I loved the Don’t Look Now block from the last issue…still have to make it, and have it marked in my magazine, but haven’t gotten to it yet!
My favorites were the two issues that held the kitten and puppy paper-pieced quilts. Love them!
Patch Pals
That one is easy. I LOVED Anita’s Arrowhead. I also love It’s A Wrap.
I like the Crystal Cascade. But there are so many. I enjoy the puppy pattern too.
Hands down my favorite from Vol. 2 is Summer Picnic followed by Sparkles Snow Globe from the same issue!
Well this may sound totally lame, but I just signed up for the Quilty Newsletter and am so excited by the idea of making a Pinny Weights pin cushion. It would be my first real paper pieced project ever!
I love all of patterns, but I really like “Fly Away Home.” I love flowers and bird houses. Thank you for having such a wonderful magazine with fantastic patterns.
Penny
I make holiday decorations in 3′s, so I can give one to my daughter, one to my daughter in law, and keep one for myself. One of my favorite wall hangings is Practical Magic from the Sept-Oct 2010 issue. The girls loved them, and I really enjoyed making something so clever and cute.
We have to pick just one! I enjoyed the puppies and kittens
Who can resist lil baby animals:D
Boxes and Bows
My favorite Quiltmaker’s pattern is the “Dozens of Daisies” pattern that you featured in your Back To School Blog Party from last September. I’m really lovin’ your mug, too!!!
Working on I Love My All Stars for my not quite tomboy.
I love Winter Critters by Sonja Callaghan it is one of the project I’m working on right now
Since I am trying to use up my scraps (which seem to multiply like crazy) my favorite blocks are the ones designed by Bonnie Hunter. I have made several of her patterns, just wish they put a bigger dent in the scrap pile!
I was so excited to see the Mug and magazine (extra) that I could hardly wait to get here to post….the best part would be winning them!!!!!
My favorite past QM pattern is from Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks Vol. 3 – Block 283 by Judy Laquidara “Rain Dance” the color possibilities are infinite! I’m also a fan and follow Judy at Patchwork Times http://www.patchworktimes.com/
Fingers, toes, legs and arms crossed …. I hope, I hope, I hope I might win
Happy Quilting!
My favourite is still the ‘All Time Favourites’ issue from way back (1997 or thereabouts) that featured Calico Cats. I still haven’t made it but I loaned that magazine to my friend and she made it as a birthday gift – looks great!
I love the snow globe pattern, so real looking.
Star patch and Mezzanine are both really cool. It’s so cool that the mug has all 100 on it!
the FROGS…………………a classic!!!
Grandma’s Apron, block #334, from QM’s 100 Blocks vol. 4
The perfect pattern for some of those old 36″ wide fabrics, buttons and laces from my grandmother’s stash!
One of my all-time favorite patterns from Quiltmaker is one with the scrappy Uncle Sam. It was one of the very first quilts that I completed.
I love many, but one of my favorites is Let Sleeping Dogs Lie.
One of my favorite blocks from the 100 Blocks series is #148 Simple Celebrations from vol. 2. Thanks for the chance to win.
My most recent ‘favorite’, who can have just one, is the hot air balloon paper-pieced for Project Linus Jan 2012. I’d made one, for an anticipated great-niece, but colors didn’t work, so it will be used as a ‘fund raiser’ at the local Project Linus chapter’s annual luncheon later this month. What’s not to love about this magazine? ! ! !
“Zanzibars” from Sept/Oct’11. Sew beautiful!
I really liked Anita’s Arrowhead pattern!
I love the patch pals. I think it would look cool to take all of them and put them into a quilt.
Love boxes and bows
Lattice Garden! I have the March/April magazine from last year waiting for me to pull fabrics and get started on it!
I love the coffee mug. Can’t wait for the new book to come out. Susan posted a picture of her block on her blog. It is so cute.
Tulip Twist from “Quilts from Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks” Spring 12
I really like the Primrose Patch from the M/J 2011 – but really it is so hard to choose favorites!!
Thank you – love this mug!!
sandyb720 at gmail dot com
In Vol 2 I loved the Upcycle block #168 using selvage strips which I have been saving to do this. I have seen a lot of blocks I like so corners are turned down on the pages for future creativity!!!
Well one I love is the snowflake pattern Denise did last year. Its on my to do list when I get better at peiceing!
Confetti, a cute and easy baby quilt from the March/April 2010 issue.
