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!

If you don't have a blog but wish to enter the drawing I will get you set up on Blogger's free platform and include all of the above (a $150 value).

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 639 Newer› Newest»oops - forgot to tell you I am from Sydney, Australia :)
I posted about a quilt which my 12 year old son helped me to create. We both enjoyed the time we spent on our special project and he loves the finished thing, it's his favourite.
Thanks for hosting such a fun event. Heidi--an American in Australia
Really enjoying clicking on the links to see all of the wonderful quilts, such a brilliant idea. I've posted my own quilt this morning.
Theresa (in the UK).
Clever idea Amy! I'm Nina-Marie and I'm in Northwestern PA - on Lake Erie. I don't know what's more fun - participating or browsing the show! Brava!!
Hi Amy! I am so glad I found this! I'm an American living in Muscat, Oman in the Middle East. We have a huge group of quilters here and a thriving guild.
Here is my blog addy for this Festival:
http://coffeebeansdailies.blogspot.com/2009/10/bloggers-quilt-festival-2009.html
I can't wait to sit back and have a look! Gotta go run and pick up the kids!
Take care, Alia
Hi, I have posted about my quilt and I have add my link. Thanks for this nice event.
I'm Nichi from Italy
Amy! This has been so much fun! I browsed several blogs yesterday and had to make myself get up from the pc. Actually the last blog I browsed inspired me to make a quilt so I went right upstairs and did just that! :) It is 2/3rds put together and will be finished tomorrow in time to take to my guild meeting! Thanks so much for doing this festival! I hope the links to the blogs will be kept somewhere so we can continually go back to them. There is so much inspiration and eye candy it will take a year to go through it all! :)
I am originally from Northwest Alabama but moved to Henderson, NC in Jan 2003!
What a great idea. I have posted my first ever quilt. I have been looking at some of the quilts people are showing and they are amazing! It's nice to see what other people are up to.
The Chickies in Greece
from New Zealand
Have started my own blog so I can join in with this fantastic virtual quilt show. I live on the island of Guernsey - between England and France. Not many other quilters so I especially enjoy anything online. Thank you for organising this.
Hi Amy!
First of all thanks for hosting this amazing quilt festival. There's a lot of work and time involved in it.
I can't wait to visit all the blogs :D. I do not have one so I grab the button on my flickr gallery.
Elena from Barcelona
Hi Amy,
Thank you for yet another online quilt festival and strengthening the online quilting community!
Mindy Fitterman
Minka's Studio
New England
Thanks for organizing and doing all this. It's nice to re-remember favorites and also so wonderful to get all this inspiration for future quilts.
Whoo hoo #381! Wow, that's a lot of quilts! As always, great work Amy! And for the record, I'm from Los Angeles. :)
This is so great! There are so many amazing quilts to look at. I'm new to the quilting scene, but instantly fell in love... I entered the very first quilt I made. It was for my newborn daughter and it opened a whole new world to me, kinda like she did! Thanks for the fun opportunity!
Hi,
This is great! Thanks for hosting this festival!
I'm from The Netherlands.
--Muriël
This looks like a lot of fun. I've linked my post for a quilt I made for the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative. I'm in Ohio.

Hi Amy, thanks for the opportunity to show-case my quilt. I live in Maleny, Queensland, Australia. I'm not sure if I put the correct link in my entry, I have a feeling it just goes to my blog. Great idea and it's a great show, Ann.
Hi Amy, thanks for organizing this cool show again.

Hi I am Jodie from Florida and so excited to be joining in once again. In the spring I was like number 23 when I posted. I forgot that date it started and so now I am like number 409!!!! Wow that is a ton of entries. Some really nice quilts out there. Awesome that you have this show for all of us wishing we were at market. Thanks again. Here is my link I already posted, but just in case you need it. http://justbecausejodie.com/?p=1292

Hi, What a fun idea you had to sew all us quilters together in this blog festival! My quilt turned out about as good as the Pumpkin Quiche recipe I tried (that went into the trash), and was actually made as my first Schnibbles quilt. It's an embarrassing sight, but for some reason, I'm not minding showing it, since I got to blog all about my lesson in perseverance from it. Thanks for letting me enter into the delight of this fun!
I am having so much fun looking at all the beautiful quilts!
Thanks for having this quilt festival.
Beautiful Quilts! What a great idea!
Thank you!

