Happy Birthday to ME!! Happy Giveaway To YOU!!!
My birthday was a couple of weeks ago. In honor of that, I would like to have a giveaway. I have been collecting a few" quilty" things here and there for a while. I may not be finished shopping for the giveaway yet, but I will post a picture of it soon. Leave a comment on this post and tell me who your favorite fabric or pattern designer is or your favorite quilt shop. The shop can be off or on line. If you post about the giveaway and link to my blog I will enter you twice. If the name selected mentions where they heard of the giveaway, that person (who posted it) will win something too. Good luck to everyone! I will chat soon with pictures.

Happy Birthday, Pat!
My favorite pattern designer is Carrie Nelson (Miss Rosie's), but a newfound one I really like is Margot Languedoc whose designs come under the 'The Pattern Basket' name. AND my favorite quilt shop ever is The Fabric Shack in Waynesville, OH. What sales! And I ended up here from your comment on Toni's post for the tote giveaway! WHEW! (sorry, no blog for me)
Happy Birthday, Pat! I hope you had a wonderful day. Thank you for dropping by my blog. I have enjoyed browsing through yours. I really love your stitcheries. I have yet to perfect my embroidery skills.
My favorite fabric at the moment is Cherry Baby from Holly Holderman. I have yet to get my little hands on some yardage. My favorite local quilt shop is The Calico Cat. They have a great selection of fabric.
I won't be putting out another blog post until Monday so I'll include your blog link at that time.
Aloha!
Pat,
I live in Mililani Mauka. It is the same community as Mililani Town though it is located above the freeway in the mountain area. Mauka in Hawaiian means toward the mountain.
Aloha,
Lettie
Happy Birthday!!
Picking a favourite designer or shop is very very difficult. I tend to be like a buzzy bee sampling from all the shops...including those that happen to be closest. I suppose here in the UK my favouirte online shop would be the Contented Cat. They have the best customer service and they charge the actual shipping charge as opposed to a fixed rate which is nice when you are just ordering needles!
Just stumbled on your blog via Jeanne and read Jane's comment (as I'm in the UK too, it was very interesting).
I don't do any stitchery, mainly piecing so love Carol Doak, Quilterscache and Quiltville. Fabrics I love depends on the project really, I like lots of stuff.
Hope you had a great brithday :-)
Happy Bday........ Fave designer Rosalie Quinlan/Melly & Me..... fave quilt shop Hetties Patch in little old Adelaide. Not sure about fabric. If my computer gets back to a working condition I will mention the give away on my blog....here's hoping.
Happy Birthday!
favorite shop
Z and S online shop
http://www.zandsfabrics.com/ the service and prices are wonderful.
Favorite Designer...hmmm thats a hard one
how about the quilters from the 1800's where most quilt designs are based from anyway!
Thanks...
Happy birthday!
To be honest I don't have any favorite designer, I just pick the fabrics I like and don't notice the designer. As I live in Norway my favorite online quilt shops are Norwegian. They are: Lappedilla,and Desiree's Lappeteknikk. Of international I like Fabric Shack. My local quilt shop just closed!
I love lots of different styles and designers so that would be too hard to pick. My favorite shop is one you might be aware of, Material Rewards, in Dansville, NY. It is always stuffed with wonderful fabric, patterns, notions, just a great variety. And the ladies there are very helpful, it is a great place to go.
Happy belated birthday Pat. I love anything done by Joanna Figueroa of Fig Tree Quilts.
I just discovered your blog and love it. Your stitchery is beautiful. I love Amy Butler fabrics and my favorite quilt shop is a local shop - Time Treasured Quilts. Hope you have a great birthday.
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
I have more than one favorite quilt shop! One is my LQS www.kreativquilt.no, and another one is in Oslo. They don't have a web-site, but a blog, kathrinesquiltestue.blogspot.com Both of them are worth a visit!
Three sisters are among my favorite fabric designers, and Leanne Beasley is one of my fav patterndesigners!
Happy Birthday Pat! I would love to see the sitchery with that saying once you finish it. I am not a quilter(though I wish I was sometimes!) so please don't enter me in the give away - wouldn't be fair to those that are! I just enjoy seeing what talented folks like you do! hugs, Linda
HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!!!
I don't have a favorite fabric, pattern designer or quilt shop.
I like a little of everything
dolls123[at]gmail[dot]com
Happy Birthday, Pat :)
I live in the little town of Rydal, Georgia and can't afford to buy the Amy Butlers and such...and the only fabric within hours of us comes from Hobby Lobby. Sooooo, based on that, I'd say my fav from HL is Sister Brother Designs. Pretty fabric, at a shop near (me) you!
