My favorite one is the Wallflower one! I don't quilt, so I don't have a favorite pattern. So here's a joke instead! Two peanuts were walking down the street. One was assaulted.:-)

I 'm pretty smitten with the Deco Rose bag, but all 3 are absolutely gorgeous.
I haven't really been quilting for long so I don't have an allegiance to any one pattern.
Barbara said…
I like the Deco Rose bag - such a bright, happy color.

I have yet to make a quilt so have no favorite patterns. I did sign up for a beginners BOM class at Craftsy but haven't found time to start it yet. Thankfully there is no expiration date on the class!
Jessica said…
I'd love to win the morning glory! As for favorite pattern . . . not sure. I like most things by Elizabeth Hartman and am start a stamp quilt, soon!
Danielle said…
I love all of the bags but my favorite is the Morning Glory bag. I haven't quilted yet but I love the look or chevron and hexagon quilts. My favorite quilt that I own was made by my greatgrandmother; she made little southern belles out of various shapes and fabrics. Thanks for the giveaway!
nicole w said…
i love all three - i can't decide!! i can think of outfits i'd want to have all three with! :) unfortunately, i don't sew, so I don't have a favorite pattern. i want to learn to sew though. until then, i love to try to win some of these beautiful hand made items!! thank you!

Sis-O said…
Tough one but i think Morning Glory. Thank you.
Andrea said…
They're all so cute! If I had to choose it would be the Deco Rose one.

I don't quilt or sew though - don't get me wrong, I want to get into it, but my sewing machine is unreachable right now. My favorite knitting pattern at the moment however, is Lavaliere by Cecily Glowick MacDonald.
Lisa E said…
I would have to pick Morning Glory. Of your tutorials, I would pick the crayon tote -- very cute. Otherwise, I love making modern quilts.
Mama Lusco said…
LOVE the Morning Glory tote! I like Melissa Stamel's doll quilt tutorial. Thank you, mamalusco at ortelco dot net
TheFancyFritter said…
I love the Deco Rose bag. I love the pattern. My favorite quilt pattern is a basic charm pack design. Thanks so much!
Dulce said…
Wallflower would definitely be my pick! I love it! :D I don't really quilt but I do want to try my hand at those quilt coasters I've seen on the internet.

Libby said…
Morning Glory is very 'me', although I was tempted by deco Rose because it would be different.

and for quilting, I love anything that involves Dresden plates :)
i love the deco rose bag, lovely matching colors. thanks for the chance.

Sam said…
I think the morning glory is my favourite, but it is close! I don't really quilt, so I don't have a favourite quilt pattern - my grandmother makes some gorgeous ones, so any of the ones she makes!
The morning glory bag is just gorgeous!

My favourite quilt tutorial is the strip-pieced 'Trip around the world' tutorial here: http://quiltville.com/tatw.shtml

I say favourite - it's the one I'm using to make my very first quilt!
ellen said…
Really, I like them all, but the wall flower one on the left is my favorite.
antmee said…
I love them all but the Morning Glory is my favourite.
Kate said…
They are all incredible, but if you forced my to pick, I'd say Morning Glory. I'd be honored to win any of the three though. I have always loved Rita's (Red Pepper Quilts) scrap border quilt tutorial. It was the first quilt I started, and it really made me feel like quilting was something I could do, not just an art form for others. Thanks for the generous giveaway! akmajor(at)gmail(dot)com
Lindsay said…
I like all there but the red one is my favorite
kbzelazny said…
I like the Wallflower bag the best! Thanks.I am making a quilt now using the chevron pattern by Jeni Baker of In Color Order blog. It's on the Moda Bake Shop website.
Hilachas said…
I like the Morning Glory bag. The 241 is one of my favorites and I'd love to win one so I don't have to make one :) Thanks for the opportunity to win your giveaway.
carrie said…
deco rose is my favorite. The quilt pattern that I'm loving lately is the urban log cabin. Simple but beautiful!

fern said…
morning glory is my favourite. and I don't quilt, so I don't have a favourite pattern... :-(
Ann said…
All are lovely! Maybe I lean towards the Deco Rose. I have this pattern bookmarked to buy and make. I made a candy box tutorial on moda by Jaybird quilts which came out great.
Emily. said…
Morning Glory is my favorite! I have this pattern but haven't tried it yet. It looks great! No favorite quilt patterns just yet...I'm a newbie. ;)
Annabanana said…
Oh...it's a hard choice, but I think my favorite is Morning Glory!
Thanks for the giveaways!

morning glory or wallflower for me. I've been wanting to try this pattern forever!

Kim said…
My favorite is Wall Flower....though I love them all! It was tough to pick just one!

