Well, I really like fall... I like the actual season & I like the colors that go with it. Xmas is good, too.

I really like to make crafts around Christmas time....

Hi
I seem to have many autumn colored quilts, runners, and wall hangings.....must be my favorite! I also like winter and snowmen, guess fall and winter could be in a race for first place!

My favorite is fall. Love the earth tones mixed with the fall colors.

Probably the fall. I have an absolute fetish when it comes to fabric with pumpkins on it.

Hands down it fall for me .. if I look at my stash it is primarily fall colors and coodinates. There are such beautiful Christmas fabrics every year and I do love them but its such a limited use , I have really backed off making Christmas projects.

Anything Christmas - love red and green!

Season's and holidays sneak up on me and I never have enough time to make anything related to them. I'm terribly slow at everything I do. I have project boxes for fall and Valentines day quilts...just haven't gotten to them yet. Maybe next year. Sigh.

Winter. I like it because I can make snowmen. After all, who doesn't smile when they see a snowman? I also like fall.

Mmmmm, fall is good. BUT, I really love bright colors that remind me odd summertime. Also red white and blue!!!!

I like making things for just about every holiday season. I have partically finished quilts and crafts for every holiday, lol, accept Easter, now that I think of it, I just need to get back to finishing them. It's been a while since I have sewn anything together...

I love winter, and Halloween

Hemlock Tea 04-18-2012 06:04 AM

Halloween's the only holiday I really celebrate. I've never made a seasonal/holiday quilt, and I don't decorate, but I bought these two patterns because they are just too cute:

Summer. Probably b/c blue and yellow are my two favorite fabric colors and I have the summers off from work (plenty of time to quilt).

I don't usually make quilts for a particular holiday. My preferred quilting time is spring, then summer. When I lived in Canada, and was used to a climate that covered the outdoors in cold whiteness, my craft season was winter. Now that I live in the South I prefer the hot months - when it is too hot to be outside!

Christmas time!

Jackie Spencer 04-18-2012 07:33 PM

Fall and Christmas.

Christmas for gifts, not quilts. I don't like seasonal quilts.
