| Madison, scrap sorter extraordinaire |
As you can see the blue scrap bag is overflowing! Today my granddaughter Maddy came over and helped me go through my scraps. She was just as bad as any quilter....."let's give this one away, oh keep that one, it's my favorite."
As you can see there is a lot!
She wanted to do a yoga pose with her embroidery thread......as you can see the fabric is as tall as an almost 7 year old.
She wanted to do the give away....uh her rules, so get ready........

Hello. I vote for #9. I like that little quilt,I like the reflection of one in the mirror and I like that you can see a little of Maddy in the other mirror. I love scraps and blue is my favorite color. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteI love the Love one. Madly reminds me of my granddaughter this summer designing her own little quilt
ReplyDeleteI'm really drawn to #5, it's fun and different. Great post.
ReplyDeleteI like the colors of #7. I'd have voted for #10, but it didn't have a number (I'm impressed with anyone who has neat fabric!)
ReplyDeleteI love blue in all its shades. Have since I was a kid. I do not know how to pick one quilt as a favorite, but if it must be just one I say #2. I love the randomness and the colors. I am not good at random. LOL
ReplyDeleteThe pictures of Maddy and the scraps are great. She looks like a fellow fabric lover to me.
Looks like you had a fabulous day!
ReplyDeleteI like 5. Great little photographer!
ReplyDeleteI can't get over how adorable Maddy is - and so much personality! I'm torn between #5 and #8. I love the blues in #5 but my vote is for #8 because I think it was a creative response to our guild challenge that year.
ReplyDeleteMaddy is a great helper! I think I would have to vote for #8.
ReplyDeleteI like Number 8! Scrappy Deliciousness! Would love some of your beautiful scraps!
ReplyDeleteOooooh #8 is Awesome...but I LOOOOVE the Hearts! So #7 is my Favorite!!
ReplyDeleteMaddy did grrrreat job helping you sort too! Thanks for such a Fun Give-a-way she thought up too! :)
#8, hands down! Have we seen that one before?
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun giveaway idea! I rarely enter them because I already have a healthy stash, but it might surprise you that I have very few blues ~ so I'm in! Thanks for the summer fun, Kelly & Maddy
It's great that Maddy is doing the giveaway! I like quilt number 6 the best! sarah@forrussia.org
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh Kelly, that is such a yummy pool of blue. Mandy is just darling and her idea for the giveaway is fun. Great pictures, hard to choose but I love the umbrella and the beach chair. Wish I was there! Thank you for this chance.
ReplyDelete#9 because LOVE is what it's all about and I "love" you peeking around the corner, lol
ReplyDeleteI like 7 because of the hearts even though I had to think long and hard to choose just one. Maddy, you are a very creative young gal and a fun person. love your giveaway. pick me pick me! lol thanks for the chance to win.......... come visit my blog and see my money cake it is fun too!
ReplyDeleteI vote for #5; it just makes me happy. You are lucky to have a wonderful little Maddy to spend time with. Would love to have scraps!
ReplyDeleteI love the Pink/Blue hearts and I normally do not like hearts at all! I've been making a lot of string/scrap quilts lately so the blues would be a great addition to my string bags!
ReplyDeleteOoh, ooh, number 5 if it's an international give away, and how I'd love your scraps. Have you rubbed your talent Into the fabrics with your hands? How great to have a lovely assistant.
ReplyDeleteSuch a toughie! I love 6, 7, and 8 all! But I pick 7 for the summer :) thanks for the chance to share in some blues....
ReplyDeleteNumber 8 is my favorite! I think this is a wonderful way to do a giveaway, love your ingenuity, Maddy!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day, Mickie
I love #9 - Because its "LOVE" and bright, happy and sweet! Lovely photos Mandy took and I think she is clever in her way of sorting scraps ! :) thanks!!
ReplyDeletewhat a fun fun post. Maddy did a great job taking photos! I need more information on quilts #6 and #8 !!
ReplyDeleteI vote for number 6 and I'll send you an email to show you why.
I love your happy and free spirited quilts, I love seeing Maddy in posts, I love your style, but I don't love blue, so let someone else win.
p.s. I LOVE your bird and nest quilt!!
ReplyDeleteI like #1. I like Maddy's creativity and sense of fun and ability to see potential in things! I'm working on a blue scrappy Leaders and Enders project now, so I'd love your blue scraps!
ReplyDeleteI like #5 Birds and Nests and leaves... Nice Reminder of the Outdoors and there is Blue in the Quilt too...
ReplyDeleteI love #6. My mother would have loved that design.
ReplyDeleteYou are the best grandma. Teaching Maddy to love sewing with love for fabric but also all about the fun we have with friends and social connections. That's just great! Looks like #8 is winning but I like #5 best!
ReplyDeleteYou have a very fine photographer there ! I like all the quilts she chose to take pictures of but..... I'll choose #7 because she is 7 ! I could sure use some blue fabrics !
ReplyDeleteLove them all, but if I have to pick a favorite....it's #7. :) I love blue, so would love to win some of your blue scraps!
ReplyDeleteFave #9, but really it's the yoga pose
ReplyDeleteI vote for #5, the bluebirds of happiness!
ReplyDeleteI love the beach...so I vote for #3!
ReplyDeleteI love #9
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great giveaway Maddy !!!
I think #8 is pretty awesome….and so is having a grand daughter who is interested in all things creative!
ReplyDeleteNow who wouldn't want a cutie patootie helper like Maddy?? Blue is her color!! I ALSO look good surrounded by blue!! (hint hint) ha!
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm torn between 5 & 8. I'm a bird watcher/lover so I was immediately drawn to the sweet birdies, but when my eyes saw # 8 they
screamed CANDY CANDY!!!………but then there's # 7…….swwoon!
#7 Love the patchwork hearts with all the different fabrics, just puts a smile on your face. :) I like Maddy's album, good job taken pictures.

