of strip blocks – I guess that’s my favorite so far! Thanks for the give-away.
My favorite Christmas quilt is probably my paper pieces nativity scene- so many fun details! Thanks for sharing your optimism everyday.
My favorite christmas quilt is a Santa panel that I quilted.
Winter time I bring out my cabin feeling quilt.plaids reds, blacks and browns. The quilt just makes me love winter.
Thank you sharing your hindsight and creative ideas.š
Winterville by Thimble Blossoms šāļø
Thank you for showing the white fabrics from Fat Quarter Shop. My favorite Christmas quilt is Bringing Home the Christmas Tree by Lori Holt. I love the one you made in your quilt along. On my list to make.
Hello, I have learned a lot you, thank you. I love the Christmas panels since I am a beginner quilter. Good luck to me and everyone else for the giveaway!
Great giveaways. I hope I’m lucky and win!
I really love stars for any season! There are so many gorgeous Christmas fabrics that would be wonderful in any design!! I did a Wonky Tree quilt with Christmas fabrics too and itās one of my favorites!!! Love all your inspiration Pat. Thank you!
I love the one on the cover!!
Thank you for your generosity and encouragement.
(Mail corrected on this comment)
I made Christmas quilts last year for my 5 children , then made myself one . So guess thatās my favorite . Thanks for the give away .
You are always generous and encouragingā¦.thank you. Great giveaway.
I havenāt made it yet, but I really am drawn to Chelsi Strattonās Little Town quilt pattern. I do believe a scrappy Little Town is in my future!šš
My favorite Christmas quilt is a simple twenty five patch, set with large squares of a Christmas cat print. The cat in the print looked like our cat we saved when she was dumped beside the road as a tiny kitten. She thrived and we were blessed to have her. She died suddenly at eight years old and has been gone ten years, but I still look forward to hanging her quilt every year. We still miss her running through the house and demanding her food. She was good company in my sewing room.
My favorite Christmas Quilt is Knitted Star, by Lo and Behold Stitchery! I bought fabric to make a red and white one, but I havenāt started yet!
I don’t have a favorite Christmas quilt. I’m still looking for “the one.” šš„°
A quilt made with all my chritmas tshirts
I think last year or the year before you did a Christmas tree sew along using 2 1/2 squares, and I hang it on my wall at Christmas. I would love the win the gift you offered today. I love your show and canāt wait to have my coffee while watching your show. When you take much deserved days off, you are missed.
I absolutely love this sew along! Stars are some of my favorites. Thank you for teaching us!
So difficult to choose just one favorite Christmas quilt, especially with so many beautiful fabrics and patterns. Oh My Stars Christmas wall hanging (thank you Pat), and a hunters star in red and gold are 2 of my favs
