Welcome, welcome! I'm so excited to have you here for the festival! Make sure that you are comfortable, there are so many beautiful quilts to inspire and awe you. When I hosted the Spring Festival I was blown away by the vastness of this online community, and all the talent too! This installment is bound to be just as exciting and fun, with new friends made too. I need to start with a big THANK YOU to the sponsors - check them out on the right, and later in this post too! Each sponsor has generously offered a piece of their shop/business, please take a few moments to click over to each one as they all have something different to offer.
Do you have a quilt to showcase? Excellent! Here's what you need to do -- 1. Go write a post about your quilt. It doesn't matter what size, style, or era it is from - there's no judging here. In your post tell your quilt's story. Also be sure to link back here so your readers can join in the fun too! Everyone is welcome - international readers that's you too! 2. Once you have posted on your blog, come back here with a link to that post. Not just your blog, click on the title of your post and get a link to that specific post. 6 months later there have been lots of readers clicking through links from the Spring Festival daily, if you post just to your blog they will not be able to find your Festival Entry. 3. Insert your name and url in the Mr. Linky. 4. Leave me a comment to be entered in to the giveaways. I'm curious to know where you are from, could you please add your general location to your comment!? Thanks! 5. Now go check out all the other entries! Leave encouraging comments wherever you land, enjoy making new friends and be inspired. 6. If you are on flickr, consider adding your entry to the Group Pool, it's great to see all the quilts in the gallery.
About the sponsors and prizes!

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 639 Newer› Newest»Hi Amy-Stephanie from Redmond, WA! Congrats on putting this together!!
Thanks for all the work, and thank you to the generous sponsors and talented quilters!
Everyone always says that the internet makes the world a great deal smaller. With these wonderful quilting bloggers, I now have many more blogs to visit and that makes my world much larger! Thanks for the time and effort you have put into this.
Can't wait to dig into all the links with quilts to view. This is a lot of work for you...and it's appreciated. Keeps everyone from feeling so left out from Quilt Market. Enjoying all this from Kentucky.

OK, I have posted about my quilt and linked, and just for your curiosity: I am 67 years old, have lived in Grand Rapids, MI for the last 31 years and grew up in Minneapolis. I have been quilting for about 40 years, mostly for charity, kids and grandkids. I like to fool around with fabric, PIECE blocks and make scraps into quilts.
Thanks for organizing this! It's so much fun and I'm glad I had the chance to participate this year. Oh, and I'm from South Carolina!
I live in GERMANY!! Well my husband and I are just stationed here for now. We've been here for 3 1/2 years already. I wanna win some stuff! Let me say thank you for hosting this also. I dont get to do quilt shows over here... I dont even have a fabric store! So its much much appreciated.
Thanks for setting up the bloggers quilt festival, Amy. Super fun.
I'm Alisa from Chilliwack, BC, Canada.
I think I finally got things right! Thanks for all the time you have put into organizing this for all of us out here who love to quilt and are not brave enough to show them off.
Thank you for hosting this very fun event!
I have a post! I am in Green, Ohio, South of Cleveland, North of Canton. Thanks!
What a great idea. Thank you for taking the time to set this up. I look forward to start checking out the links to all this creativity!
Amber Johnson in Utah
Hey Amy! This is my 2nd time participating in your Quilt Festival. I can't wait to snoop around and check out all the beautiful quilts! I'm from Seattle, Wa. Thanks for all your hard work on this!
Amy, girl, hi! I'm all posted and am *trying* to have a lookie at everyone's wonderful efforts. There's so many! This is so cool and you're so smart - but you knew I thought that anyway, didn't ya?
Lynz Graham in Bonnie Scotland!!
This is just so great! Thanks for hosting this again. I am Alyson from Minneapolis. I loved checking out all the quilts last spring and thrilled to have more at my fingertips...and what great giveways too!
This is my first time entering the festival. This is such fun. Can't wait to see all the beautiful quilts. Thanks for doing this.
Like I said, this is my first time for doing this and I did it wrong. My first link was wrong. I did it again and put in the correct link. Could you get rid of the first one. I'm so sorry.
Thanks. Caroll
Thanks again for doing this Amy - can't wait to see everyone's quilts!
What a fun idea! And it originated in my backyard practically! Thanks for all of your hard work to put this together! I know I will spend countless hours checking out everyone's blogs and projects. Shannon at "The Quilt Rack"
YEAH! My very first quilt show!
Thanks for hosting.
Hi I'm Tammy from Phoenix Arizona.
It is going to be fun to look at all of these quilts!
Thanks for doing this Amy!
Hi Amy! Just wanted to let you know that I have joined the list! :)
Thanks so much for putting together this fabulous festival again. I had such a wonderful time in the Spring! I am really looking forward to all of the fabulous eye candy and great stories as I visit blogs over the next few days.
Doh! I forgot to add-- my name is Robin and I'm from Bothell, Washington. :)
I am in...