I found your blog through a quilt roll link on the Covered Porch and Wooden Screen Door site.
Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to me! LOL. Thanks for the comment on my Blog and good luck with the Quilt Market Give Away! I love all my new Blogging Friends I'm meeting. Toodles, ~jodi
A belated birthday Pat!
I live in Richmond Virginia and am addicted to all things primitive. Add a sheep or bee skep and I'm done for. Have to have it. Alas, not a good shop around here to buy primitive but no problem
My favorite is Primitive Gatherings in Wisconsin.
Happy same birth date as me day! Lol, I didn't have a giveaway, what a nice idea! My all time favorite shop and designers are the Country Threads gals, Mary and Connie in Garner Iowa. But my LQS the Quilters Coop is my favorite local. Happy Birthday!!
Happy belated birthday to you Pat!! Hope you had a wonderful time!!
Ohhh...favourite shops...difficult...In Sweden...http://www.butikenannalunda.se/...and in Australia...
http://www.honeysucklecottage.com.au/shop/ and in USA...oh tooo many ...;D but I definetly know who is NOT my favourite...Cross Stitch Keepsakes... :(...And wow...fabric favourite...for the moment Simplicity by 3 sisters and ME fabrics!
And at last favourite designer...think hard...Hmmm...ok Cheri Saffiote Payne...Bareroots and Leanne Beasley...Wow that was a long comment! I will put up a blogentry tomorrow and mention you there...
Take care..
Happy (belated) birthday!
I don't have a favourite fabric or pattern designer, but my favourite quilt shop is called The Sewing Basket (it's the closest thing I have to a local one, I think). I'm not sure if they have a website, but I love going to the store because everyone there is friendly.
Happy Belated Birthday!
My favourite fabric type seems to be shabby chic, although I regularly play with other types. I don't really ahve a favourite designer. Favourite quilt shop? I guess it would be Ginny's Premium Quilt Shoppe in Oakville, Ontario.
I got here from Polka Dot Pineapple!
Happy Birthday, Pat. There is a cute little quilt shop in Harlan, Iowa called Stitchin' Tree Quilts. I love that place! I found your giveaway from a link on Lettie's blog Polka Dot Pineapple.
Very happy birthday. I have so many favorites it is hard to say. I love superbuzzy.come and reprodepot.com. They have fabric no one else has and sometimes I love that, having something that isn't main stream. But you pay a price there for it.
So where do you get fabric in upstate New York? My father-in-law is from Westport New York and we were there a couple years ago, its pretty remote. I didn't get into Lake Placid but really shopping is not easy up there. Its so beautiful though.
Happy Birthday! One of my favorite designers/shop owners/shop is Lisa Bongean, and her shop is Primitive Gatherings. Her prims are beautiful and so unique. The wool they make at their shop is second to none!
Happy Birthday, Pat!
My favourite pattern designer is Jo Morton, but I also like Kaffe Fassett and several others, lol.
My favourite shop is possibly oooh now I can't make my mind up let's just say a lot on Quiltshops.com :)) I was on Arlette's blogspot "Polka dot Pineapple" when she mentioned you:)) so I came right over.
Now how do I link to you on my blogspot? All the very best Elly
Happy Birthday!!
I found your blog via Catherine.
Favorite fabrics is easy Kansas Troubles! I buy my fabric mainly online through many different stores, one is called Favorite Fabrics, another is Connecting Threads.
Happy belated Birthday! My favorite designers are Jo Morton and Judie Rothermel. I love everything they put out there. Elly from Mad4Patchwork led me here to the giveaway. I can't choose a fabric shop - there are so many.
I was at Cathi's blog (Quilt Obsession). Happy Birthday to you! I love Denyse Schmidt fabrics and my very favorite fabric store is Sarah's Fabrics in Lawrence, Kansas.
Happy Happy Birthday, Pat.
I can't give you a favorite anything because I'm quite fickle. LOL
Happy Belated Birthday To You!!!! Just found you through Quilt Obsession. Thanks for the give away.
Well who doesnt love a give away. Happy Birthday to you..hope you got spoilt..hugs Khris in Oz
Happy Birthday! Hope you had a wonderful time at the Quilted Crow! I love that shop! Cheers!
Happy Birthday! I think my favorit shop is a tossup between Fat Quarters quilt Shop in Vista, CA or Calico Horse in Redlands, also CA.
There are too many fabrics to choose from since I like so many different ones. Leanne Beasley is wonderful designer.
Kviltstina sent me over...good luck to us both.
Happy birthday!
I order a lot from Fabric Depot in Portland, OR, but I really like the Fabric Shack, too. And I like eQuilter.com because they donate part of the proceeds to charities.
I can't settle on a favorite--seems every FabShopHop I find a new one to love.
Designer? I haven't been quilting long enough to try many, so will abstain on that one.
My favorite quilt shop is Sweet Lavender in Roy, Utah. A beautiful shop!
saw it was your birthday on ely's site (mad4patchwork)