My vote is #9! Love the colors and the simplicity of the "Love" quilt! Maddy's photos are better than most of mine and you are so lucky that you have a helper- all I hear, is "Mommmmmmmmmm, can you get your fabrics out of the playroom?"
ReplyDeleteallisonpogany@gmail.com
Maddy is so cute and creative! I have to say I like #8.
ReplyDeleteI like #7, no, wait, #9. OHHHHHH. I can't decide. I like them both. I wish I got to spend time with my granddaughter but I hardly ever get to see her. Maddy sure looks like she's having a great time! Thanks
ReplyDeleteThat would be hard to choose, because they are all lovely, but I really like the one of someone peeking around the corner in the mirror. You must tell Maddy that she is super talented with both fabric and camera!
ReplyDeleteWow, these quilts all use color so nicely so it's hard to choose.....but, I do LOVE #6!
ReplyDeleteI like anything beachy so I would choose #3. All of them look so happy though!
ReplyDeletelove 8, thanks for the chance
ReplyDeleteI tried to answer from your blog but it didn't work. I love your blog and I have gone back to the beginning. Maddy looked like she was having a lot of fun. I would like to vote for #3. I just love the shore.
ReplyDeleteJean Z.
Oh Ijust love the ric-rac on No. 6--that is my choice for a favorite,,and blue--oooohhh, I don't have a whole lot of blue...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is that cute little house quilt- #8! Besides eight is my lucky number! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI think Maddie will be ready for her own blog soon, I like her style! It's so hard to pick a favourite but if I really had to I think I'd pick the one with Our Lady in a heart because that was the quilt I saw on Flckr and led me to your blog. If my name is chosen you can give my vote to Suz of Patchwork and Play, I have an overflowing scrap bin that really needs a good sorting out.
ReplyDeleteLove them all. But #6 pull on my heart strings. Lovely girl.
ReplyDeleteI vote for #5. I am trying to save enough scraps for an ocean waves quilt so would love to win your giveaway.
ReplyDeleteMi voto es para el # 3
ReplyDeleteaun que es difÃcil decidir ,son todos tan bonitos
¡¡¡tanto color!!! pero el 3, ese mar me gusta tanto.....
saludos
I love #5! I too have a grandchild that hangs out in the "studio". He's almost 5, but a prolific sewer! Sits on my lap with his hands on mine while "he" sews and yells "PIN!" at the top of his lungs so the machine stops and he takes out the pin and puts it in the pin cushion! I think the blue scraps would be a wonderful project for a bird quilt like yours! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDelete#7- all those happy hearts make ME happy!!
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to pick. I love all of their scrappy happy themes! I guess my favorite would be the house quilt with the very fashionable lady of the house. Thanks for the awesome giveaway. My granddaughter and I need more scraps to play with! (Actually I sew and she plays - she is four). She would love a pile like this cover herself with.
ReplyDeleteIt's a tie between #5 & #7. :)
ReplyDeleteThe last thing I need is more fabric but I can't resist all that blue. Given that it's summer, my favorite is #3 - the beach chair and umbrella.

ReplyDeleteOMGoodness, your granddaughter is adorable! All of your quilts are beautiful:)
ReplyDeleteI love the free formed hearts! What a fun day you must have had with your helper!
ReplyDeletei like the bird one!
ReplyDeleteI love number 5 with the birds. I have been loving blues lately
ReplyDeleteMaddy, you are quite the helper and it was fun to see what pretty things caught your eye. Thanks for sharing those pictures. :o)
ReplyDeleteKelly, I'm loving #8 - the fussy cut lady in the doorway is plain awesome (so is the border) on this one. Oh, I think I would be adding your beautiful blue scraps to the piece I shared yesterday. Love me some blue scraps! ;o)
I love them all but number 2 is the bestest. What a fun day! Wish I had a great helper like that! She is SO cute and you're a great (and lucky) grandma! Stephanie
ReplyDeleteOf course my favorite quilt is #9, which just happens to be my favorite number as well. I would love your scraps...you know me. But even more, I would love your quilting relationship with your granddaughter. Maybe someday I'll have that with mine.
ReplyDeleteHave to say that, while they're all beautiful, 7 is my favourite. So sweet!
ReplyDelete#8 is my favourite, anything with a house and fussy cutting has me smiling :)
ReplyDelete#9 because "all you need is love"! Such a happy thought expressed thru gorgeous colors....
ReplyDeleteI vote for #8! Love the colours and prints. :o)
ReplyDeleteI vote for #9!
