you guys give such inspirition with all the pictures you share!
just loved the dog house since my house is a dog house more or less. Wish I had more time to look at more of them.
cool beans! Quilting and coffee, perfect combo!
I love how a quilt block is seen differently by different people, the way color is used, the way texture is introduced. I guess that is what makes an individual, well individual – and unique! Thanks for the chance.
I enjoy visiting their blogs and seeing different types of quilts. I’m a traditional type, patchwork, but I still like to see the modern quilts and applique quilts. Who knows what I might want to do later? They are all inspirational!
I love quilting, and I love drinking coffee. That mug was made for me!!
I love seeing all the different blocks. Makes me want to try them all
I liked the wonderful varity of color ideas especially the batiks.
Would enjoy my coffee in that fancy 100 block mug.Thank you.
I LOVE finding new designers I haven’t seen before or revisiting my favorites. =) Keep ‘em comin’ =)

I always find great insperation and ideas for my quilts. I love the pictures, nothing helps better then having to ap picture to campare to!!!! I love all the little tips and help that you guys always give!!!!
I love the book and the cup. Great inspriration
I love all the different blocks, colors and projects!! It motivates me to quilt more!
I love seeing & learning new ideas for quilts. I also love seeing the colors & fabrics people put together. That is one of the many things I love about making quilts.
I have enjoyed (so far) the tip on the russian nesting doll pattern, and how they drew the face on with the glad press and seal… I thought that was too clever, and allows you to get it on there “right” before taking a needle to it, then actually doing it right and tear away the plastic wrap. I’m LOVING all the blocks AND the great giveaways!!!
Love seeing all the different blocks made up in different fabric, and I want one of these mugs!!!!
I love to sit and look at the 100 block series over and over again. Having a mug to match would be wonderful!
i can not say enough about this site, and all your followers!!! what would us quiltwers do without YOU! thks!
I have visited several of the blogs, and they all have so much info! I have saved several to my favorites, and I am determined to learn applique this year!
I love the feelings I get when I look at the different designs.They make me want to try quilting but I an not sure enough of my skill, that it will even turn out.
What inspiration to have with my morning coffee!
oops…what I have enjoyed ~ inspiration, giggles, pinning, getting my creative juices flowing again!
I would love to win the Mug… I can buy the magazine, although winning it would be pretty cool too!
Thanks for the opportunity to win!

I would love to win this mug for my hot teat. Thanks for the chance. I’m enjoying the hop!
I would love a new coffee mug, especially a quilty one! I love the creative blogs that help you make use of things you already have – scrap quilts, recycling itmes to repurpose them, etc.
I particulary liked discovering new designers. The mug is uber cool.
I love seeing all the different ideas of quilts. It’s so fun to see the different colors and fabric patterns people pick out. That is one of the many reasons. I love about making a quilt.
I have really enjoyed seeing all the creativity from each person. I really like it when each one shows the block in different colors or in a quilt. So much fun.
Lots of inspiration going around….I am sewing the day away
I love going to blogs and I am inspired by all the creative thoughts generated by so many creative and talented people! Helps me to keep those artistic juices flowing!
I love how you always are on top of the curve of popular projects. It seems a topic is a buzz and all of a sudden here is an article or special pattern sample.
I enjoyed seeing how the blocks were used in quilt designs as well as tips (like using Glad Seal and Press for embroidery designs) and mini tutorials on value and color.
Thank you for all The inspiraTions
I’ve always like Quiltmaker for the new ideas, the patterns and great instructions and the articles about other quilters. Never have I found an issue that I couldn’t mark with a sticky note a pattern that caught my eye to make. Now just to retire and get started!!!!
Wow! Tough to choose, but right now I’m loving Sew Many Roads as she inspired me with her block . . . Lovely beadwork! Thanks for such a great giveaway!
Inspired by what you write all of the time. Blocks are a fun way to put together people with ideas! Kari
The blogs give me lots of ideas and inspiration. The ideas make me want to go quilt!
I love seeing all the different blocks. Makes me want to try them all. I would love to win the Mug, it´s cool.
I really liked the large flower Eileen Fowler had on her quilty page the other day. I think that would be great super-imposed on a plain strippy quilt.
I always learn so much from the blogs and get great ideas!
What a fun giveaway! I’ve enjoyed the sneak peeks at the blocks.
I’m finally home from the hospital after 30+ days, your daily info was definately an inspiration to keep me going until I can get back to my sewing machine!