I love this offer….hope I get one . I really love the shamrock pattern. can see it in lots of different greens.
Early Spring 1990 – Winged Beauty. I only found the pattern sometime after 2004. I traced the block into Electric Quilt so I could paper-piece it.
I love the Bull Run Nine Patch pattern. I think any pattern with piecing and appliqué is usually beautiful!
Block#290 in Volume 3 by Karen Neary.Loved it. I made a sample and it is on my list. Thanks
Single Scoop for Project Linus. Thanks for another chance to win.
I’ve got my eye on Posies and Pinwheels by Nancy Mahoney. I loved (and used) the Pinwheel block from a past 100 Blocks issue, but when alternated with the Posies block, the results are magnificent!
My fave series is the Patchwork Pals, fave individual is Bahama Breeze from May/June 09.
I love the Best Friends block from Volume 4. I love the simplicity of friendship stars and this block gives them a whole new look.
Fire and Ice
thanks for the chance to win
I really like All of the Project Linus quilts, especially the kites and the hot air balloons. Thanks for the chance to win.
I really liked the Sweethearts’ Chain. Thank you for a chance to win this lovely mug!
Oh my! So many to choose from! But I love Americana designs, so Old Glory would have to be one of my top favorites.
I also love anything that Judy Laquidara creates!
Thank you!
Any block that features a feline and I’m hooked
Can’t think of a nicer way to start my day than with a coffee in this sweet mug while browsing all the wonderful blocks.
Winston Ways by Bonnie Hunter!
*Please pick me!* LOL!!!!
A toss up between Baby Bows (Jan-Feb ’11) and the Jack in the Box block Bonnie Hunter did in the same issue. I love how she made 2 seams on the stitch and flip units to make some bonus triangle squares appeal to my hate to waste. Thank you for the chance to win.
I like, Born to Fly, in issue 1. Sew- Easy Butterflies in issue 2. Posy Patch, in issue 3. Last but not least Basket of Love in issue 4. Actually, there are even more. I love, love the block issues.
Mezzanine is one of my favourites that comes to mind.
I love the addicted to scraps, heaven knows I have lots. I also love the baby quilts with the bear and monkey.
I think the “Let Sleeping Dogs Lie” in the Sept/Oct issue is so cute.
I really liked Dreamcatcher…from last fall. And that cup, I really like that cup.
I love ‘Turtle Twirl’ and made it for my granddaughter!
In the spring issue of Quilts from Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks Collector’s Edition pag 50 Lil’ Monkeys take the Bus! This would make for a gift around the holidays…Judith, Texas
I liked the Basket Full of Posies using yo-yos.
Mexican Train!!!! love it!! A family game favorite, and an amazing block!
I think Star Glow has been my favorite so far. I love star blocks and Star Glow just takes it so much farther.
I have made the Tumbler Star from the Vol. 2 Winter 2010. I made blocks for a QOV event and this star was just perfect. And it looks great in red,white and blue.
Don’t look now for sure…
I love the Ice Crystal block.
I really love the Sunblock from vol. 3.
I loved the Sweethearts’ Chain because it was simple patchwork, where most of the other heart patterns were appliqued.
Are you kidding me?? Pick one? There are way too many favorites to name only one!! Thanks for the giveaway!
Still love “Little Red Schoolhouse.” Traditional and wonderful, just like me.
Hard to decide, but winter critters.
Bonnie Hunter’s Winston Ways was a winner for me!
Ice Crystal is my favorite…would LOVE the mug! Thanks for the chance!
Oh – I loved American Beauty by Jo Moury! Thanks!
Christmas Lights by Bonnie of Quiltville. It was a mystery quilt a long and I loved it. I display that quilt every christmas.
Versailles by Chloe Anderson and Colleen Reale was one of my favorites from Vol. 2 – Thank you!
I didnt see it but I love the mug. I just got back to quilting after being sick for many years. I love the mug though and i am sure I would have loved all the blocks!
Well, one pattern on my pile of “to do” is Lattice Garden. I want to make this for myself. Thanks for a chance.
The Patchwork Pals to many of Bonnie Hunter’s … my list of want to do’s is getting longer!
I would love to have a Quiltmakers mug for my morning coffee! Perfect way to begin the day, dreaming of quilting projects. A favorite pattern of mine is Winding Road. Thanks for the chance to win a mug.