Hi, and Happy Birthday.
I like batiks and almost all designers to even name one. How about Kaffe Fassett!
My favorite online shop is Hancocks in Peducah Kentucky, but the best store ever is Rosies in San Diego. I don't get there very often (since I live in Canada), but it is a dandy. Oh, there is another one in Florida that is super, right east of the space center... yes, I'm a quilt shop lover... how about that one in...
Happy belated birthday Pat!
Having just discovered the Quilted Crow website I'd have to say that is my current favourite.
I have mentioned this giveaway on my blog entry for today and hope it will bring many more visitors to your blog to join the fun.
Happy Birthday Pat.
Thank you for having a giveaway. I enjoy reading your blog.
Happy Birthday, Pat!
It's hard to tell which designer is my favourite one...I think there are (currently) two: Leanne Beasley (Leanne's House) and Natalie Lymer (Cinderberry Stitches), fabric: these romantic moda ranges by various designers (can't name just one)...I actually don't have a favourite quilt shop...I'm dreaming of a visit in all these gorgeous shops I've seen here in www...;o)
I've already posted in my blog about your giveaway!
I like the Amy Butler fabrics and the on line shop Fatquartershop.
Happy Birthday!
I love Thimbleberries and I adore using Moda fabrics. I can't pick a favorite quilt shop.......I love exploring new ones though!
Happy Birthday to you!
oohhh I forgot to say my fav online shop is www.wishuponaquilt.com
Hugs Khris

Happy belated Birthday Pat,I like designs from Cath from Cathroncountry designs,

Hi Pat and Happy Belated Birthday. Margaret (Spain) talked about you in her blog - so I thought I would drop in and visit.
My favorite quilt shop this week is Jam Patch in Stuart, Florida. But that is because I am in Stuart this week for a little R&R.
I love Moda fabrics and Thimbleberries fabrics. I love more primitive and traditional quilts - though I have been making some different themed ones. There is no quilt shop near where I live in Georgia so I will buy only what I need for whatever quilt I want to make. (I do pick up some miscellaneous yardage just because!)
Will visit again -
Roberta
Happy Birthday to you! I found your blog through Julia of www.littlegirlquilts.blogspot.com
There are so many great fabrics and designers out there that it's hard to choose. But I'm really like Anna Maria Horner's stuff and Valori Wells. They both have blogs that showcase their wonderful fabric.

Happy Birthday - I found your blog through Margaret (A Sampler of Stitches). I have no particular favourite shop or designer.
Please enter me into your draw
Pat,
A happy belated birthday to you. I was guided here by Margaret, my good friend from A Sampler of Stitches. She's producing some really pretty and very inspirational little stitchery pieces at the moment.
My favourite designers who very prettily combine my great love of cross stitching with a newly developing love of quilting are Barb and Alma from Blackbird Designs. I love their designs and their beautiful quilting patterns.
I have just been away for a week in Holland staying with another stitching friend, Heidi from Needle Necessities and, under her guidance, I embarked on my first quilting experience, a crazy quilt heart. I've fallen in love with a new craft and will definitely be trying out some more...hmmm!
Warm wishes for your birthday celebration.