A mug would be a wonderful treat..sooo much inspiration!!
I love this magazine…..is the BEST!!!!
That mug is special–I’d love to win one!
That mug has tempted me to covet. Hope to win…thanks.
I love how they use the blocks in a whole quilt, or give tips on using different products in the sewing room. Oh, hot chocolate or tea, please! No coffee here, but I’m sure the mug doesn’t mind!
quilting and coffee = how awesome is that !
I am pretty new to the quilting world and I have loved seeing all colors that are put together. Colors I would have never dreamed of!
I enjoyed being introduced to some new to me designers and their blogs!
I love browsing through the quilts and getting inspiration from them. Just like the mug instead of using it for coffee I would use it for tea or hot chocolate.
quilty coffee + fabric = creative quilts…need i say more…love to quilt!
I very much enjoy reading blogs that show finished projects, and of course work in progress pictures! they are the best! a lot of inspiration!
I definitely do more quilting now that I see how others are doing! .. .
I would really love a chance to win this awesome book and mug!
Thank you!
Too many blocks and too little time
I love the My Friendly Neighbors Table Topper that Kimberly Jolly made from her Seasonal Little Gatherings block in the 100 Blocks Magazine Volume 5. She is so talented! Thanks for a great giveaway!
I love the blogs. Coming from a small community I don’t have too many people to share ideas with and these ladies are awesome!
looking forward to the new collection
I enjoyed seeing one of my own quilts featured on a blog :^)
I love your magazine. The projects are very do~able! Good luck to everyone who enters the contest.
I love the inspiration I get from reading blogs. Different colours, patterns, etc. are great creative motivation for me.
Once again, a dynamite issue, all the blocks are superb.
I get lots of inspirations from the blogs. I enjoy the color combos and patterns. Gets me itching to get started on something new. Also could use a new mug. just broke my favorite one. only I don’t drink coffee I drink lots of tea.
Love browsing through the blogs and seeing the work in progress along with the finished project! Seeing how someone else interprets the blocks and fabric colors is so inspirational!
I love your magazine and coffee, so i should win this!!
Certainly one of the things I have enjoyed is the opportunity to win this issue and mug!!! Oh, how I hope that I win!!! I also enjoy every day of the Blog Hop – I find so many new blogs to follow and make really nice new friends! =^..^=
Hi, my name is Valeria, I live in Santos, Brazil, I bought this magazine, but has not yet arrived, you could send me the mug as a surprise, because my birthday is on May 6. It would be a nice gift!
Several of the designers showed their blocks in alternative fabrics lines. That’s something I really like to see.
The blogs are so inspiring! I would love to drink my morning coffee from this mug, while perusing the magazine!
I am a new quilter. Only been making quilts for about 1 1/2 years. But boy oh boy am I addicted. I enjoy you magazine especially with the tip sections. Yay. Thanks.
I love the blog.
I love getting inspiration from the blogs. Sometimes the smallest thing will spur my creative juices or help me over a problem. Good luck everyone!
MMMM, quilting and hot tea, talk about relaxing!!!!
If I don’t win, I have found SO many cool blogs to follow and I got a sneak preview of all the cool blocks in the magazine. THanks so much. It’s been a lot of fun.
I love finding new blogs full of ideas and inspiration. I have all the previous 100 blocks issues but I know issue 5 will be full of new and exciting blocks and design possibilities!
The best part of the blogs I have seen so far is seeing the process… the different color choices, the block in a finished project, the thought process…. and getting to explore some new blogs and new bloggers.
I think I have every issue of this special magazine. I really enjoy seeing what my friends come up with and what is out there being made. I like to blog hop and then go to the magazine to see new ideas I might be interested in.
I really liked the little applique bird block. Thanks!
What could be better – a Quilting mug full of coffee and Quilting. There were a lot of good blogs but All About Applique caught my eye because of the cat and display of the quilts out in the garden.
Love all the blogs, really gets me inspired and wishing i could do everything i see and hear about. The mug is great, and would be an addition to my quilting mugs!!
I am so inspired! Great ideas and I would love to sip coffee from that mug. It would be like carrying a mini version of the magazine to look at every day!
I can’t wait to see the issue, I have all the others. I really enoy it when the designers show either how they developed their block or show their block in a few layout / color options. It really gets the creative juices flowing. Thanks again.
Judy

I loved the variety between all the designers–and some very cool designs in there!
