Beat the Winter Blues – Quilters’ Blog Hop Party


Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face. 
Victor Hugo


Are you ready for Spring?  Maybe you just love winter and cold and snow and don't care if it hangs on a little longer.  Here in Georgia we have had some of our coldest days of the Winter in the last week or so.  I don't mind the cold so much but my husband hates it.  

We haven't seen any snow this year unless you count the few random flakes that fell and disappeared as they hit the ground.  Snow in the South is always a celebration or Holiday for us in the deep South.  Schools and many businesses close down and grocery stores sell out of staples within hours.  Although it seldom happens, when we get enough snow to build a Snowman it is a big event!!  It still could happen this year, although I have my doubts.  The biggest snow storms of my lifetime have ALWAYS happened in March or April.




Thanks to Michelle from the Quilting Gallery for hosting the Blog Hop Party and Giveaway.  There are well over a 120 blogs participating so you have the next few days to sign up for a chance at a lot of prizes.  If you haven't stopped here at my blog before I hope you will take a few minutes to poke around and get to know me.  I have some things that I've done in the last year that I think you will enjoy.

So what am I giving away today?  I thought some happy SNOW related gifts.  I will choose 3 random winners from comments.  I found another copy of this great book.  If you like snowmen or log cabin quilts you will love it.  One of you will win it.


Front Cover

Back Cover


Here is the second prize.  Snowbound by Bee Creative is a nice winter landscape with either a church or barn.  A second person will win it.




I have some cute fabric for a third giveaway.  This print is called Snowballs.  Winner will receive a one yard cut.




Giveaway is closed.

    I usually start with a pattern from a book or magazine. Most often just look at the photo and do my own thing to try to look like that without reading the directions, because reading directions is not my idea of a fun time. LOL. For my art quilts, one I have drawn and the other was a photograph. My next will also be a photograph.

    What wonderful prizes! I generally start by perusing my magazines and books, looking for inspiration. Though I have done a few quilts pretty much like the pattern, most I like to make my own by adding a few twists. I'm not artistic or talented at designing my own, and somewhat spatially dyslexic to boot, so I rely on patterns and directions for the main body of my work.

    I love the Snowbound pattern! I'm still a new quilter and I love the "old" patterns. I've been making quilts for my family and as I see one I like I decide to make that "one". I start with a pattern and then do whatever I feel like, so it never looks likt the pattern by the time I get done with it!

    When I started quilting, all my inspiration came from books and magazines, but then I discovered quilt blogs. I love my EQ7 software, and if I see a pattern I like, I create my own version in EQ. Most of the time I never actually sew the quilt. Thanks for the chance to win.

  29. JanetMarch 9, 2013 at 11:49 AM

    Most of my quilt designs come from the fabric - how to make it look wonderful is always on the top of the list. I find it harder to take a pattern and try to find the right fabric to make it with.

    I use a pattern, either a stand alone purchased pattern or one from a book or magazine. I'm just not comfortable designing my own. I guess I should give it a try. One night at quilt guild, a lady gave a presentation on how she uses her scraps to make quilts for our Hearts and Hands program which gives quilts to needy children and babies. At that time she was using squares and basing them on a 25 match (5X5). She had some wonderful examples. Then she had some flannel boards and blocks that she had made. She had 5 teams of 2ish people come up and design a quilt from the blocks for each quilt. It was a fun night. My friend and I giggled and giggled as we tried to remember how to put some blocks together to just make a pinwheel. I had made a pinwheel before, yet being one of five teams in front of the guild made us more nervous. Thanks for your generous giveaways.

    I would love to win anything snowy as we don't get snow here in Florida.. kind of miss PAs 4 seasons... but any way, I make lots of quilts for my charity group, they send me counted cross stitch square and I use EQ 7 software to design the quilts.. each one just a little bit different...

    I usually use patterns. I sometimes change them or make up some small patterns for gifts....

    I like to plan out a quilt with graph paper and a pencil. I have been loving this blog hop because it has given me so many ideas and great tutorials on so many of the blogs.

    I got EQ7 for Xmas last year. I love it! I use it whenever I am not following a pattern or just doing something random... :) amateurquilter at gmail dot com

    No EQ for me, at least not yet. I still love to look at books, magazines, and blogs to come up with ideas. Then I doodle on regular or grid paper. I love, love, love the snowballs fabric. It's the first I've seen it. Thanks for participating in the blog hop.

    All my inspiration comes from blogs and quilt-alongs on blogs. I probably spend more time reading and viewing quilts than I do making them!

    Mostly I use books or magazines or make my own variation of a traditional pattern (like log cabin).

    I have used EQ to design many of my own quilts. I think I have only followed one pattern from Bonnie Hunter's website.
