I would love simply half yards .
Enjoyed the podcast and hearing about the declutter work you did – the results look great!
I love #2!!

I think the Simply Half Yard #1 book would be a great go to book when I need to use! Thanks for sharing out of your stash!
I like all3! But if I have to choose, I’d pick number 1.
I enjoy your podcast so much!!
I love listening to your podcast.! I am interested in the 1st option – half yard quilt. Thanks for offering this give away!
Any of those patterns would be great. Thank you!
Neat Patterns! I like #2 ! Thanks for sharing!
I really like #3
Your podcast make my drive to and from work so much more enjoyable. I love that you cover many topics. I like items 1 and 2.
Good morning Kristin. Your podcast is wonderful as always. Thanks you so much for sharing the good and the bad. We all struggle but somehow we always think we are alone in our struggles.
I would love the Simple Half Yard Quilts. I was just looking to get that book. Second choice is the Vintage Block 2 color quilt pattern
Thank you
Deanna
#1. Or
#2
My favorite is the two-color quilt pattern.
Thank you
Like almost everyone else, #1 piques my interest the most. I was glad to hear you’re still doing kombucha, you haven’t mentioned it in awhile. It was my pandemic hobby too. I may get a little crazier with the flavors, but my favorite is still the straight kombucha.
I’ll be listening to the latest episode tonight as I stitch away and am looking forward to it!
Because I tend to make more table runners and toppers than full-size quilts, I can see using all 3 sets to make my smaller projects. Looks like so much fun!
Your podcast was the perfect accompaniment while pinning a queen size quilt for a dear friend’s granddaughter as a graduation present. This process started in November and my goal is to complete it this week! I would love pattern #2 as I will soon be ready for a new quilting project!
I love listening to your podcast your voice is so relaxing. I love all the giveaways but if I had to choose it would be #2.
Enjoy listening to your podcast. Thanks for what you do.
I would be interested in books 1 and 2 with 2 being my first choice. I am working on Lori’s great granny squared quilt now. I’m so slow!😊
I am interested in #2: the two-color quilt book.
I just found your podcast today! I like all 3 patterns but #3 is my favorite!
Love your podcast–all the segments! I started at the beginning a couple months ago, and I’m excited to be current, so I will enter the giveaway to celebrate–all the patterns are beautiful, but 3 is my favorite number, so I’ll choose #3 😊
I am interested in #2. It’s so nice that you are doing a giveaway!
Love listening to your podcast. Really enjoy the variety of content you offer. Giveaways are awesome and I would be thrilled to win any of them.
I’m an avid podcast listener and have referred it to many of my quilting/reading/TV watching friends. Any of the three giveaways would be appreciated, but drawn mostly to Simply Half Yards, as I have several of that size fabric in my (too abundant) stash. Thanks for all that you share!!
Congratulations on your longevity with your podcast! I’m drawn towards #1, because the blocks will be bigger and I’ll get them done faster!😊
Would love to win 1 or 3
I’m a scrappy quilter – nearly 50 years of quilting generates a LOT of scraps. I’m drawn to #3 because 3 different patterns to use up scraps. I give away more than 95% of what I make so having a little variety is wonderful! Thank you for the giveaway & congrats to whoever wins!
Thank you so much for your giveaway! I would love #3 but they all look good!
I would love to win #1, The book would be right up my alley. Thanks for having the giveaway 🙂
Great podcast! I would be happy with any of the patterns. Just love quilting. It’s my stress manager! 😉
I always look forward to your podcasts 🥰 Number 2 interests me (if it’s not too late to enter)
I just found your podcast. If not too late, I am very interested in # 3.
I like all 3 they all sound good 😁 Love that you give fun stuff away ❤️
I would like to be considered for any of the three books