Love the kitty in the basket block, going to make that one for sure. All the designers are so interesting! Thanks!
I enjoyed the variations the designers shared.
Love It!
The blog tour helps me learn about myself as a quilter and remember my experiences. I also learn lots of new techniques and tips and tricks. It encourages me to try new things. I also learn that I’m not alone out there, and I can make new friends that enjoy my same hobby and passion! Thank you for all you do!
This is my first blog tour. I am loving the ideas and inspiration!
Thanks for posting some pictures of some of the blocks as a preview for those of us who can’t wait to see the newest book of blocks. I enjoyed the looking at the blogs, everyone has something different to teach and inspire. I particularly liked the paper pieced dolls with their faces embroidered on the plastic, I shall have to try that! Would love to win a mug and a copy of the magazine♥
I always love the blogs with the giveaways but every once in a while someone posts something that really touches my heart. That happened this week and I learned a little something about human nature and about myself.
Love all the ideas … sparks my own creativity into gear each day! And, yes, I do start each morning with a cup of coffee and catch up on my quilting news thru my laptop (around 5-5:30 am each day for about an hour before I head into morning routine, then to my “create” room!).
It’s very difficult to single out a single blog. I have enjoyed every single one I’ve opened. I enjoyed the stories, articles, tips and the photographs … Oh the photographs I love them. They are inspiring. For a novice like me it sets the bar to what I can still do and achieve.
Love seeing the blocks and all the different fabrics. Can’t wait to get Volume 5.
What I am enjoying the most is that all the bloggers are so enthused about creating, and have such upbeat, positive attitudes. Sharing that kind of energy is just as worthwhile as sharing their creations and projects.
I like the tips, interesting ideas, and giveaways on blogs.
There is so much inspiration. That’s what I love about blog tours. New blogs to follow and new fabric lines to see. The blocks are amazing! And then a lovely surprise! Fingers crossed to win the mug. Thanks
Quilting and coffee, favorites of mine. I visited all the blogs, wow inspiration, tutorials, gorgeous fabric, tips, color, many I am now following.
Aside from the fact that I just love quilting websites, I always enjoy learning something new. The tip on using glue with applique to do small, fussy bits was stellar.
love all the choices ,and colors, so much inspiration, so little time…
Love everything you all do!!
Coffee and quilting…two of my favorite things!!
Would love the mug for my tea…am really anxious to get my hands on the new book!
Coffee and ideas to be creative is great! Love to win the mug so I can be more creative like all the bloggers are at inspiring me.
I enjoy seeing the possibilities in every block. Thanks for the variety and creativity in your blogs.
I love all the ideas going on in the blogs…. my mind is full of the possibilities!!! Thanks for SUCH INSPIRATION!!!!
I love seeing all the different blocks!
A NEAT TOUR! LEARNING LOTS OF NEW IDEAS FROM THESE GREAT QUILTERS! I’D LOVE TO WIN ONE OF THESE MUGS! THANKS FOR SHARING!
So many beautiful things in the blogs~ especially loved the “Prairie Dirty” fabs by Pam buda and would love to see and touch them in person! Thanks for the chance to win and for sharing all the wonderful blogs.
Definately two of my favorite things, coffee and quilting!
So far I love finding tips. The tip about using Glad Press and Seal was wonderful.
I like seeing the colors and patterns different people choose. I start my day by visiting quilting blogs and nearly always see something beautiful or something I wished I’d thought of or something I would like to tweak to make it mine.
Coffee and Quilting, what else could you need
I enjoy reading all the projects that people have worked on for the last month, including how much sewing everyone is able to do.
What an awesome giveaway! Quilting and coffee, two of my favorite things!! Thanks! Good luck, Everyone!!
What I loved about the blogs is the new blocks posted, gave me inspiration and I learned a few new tips! That mug would be great to bring to my guild meetings and retreats…I’d be the envy of all my fellow quilters!
I liked seeing the blocks made up in different colorways.
I love seeing all the inspiration across so many quilting styles! Thanks for all the fun
Winning this mug would be next to winning the lottery to me!!
I love seeing the blocks made up into actual projects. The talent of the designers is amazing.
I like the stories behind the blocks before the big reveal. Thanks so much for the chance to win! Love the issues and the mug!
I love seeing all the new blocks coming soon and who couldn’t use just one more mug??
I love seeing all the new blocks for inspiration. I would love to win the coffee cup and take it to the next guild sewing day to show everyone.
