Since I’m a desert dweller, I head to the cool pines in the mountain. I tell my family I need a pine fix. Gotta hear the wind blowing through the trees, smell damp earth, sit in front of a fire, and snuggle under quilts.
My favorite summer activity is camping and hiking in the beautiful National Parks!
Love the owl quilt, so cute
I would love to have a Pat Sloan quilt for my beachy decorated house!
Hand appliqué quilt giveaway- oh my! Yes, yes, yes! I love your beach themed quilt! I would ge honored to have one of your quilts in my home! I have never done hand appliqué and now you have inspired me to try this! Thank you for coming into my home and sharing your creativity and patterns! I watch you every morning with my coffee before I do anything else in my day!
My favorite summer activity is anything that gets my family together, a picnic, walk along the river, fun and games etc. I don’t live near a beach but loved going to beaches when I traveled. I love your beachy quilt.
I love seethe day at the beach with my family
what a wonderful quilt. I love that you appliquéd this beauty. what an honor to have one of your quilts.
My fav summer activity is to stay cool and quilt! I live in Sun City AZ and Summer is HOT! I would love a quilt by Pat Sloan!
I love the summer and everything about it . The beach, the waves, the sounds, the seals, I love it!
I have to start looking for beach books!
I love spending time with my grandchildren. I make a quilt with at least one of them in the summer.
My favorite summer activity is lake life. We live on the lake so our family and grandkids visit often.
I love your creativity and ideas and patterns you share are awesome! Thank you so muchđ
Quilting is my passion. I sew everyday and all day long. Summer through winter. My husband loves to garden.
His favorite is Hostaâs so weâve had garden tours in our yard displaying quilts as a compliment. So fun!
Favorite summer activity ~ same as my favorite activities year-round ~ quilting! But also love walking in the sand, beach-combing, hiking in the cooler woods, reading, and sipping coffee with friends! Sounds like the makings of a quilt retreat!
I love to go for walks with my husband , sewing and spending time outside in our NorCal sunshine.đ
I love to go camping and exploring almost everywhere there aren’t many people đ. I love the beach to watch for dolphins and birds, look for shells, and wade in the water. I also like the dark skies over the ocean at night.
The sound of the ocean fills my soul and brings me peace. I’ve live all but 7 of my 86 years living on the Pacific Coast. Add quilting and I am at peace. The peace for me is quilting .. the joy is in the giving. Love this quilt!
I would love that quilt! I appreciate the handp applique and the design is so fun. I too enjoy the “making” and in each quilt try to do something new
my summer fun is having a cousins’ camp for all my grandchildren. They l9ve in various places so this helps them get to know each other. As a child I grew up near several families of cousins and loved the time we spent together throughout the year.
Love the quilt
Beautiful quilts Pat. It will be my best birthday gift if I win your quilt. â€ïž
I love to sit on our patio in the morning and have my coffee
We plan a family trip each summer and take our grands to the beach to fish and play in the water. We are fortunate to live close to s ca beaches. The quilt is a work of art!
My favorite thing to do in the Summer is:
Push my granddaughter in her stroller to the park.
I live in Florida and to be honest, my favorite summer activity is anything that keeps me in air conditioning!
I love this and I’m going to get a trip to the beach in May with my cousin and it’s all ladies!!!
I love quilting and also the beach, it would be an honor to have one of your quilts.
I love being near the water in the summer. My favorite summer water activity is water skiing. Being in the center of the United States, that means a lake, but I would prefer a nice sandy beach!
OhMyStars! ThatđŠquilt is fabulous! In Japan Fukuro (owl) represents good luck, wisdom and protection against misfortune. Perfect quilt for the home. My favorite summer activity is swimming in the pool but when the sun is full blast I prefer quilting in the air conditioning.
Having one of your quilt especially one with hand sewed appliques would be amazing. You have showed me how to choose fabric and many more helpful tips. Thanks for your help.
Taking my German Shepherd to the beach to play in the water is one of my favorite Summer activities
That is a beautiful summery quilt! I love the beach even though I live in a landlocked state. It reminds me of the time my Daughter and I went to Gulf Shores Alabama about 20 years ago, I miss it, so fresh feeling there. Thank you for your expertise!
You are AMAZING. i love watching you every morning. your beach quilt is wonderful lots of work went into the making of that.
Summer is very hot in my state. I do get out for walks and go to our neighborhood pool. Other than that, I stay inside in the AC and sew!
I so appreciate you giving away a special quilt, I love the beach and your quilt is beautiful. Thank you for your videos, inspiration and energy!
My favorite summer activity is swimming! I try to swim most every day, if the weather is good. If the weather isnât good, Iâm in the basement working on quilts!!
I love going to the beach with friends and shelling!đđđđđ
I’m a native Oregonian so I have to be outside, camping and hiking.
putting my name in to win one of your beautifully quilts. Thanks Pat for sharing all your knowledge …I have improved my quilting skills from all your guidance and have made many of your sew along quilts. You are by far my favorite quilt pattern designer to follow. I love love love your patterns and are disappointed by other designers and have to rewrite the patterns to make the blocks.
Thanks Again Pat for all you do for the quilting world.
I’m not into beach quilts (living in the desert) but my 7 year old granddaughter lives near a beach, loves going there and collecting “beach things” and would be ecstatic with such a quilt. You did a great job on it, by the way!
What a generous act of giving away something made by you. It would be an honor to receive such a beautiful gift. Thank you for thinking of your family of quilters.
Hello Pat Sloan,
I am new to your site, I think. I love what I have seen today. Love the joy I am feeling. I recently had to move which has been very draining. Your energy is wonderful. I am going to participate in the QAL What’s in your closet. I think the owls are very elegant. I am looking forward to Quilting along with you and your group.đ„°
My favorite Sumer activity is a road trip with my mom which we do in my convertible.it keeps her young. She is 87.Eould love to win the quilt
In the summer months I love gardening and enjoying a variety of flowers I’ve planted over many years. Much like our quilts, they each have a story to tell!
One of favorite kinds of quilts is appliquĂ© however it is the one type of quilt I don’t often make. I don’t feel as comfortable working on them and I am slow and never feel that it looks that good. I would love to win your quilt and it fits right into my decor as I live in Florida.
Being on our pontoon on the lake with our grandkids. We let them play in the water plus do a little fishing It wonât be long they wonât want to hang out with Mamo and Pa.
Pat Sloan you are so generous and you’re right the JOY is in the making – you are our Joy many mornings and I want to Thank You for the JOY!! đ€©
It would be awesome to win this Summer Quilt. So much work and love went into it.
I would be honored to win a quilt made by Pat. I completely get it, Pat. The excitement is in the journey making and creating! Once itâs done, NEXT!
We try to get away to the Oregon coast once each summer to evade the heat and smoke of our valley. That quilt is so sweet, so of course I’d enjoy having it in my home or at a friend’s.
Hi Pat,
Love to go on statewide shop hops during the summer. We get to explore beautiful old towns and diners. We also try to hit a few golf courses to keep hubby happy.
