The Random picker decided my Logcabin quilt should live with Joann S who said
"My favorite quilt is the first quilt I ever made! My daughter wanted to learn to quilt and she convinced me to take a couple of classes at our fabric store – I was only mildly enthusiastic about quilting – even though I had been a sewer for years. I decided to check out additional classes for us at my local quilt shop and there on the wall was this wonderful quilt with birds on branches. When I asked about it – they told me they were having a retreat the following weekend to make this quilt! I signed up -( my daughter couldn’t attend for family reasons). I made that quilt, which I adore ( it hangs in my sewing room!). Since making that quilt, I am completely hooked on quilting! I had heard people talk about quilting as an addiction, but didn’t understand it until then. This was the quilt that got me to become a quilter!"
Congratulations Joann! I've emailed you

My favorite quilt would have to be one I made for my sister when she started chemo almost ten years ago. Can’t remember the pattern name, but it is anvil blocks with each one a different fabric and hand quilted. Her cancer was supposed to be terminal, but God had different plans – she has been cancer free for probably five years now! All the glory goes to Him, as she told them no more treatments. Anyway, that is beside the point – the quilt hangs over her bed and she has sent me pictures of it hanging there and reminds me how much she loves it (and the guests she has to show it off to do too!) It was originally being made for myself, but quickly changed when she became ill. So glad our color favorites are so similar!!
One of my favorite quilts has been Brightly by Cluck Cluck Sew. It was a fun sew and looks good in solids or prints. I am currently working on a second one in a different colorway.
My favorite quilt I made was” Thinking of Gail”. My sister Gail loved planting butterfly gardens and enjoying the beautiful flowers and butterflies that visited. After she passed away I made the quilt out of the 2016 Hoffman butterfly challenge fabric. It was my own improvisationally pieced creation including a dozen or so “free flying”3D butterflies. It always makes me smile and fills my heart with warm memories of my sister
My favorite quilt that I have finished was a quilt I made for my husband’s 50th birthday. The pattern was from American Patchwork and Quilting. It is log cabin center and in the border, there are appliqued fish going all around the outside. We have been using it in our camper and it works beautifully.
My favorite quilt is the Farmer’s Wife. Lot of blocks but such fun to make.
My favorite quilt I made was a Kitty Cucumber Millennial quilt that had 2000 hidden in the fabric design. I made it for my youngest daughter to take to college. When her friend got neon pink high lighter marker on it, she brought it home and left it because she thought it was too precious to risk having it at school!
My favorite quilt is my first one. Going through my mother’s things, I found a bird panel she had cut apart but not done anything with it. Knowing how much she loved wildlife, I was determined to put them into a quilt in her honor. I found a pattern for the attic window and set about piecing my first quilt.
One of my favorite quilts I made was a bear claw quilt. I used fall colored flannels and I made it for my Mom.
My Mim passed in 2021 and now I have that quilt back.

My favorite quilt I made was my first quilt. I made it for my son I 2016/17 and it was king size! At the time he only had a full size bed😆. I couldn’t help myself when I saw all the pretty fabric out there. After that I was hooked and started following you I made the Solstice quilt that you designed which is my 2nd favorite!
Small World by Jen Kingswell. Went totally out of my “box” on this quilt. Cecile Choi(SewingParty-Laguna Hills, CA) pushed me to not be so afraid of mixing colors/sizes of prints etc. I have this quilt hanging over our bed and love it. Another would be Dear Jane. Took me about 15 years on and off working on it and finally finished earlier this year.
Although not well pieced, my first quilt (Yellow Brick Road)is my favorite. What makes it my favorite is that my daughter asked if I wanted to try a class with her. That was in 1999 and we have gone on amazing quilting experiences together ever since.
My favorite quilt changes as I make more. Usually it is one that I last worked on. I love your red log cabin quilt! I made several log cabin quilts in scrappy reproductions. That was fun too! Currently having quilts quilted for comfort of Maui Fire Victims.
