Being a visual person I see the pattern and color first. I don't think I could name a favorite designer. Whatever I see that I like, I do my version through their inspiration. I have to say thanks to all of them!
peace

Lori Holt. She does marvelous, home-like applique patterns. Now she is designing fabric, too.

Which designers from Bigfork Bay do you like?

I LOVE Debi Hubbs. Her Dancing Chicjens and Crowa with red shoes make me laugh. I also LOVE Brenda Yirsa's patterns. They are stunning.
