OOooohh, Which to choose????? They're all so yummeeee! :O)
I'm inspired by the quilt calendars I hang in my sewing room each year. I always get the kind that include the patterns -- it's frustrating to fall in love with a quilt and not have the directions. I'm not clever enough, or patient enough to figure it out.
I bought one of these calendars years ago, its a great source of inspiration, highly recommend it!
I ordered that first one the other day! Someone on the HGTV Quilting and Needlework Forum posted the 6.00 sale and I had to go over... Now, that calendar wasn't 6.00 but I still had to have it! :)
I always get my Mom a quilt calendar - in fact, just got Kim Diehl's for her (x-mas presie). And I like the perpetual calendars - get one each year for myself.
I love to see waht others have made .... they inspire me and put a smile on my face as I look at the quilt to see what all they have done to create a quilt worthy of being selected for the calendar. I like to have a few around the house I have a Quilter's Vlock a day Calendar by Debby Kratovil and I also picked up the cd for it sew when I want to build a block it is that much easier. And I can use it year after year.
in stitches
Are there any that come with a cd to make the quilts in the calendar?? THAT would be a cool thing!
Love the Award Winning Quilts calendar--I have last years hanging in my kitchen right now. I also make it a rule that I cannot look ahead at the quilts so they'll be a surprise each month! :)
All of them! Well, especially the Kim Diehl Simply Beautiful and the Award Winning Quilts wall calendars really take my fancy.
I know it doesn't compare to the award winning quilts, but April's quilt in That Patchwork Place is pretty special to me - since I'm Nana Girl :)! It's a thrill to represent Kim Brackett's genius with my quilt "Flowers for Nana Girl"!
I always get one of the large quilt calendars. I haven't decided which one yet. I haven't gotten the 365 quilt patterns one in a while. I kept 'hinting' for it, but, I guess I'll just have to get it myself, since my guys didn't take the 'hint'. I have several years worth in the basement.
i tried twice to get my giveaway to link but it wouldn't it says barbara and barbara woods but wont link back to my blog
I have the Block-A-Day calendar and enjoy it very much. There's an accompanying CD, but I haven't purchased it. I really enjoying seeing a new block each morning before I go to work :-)
I am not ready!!!!
I just bought the new Block-A-Day CD - can't wait to get it!
that Award Winning Quilts looks fabulous - I always try and have 1 or 2 quilt calendars around for inspiration
Ugh! Are you sure? Wasn't Christmas just last week? You are a cruel woman.
I like the quilting engagement calendars because they have more photos (1 per week) than the wall calendars. But I might get that awrd-winning quilt calendar to brighten my cubicle, it sure is inspirational!
Nunca he tenido un calendario de este tipo. Debe ser divertido cada mes descubrir un quilt diferente.
I was just looking at Quilting Calendars again today. I think I've settled on wanting 2013 Award winning quilts. It surely must be chock full of inspiration. I have never actually had a quilt calendar before, but about three years ago this new year ago, my sister gave me a day by day calendar with cats on it. The best thing about those pages where the grids on top. I saved every single one and it took me to years to use up all my grid paper on quilt sketches. I tried to give her the hint last year that she should give me another, but alas she didn't pick up on it, so I figure I'm stuck buying my own!