So okay may date myself but really like Dutch Dreams by Bea Yurkerwich from the same issue being that I really love Horses like the Winners Circle . pulling out older editions always inspires me in pattern and setting selection.
Rain Dance!
A favorite of mine is Turtle Twirl from Sept/Oct ’08.
There are just so many, but i guess if you want to be picky and i have to choose one, I would have to say Great Ball of Fire. (Sept/Oct 09) This pattern just does it for me. It has foundation piecing amazing eye appeal i just love it!!!!!! Thank you for bring us all these great patterns and thank you for the chance to win the gorgeous mug. Happy Quilting.
What an awesome coffee mug! I would love to win it and the magazine. Will have to check my LQS for the issue.
I like The Pick a peck blocks in the Sept/ Oct 2008 Issue.
Too many to choose but I love flower box garden in the latest issue!
What a cool mug!! Would love to dring my latte from that one
Thanks,
Vickie
Anita’s Arrow is one I have used.
Anita’s Arrowhead is on my to-do list…
I loved the Midnight Flight block by Bonnie Hunter in Quiltmaker 100 Blocks Vol. 4. When you put thes blocks together for a top it is wonderful. Thanks for the giveaways.
Denise Russart’s dog quilt!
There are quite a few patterns I love — but two favorites are: Twist and Twirl (May/June ’09) and Windblown Blossoms (March/April ’10). Thanks very much! Love the magazine! Judy W
I have many favorites and one of them is Sharon’s Roses in volume three.
Art to wake up to.
My favorite QM pattern (that I’d *really* like to make someday) was made from quarter circles and it looked like a cactus. But I need to find which issue it was in.
I cannot remember the name, but it was from years and years ago. The blocks were puppies that were made with three types of black/white fabrics. Black on white, white on black and equal amounts of black and white. I had so much fun picking out the fabrics! I had a watch dog – the fabric was timepieces. Another was a cow dog, using cow spot fabric. I gave it to my husband’s great nephew about 4 years ago.
Chain reaction is on my to do list. I would really love to win the cool mug and magazine. Please pick me Mr. Random Generator.
So hard to pick just one. I guess my new favorite is the Chain Reaction from the March/April 2012 issue of Quiltmaker. I definitely want to make that quilt.
There are so many great patterns. I love Triangle Toss and Ruff Patch. Thanks for another fun giveaway.
Did I tell you that I love a mug filled with coffee?
I don’t have a favorite yet….I’m a brand new quilter and I am just beginning to look at magazines and websites. So many ideas and wonderful projects. I’m just excited to learn something new with each quilt.
I think my favorite is Judy Laquidara’s block in issue 4 called Ozark Cactus – I think?! – since I’m from the Ozarks of Missouri.
Of course, to know for sure, I would have to get up out of my recliner and go search for the name and at 10:15 p.m. I’m just too tired and lazy… lol.
I can’t remember the name of it–and my husband is asleep in the room where I keep my copy!–but it’s from the last 100 blocks issue, and it is the little girls’ dresses and shoes, seen from above. I have it “shortlisted” to make for my best friends, harkening back to our Sunday School days together.
I like all the Project Linus quilts. Haven’t made any yet but have been saving all the issues.
Tulip Twist Block #165 – It was used in the Tulip Twist
Quilt pattern in the “Quilts from the Quiltmaker’s
100 Blocks – Spring 12 Issue. I love that quilt.
Anita’s Arrowhead is awesome as well as anything from Bonnie Hunter. I also made the quilt from several years ago that was designed to be made in school colors with the school initials in the middle. Great in University of Missouri colors!
My newest favourite is Ladder of Success from the May/June 2012 issue – there are SO many possibilities!!! Love that!
Bonnie Hunter’s Christmas Lights mystery.
Oh geez, I’d die and gone to quilting heaven if I could win this cutie mag and mug, I’d be thrilled
, but I know, I’m not alone… For one of the blocks, I’d say the one I just made (last weekend): Radiant Heart (226), I have made a bunch of your blocks, but I’m recalling this one…, it’s just gorgeous!!!!, I love all your blocks but certainly I could make that heart again and again <3 <3 <3
My favorites are always the spring flower blocks. Of course puppies have a special place in my heart to
I made “Flying Fishes” for my dad for Christmas with my own chosen fabrics. It was beautiful! 235 hours later… it was done
“Boxes and Bows” from the November/December, 2011, issue really caught my eye.