I loved blog jumping, so many things I saw that I wanted to try.
Can’t wait to make some of the blocks from the magazine!
I love the 100 Block issues. The blocks work great for block challenges and to learn new techniques. Can hardly wait for volume 5. Could enjoy it more with this mug filled with green tea!
Wow~! I really enjoyed wandering through the different sites. So much eye candy! Thanks for the chance to win. Can’t wait to see the next volume!
I love to see what everyone is working on. It all is such inspiration.
I love meeting the designers and learning a bit about their personal lives.
I loved the new fabric line one of the bloggers is introducing, “Heart of the Prairie”. The block she designed is terrific. I’m just amazed at all the creativity and how I can benefit from it all! Thanks for sharing!!!!!
I have enjoyed the building anticipation and excitement of just seeing glimpses of what is to come in this edition…from what I have seen, this is the best one yet! I love how open and encouraging the designers have been sharing their ideas and tips, once again a Great Inspiration! Thanks!!!
It was really fun to see the quilts made out of the different blocks on the fabric companies’ blogs using new fabric lines. So many talented quilters!
I am new to quilting and this site is an inspiration to me to get going and learn how to quilt. I have sewn since I was in high school and am ready to start a new direction in my life and that I can express myself with different fabric combinations. The coffee cup would just be an added inspiration by looking at the blocks on it and trying to make my own.
I have enjoyed reading about the creative process that the designers used to make their blocks.
I am enjoying seeing the way different designers can sometimes take the same fabric line and have two so vastly different interpretations.
I’ve enjoyed meeting new designers and seeing their blogs. I always find another blog to follow.
How fun to use the mug while making a new quilt block.
I love the way two designers can take the same fabric line and come up with two vastly different interpretations. There is so much talent for us to see.
Can’t wait for the magazine! and would love the coffee cup!
I’m new to quilting so seeing all these blocks is amazing. It’s kind of making me want to get ALL of the 100 Blocks editions.
I am *loving* all of the pics on all the blogs! And I love coming to Quilty Pleasures and seeing what you will show next!
Im recovering from a heart operation and Im teaching myself to quilt I would love to have the mug for my tea and the chance to keep learning I love your site.
So many choices. So little time. Love watching what is next.
Love your magazines-have subscribed for years! Currently making the monkey quilt in the new issue of Quiltmaker – so cute! Have all the other issues of the 100 block series and would LOVE to have the new one – a coffee cup would be the icing on the cake!!!!!
I love to see how the quilt blocks are used in a quilt. Each designer has their own style which is fun to see on their blogs.
Wow, what a super giveaway!!!!!!
Loving looking at all the creativity … and would love that TEA mug, too!!
how exciting…looking forward to the blog tour.
happyhomequilting.blogspot.com
I LOVE to just look at all the Post that are posted I Never skip over any,Just a Beginner,But I still Love Looking at the Pieces & how they are put together, Gives me Hope That I too can learn to do some of these. Love 100 Blocks.
I have truly enjoyed every blog I’ve visited! The talent and creativity inspires me to get to my machine! Would love to own a special mug to inspire me every day! Thanks for the chance!
I am enjoying meeting all these designers and getting acquainted with them through their blogs! Oh, how I would love to have one of those mugs! I am so particular about the mugs I drink my coffee from-they have to be a “certain type” (which translates to quilty by the way) and this mug definitely fits the bill!!! Oh how I want one!!
I love reading Bonnie’s blog and how to make the best out of what scraps we have down in our stash. I have used several of her ideas to incorporate into a quilt and look forward to many more! Scrap squads rock! BUT…they rock even better when combining them with 100 Quilt Blocks books! It’s like a 2 for 1 sale everyday. Having the mug (and the book) would be a double treat!
What a great give away! Hope I win!
I love looking at the fun, bright and young fabric! The blocks are also giving me inspiration to try something new. It’s also good to see that even 100 blocks designers need to unpick once in a while LOL!
Sew many blocks….sew little time.
I love seeing all the fabric chioces for the diferent blocks. I also always have a mug of coffee or tea while quilting . I ‘d love to see that mug on my mug rug!
I have enjoyed reading the blogs for tips on the blocks. A mug would be the best thing to go with all my blog reading.
What’s not to like about the blogs!
Fresh ideas, smiles, encouragement just to name a few.
What I don’t like about them is I can’t keep up with them and the quilting.
