Welcome, welcome! I’m so excited to have you here for the festival! Make sure that you are comfortable, there are so many beautiful quilts to inspire and awe you. When I hosted the Spring Festival I was blown away by the vastness of this online community, and all the talent too! This installment is bound to be just as exciting and fun, with new friends made too.I need to start with a big THANK YOU to the sponsors – check them out on the right, and later in this post too! Each sponsor has generously offered a piece of their shop/business, please take a few moments to click over to each one as they all have something different to offer.
Do you have a quilt to showcase? Excellent! Here’s what you need to do —1. Go write a post about your quilt. It doesn’t matter what size, style, or era it is from – there’s no judging here. In your post tell your quilt’s story. Also be sure to link back here so your readers can join in the fun too! Everyone is welcome – international readers that’s you too!2. Once you have posted on your blog, come back here with a link to that post. Not just your blog, click on the title of your post and get a link to that specific post. 6 months later there have been lots of readers clicking through links from the Spring Festival daily, if you post just to your blog they will not be able to find your Festival Entry.3. Insert your name and url in the Mr. Linky.4. Leave me a comment to be entered in to the giveaways. I’m curious to know where you are from, could you please add your general location to your comment!? Thanks!5. Now go check out all the other entries! Leave encouraging comments wherever you land, enjoy making new friends and be inspired. 6. If you are on flickr, consider adding your entry to the Group Pool, it’s great to see all the quilts in the gallery.

Hi All! I have posted my Fall Quilt for Blogger's Quilt Festival on my Cottage Garden Quilter blog. It is a mostly wool crazy quilt with fabrics from the 40's and 50's. I think it is charming! I'm excited for the weekend to be here because I plan to get around to see plenty of quilts. I'll start as soon as I get home from work Friday afternoon.
Here is a link to my post:

THANK YOU Amy for hosting this Quilt festival! I have made my post and added it to Mr Linky. I'm from Brussels, Belgium.
Sorry, my first link did not work out, so No. 20. is not me, but this time my link with Mr. Linky seems to be okay. I just didn't want you to think I was lying in order to win in the give away, although the prices are sure worth a bit of lying… :-)

Thanks for doing this again :0)
Crispy – New Salem North Dakota
Thank you so much Amy! Posted my favorite and added link.
I think this is the last step — this is truly a wonderful idea – it's a gloomy day in southern Maine (about 15 miles north of Kennebunkport) so browsing the list will replace cuddling on the couch with the latest book. Thank you so much for providing a connection to the world of quilters.
Yay! I think I linked correctly. So excited to join the qult festival! I chose a quilt that I actually made last year, for the Nie Nie benefit sale. I had some oops along the way, but it taught me a lot about myself and why I do what I do.
Thanks Amy!!

I think I did it! Got my blog all set with pictures AND linked to Mr. Linky!!! Yeah! I see my name listed..#56, but I also notice 2 lists, so I could be wrong in thinking I'm right…LOL
I just posted about my nana's quilt, and can't wait to get started reading everyone's entries! Oh, I'm in Kansas, about an hour from KC.
Oops, I had posted my link earlier this morning with Mister Linky and then didn't see it later. So I added it and now I notice that it's there twice on the second list – #7 and #49. Can you delete the #49 one please? Sorry about that.

It's really ELIZABETH E. from the OccasionalPiece blog and I wanted to say how fun it will be this weekend to go to an online Quilt Festival! Thank you, Amy, for posting this for us–I enjoyed the Spring Show very much.

Happy Quilting!
Thank you, Amy, for hosting! I'm a newbie when it comes to quilting. I have a love of fabric and color, but I'm impatient when it comes to putting quilts together. *grin* I have six quilts in progress, but only two finishes — Baby Dane is my offering for the festival. I'm from West Michigan, about 25 minutes north of Grand Rapids.
Thanks so much for taking the time to organize this Amy! So great! I'm in Los Angeles, CA!

