Today is the start of a special quilt blogging event - Fall Into Fall Quilt Bloggers Giveaway!
There are over 150 blogs to check out where you can find a wide variety of fabulous giveaways from the community of inspiring quilt bloggers. Read the instructions on each blog and post a comment to enter their draw.
I am excited to participate in this event to celebrate my favorite season - FALL! But also to celebrate my blog's 4th anniversary! I have written almost 600 blog posts documenting my quilting adventures, had over 20,00 visitors who have left me almost 4,000 comments! What great fun!
This is my Fall giveaway..a charm pack called Butterfly Garden (by Kansas Troubles Quilters for Moda), a roll of 6 batik Fat Quarters in gorgeous fall colours, and my "I love fall" wallhanging...
gourds not included :)
I bought these batiks on my trip to Michigan when I had a quick shopping trip at the Village Quilt Shoppe...aren't they yummy?!?
And the fall wallhanging was inspired by fellow blogger Julie at Quilter Behind the Barn Door. I loved her little pumpkin blocks and asked her if I could make a few. I found out that they are addictive (you can't just make 1) and I have already made a pile of them! This wallhanging uses 3 of my blocks...watch my blog to see how I use up the others! Thanks Julie for the inspiration!
To enter the draw for these fall treats (which will also include some chocolate of course!), leave me a comment and tell me about your favorite fall quilt.
I posted about my favorite fall quilt 3 years ago on this blog post. Here it is hanging on my dining room wall, where is is proudly displayed every year starting on the first day of Fall, and I still love it!
Thanks to Debi for organizing this fun event!
Good luck with the Fall Into Fall Quilt Bloggers Giveaway...have fun!

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 226 of 226I have only made one fall quilt and it is a table topper I just love. I get it out each fall and enjoy it so very much. Thanks for the chance to win your lovely giveaway.
I don't have a favorite fall quilt, my MIL used to make me a new quilt for my chair every year and my favorite was the one with planes.
I am entering for my daughter, her computer is down and she called and asked if once again I would enter her in contests, I couldn’t say no as she helps my wife and her mother with their charity quilting projects. I try to support them any way that I can, so here I am and I hope I am doing this right.
thank you for putting our name in your drawing. Florida area

My favorite fall quilt is one crafted by my late Grandmother who has been gone since the 70's. It's a crazy quilt and most of the material is from flour sacks. It even has my dad's initials in the corners since she crafted one for each of her children.
Thanks!

I don't have my own fall quilt (yet...) but my mother-in-law has a beautiful quilt hanging up in the living room of her gorgeous French farm house! It's there year-round, and I don't think was intended to be a "fall" quilt, but the colors are very fall-ish. I just love it :)
My favorite fall quilt is actually the first one I ever made. I call it Autumn's End. It is on the wall proudly in my quilting room.It reminds me of where I began and how far I have come. Be Well and Safe Travels.

Nice prize!
I don't have a favorite fall quilt yet, I do have a collection I'm amassing of fall fabrics, so someday :) xoxo melzie
What a wonderful giveaway!
My favorite quilt is a queen-sized quilt log cabin scrap quilt that I made when I was still hand piecing. The logs were about an inch wide. I set them so the lights and darks formed squares and appliqued fall leaves in the light sections. It's hard to describe, but I'm very proud of it. It won Viewers' Choice at a quilt show.
My favorite fall quilt is a quilt that I made and donated to a non-profit Camp Fire group as an auction quilt. $2200 was raised for their summer camp. It was so beautiful, I had to buy several tickets :0)
I've only made one true Fall quilt,, where I collected different leaves to use as templates, so I guess that is my favorite!

My favorite fall quilt is a Maple Leaf pattern I made for my husband's birthday our first fall in our present home. I found colors that matched the ones in the trees around us, to celebrate our new surroundings.

My favourite fall quilt is a wall hanging which is actually the first quilt I ever made.
I made a fall quilt with a border print and really loved how it turned out.
I do not have a fall quilt completed. I do have a couple that are flimsies. Do they count? I did the charm pack quilt along this summer by using fall colors from my stash. It is not quilted yet, though. I think it will be great when done. I do have a couple of table runners with pumpkins on them. Thanks for the giveaway.
Favorite Fall quilt was a Halloween quilt I made for my niece. She liked it so much she went door-to-door and showed all the neighbors!
My favorite fall quilt is a falling leaves quilt I made for a challenge to make an asymmetrical quilt. I love it so much it hangs on my wall 12 months out of the year!

What a fabulous giveaway.
I once did a small wall hanging with pumpkins and flying witches on a broomstick and I put that up at this time every year and that is my favorite.

I am a new quilter, so I only have a table runner in fall colors with the maple leaf block. I do love Kansas Troubles Quilters fabric though because of the colors they use. Happy 4th blogiversary!
My favorite fall quilt is a scrappy quilt with various pieced blocks including maple leaf blocks and flying gesse. Is all hand quilted too. My mother made it and gave it to me for Christmas several years ago. It is also the only quilt I own. Thanks for being part of the hope had a good time hopping 'round your blog! be back.
Thank you for having this giveaway.
