Blogger’s Quilt Festival
May 28th, 2010
Amy’s Mr. Linky says I have 10 hours to post - and then he’s gone. Wham bam thank you Mr. Linky man. So squeaking in under the wire and getting this post done before my market and Iowa posts… here’s my Blogger’s Quilt Festival entry.
My Anne Sutton of Bunnyhill BOM. My “Dude, Where’s My BOM” quilt. My favorite quilt I ever made. More info on Anne’s A Tiskit A Tasket BOM here. More info on my process here here and setting here.
On a side note, THANK YOU to EVERYONE for the kind, sweet, funny and made-my-day-with-a-cherry-on-top comments on my previous posts. I haven’t been able to reply to all the comments - please know that I’m soooooooo very touched and honored by everyones kindness. THANK YOU! xoxoMo

Your fabric is awesome in person.
This is an AWESOME quilt! I just love it!
May 29th, 2010Yours has to be my favorite version of this quilt. It’s so much happy in one place! Love it!
May 30th, 2010This is my very favorite EVER Bunny Hill Block quilt. You Rock SW1. What are you going to do with it — are you hanging it somewhere???
May 30th, 2010I still think you should let me keep this quilt at my house. You know, in case your house catches on fire and all.
The yellow polka dot fabric was inspired.
May 30th, 2010A very pretty version of the Bunnyhill design :) Like the rick-rack handles. Gives avery romantic feel to the quilt.
May 30th, 2010I love everything about this quilt. It’s delicious.
May 30th, 2010Oh I am so in love with this quilt. It’s seriously one of my favorite quilts. ever. period. So there. I hope you’re feeling better finally! I heard butter teeth’s boyfriend dumped her! Maybe she’ll get some crest white strips so she can get Casey to fall in love with her…xoxoxo…………………………………………………………………………………………kma
May 30th, 2010Where do you have your quilt? Mine is hanging in my bedroom. I love seeing it everyday! Gosh I love yours so!!
Did I read you were sick at Quilt Market? I hope you’re all better now!
May 30th, 2010That is soooo pretty Monica. You did the bunny lady proud!!
May 30th, 2010I couldn’t quite believe my eyes when I saw this quilt Monica. I ended up on flickr and had the pleasure of looking at the blocks in detail. That is really both precious and gorgeous. Goodie baskets galore and such fun rose imagery in the fabrics. On your wall it looks like it’s small, it must be a wall hanging? Have fun at the market! What a talent you are!
May 30th, 2010Liebe Monica,

Ganz liebe Grüße
Sabine
what a charming quilt–what a creative BOM.
May 31st, 2010Come see my antique entries
Well first off your applique is perfection. Second there is that buttery yellow dot. Love it. And then the sashing in white is perfect with the scrappy accent. The sashing is what makes this quilt amazing. It is inspiring to me to think about sashing being a star of a quilt.
June 2nd, 2010Amazing, amazing, amazing quilt! The name is rad- the applique is awesome!
June 2nd, 2010This is so adorable. I love all the little elements that add up to pretty finished project.
Enjoy your week.
June 2nd, 2010Monica, your quilt is beautiful!! wow. also just have to say that i loved meeting you at Market!! Only wish we’d had a bit more time to float/goof around together. Maybe next time. Hope you’re all better and enjoying the onset of summer. xxoo kate
June 3rd, 2010OMG. I’m in love. That quilt is just GORGEOUS!
June 3rd, 2010Your cuteness skillz never cease to impress. What a HAPPY quilt. Guess that really is your theme! Be seeing you soon, right? RIGHT???
June 4th, 2010The beauty of your quilts makes me want to quit my day job and just spend all day every day making beauties like you have! Suzie
June 4th, 2010Totally LOVE this quilt!
I’ve been looking at it for days.
I’m so inspired to create one of my own “fire” quilts!
Can you tell me what type of applique technique you used? I love how the corners of your basket curve just a little and are not pointy.
Thanks for sharing,
Jane

August 30th, 2010Hi Monica,
September 17th, 2010I just want you to know that I have been inspired by this quilt - and have been making the blocks out of scrapbook paper. It’s fun for me - and although I do not have a quilt - I have the enjoyment of creating something colorful. Thank you for inspiring all of us. You are extremely gifted!