I really enjoyed Swirlabout in May/June of 2010.
I really like Toby Lischko’s Stained Glass Star
My favorite quilt was one with 4 Kittens under the covers with their paws on top. Don’t know the name but plan to make it again soon,
What a super hop! I’m enjoying seeing all the great blocks. It’s so hard to pick a past favorite. Boxes & Bows, any block with animals, any block with applique or stars. hehe. It’s impossible to pick just one.
Thank you for a great giveaway and a chance to win.

I love Let Sleeping Dogs Lie.
village sunburst
If I went through my back issues I could probably name dozens. I’m still quilting my Secret Window mystery quilt, and absolutely love how it turned out. I made 5 small wallhangings with the Isabelle block from 100 Blocks Volume 1 for Christmas gifts that year, and they were wonderful too. Plus I taught my 9 and 7 year old boys to sew with the Jungle Boogie block from one of the 100 Blocks issues too (at least I think that’s what the block was called). Thanks for great patterns and a chance to win.
As stitching curves and matching 8 points are not one of my great abilities I’ll have to say that coin collecting is my favourite, as I can adapt this to use my huge stash of leftovers from all my UFO’s especially with the bright colour option, and it will come together quickly.
My to-do list has Boxes and Bows Christmas Quilt from Nov issue 2011. Just love the colors and the way the boxes look lke they could jump right off the quilt. I would love a fill up my cup with a nice seasonal coffee blend and get to work on my Xmas quilt.
One of my first foundation piecing projects was Goldfish. It was in July/Aug 2005 issue then again in the Quitmaker’s Favorites Spring 2009 issue #19. Soooo much fun!!! Just like the Pepperridge Farm Goldfish crackers….try it…you’ll love it!!!
That’s a hard question! I love reproduction fabrics and one of my favourite patterns is Around Town by Dawna Baker, but then I have five of the patterns in the March/April 2012 magazine marked for making – lol – I haven’t got enough to do! Bonnie Hunter was showing her mug on her blog and I admired it there!
May/June 2012 issue no. 145 Page 26-30 I like the quilt Batter Up in an alternate fabric set similar to the color option Monsters in My Room. While not a sports fan, the geometrical design of this quilt is one that draws me to it. It’s one of my dog-eared quilt patterns in QM.
I like Lovebird and Chain Reaction!
Bull Run Nine Patch is a favorite for me.
I enjoy all of Bonnie Hunter’s blocks, but the Ladder of Success pattern, in the last issue, appealed to me so much that I pulled fabrics and have it started. Who can guess, when it will be finished?!!
I love star crossed. I would choose brown, pink, white and brown/pink combo..
I love to additional blogs to view the patterns, print and add to my notebook of new projects..
I live in Lancaster, Texas and have a unique town square. Think it would be nice to have quilters meet on the square and show their projects.
I love the “Balancing act”, in issue 4.
It is such cute and simple block to add to charity quilts.
Debbie
My favorite block is Sunday Rose by Chris Hoover, Block #325 from Volume 4. You can use so many shades of reds, pinks and other colors! I can’t wait for Volume 5!!
I love the bonnie hunter blocks.. scrappy is best..
Besides every block in the Addicted to Scraps articles, I loved the Christmas Lights mystery – I’ve made 3 of those since the mystery came out and each recipient absolutely loves their quilt. I’ve also enjoyed making the Anita’s Arrowhead quilt – that one is my own cuddle quilt.
I don’t know the name of the block but Camille Roskelley’s block from 2009; thanks for chance to win!
I would love one of these mugs to use on my Citrus Cooler table topper That you featured in the November/December, 2010 issue of your fabulous magazine!
I liked the Hip to be Squared quilt. Made up in bright colors, it’s perfect for kids. Thanks.
Tulip Twist! thanks for the chance! blaukat@hickorytech.net
I really like the “Just Chillin’” (number 397) penguin in Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks volume 4 (the purple one).
I have made placemats using #26 “Twirling Star” volume 1 and I am staring a quilt for my son featuring #276 “Chained Star” volume 3.
I loved bonnie hunters block, but honestly Idont know if a lot of the others dont try hers.
i used hers and others in my kitchen valances and table runner.

The quilt has a range of azuis.eu would like to win to challenge myself to do the 100 blocks, it works out to at least 10 quilts with some projects. Thank you. tiacarminhapezzuto@gmail.com