Congratulations on 100K subscribers. I love the log cabin quilt that you are giving away. My favorite quilt that I have made is my very first quilt. I made it 14 years ago. My mother, who made beautiful quilts, helped me make a Ten Color Trip Around the World quilt. We chose navy blues to light blues, reds, and one white with blue and red print that made the navy pop. It was an Eleanor Burns strip quilting method. I even hand quilted it. I didn’t enjoy hand quilting at all, so now I use my sewing machine.
My favorite quilt is the one I made for my husband for our 36 year anniversary! He loves cars from the 60s and the main fabric had blocks of cars I cut into blocks. And other fabrics had pistons and multiple cars. Back ground was dark blue with black car drawings. He loved it!
My favorite quilt is one of the first I made – It had blocks embroidered by my Great Grandmother that I set into frames and then tied as that was all I knew how to do at the time.
My favorite quilt was one that I didn’t “complete” however I did do most of it as a child, my mom had all of these scraps that she cut into I’m guessing, 4×4 squares, I would sew them together into a chain. I was practicing my machine sewing that way, sneaky mom. I grew up, we moved, I bought my own house. I forgot about them. Then I went and got married :-). My mom for my shower took all of those quilt squared, and made a simple strip quilt. The minute I saw it I knew what it was. That was 21 years ago, and now my kids use it to cuddle up in.
My favorite finished quilt is Sew in Love by Edyta Sitar.
My favourite quilt is my Cathedral Window quilt, all done by hand. It was a labour of love that I worked on while sitting with my sister as she was going through cancer treatments.
My favorite quilt of those I have made is called “Sangria”. It is a king size quilt which I made as a “block of the month” quilt. I love to see the colors every time I look at it.
Hometown charms. 5 generations hands, Hialeah race track flamingos, Flipper movies, mom always cooking; Haulover beach; Parrot Jungle; UM, Norman Rockwell kids coming & going in station wagons which was how our family of nine lived thru the 1950’s and 60’s! Our family has grown, mom will celebrate 95 in October! We are blessed!
My favorite quilt was one I made my Grandchild. I did some hand embroidery and loved the colors.
My most recent quilt is currently my favorite. It’s a friendship pinwheel in red, white, and blue. The fabric was Back Porch by Me and My Sister. I did straight line echo quilting and it just turned out to be amazing! It’s just big enough to lie on top of my queen size bed so I am enjoying using it every night.
My favorite quilt I have made is a quilt I made using old uniforms. It was more of a way to dispose of them. Turns out it is the quilt everyone in the family fights over. I made it for fun, and thought it would never get used. Thanks for all your hard work and videos. They are so fun to watch.
My absolute favorite quilt remains my first quilt, a kind of picture frame pattern that I made up, and my first quilt! I made it for a young friend’s first baby, using Little Cowboy fabric (I think it was vintage – bought it from a yard sale) and some bandana fabric that I had from my grandmother’s stash from the 40s. I made it and straight-line quilted it on my 1938 Featherweight. I only have photos of it now, but I still love it!
My favorite quilt was your recent Sweet Childhood Memories. Love the fabric I chose and your patterns are great. Thank you.
my favorite quilt is one I made in honor of my mom. I collected daffodil fabric for about 10 years, then my local quilt shop was having a BOM using a curved ruler. I used the fabric that I had collected and some solidish spring colors. This is one quilt I actually sent to the spa. I then gave it to my daughters who had a wonderful relationship with my mom.
My favorite quilt was “Flower Garden” by Kim McLean, all hand appliqued and hand quilted by me with mostly Japanese fabrics from Keiko Goke. Thanks, Pat and congratulations for 100,000 subscribers!
My Favorite was an Irish chain quilt I made for a relative. It was done in creams and yellows so pretty and cheery.
My favorite quilt I ever made was one for my daughter for Christmas. I designed it with all different kinds of pine trees.
My favorite quilt I have made is Exploding heart, it is a big quilt, love the look on the bed,colors are very pretty.
