I have a wee teeny tiny little collection of holiday fabrics (insert eyes looking to the heavens…) So I got out the crate.. tub... um.. I mean little box of them … and used a piece of my Santa fabric for the window! I'm going to start looking for darling prints to add in!
We are on Block #4.. below is the download & link to my project page with ALL the blocks
TRUE CONFESSION.. this is 'Try #2' as 'Try #1' didn't quite make it.. want to see?
When I made this block I didn't think about how using a different fabric at the bottom would create an entirely new look. It makes the house short. I put it on my design wall for awhile and it bugged me.
So I had a date with Jack, Jack the Ripper, and fixed it up! Don't you think it's better on the one above it?

I make some of all. At the moment I am learning paper piecing. I am going to try my luck at making a quilt from a picture.
I make mostly small projects and lap quilts.
Recently started sewing blocks and found I love making blocks. Have several projects in the works, question is, when the blocks for the project are finished, will I make the quilt or use them for other items, or just enjoy seeing the blocks.
I make mostly lap quilts, even for little kids, as they will “grow” with them.
I make mostly lap size.
I am new so doing small projects until I feel comfortable with a block before I create a whole quilt. Love the blocks that you have been posting! Thanks for all your hard work!
I make mostly lap size quilts.
I’ve been making Lap Quilts…my theory is to have a few large baskets full and ready for friends to wrap up in on cooler nights out on our large back deck! You can never have too many good friends no too many warm blankets!
I make more small quilted items than larger ones. My husband and I have a longarm business, so I rarely have time to make anything bigger.
I make mostly small projects since I live in a small apartment with no room for larger quilts and no one to really give them too. I teach quilting to residents to a senior living community so small is great.
I love giveaways! My Instagram is filled with beautiful quilts, patterns and thread. I mostly make twin or full size quilts. I’m still a newbie of sorts and haven’t branched out much to appliqué. Someday I will.
I usually make bed quilts. My very first project when I started to learn to quilt was a queen size log cabin. I scoured the internet for tutorials because I figured this would be the easiest to learn. I got started and man did I get surprised. The blocks were pretty easy but I wasted a ton of fabric because of bad cutting. I learned my lesson though. Recently I have begun to do smaller projects because I am looking for something faster and just as satisfying. I am currently creating a queen size quilt that is all completed on an embroidery machine (quilting and all except putting it all together)! It is a blast. I want to thank you for all the sew alongs. I have learned a number of techniques that I wouldn’t have the courage to try and one block a week makes it all seem so fast to put together.
Ii make mostly bed quilts

1st I like to said I love you patterns. I will start one soon. I like making bed quilts but love to make smaller projects. As they give me a since of the happiness feeling of getting something done. Considering bed quilts take a little while to complete. Thank you for your inspiring website and news letters.

Hi Pat, so good to talk abt how I make quilts. Well, it depends what I’m making. A quilted pillow, runner, baby, king size quilt or whatever I feel like! 💜
I make a combination of lap, wall and bed quilts.
I love your website and posts and I’d love to win a giveaway!
Most of my quilts are bed size but I am currently working on three
Baby quilts. Fingers crossed for the give away

I think overall it is a toss up between lap quilts and bed quilts but as I get older, the lap quilts have more chance of being finished
I make easy lap or twin size quilts. I also enjoy making smalls too.
I make mostly bed quilts.

I make bed quilts, but it seems the smaller projects are the ones that get completed.
Many of my quilts are twin size (65″ x 80″) or king (120″ x 120″), with some baby quilts for co-workers. Thanks for the giveaway! Deb E / Oregon
Mostly bed quilts, but lately a few lap.
I do mostly lap quilts, but also make bed quilts and small items in between for a change.
I love making small projects. That is why I love the Grandmas Kitchen, I can make the block, be happy I make it once a week and I don’t feel overwhelmed with work, sewing and commuting to work!
Love all your stuff Pat!
I make mostly lap quilts. I make some bed quilts. Lap quilts are fun to make and can be made quickly. I am always anxious to move on to the next quilt!! Thank your for this great giveaway. I have been collecting Blues!!!
I mostly make bed size quilts. Currently I have a twin and a queen I am machine quilting as well as a full size I am binding and two queens I am piecing!
I’ve always been big on making large bed quilts. Now I’m focusing more on lap quilts and want to also focus on lap quilts for nursing home residents. Love the change to the house block.
Mostly lap quilts but I’m itching to do a larger more GaYG for my bed. I love a challenge this keeps me freaked out but I’m still trying 😍
I make mostly lap size quilts and smaller. Love the look of this table runner and fabric
I seem to have made a lot of big quilts, but realize that I need to concentrate on throws and wallhangings because our house doesn’t have any big walls on which to hang the big ones.
I make mostly lap or oversized lap.
I make mostly small projects, such as baby quilts, but I just finished my first queen size quilt!! It was a wedding gift for my granddaughter! I love the colors in this giveaway!! Thanks for all the patterns and tips you share!
I do lap- sized and wall quilts. Also like tote bags!
I usually start out with a small quilt and have so much fun that they grow into full ,queen or even king size! I love the play of a pattern!!
I am beginning to realize more and more that Baby, Lap and especially Mini Quilts are my favorites because I am able to actually complete them including the quilting and they are easier to transport to my monthly Saturday sew group. Blue and white or blue and creams are my favorite color combinations, so of course my eyes were drawn to the Giveaway!
It would be great to be the winner! Thanks for all that you do for the Quilting world. You are certainly a bundle of energy and ideas!
What pretty blues!! I mostly make bed size quilts but I do live a good quick small(er) project once in awhile 😉
I’ve been quilting for years but only just found you on FB!
Love your videos and oh, SOOO love Giveaways! Please pick me?