I always enjoy to get to know( new to me) designerblogs as: sew many roads and Irish chain. It is great fun, thanks!
I love the designs! What a great way to start the day….coffee and a mug that gets me inspired! Thanks for the opportunity!
I really enjoy seeing the blocks made up in several different fabrics.
Thanks for the inspiration. Keep it coming.
Oh my goodness, I love these books. They keep me occupied for hours conjuring up ideas for new quilts, table cloths, and wall hangings. Having the mug for a cup of coffee whilst paging through the book would be fantastic!
The thing I like the most is just seeing all the blogs and looking at all the talent out there! It inspires me…
I have a mug collection and none that are quilting based… would love to add it! Sure enjoyed all the sites and all the interesting blocks!!
I am new to Quilting, and really enjoying all the information I can get. To win
the Coffee Mug would be a Great Bonus!
I am so amazed at the creativity of the 100 Blocks magazines. And the designers have not let us down this time around. The blogs have really enticed us to see this new edition.
enjoy all the pictures and the ideas
I would love a quilting mug, and even more the vol 5 100 block magazine, it is fun to look at the blogs and see the all the ways they used the blocks. Thanks
I love to see all of the quilting that long arm quilters do on beautiful quilts! It sure helps when you must teach yourself how to do long arm quilting!
Would love the coffee mug! I spent a lot of time on the blogs just looking around at all the differnt blocks.
I am so inspired by the various uses of color, hue, and value. I also like the blocks that are “cutsey” as inspiration for the children in my neighborhood.
I love the tip that “Katie@swim,bike,quilt” gave about taking a black & white photo of your quilt block to determine value. Great idea!
I learned today that beads can be sewn on using the sewing machine! I am not a big hand sew-er, so this is hugely revealing for me!
I have so much fun visiting all the blogs to see what each blogger is doing and get inspiration. Can’t wait to get my hands on Vol 5 and winning the mug would be the perfect way to start each morning.
so many wonderful ideas and the creativity of these amazing people always inspires me. p.s. I do need a new coffee mug and this one would be a wonderful way to start each day.
so exciting to have such fun giveaways. I enjoy all of the variety of quilters and their blogs. The assortment of quilts is my favorite part.
I like the tips that are shared – especially on using press and seal to mark embroidery. I also like seeing blogs that I have not seen before. Very inspirational.
coffee and quilting…great combination.
I enjoyed seeing the dogs at the doghouse since I am a dog person. The kitty blocks did nothing for me, sorry!
I love your magazine, and I can’t wait for the 100 Blocks book to come out…Green Fairy Quilts is one of my very favorite blogs, and I just adore her quilting. I really want to make her block. I have been a big fan of hers for quite a while. I would sure love to win that mug and a copy of the 100 Blocks Issue….how about it!!
I can hardly wait to show off the Mug at work! Maybe a MugMat too of I won some fabric! But the book would be sensational! Wow!
I enjoyed reading my favorite bloggers block being in the 100 blocks volume 5. I’m so excited for her to have her work in Quiltmaker. I can’t wait to see the block she made.
I lovely mug to go with the magazine would be a great addition in y sewing room
I liked seeing the blocks made from several different fabric choices. I also liked seeing the block used in a quilt. Also like the wallpaper roller for pressing the crease when finding the center of the fabric for applique.
It goes without saying that it is so much fun to see the different blocks. But it was also fun to visit blogs I’ve never seen before. I fell in love with Whistlepig Creek because she obviously loves BRIGHTS and I do, too. I love the background on her blog and her use of colors is very exciting to me.
Thank you for the generous giveaway!
I would love to win the coveted mug and the magazine. I’ve enjoyed seeing the blocks. Thanks for the giveaway.
Great combo – coffee n new quilting book. Would love to learn more quilting patterns n this book would be perfect. Pick me!
i loved visiting all the blogs and most of all some had tutorials on how to make them! very helpful for us new quilters!
i loved seeing all the blocks and how tips on how to make the same block take on a different look by the different borders and colors used. thank you!

I love seeing everyone’s finishes … blocks, tops, or actual ta-dah finishes! It all inspires me.
Love the mug!
I’m over my head in end of the university semester grading. Quilting time will happen as soon as I finish giving finals and grading them. I can’t wait!
I find myself sitting at the computer for hours at a time trying to take in all the wonderful patterns and super helpful tips. I’m just getting back into quilting after stabilizing my health. I’m delighted with all the web pages and blogs that weren’t there when I first started. It’s so exciting!!! Having a cup of TEA while browsing Vol 5 would be outstanding!
