Default Who is Your Favorite Quilt Pattern Designer?

I like different designers for different reasons, but one of my all time favorite quilt pattern designers is Karen Griska. Her stuff is always so colorful and exciting and also very scrap friendly.

I love Bargello and have made many of Eileen Wrights quilts.

"Maniac," that's beautiful! I was browsing on Etsy for quilt patterns and I came across this light and airy bargello pattern by Quilting Jays: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1931454...?ref=related-3

I would have a hard time picking a favorite. It depends on what kind of quilt I am making. I love Judy Niemeyer's stuff. I also like a lot of Edita Sytar's designs. Jenny Beyer has beautiful designs. Julie Herman of Jaybird designs is always coming up with new and innovative ideas using hexis and triangles.

My taste change over the years. My favorite right now is Dawn Heese of Linen Closet Quilts. I also like Jenny Doan for pre cut fabric patterns and Bonnie Hunter for scrappy.

I couldn't pick just one. I like Judy Niemeyer, Jacqueline de Jonge, McKenna Ryan, Edyta Sitar, Eileen Wright, and it goes on. Bonnie Hunter's great scrappy patterns too!

I agree I love many pattern designers can't pick just one.

I love Esther Aliu's beautiful patterns. Jinny Beyer has such rich usage of color in all of her quilts, and she is another one of my favorites. I am also very drawn to Erin Russek's patterns as well.