My favorite quilt since I’m fairly new to quilting is just a charm pack sunflower quilt . The reason is because my two granddaughters had such a good time placing the squares where they wanted them and stepping back to look and changing some to get it just how they wanted . We had such a great time and they were so proud .
My favorite quilt is one that I made by taking 12 monthly classes at Nancy’s Notions in Beaver Dam, WI. [many years ago when i first got into quilting] where we made one block a month and each block had a different technique to learn [applique, yo yo’s, roughing, etc]. It was from a book that Eleanor Burns wrote. and she was coming to Nancy’s sewing weekend so we had our quilts displayed at the show when Eleanor came!
I’ve just recently discovered you on YouTube. Love watching your daily videos. I’ve just recently rediscovered quilting after a 25-year hiatus! My favorite finished quilt is a pieced table runner I made in 1996 in a class with Nancy Bell … it’s for Thanksgiving and has turkeys and pumpkins with a patchwork border.
My favourite quilt is a rail fence with panel pictures and special quilt blocks. I made it for a couple that are so generous and kind to everyone around them.
My favorite quilt was a wedding quilt for my aon and his wife.
I’m not a very experienced quilter. This was probably only the third quilt I made and I was a nervous wreck. I wouldn’t have done it, but my son begged me.
At the reception, I placed 4 1/2 inch squares in a basket with a sign above it asking the guests to write a wish or memory for the new couple. I then offset the signed squares with purple and greens and made a queen-sized quilt.
They were married on Thanksgiving, and I had hoped to have it ready by April. Well….good intentions and all that….I finally finished it and gave it to them – I’m embarrassed to say – five years, yes, FIVE years and two children later.
Nevertheless, they were thrilled and it hangs in their bedroom.
My favorite quilt is Interlocking Stars that I made last year. Pattern from 2011 Fons & Porter magazine. I changed the color of the links which was challenge since the colors changed diagonally down the quilt.
My favorite is always the last quilt that I made. Why? …because it was made with love for a special person.
Most recently, I gave a quilt to a friend of 25+ years for her birthday. The pattern and colors were carefully selected for her. Before my friend’s quilt, it was the quilt I made for my daughter-in-law…etc., etc. Each quilt is a labor of love.
PS … congratulations on the 100K!!!
My favorite quilt I made and finished was “Color My World” made from my stash. This was a free BOM from The Quilt Show during Covid. I fussy cut monsters for some of the attics. It was a real challenge paper piecing without going through the paper! I just loved making it!!
I have so many favorites! One is hanging on my wall in the hallway. It is a sampler done in dark rich colors.
I think my favorite quilt(s) are any of my Halloween themed quilts.
My favorite quilt I made, is the Sew in Love by Editya Sitar! I just love the pinks and reds and creams, and there are a variety of blocks that challenged my skills at the time I made it.
My favorite quilt is the Star Trek quilt I made for my son. It was the 2nd quilt I made. I used the snowball quilt pattern from Fat Quarter Shop. 😊
My favorite quilt was a sock monkey appliqué that I made for my grandson as a baby. He is now 18
My favorite quilt that I made was my first one.
Made out of my kids old Blue jeans 4 1/2 inch square.
A churn dash quilt I made for myself is my favorite. It has all my favorite colors — blues,purples,teals and grays.
my favorite quilt is my Baltimore Album quilt. I love it for the traditional techniques I learned and also in keep with the traditional colors of green and red. I have never made a quilt on point and I wanted to do that and I did it with my Baltimore Album quilt. It has sew many memories for me.
My favorite is a churn dash that I gave away. I think I’m going to make a new one and keep it.,.
My favorite quilt…EPP apple core for my BFF Bette! All Fig Tree fabrics, gorgeous, if I do say so myself! Aloha from Maui

Hi Pat. I have been a subscriber for about 8 years. Congratulations on reaching 100k!
My favorite quilt that I made was one for our 50th wedding anniversary. I had everyone in the family design their own blocks by using my scrap bins. I then put each block together and they signed them. It is a huge quilt but amazing!! Everyone was so creative in their designs, even the guys. Thank you for all that you do!