I always look forward to your block issue and the chance to visit all the blogs. Seeing all the fabric and color combos provides so much inspiration.
I love seeing how all the designers choose their fabrics, come up with their blocks, and then how they interpret them into quilts or other projects!
And I’d love a 100 block mug to drink my coffee while I peruse the magazine!
The one thing i have enjoyed the most is the designers who show there blocks in different ways repeated for a quilt. That really makes me want to get into the book and get making blocks.
I missed out on being a block tester. I would LOVE to win this drawing and celebrate quilts with every mug of tea!
I can’t think of a better way to start the day than to enjoy a cup of coffee from this beautiful mug with an inspiring design, choosing a block to sew!
I love the blogs, some people are so inventive and then share their patterns and methods!
I’ve loved looking at all the different versions of the same block. Lots of variety in fabrics. Something for everyone to love.
I want to make ALL the blocks! Each one is beautiful!
I enjoy seeing how the blocks look in various settings. I love the mug.
I’ve really enjoyed reading about the inspiration behind the blocks. Sometimes the block cand tell a story!!
Can’t think of a better way to start the day! I would love to win this surprise give away!
I love looking at all the blocks, now if I could just win that magazine I’d make some!
I loved seeing all the blocks and quilts that were created on each blog. Each person had one of a kind and it was fun looking at their designs and what they had accomplished. I found a lot of blogs that I want to visit again. That is the fun part of a blog hop- getting to meet new people and new places to visit. Thanks so much for putting this together and for all the great stuff you’re giving away!
I love the dragon block! love your magazine and the mug would be great to have to compare all the blocks I want to make!
Every single block is wonderful! Having a fantastic time and would love to win a copy – and a mug of course. Thanks.
I am enjoying getting to “know” the designers. Thanks for the chance to win the mug and book.
The inspiration and creativity from all of the blocks encourages me to be a better quilter!
I have loved so many of the new ones to me. I can’t get over how many wonderful quilters there are out there. I love these quilt block issues. The ideas and inspirations are unbelieveable. Keep up the good work!!
I love discovering the designers are real people!
I really enjoy seeing how diversely creative all these good folks are! It blows my mind and inspires me, too!
I have really enjoyed learning the techniques many of the designers used for their blocks, as well as seeing many of the blocks used in projects.
Would love to win your magazine and mug-have all the previous issues and have used several blocks. Thanks
I love seeing the teaser previews of the blocks in your special issue. I cannot wait to get my copy!!!
What better way to start the day than Earl Grey tea in a quilty mug, planning a new quilt from Volume 5!
I love blog tours! I get to see new blocks for inspiration and meet talented designers. …and mugs–I love mugs!
What did I like????? Every single thing!!!!!!
What a wonderful combo!!! Would totally love to drink my coffee from a “quilt block” mug! Woohhoooo! thank you for such a wonderful giveaway!
I am really enjoying seeing the blocks made into quilts. I sometimes have difficulty visualizing this when looking at a single block. Also, I’m loving the tutorials some designers are posting. It’s great to get their tips on assembling the patterns!
Each issue of the 100 Blocks magazine inspires me even more. The designers selected for each issue are very clever in being able to come up with new designs. I’ve been a huge fan from the first issue and can’t wait to see issue niumber 5. Please enter me in the contest for the mug and issue 5.
I always enjoy the different blocks – I’m often more enthusiatic about trying a new block if I’ve seen it in the 100 Blocks edition; and if there are sneak peeks at new fabric lines, it’s ever so much better!
Just about every quilter in the blog tour has something personal on their blogs, not just the quilty things. It’s fun to get to know the person behind the designs.
What a way to spend breakfast – using a 100 blocks mug and dreaming about what you are going to create that day!!
I enjoy all the variety in the various blogs–very inspirational!
The creativity is astounding. Coffee has GOT to taste better in this beautiful mug. And it would inspire you every day.
It is such an honor to be chosen for your special issue…and you can sense the enthusiasm in each blog. I love the various examples and how the blocks would look in a full quilt. The blogs make me want to make them all!!
The creativity! It is awesome to see how individual quilting is…something there for everyone!
I like seeing the block made/mocked up into a quilt as well as seeing blocks made in different colors. Thanks for the chance at your giveaway.