Have a great week!

I just loved this last year and couldn't resist joining in the fun. Thanks for doing this!
And oopsie for me too....I'm Susan, and I live in Gaithersburg, Maryland (which is suburb of Washington, DC).
finally got mine posted...kansas weather didn't cooperate for picture taking, but it will have to do. i spent a few hours last night cruising quilts...a few stories brought tears to my eyes. thanks amy...a rousing success!
The quilt I added was made because my hubby commented that he liked it when I was paging through a quilt book. It has become my favorite too!
From Jo and www.joscountryjunction.com in NE Iowa
I posted my link twice because I forgot to link to the specific post, but then remembered. I don't think i'm appearing twice tho! Good luck everyone!
I checked out the last one you did, but never added my own. This time around I decided to contribute. I'm only 21 so I don't have a whole lot of quilts to choose from (maybe 7 completed, I have 4 WIPs). Anyways, so glad there is another one and hopefully someone out there enjoys my quilt/blog. Jessica from Texas aka Quirky Parsnip.
Amy,
Thanks for setting up the Quilt Festival. I'm having a ball looking at all of the lovely quilts.

Thanks Amy for hosting the Fall Quilt Festival. I could not make up my mind which quilt to enter, so I picked my latest finished quilt...a Red Churn Dash quilt.
Hi Amy and everybody at the Blogger's Quilt Festival. Isn't this brilliant? I've posted my quilt at http://shiny4444.blogspot.com/2009/10/tukusan-tsugi.html and now I'm sitting in Lincolnshire in England where the autumn leaves are falling while I'm browsing all your fabulous quilts and being very inspired. Thanks for organising this Amy, it's great.
Thanks for hosting this! I'm in Baltimore, MD, and my quilt is also featured in my profile pic, but can be seen in full with its story at Heart Anchored, Mind Adrift.

This virtual quilt festival is such a great idea! Thanks for hosting it.
Thanks for hosting this online quilt show! I have spent about 4 days viewing every single blog and have bookmarked at least 100 sites for future inspiration. Now on to my own quilts...
Thanks for organizing this again! So much fun and so many talented quilters. I'm excited that Wish Upon a Quilt is a sponsor since they are my main fabric store that I go to here in NC.
Thanks so much for hosting this, I think it is a great idea. I've added my link and am now ready for the show.
Hi Amy,
What a fun idea. I posted a link from my blog with my featured quilt. But I realized that when I listed my URL, I listed my general blog URL not the specific one for my post. How can I change that? If it is easier on your end (sorry, I know you're busy!) my correct link is http://sillyhappysweet.blogspot.com/2009/10/bloggers-quilt-festival.html
for Silly Happy Sweet's blog. So sorry! Thank you again. What a clever idea! --Carolyn
Hi Amy,
I've linked to my favorite quilt, which happens to be one of the newer ones. Thanks for the fun idea! I've checked out a couple dozen other quilts so far. Making my way through the list. :-)

ps: The original quilt is on display right now at Naugatuck Valley Comm College in Waterbury CT.
I've finally posted my entry! You can find it at http://www.quiltdad.com/2009/10/bloggers-quilt-festival-2009.html. I didn't want to miss my opportunity to win one of the AMAZING prizes! Thanks so much for all of your hard work, Amy ... your festivals are so, so great.
What a wonderful idea. I'm delighted to participate and can hardly wait to spend some time looking at all the quilts shown here. Thanks!

Thank you!

Hi Amy I have posted my link to my greatest quilting achievement (to date), it's my first time using a quilting machine myself! I'm so glad I found out about this quilt festival, I am a newbie quilter and will be attending the International Quilt Festival in Houston this Friday for the first time! In my opinion this is better than a regular quilt show because you get to see a little background on the quilt and quilter!
Waxahachie TX
Hi Amy, I'm Diane from Grove City, Ohio. You inspired me to start my creative blog (after years of thinking about it). There are so many beautiful quilts to look at here, I might never sleep.