What a fun idea ! Our little town of Hohenwald, Tennessee, is having Oktoberfest this weekend, and I found that it is just too much looking for a parking space, and walking all over creation……..but this virtual festival is perfect !
Thank you for the idea…..congratulations on its success, and thank you also, for including my link and quilt !
This is great! I'm Robin from Nebraska.
Hi Amy,
I have been reading your blog awhile now. I love all your creative ideas. I am originally from Taiwan. Do you know where is Taiwan? It is a small island in pacific. Some people called it Formosa. I have landed in Iowa for last 3 years.
Thank you for hosting this great blogger festival. I can't wait to visit each blog.
Have a wonderful weekend
Chase, Iowa/ Taiwan
You rock Amy! Thanks for hosting the Quilt Festival again! I am so looking forward to looking at all the quilts this weekend. I hope that you reserved a prize or two for yourself as a reward for all your work to organize this! : ) My entry is at:

Hi Amy,
Thanks for doing this for all of us! I'm live in the Houston Texas area. I'm really looking forward to looking at all the quilts. It's so fun to see what everyone creates.
Thanks for hosting this online quilt festival, Amy! I'm Carrie in the NYC area and I'm excited to browse through everyone's favorite quilts. Great idea!
Can't wait to get started looking through the entries! There are so many blogs that inspire me to spend less time sleeping and more time sewing her in Midland MI USA!
I'm lovin all the inspiration. This will be a nice way to spend down time over the long weekend & now all linked up *lucky numer 140*
Holly – currently wishing for orders in South Carolina
Hey – this is going to be so much fun! Can't wait to surf around and see all the quilts at the festival. We're getting snow here in Manitoba right now, so this will be a great past time while staying indoors this weekend (plus a little quilting mixed in!). – Marlene
Really easy to do this year – thanks for the extra directions on using the perma link for the right day's posting.
Hoping to have time this weekend to see them all… ha! it will take a month of looking because I always get distracted and go link hopping around.
Thank you for hosting the fun!

Hi Amy-Stephanie from Redmond, WA! Congrats on putting this together!!
Thanks for all the work, and thank you to the generous sponsors and talented quilters!
Everyone always says that the internet makes the world a great deal smaller. With these wonderful quilting bloggers, I now have many more blogs to visit and that makes my world much larger! Thanks for the time and effort you have put into this.
Can't wait to dig into all the links with quilts to view. This is a lot of work for you…and it's appreciated. Keeps everyone from feeling so left out from Quilt Market. Enjoying all this from Kentucky.

OK, I have posted about my quilt and linked, and just for your curiosity: I am 67 years old, have lived in Grand Rapids, MI for the last 31 years and grew up in Minneapolis. I have been quilting for about 40 years, mostly for charity, kids and grandkids. I like to fool around with fabric, PIECE blocks and make scraps into quilts.
Thanks for organizing this! It's so much fun and I'm glad I had the chance to participate this year. Oh, and I'm from South Carolina!
I live in GERMANY!! Well my husband and I are just stationed here for now. We've been here for 3 1/2 years already. I wanna win some stuff! Let me say thank you for hosting this also. I dont get to do quilt shows over here… I dont even have a fabric store! So its much much appreciated.
Thanks for setting up the bloggers quilt festival, Amy. Super fun.
I'm Alisa from Chilliwack, BC, Canada.
I think I finally got things right! Thanks for all the time you have put into organizing this for all of us out here who love to quilt and are not brave enough to show them off.
Thank you for hosting this very fun event!
I have a post! I am in Green, Ohio, South of Cleveland, North of Canton. Thanks!

Thanks for organizing this! I'm from Warrensburg, Missouri. I will try to post a picture of the quilt taken in the natural light.

Thanks again, for the fun show.