I love the mug! I’m busy right now and admittedly I may have more time for drinking coffee and looking a quilts than actually making one for now! But someday……
Nothing more exciting than a mug like this while breezing through the blocks in book form. WOW I am excited. Kudos to whomever wins. Not coveting at all.
Love the mug along with the volume of 100 Blocks!
I love visiting the different blog sites and getting inspired!
I love seeing all the new blocks and picking out the ones I want to try. Thanks for the give a way!
Love the blocks and links each day to the blogs….
Great fun to read all the blogs!
I love all the blogs; such fun to see the blocks ahead of the scheduled release. I also love mugs – this one would be great for my collection.
Love to see new blogs about quilting, and would definitely love the mug!
Oh my, I’d love to win this cutie, maybe I could get it for my birthday, since I’m a mug collector, I’d be thrilled to have one along with the wonderful magazine, I’m so in love <3, I'm enjoying to see the blocks from this issue, it's getting better every time!!!, I can't say just one block, because I have my eyes peeled, but the one from Sue Marsh, it's one of my faves, it's so cute <3 <3 <3
…..Mmmmmm….to enjoy my Blueberry flavored coffee in the “Blocks Mug”…BLISS!!!!
The best part of quilting blogs is the absolute joy of quilting that the authors have and pass on to everyone who reads their posts! Some are funny, some instructional, but all pass on the love of quilting. Thanks!
I have enjoyed seeing all the wonderful blocks, but what I especially like is when a designer shows the block done in more than one colorway or shows the blocks combined in a completed project. My favorite example is Celine Perkins’ tabletopper done in two different versions. The black one is stunning!
I really like the Circle Of Friends block.
I’m supervised by all the new pieced blocks that people are coming up with! It is inspirational!
I LOVE going through these blocks. My imagination goes wild at the possibilities!
I love blog hopping. It is alwsys exciting finding a new blog. Free patterns are fun and I love seeing all the great ideas.
I think I have enjoyed all the blogs, but, particularly the explanations of methods — this whole thing is fun — thank you!
Can’t wait for Vol5! I’m on pins and needles!
I’ve been looking for the perfect block, and I found it in Angel Pingel’s lovely mermaid block. No, I’m not using mermaids, but that is a very versatile block!
Ooh, ooh ooh my THE Mug (sigh). I loved that I found at least 3 or 4 new blogs to add to my reader. The designers are giving so much great info. with settings, colors and ideas. Really wonderful!
I keep hoping that I will someday have time to do all the quilting that I want to do . . . and can always use more block ideas.
Thor makes me smile, the flowers are so pretty, the simple designs create comples secondary designs when made into a quilt and all of the blocks just make me want to sew.
This mug would be a treasure to have beside me as I sew.
I like seeing the different blocks people come up with on their own and learning about the different quilters which inspires me to keep sewing.
I love all the different styles of the blocks in this volume and so many creative way to use them thank you
These blogs inspire me.
Thanks for the chance to win
Coffee and Quilting !! Perfect. I enjoy the Blog as it inspires me,it teaches me new things, also to see how others might see the block or Quilt.
I love this idea of seeing so many beautiful designs all on my computer. It is certainly more cost effective than buying gas to drive hundreds of miles! (and I can stay in my jammies)
Love the different types of blocks! I really enjoy applique, so I was particularly interested in those. Would love to have the book and matching mug for my quilting shed!
I love looking at the blogs for ideas and inspiration. Also, to see all the great work & creativity that is out there.
There is so much to look at I could spend all my time just wondering through the blogs for all the incredible ideas and blocks. I try to get some time sewing every couple days at least. I guess I have become a blogaholic and ofcourse its a given that I love the quilting.
A wonderful way to experience what other quilters are thinking and creating–and enjoying new blog posts with a “quilty” coffee — who could ask for more.
Love the mug! I am amazed at all the different types of blogs, blocks and creative people out in Blogland! I am ready for some quilting magic.
I have the first 4 issues and can’t wait to get the new one after seeing some of the blocks
Have the first 4 and can’t wait to get #5 after seeing the blocks posted on the blogs
I am really enjoying Bonnie Hunter’s Blog with Quiltville. I have just recently discovered her blog, and it’s the ONLY blog I subscribe to. I have even read into the archives to see what I have missed. Total fun and fascination.
last friday i got my first ‘clue’ for a mystery quilt done by hearther spence designs … my first mystery quilt! i am eagerly awaiting the next clue on friday. it would be nice to win a 100 blocks mug for my craft room … thanx for the opportunit to win one.