I love this! I got to go to the Houston Quilt Festival twice while I was in Texas. I loved it even before I really knew about designers etc. Sigh... Thanks for hosting this. I am going to have a good time looking at all of the quilts for the next couple of weeks!

great job amy, this is so much fun!
Thanks for hosting! I'm so glad I could participate this time. Here's my post: http://meagangracie.wordpress.com/2009/10/14/bloggers-quilt-festival/
What a great idea and loads of fun, many thanks.
My post and photos are up and your button is on my blog; I'm off to travel blogland and see the lovely quilts.
I'm in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains of southwest Virginia.
Hello! I finally decided to get in on this.... I don't have a blog so I posted my pics on flickr and added them to the Festival group.
I tried to link to Flickr with Mr Linky, not sure if that will work or not....
Thank you for hosting this festival. I LOVE looking at all the gorgeous quilts!!

-An American living in South Korea
Phew, I almost missed it, but I think I made it! Thanks for putting this on Amy! You're the best ;-)
Wow! And to think I figured out how to create a blog, a link, and a button just to share in all the fun....... My goodness!
Seriously, thank you SO much for putting this on. I've gotten nothing accomplished for several days now, *except* reading stories, being inspired and making new friends, It's been fabulous!
I can't believe it's almost a year since I finished this quilt! I love the interplay of the two colours. Writing from Edmonton AB Canada.
Thanks for the lovely quilt show!
I love being able to show off some of my quilts. It is so great to see others and go to quilt show in my PJ's. Thanks
Glenna from Arizona
Thanks Amy for doing the quilt festival. It has been great to see all the different quilt artists and their work.
HIya,
Just posted about my entry in the festival, so glad to be here. wish I could have found you sooner but so glad to sneak in by the skin of my teeth.
I live in Sydney Australia, we have some very quilty girls here down under. Thsi is fantastic,
Thanks so much
jo
Oh, what fun! I love looking at all of the entries. Thanks for another great quilt festival!
Sally in SE Washington
Thanks for hosting again. I loved going through all the blogs last spring enjoying all the beautiful quilts. It's rainy and dreary here today in McLean, VA - perfect weather for viewing quilts again. Ahhh.
I'm back again browsing. What a feast for the eyes. Aaahhhh!
Thanks for all the fun, Amy. I did blog about your festival and hope I can participate in your Spring Festival 2010.
Marty in Louisiana
Thank you for this online Festival - I love it! Julie in PA/USA.

Thanks for hosting this! I just entered my quilt, and spent an hour or more looking at other entries. What a wonderful way to spend a chilly western Massachusetts morning.
Hi, Amy. Thanks for hosting another quilt festival. It is so much fun to look at "all" the quilts and blogs! I have been so inspired and made new friends. Thanks so much!
Oops, I forgot to say I am from central Illinois.
I just did my first EVER Mr. Linky! I'm so excited! And I am SO enjoying looking at all the breathtaking quilts! Thanks so much!
This is amazing! I just linked over from Wish Upon a Quilt and wow! The quilts are extraordinary. Mrs. Moen's quilt story gave me the chills. Quilts are no longer just sometihng to keep warm under or a way to use old material. They are works of art with symbolism & depth. I'm new to this "hobby" but I can see already how my English teaching background will influence my future works. I can hardly wait to get started!
I ddecided to use my Autumn Wedding Quilt as my Festival entry at All Things Quilty.
Jeanne Turner McBrayer in Wake Forest, NC
Thanks for putting this together for us. I really enjoyed seeing so many of the quilts.
Hi...I posted an old family quilt for the festival...my name is Kristine...live in WA state...SAHM of 2, wife to 1...this is my first time joining your festival...fun fun!
What an amazing concept - so many beautiful quilts here. I am inspired to continue to persevere at my early quiltmaking attempts!
This is such a fun way to see what every one can do! I am living in Utah, but I'm from Las Vegas. Thanks for doing this!
Hey Amy! I finally got my festival post up! Thanks so much for hosting this wonderful event! Oh, and I'm from good ol' Gilbert, Arizona :)