I'm having just as much fun this Festival as I did last Spring. Thanks so much, Amy, for hosting this wonderful event. Even though I usually don't attend Quilt Market in Houston (I only attend Spring Market), I certainly don't feel left out! Give yourself a huge "pat on the back" from me…you certainly deserve it! I'm in Thousand Oaks, CA, btw.
Hi Amy, I'm so glad I found out about this just in time. I'm in Victoria, BC, Canada and I'm # 129. In honour of the festival I'm doing a small giveaway from my blog at http://textisle.wordpress.com/2009/10/09/fall-quilt-festival/
Hello Amy!
Thank you for this wonderful idea! I read about it only yesterday and hurried to take part of the festival! I am from Germany and my blog is quite new and small, but I hope the visitors will enjoy my lone star quilt.
Greetings from Ahaus (Germany), Steffi
Hi there…Mary here at Quilt Hollow! I've posted this quilt recently on my blog but thought why not again for those who will be scouring the quilts and who may have missed it. I plan to give this little quilt away soon.
I live in NC.

Hi Amy,
Thank you for organizing and hosting this event.
Hi, Amy! I posted my link in the Mr. Linky box.
Thank you so much for doing this. I know a lot of work went on behind the scenes. I have chaired quilt shows in real life, so I'm sure chairing a quilt show in blogland is hard work, too.
Thanks, again!
Amanda
Hi Amy,
This is so much fun. I'm going to post about the first big-ish quilt I ever made. I'm still hoping to one day make my 'favourite' quilt.
Take care,
Rachel (Alberta, Canada)
Hi Amy, I came across your blog through another blog, that I found on Live Journal. I just added my blog post to the Quilt Festival. This festival is such a good idea. I am going to sit here all day long looking and reading about all the quilts that are on the list! So many talented people! Thanks for coming up with this! I plan to keep up with your blog and participate next time too! :)

Hi! I am posting my favorite quilt to be a part of the festival. This is a great idea! My blog is rememberyourkarma.blogspot.com. I am located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina, USA. Thanks for organizing this, I really enjoy seeing the beautiful quilts and meeting other blog-quilters.
I am from Texas, by way of Colorado. I am showing my newest plaid madness quilt. Thank you for doing this, it is fun to see everyone's creativity!
Great viewing. Thanks Amy from Julie S….Australia. Just put in my entry.
Thank you so much for doing this. I'm here in North Carolina where it's very warm and humid today. A little rainy so it was a good day to check out some of the wonderful quilts. I love reading the stories, admiring so many beautiful works.
You are sweet to gather all this inspiration together (especially for brand new babies like me).
Wow… I can't believe how many quilting bloggers there are… it's amazing! There are almost more sites to visit than days in a year!!! SO MUCH FUN!!
giselle in L.A.
I read about your festival and decided on a whim to link one of my quilts. Thanks for having this awesome event. I'm very excited to read about all the quilts here. This is a terrific idea.
I'm from Texas, and my quilt definitely has a story. A close friend who lives in RI and I made two of these quilts as a friendship project. Then we gave the quilts to our husbands. These are the second pair of quilts we have made together. I'm not a seasoned quilter; only three quilts that I can take credit for. But I'm a long time passionate quilt collector and appreciate the work that goes in to these wonderful textiles. Thanks again! ~ Sarah
Thank you Amy for "doing" this great festival again!
Tammy from PA

Amy! This has been so much fun! I browsed several blogs yesterday and had to make myself get up from the pc. Actually the last blog I browsed inspired me to make a quilt so I went right upstairs and did just that! :) It is 2/3rds put together and will be finished tomorrow in time to take to my guild meeting! Thanks so much for doing this festival! I hope the links to the blogs will be kept somewhere so we can continually go back to them. There is so much inspiration and eye candy it will take a year to go through it all! :)
I am originally from Northwest Alabama but moved to Henderson, NC in Jan 2003!
What a great idea. I have posted my first ever quilt. I have been looking at some of the quilts people are showing and they are amazing! It's nice to see what other people are up to.