Thanks for organizing this! I'm from Warrensburg, Missouri. I will try to post a picture of the quilt taken in the natural light. We have had some very rainy days here, so my pics were taken in bad light with bad staging. I'll try to do better and then update my blog with better photos when I can. Thanks again, for the fun show.
I'm number 165 in the lineup...I posted my qult pic from flickr. Now I'll hunt up the group and addit there.

I'm so excited to participate in the quilt festival. I live in Spring Hill TN. I've only been quilting for about 5 years but really do enjoy it although I do other kinds of sewing also. I retired from school teaching last May and moved her over the summer. Am still working on getting settled in and looking forward to having lots more time to spend with my sewing machine (and my family). Can't wait to look at all these quilts.

I'm having just as much fun this Festival as I did last Spring. Thanks so much, Amy, for hosting this wonderful event. Even though I usually don't attend Quilt Market in Houston (I only attend Spring Market), I certainly don't feel left out! Give yourself a huge "pat on the back" from me...you certainly deserve it! I'm in Thousand Oaks, CA, btw.

Greetings from Ahaus (Germany), Steffi
Hi there...Mary here at Quilt Hollow! I've posted this quilt recently on my blog but thought why not again for those who will be scouring the quilts and who may have missed it. I plan to give this little quilt away soon.

Hi, Amy! I posted my link in the Mr. Linky box.
Thank you so much for doing this. I know a lot of work went on behind the scenes. I have chaired quilt shows in real life, so I'm sure chairing a quilt show in blogland is hard work, too.
Thanks, again!
Amanda
Hi Amy,
This is so much fun. I'm going to post about the first big-ish quilt I ever made. I'm still hoping to one day make my 'favourite' quilt.
Take care,

Hi Amy, I came across your blog through another blog, that I found on Live Journal. I just added my blog post to the Quilt Festival. This festival is such a good idea. I am going to sit here all day long looking and reading about all the quilts that are on the list! So many talented people! Thanks for coming up with this!

Hi! I am posting my favorite quilt to be a part of the festival. This is a great idea! My blog is rememberyourkarma.blogspot.com. I am located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina, USA. Thanks for organizing this, I really enjoy seeing the beautiful quilts and meeting other blog-quilters.
I am from Texas, by way of Colorado. I am showing my newest plaid madness quilt. Thank you for doing this, it is fun to see everyone's creativity!
Great viewing. Thanks Amy from Julie S....Australia. Just put in my entry.
Thank you so much for doing this. I'm here in North Carolina where it's very warm and humid today. A little rainy so it was a good day to check out some of the wonderful quilts. I love reading the stories, admiring so many beautiful works.
You are sweet to gather all this inspiration together (especially for brand new babies like me).
Wow... I can't believe how many quilting bloggers there are... it's amazing! There are almost more sites to visit than days in a year!!! SO MUCH FUN!!
giselle in L.A.
I read about your festival and decided on a whim to link one of my quilts. Thanks for having this awesome event. I'm very excited to read about all the quilts here. This is a terrific idea.
I'm from Texas, and my quilt definitely has a story. A close friend who lives in RI and I made two of these quilts as a friendship project. Then we gave the quilts to our husbands. These are the second pair of quilts we have made together. I'm not a seasoned quilter; only three quilts that I can take credit for. But I'm a long time passionate quilt collector and appreciate the work that goes in to these wonderful textiles. Thanks again! ~ Sarah
Thank you Amy for "doing" this great festival again!
Tammy from PA