I really like meeting new designers so it keeps my quilting fresh and alive!
I can’t wait to get the latest issue of 100 Blocks !! I missed out on #4, three stores in our area sold out of it. I will be checking tomorrow for # 5 Applique is my favorite quilting technique and a cup of coffee in that mug would be soooooooooooo inspirational Also a great Bd / Mother’s Day gift to me,lol
Something I have enjoyed is looking at not just the blocks, quilts, but the different blogs. I found a ad that lead my to the blog of a 96 year old sewist, that was really neat. I was inspired and wanted to start trying some of these blocks but I was to busy reading. Ah, I really enjoyed myself. Would love the coffee mugs, I like to collect them. Thank you for the giveaways! Pick me! Pick me!
I love how each blog has a completely different ‘feel’ or “touch”. I love them ALL!
I am new to reading blogs, lots to learn. But oh my such great stuff! I am absolutely blown away by Artisania. And I am so happy to find the Clothesline Quilter, so much inspiration for reproduction work!
Oh I would love to be drinking my tea and reading Vol. 5. Last year was my first Quiltmaker’s 100 Blog Hop and couldn’t wait for this year’s. I’m loving all the variety in the different blocks. It’s so amazing and inspiring to see what all these talented designers have created. I also love that I find new blogs of awesome people to follow.
Thank you for a super giveaway and a chance to win.

I really enjoyed the designers who gave optional colorways for their blocks ande showed how they might look as a whole quilt. Special kudos for those who provided tutorials on how their blocks were constructed.
I love the 4 seasons, just beautiful!
I just love looking at all the blocks; so much inspiration!
I particularly enjoyed visiting Sandi Irish’s blog. She’s got a shamrock that is not applique! That means a shamrock I can make! I don’t do applique.
I have thoroughly enjoyed every site I have gone to. The blocks are so inspirational and so are the designers. I would love the coffee mug as I often have a cup of coffee in my sewing room while I am working.
What fun I’m just getting into the “Blogging” What better way than with my fav past time-QUILTING.
All your sites are to die for. Having a coffee mug and browsing would just be sublime
I am loving getting to see some new to me designers! What a cool mug.
I love when the makers of these great blocks show them using different color combinations….sometimes seeing them in different choices makes me love them instead of ah they are okay
I am learning soooo much from you guys. As a new quilter every block is a new adventure and I keep exploring and having fun. There is an extremely endless amount of talent being shared. Thanks and keep up the good work.
What fun…..I am always drinking coffee in AM as I read facebook updates at 6am.
Hi: I cannot fathom the talent that these people have and love to share. It is inspiring, when my inspiration seems to dwindle just have to read the blogs and then I get rejuvinated again. Thanks, and love the mug!
I love it when the designers have given you different layouts of the same block, or different color combo possibilities such as Melissa at HappyQuiltingMelissa or Carolyn with her StarGlow block. I also love peeking at the posts before the blog hop post to see what everyone is working on….. I guess since I’m still sorting out time management with the 4 yr old’s schedule, I’m living vicariously through others and seeing what they are creating. I may be still “sorting out time management” when he’s 24….hehehe… Thank you for the blog hop….Been loving it!!!
I love it! I want it! Thanks for the chance!!
I love being made aware of some new designers I might not have discovered. Thanks for a fun tour.
I liked visiting over at Quilting With Rabbits, that blog is so beautiful and peaceful.
Tea cups always go with warm and fluffy quilts.
I am always inspired by the creativity of all the blog owners – they come up with things that I would never have thought to try.
There’s nothing like these blog tours to get the creative juices going. I just love to see what others are doing with fabrics, colors, blocks and the quilts they are making. It’s awesome!
Enjoying all the blocks I have seen so far, but the cat block stands out to me. Sorry
can’t remember whose blog it was on. Thanks for the chance to win the mug.
I love discovering new blogs!
It would be a PERFECT cup to take to a guild meeting or retreat! I’d love to be able to do that.
It’s so much fun to see all the wonderful quilt block designs and to see all the beautiful quilt designs that can be created from the blocks.
So much inspiration, so little time!!
I love the blog tour for a chance to get to know the designers a little. Even when a block isn’t really my style, I still enjoy reading about the inspiration behind the block. Thanks for a great quilty week!
I’ve found a number of sites I want to visit again -and been introduced to new fabric designers… thank you
Enjoying the diversity of blogs and blocks.
