    I like the looks of Zentangle quilting, but my all time favorite is feathers. I have a blue & white Irish chain quilt all ready to go, but I want feathered hearts in the open areas. My local long armer has just started to learn feathers, so it has been sitting aside waiting for her to learn-for about 2 years now!

    I have never used a long arm quilter. I have a quilt that has a lot of open white space that needs to be long arm quilted and it's for my son so nothing to flowery. I would think lots of circles and swirls would look good.
    Thanks for the chance.

    If I won I'd choose the feathery one. I know just which top I'd send ya too! Thanks for a chance to win this great gift. I've had a couple of quilts long arm quilted and I love the way they turned out. I'm to cheap to get it done very often though and I've been putting off quilting this top just because I don't want to have to wrestle with it.

    I'll have to decide after I win. There are several flimsies I've been waiting to quilt. Maybe I'd let you have fun with my Ojibwe beadwork inspired quilt.

    I'm going to say feathers. I have a quilt top hanging in the closet, awaiting me finding a long arm quilter....

    Feathers are my fave! I have plenty of quilt tops just waiting to be quilted, so I hope I win! ;^) Thanks for the generous give away you are offering!

    Like Hearsease I like the looks of Zentangle quilting, they're all pretty though. I think the quilting pattern would depend on which quilt I sent. :) Thanks also for the info about no reply. You'd mentioned it before, but I didn't know how to change it (I barely know how to blog:)). I think I have it fixed now, we'll see. Love your blog. Nita

    I love the double bubble pattern. I have several tops that need quilting. If I won it would be hard to pick just one.

  23. GwenDecember 11, 2011 at 4:42 PM

    I love the swirls--- so pretty! But, if I were to win, I think I'd just let the quilter choose what they think would work best, since they would certainly have more experience than I.... Wow! What an awesome prize!! Thank you so much for the chance to win! :-)

  24. LeslyDecember 11, 2011 at 5:28 PM

    Can't go wrong with feathers! But I've never used long arm services so I would have to listen closely to the advice of the quilter - I'm sure she would have some good suggestions!

    I've alsways been a sucker for feathers. The quilting is lovely.

  26. VickiTDecember 11, 2011 at 9:26 PM

    I am already a follower. Gosh if I won, I'm not sure which I'd want as I suppose it would depend on the quilt. I have a Grandchild arriving soon (Feb) and need to make something for her and also I still want to make a lap quilt (extra long for my 6'6" husband). If I made a large baby quilt for her then I think the Whimsical Flower but if it were the one for hubby, I'm going to assume my big guy won't necessarily like those flowers on his. lol In that case, I might choose the Swirls or the Wiggle lines. I really love the feathers you've shown that appear to look like hearts.
    Thank you for the great giveaway.

    I love the Feathers. Of course, I'd have to give this to my mother in law as I don't have a finished quilt top at this time and probably can't have one ready by January.

  30. Susana NeigerDecember 12, 2011 at 12:35 PM

    Is zentangle the one that's a combination of different styles, so each block is unique? I love that. That's what I'd pick.

  31. SherrylDecember 12, 2011 at 2:17 PM

    Oh how very generous of you! If I won, I would gift the quilting to my mother who has always wanted to have some quilting done by a pro - and I'm guessing she would pick the feathers or the wiggle lines (like mother, like daughter). :-)

    My all-time favorite are feathers of all sizes and shapes. I still can't do them as I need more practice. I sure could use your
    expertise on an upcoming quilt for a family member as I want it to be very special. Thanks for the giveaway and have a great holiday.
