It is time for another fun Quilting Gallery bloghop. The theme for this time is giving thanks, appropriate as we in the States celebrate Thanksgiving next week and start the Holiday Season. If you are a new visitor, Welcome to Fabrics & Flowers! We have a lot of great quilting projects here.
This week, I am working on getting my modern double wedding ring quilted in time for the NY Modern Quilt Guild challenge on December 1. I am so excited to see all the fabulous quilts on display and innovative variations on this classic pattern.
I am also hosting a Quilt Along making the Midnight at the Oasis Quilt by Jen Kingwell. After doing the Marcelle Medallion last summer, I am kind of hooked on medallion quilts!
So, for my giveaway, I have two fat quarter bundles, pictured above, for two lucky people to win. Both have five fat quarters of the same fun novelty prints. If you would like to win these, leave me a comment on this post.
As I mentioned, my two current projects are modern versions of classic quilt designs, which is my favorite style. Another classic on my to-do list is the pine burr….I absolutely love that block!
To be eligible to win, tell me, what is your favorite classic quilting design that is on your list to re-create?
To save on the crazy cost of shipping, the fabric giveaway is open to North America only. However, if you live elsewhere, tell me where you are and you may win a pdf copy of my pattern, Zen Garden. Check out my website, Color Girl Quilts, to see patterns now available, and there will be more soon….

I want to do a grammas garden. I have started working on hexies for it but am far from done.
I plan to do a variation of Lady of the Lake one day. Thank you for participating in the blog hop.
I want to do my own version of the wedding ring quilt.
well, right now I am quilting a Hunters Star block quilt with Bonnie & Camielle’s Vintage Modern fabric. It is turning out wonderful. svonfumetti(at)yahoo(dot)com

I like the modern cabin and the disappearing nine patch
What lovely fat quarters you are offering for the giveaway! Thank you for the opportunity to win!
Quilting design: swirls and circular designs.
A grandmother’s flower garden quilt is one I like to imagine!
I’d love to make a double wedding ring. I love your fabric choices! I can already see the beautiful baby quilt I would make with those whimsical kites!!
Flying geese patterns, like the Dutchman’s Puzzle. Thanks!!
Such cool fat quarters! I would love to make a Dresden plate anything – even just a pillow. 🙂
First… I love your quilts, they are beautiful. I think that I would like to do a log cabin, for I have yet to make one. Thanks for this awesome opportunity and I am now following you on FB.
I love the 3rd quilt on your picture above, do you have a pattern?
thanks for the fun fabric giveaway. I would love to redo the log cabin using modern fabrics. I made one a long time ago and I think it is time to update the look of the quilt.
I love modern takes on the Dresden plate!
I am ready to make another modern log cabin quilt. So many beautiful interpretations of this pattern!
I would like to make a double wedding ring quilt or a Dresden plate quilt. They both seem too hard for me, though!!
I don’t have a special classic design, but I recently made a log cabin baby quilt for my niece’s baby.
Thanks,
Peggy

I like log cabins, and want to make modern wonky ones for a runner for the bed!
My favorite is the wedding ring block – a classic and so beautiful.
I’d really love to make a postage stamp quilt or at least a variation of it.
Lovely prizes, thanks for the chance to win!
I have my eye on taking a simple nine patch and turning it into a modern classic using the Quick Curve Ruler by Jenny Pedigo. Her latest blog has beautiful pictures of one that I hope to use as inspiration.
I’ve wanted to try to make a Dresden plate quilt.
I am really wanting to make an Amish broken star (exploding star as I think of it). Thanks!
I just love anything with paper piecing. But I’m really wanting to get into applique!

I have been admiring Sisters Choice blocks lately so would like to make a quilt using them in 2014. Thank you for a wonderful giveaway!
I still have a double wedding ring on my bucket list. We’ll see…
I have been thinking of doing a bear paw in modern fabrics – those look perfect!
I want to try a dresden quilt on day.
Ah, I have a list! Log cabin, double wedding ring, dresden plate, new york beauty, etc
Dresden plate is on my list — thanks for the chance!
Love your wedding ring! This was my grandmother’s favorite and mine. I want to do a modern version.
I love the log cabin block though I have yet to make one.
Me – I want to make a New York Beauty. As far as quilting pattern – that would be the Baptist Fan – I love how it looks on busy quilts. Thanks for the chance!
I would like to recreate a two-color snail trail quilt.
I’d love to do a Robbing Peer to Pay Paul quilt in red and white. Thanks, pbstrand@msn.com
I am trying to find a really weird green from the 30s so I can make a Star Flower Quilt from Martingale. It has set in seams. I have never done these. ll_gee at hotmail dot com
I think I would like to try a churn dash quilt, it looks simple enought for a newbie like me, but interesting enough to make a quilt.
Thanks for the give-away and Happy Thanksgiving.