ONe of my favorite patterns is the "OH My Stars" that was a QAL.
Sew Charitable said…
I love the Morning Glory one. I like a simple quilt like a one fabric but the detail is in the thread and sewing. Or simple blocks.
twelfthzodiac said…
OMGoodness, I couldn't possibly choose one of those! They are all awesome!
I love a good strip quilt...but Swoon & Retro Flowers are gorgeous (& look much more impressive)
Anonymous said…
I love the Deco Rose. As for my favorite pattern, it's whatever I am working on so right now I am currently working on an angel wall hanging for my mom so that's my favorite.

tuft said…
I SO want to make myself one of these bags, but first i have to find the extra hours in the day. And i love the morning glory one best.
Regarding quilt patterns, this one - http://kateconklindesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2010/01/theres-square-in-there.html is such a quick and easy quilt that just works every time.

Donna Baker said…
beautiful! I like Morning Glory, great colors! I have only made 2 quilts so far (flying geese) and flannel rag quilt so I haven't even followed a pattern (yet) but I love Jaybird Quilts patterns!
Angela said…
The 241 totes are gorgeous and hey I would be happy if anyone of them could come and live at my home.
My favourite pattern - well there are just too many to be able to say just one - but I do enjoy patterns with stitcheries included in them.
jeifner said…
I like the wallflower one so much. The tutorial that I thought was so handy was Stamp Collection Block Tutorial by Oh Fransson. I was thinking of doing something like that and had it all figured out in my head, found her tutorial and said, "Yes! That's exactly what I meant to do!" It was all done and in pictures.
Fran said…
The 241 tote is such a great bag - your fabric choices are fantastic! My favourite is the Wallflower one. My favourite pattern is Elizabeth Hartman's Small Plates quilt pattern from her first book. Thanks for the lovely giveaway.
Birgit said…
I think Deco Rose is my favorite design, but, in fact, all three bags are lovely. Thanks for the chance to win one of them.

I don't have any favorite pattern or tutorial, simply because I don't have enough time for sewing at the moment. I am glad if I can keep up with my photography -- hah!

Sunny greetings from Germany,
Birgit
ELNM said…
I think I'd choose Wallflower - I love the color combo and the dots! My favorite tutorial is "make a Doll Suitcase" by Prudent Baby - I want one! Thanks for the giveaway!
laurawilson25 said…
I would love to win the deco rose pattern. My favorite tutorial was one teaching you how to mitre corners on wraparound binding on quilts and other things. I use it all the time. Thanks for the giveaway!

Kate said…
They are all really pretty, but I'd probably choose the Morning Glory one, but any would be great!

My fav tutorial/pattern right now is just a simple String Quilt - I'm making a queen size one for our bed and it's taking a while, though it's fun!!

I'd love to win the wallflower or the morning glory one!

I love the pattern from cluckclucksew.com that has circles sewn onto squares and you cut them in fourths and then resew them all mixed up. Can't come up with the name right now - but that's a favorite...love getting to use all sorts of fabric in one project!
They are all grand! But I like the Deco Rose one best :)

Tough choice, but I think the Deco Rose is my favorite! I don't quilt at all, but I love cathedral windows.
Flower Bubbles said…
I love the Deco Rose bag! I am not a quilter (yet) but have it on my list of things to learn one day. I love Memory quilts. I think it's a wonderful way to preserve fabrics from treasured items.

Deco Rose please. I don't have a favorite pattern... I love them ALL. :)

I love all 3 I must get a pattern for this bag because it is by far my favourite bag design to look at and everyone who I know of who has used one loves it too.
In order of preference
Morning Glory 1st,
Wall Flower 2nd,
Deco Rose 3rd.
redzshadow said…
I really like Deco Rose. I don't know if I have a favorite quilt pattern. I like Elizabeth Hartman's blog. I like her modern quilts.
Donna said…
The bags are gorgeous. If I must pick a favorite, I guess it would be Morning Glory. I've never made a real quilt (yet), so I don't have a favorite quilt pattern.
Marilize said…
I absolutely love 'Morning Glory' - but they are all very beautiful. I do not have a favourite quilting pattern, as I am yet to have a go at it. I do love the ones that incorporate freeform circles though - it makes me think of bubbles and hot summer days.

Thank you for a great prize and the chance to win it.

My favorite is the middle purse. I like the zip pouch tutorial from Crazy corners.
Denise said…
Those are really cute bags. I love the blue one (which surprised me, since I am usually a pink girl). Any of them would be lovely to have. I don't have a favorite quilt pattern or tutorial, but my favorite tutorial is one for turning a man's button down shirt into a girls' dress. I liked it even more when I found similar directions in a magazine in my collection from 1918. Thanks for the giveaway!
Megan said…
I love the Morning Glory tote! I've seen the 241 bag on many blogs, but haven't bitten the bullet to make my own. My favorite tutorial on your site is the crayon tote.
