    Who doesn't love giveaways 🙂

    I enjoy seeing pictures of your sweet girls.

    I also enjoy your creative way of quilting and it inspires me to try more then just the traditional idea of quilting.

    Your tutorial are helpful.

    The challenges you create are fun and make me want to quilt even when I have no time to do so. They also help me think of different ways or things to make.

    I enjoy following your blog because your fabric choices are not at all what I would pick but you make it work and look fantastic. It forces me to try to think differently when I am picking fabrics for my own projects, your choices are bold and colorful and I think I can be too safe. Plus I love going to the apple orchard and seeing and hearing about yours makes me smile.

    Wow! Now I have to like your blog! Very intriguing! What a great take-off idea from Project Runway! Currently I have a large back up of quilts to do and the new Mystery Quilt by Bonnie Hunter, but I sure will enjoy reading about what you all are doing. I love your different take on quilt blocks–most especially on the wedding ring quilt. Need to put it on my quilts-to-do list (probably after my Dear Jane.) Thank you for your generous giveaway!

    I'm new to your blog. Love every part of it. I especially love seeing your quilts. My favorite is the amazing Scrappy Trip Along It's fantastic! I didn't see if you have a pattern for it or not. I also love the names you chose for your beautiful little girls. Persimon Dreams is a great name for your business. Thanks for this awesome giveaway! 🙂

    I like your blog because it's different. Your approach to pattern design and color coordination provides me with options I don't see anywhere else.
    Thank you,

    I follow your blog and like you on Facebook. Why do I read the blog? Several reasons. 1) Project Quilting. 2) You're a pretty good writer so it keeps me coming back. 3) You're a snowflake! (Duh!) 🙂 Love you chickie.
