    Hi Karen!
    My current favorites are the Stairstep patterns and the most current One Block pattern. These are going to be used a lot with our quilt ministry this year! I love the graphic punch and the simplicity that will encourage our new quilters.

    Many blessings to You this year!

    I like your selvage patterns and your upcycle pattern. I like the way you use fabric that other people throw away. To me, that is environmentally responsible quilting.

    I am working on a stacks baby quilt. I like your quilts because they are a little off the wall, if you know what I mean!

    I would love some upctpycle projects. I have a lot of wonderdul shirts and dresses I got from the 99 cent rack at the Purple Cow. That is a goodwill type place in my neighborhood. Stuff they can't sell goes to the White Cow rack for 99 cents.

    I have gotten some great stuff, and my hubby now looks thru the haul to see of he fits any shirts. I don't tell him these were the lowest of the goodwill pile!!!!!

    I am loving the Paperweights pattern. It is so vivid and eye-catching! By the way, such a cute pincushion. That is one thing I do not have yet.

    I've done Plaid Weave and was thinking of doing another of your quilts so I guess Stacks is my new fab.

    I love the Stacks and Thimbles patterns. I have a leaning toward more modern quilting styles. Love both scrappy looking quilts and quilts with lots of negative space. And of course, selvage projects are so interesting. I always enjoy your blog posts too. :)

    I really like tea basket. I think unique patterns are my favorite, ones that don't look like so many others. All of your little pin cushions are great too.

    I say to go for challenging and unique. Karen. There are more than enough easy and common patterns out there, with many of them free online. Good luck with the New Year, Karen!

    Hi Karen, I couldn't possibly pick one favorite, I love all your patterns. I am currently working on a zinger and completed a Silk Cigar Ribbon quilt last year. I love selvages and your book and blog have been my true inspiration. Oh, and what a cute pincushion! Thanks for the opportunity.

    How fun! Thanks for the chance to win :0). I am constantly inspired by your work and love your book too.
    I have trouble ordering on Etsy and wonder if there is any secrets you can share on the process.

    Have a blessed 2014

    I started reading your blog because of the selvage quilts. It is still what I enjoy most about your blog - expecially when you feature other selvage quilts that others have made

    I like The Stacks and Fine Lines. Both have a good amount of negative space, which I am taken with these days. Both lean toward the modern movement. :-) Thanks for being such a faithful blogger. I look forward to your new posts.

    I quite like all of them! I lean towards big contrast, quilts with fresh, clean lines and color placement.I don't necessarily make quilts like that, but like them. I guess I'm a bit modern.
