Nice group to choose from - WOW :!:

susiequilt 07-18-2011 06:24 PM

They are all lovely!
I'm not sure what criteria to use to judge.
I guess it will have to be my favorite fabric, color and overall look of the quilt.
I've narrowed it down to two!

Lynnie25 07-19-2011 12:47 AM

Beautiful quilts, such a hard decision to choose just one but I have just cast my vote.

Well done to all entry participants.

Yeah, that's the way I feel and I'm also down to two choices.

wow great quilts hard decison

Yooper32 07-19-2011 03:31 AM

You're stressing my mind, trying to decide when they are all so well-done. Thought I had a winner, then I kept scrolling....Oh, d'dear!

Wonnie 07-19-2011 03:40 AM

Does anyone know the name of the fussy cut floral quilt beneath the one with the eagles? Thank you.

Just what I was thinking!!! :lol: Great job on all of these quilts! :thumbup:

mommamac 07-19-2011 04:12 AM

You all look like winners to me - exposing backsides makes it twice as hard to pick just one! I think I've chosen a fav but have to check them out again before casting my vote.

Baloonatic 07-19-2011 05:59 AM

Like I don't have ENOUGH frustration in my life you want me to choose??? I caaan't......

I can't get it to come up. I get the rules for the contest. Please help.

Quilt Mom 07-19-2011 06:09 AM

To all the quilters: Wonderful job! It is so hard to pick one out above the rest. Good luck!

pbreon 07-19-2011 06:41 AM

They are all fab!!!!

cowgirlquilter 07-19-2011 06:50 AM

Can I vote for them all? can I, can I? ~~Waving my hand~~

fivepaws 07-19-2011 06:53 AM

How could we possibly vote for only one. There are three that I adore. I will have to cogitate for awhile. Boy oh boy you guys are all so good.

cctx. 07-19-2011 10:31 AM

I love them all, so pretty!

For those who read the rules just like I did but still may be as stupid as me when it comes to computers...
If you click on Patrice's name in her avatar and go to
"send private message"...that won't work. Apparently that's not her e-mail. How do I know that? Because that's how I voted for #7 (just so you know) and I got the dreaded "private message" back to follow the rules. I got it now, I think, you have to write down the e-mail addy in her posting and then leave the board and go to your e-mail account and send her an e-mail that way. Seems a little crazy to me but what do I know about 'puters. Sorry about the confusion, Patrice, I thought I was playing nice and going by the rules.

bearisgray 07-19-2011 12:46 PM

Can we cast votes for two quilts?

Or are we limited to just one?

Rhonda 07-19-2011 01:21 PM

Sorry only one vote per customer Bear! LOL

As for the voting we are trying our best to not make this a popularity contest for the people and instead make it about voting for the best quilt. So the email is more annonymous and allows for a seperation from the board to ensure the votes are accurate. Just a precaution to make sure everything is fair and even for all.

bearisgray 07-19-2011 02:31 PM

Thanks - one vote limit really is the way to go -

There are two that I like equally well - may have to resort to eeny-meeny-miney-mo

A quick crash course on how to vote step by step......

***Pay attention please****


Copy PatriceJ. specific instructions where she states her specifics with YOUR MOUSE.

Next Log out of here.

Go to your home email/home page and go to your inbox where you check your personal emails and open a new message to send out just like when you're emailing your buddy, relative or family.

With your NEW reply BLANK, then PASTE what PatriceJ specifies on how to vote.

Copy, got that....

Next on the same page you're on, copy PatriceJ email address with YOUR MOUSE and put that to the sender information.

Next, COPY the TITLE that is still in your REPLY Email and PUT THAT on the TITLE HEADING with YOUR # VOTE.

Next, delete any unnecessary information that you still have copied in your text reply and STATE YOUR Board NAME.

And Last Hit SEND, that should do it.

Thanks for ReAdInG ThIs/

iowabelle 07-19-2011 03:48 PM

I'm loving that so many of you did pieced backs. It fascinates me what ideas you have to add some surprise.

ShabbyTabby 07-19-2011 04:59 PM

Oh, my so many beautiful masterpieces. I have several in mind that I would just love to have a copy of !!! You ladies are so very artistic with colors and the quilting is exquisite...Good Luck to all.

Dixie, you make me feel so "normal." I couldn't figure it out either; but I finally tried what you did and then I got it.

:lol: :lol:

DebbieJJ 07-20-2011 12:15 AM

Well.......I followed the directions to send an email to Patrice, but I forgot to put my board name in it. So, had to send a 2nd email. Sorry, Patrice! :roll: :roll:

I voted already. But I guess I misunderstood....by traditionally pieced. I might have entered..but I thought my projects were to modern looking. I will know for next time.:)

M.Elizabeth 07-20-2011 02:28 PM

#9 gets my vote! But all are beautiful with qualities unique to each.

scoobertina 07-20-2011 04:38 PM

and how do I pick just one? they are all beautiful!

Did you send an email to Patrice with your vote? Read the rules if you need to see how to send and what to include in your email.

Anael 07-21-2011 09:45 AM

This is very hard! I have been looking several days now and still don't know which one I like best. It's a pity we have to vote for only one! Good luck to all who entered :D

M.Elizabeth 07-21-2011 01:00 PM

Rhonda,
YES! After I voted, I realized I needed to send a personal e-mail to Patrice, so I did just that.

Rhonda 07-21-2011 01:12 PM

Good I don't want anyone to be left out in the voting!

And for anyone who didn't have time to enter anything this time I will be posting another one when this one is over!