Hi, What a fun idea you had to sew all us quilters together in this blog festival! My quilt turned out about as good as the Pumpkin Quiche recipe I tried (that went into the trash), and was actually made as my first Schnibbles quilt. It's an embarrassing sight, but for some reason, I'm not minding showing it, since I got to blog all about my lesson in perseverance from it. Thanks for letting me enter into the delight of this fun!
I am having so much fun looking at all the beautiful quilts!
Thanks for having this quilt festival.
Beautiful Quilts! What a great idea!

And oopsie for me too….I'm Susan, and I live in Gaithersburg, Maryland (which is suburb of Washington, DC).
finally got mine posted…kansas weather didn't cooperate for picture taking, but it will have to do. i spent a few hours last night cruising quilts…a few stories brought tears to my eyes. thanks amy…a rousing success!
The quilt I added was made because my hubby commented that he liked it when I was paging through a quilt book. It has become my favorite too!
From Jo and http://www.joscountryjunction.com in NE Iowa
I posted my link twice because I forgot to link to the specific post, but then remembered. I don't think i'm appearing twice tho! Good luck everyone!
I checked out the last one you did, but never added my own. This time around I decided to contribute. I'm only 21 so I don't have a whole lot of quilts to choose from (maybe 7 completed, I have 4 WIPs). Anyways, so glad there is another one and hopefully someone out there enjoys my quilt/blog. Jessica from Texas aka Quirky Parsnip.
Amy,

Hi Amy and everybody at the Blogger's Quilt Festival. Isn't this brilliant? I've posted my quilt at http://shiny4444.blogspot.com/2009/10/tukusan-tsugi.html and now I'm sitting in Lincolnshire in England where the autumn leaves are falling while I'm browsing all your fabulous quilts and being very inspired.

This virtual quilt festival is such a great idea! Thanks for hosting it.
Thanks for hosting this online quilt show! I have spent about 4 days viewing every single blog and have bookmarked at least 100 sites for future inspiration. Now on to my own quilts…
Thanks for organizing this again! So much fun and so many talented quilters. I'm excited that Wish Upon a Quilt is a sponsor since they are my main fabric store that I go to here in NC.
Thanks so much for hosting this, I think it is a great idea. I've added my link and am now ready for the show.
Hi Amy,
What a fun idea. I posted a link from my blog with my featured quilt. But I realized that when I listed my URL, I listed my general blog URL not the specific one for my post. How can I change that? If it is easier on your end (sorry, I know you're busy!) my correct link is http://sillyhappysweet.blogspot.com/2009/10/bloggers-quilt-festival.html
for Silly Happy Sweet's blog. So sorry! Thank you again. What a clever idea! –Carolyn
Hi Amy,
I've linked to my favorite quilt, which happens to be one of the newer ones. Thanks for the fun idea! I've checked out a couple dozen other quilts so far. Making my way through the list. :-)

I've finally posted my entry! You can find it at http://www.quiltdad.com/2009/10/bloggers-quilt-festival-2009.html. I didn't want to miss my opportunity to win one of the AMAZING prizes! Thanks so much for all of your hard work, Amy … your festivals are so, so great.
What a wonderful idea. I'm delighted to participate and can hardly wait to spend some time looking at all the quilts shown here. Thanks!

Hello from Nevada! Thanks for this opportunity to share our quilts with each other. So many gorgeous quilts, so little time! LOL
Wow! What a great turnout. I can't wait to work my way through all the entries…it may have to wait until I get back from non-virtual Festival, though!

This is such a fabulous idea and I thank you for hosting it. I've been sick this last week and it's been wonderful to be able to browse though everyone's amazing quilts while I couldn't do much else.
Thank you!

Hi Amy I have posted my link to my greatest quilting achievement (to date), it's my first time using a quilting machine myself! I'm so glad I found out about this quilt festival, I am a newbie quilter and will be attending the International Quilt Festival in Houston this Friday for the first time! In my opinion this is better than a regular quilt show because you get to see a little background on the quilt and quilter!

Hi Amy, I'm Diane from Grove City, Ohio. You inspired me to start my creative blog (after years of thinking about it). There are so many beautiful quilts to look at here, I might never sleep.

I love this! I got to go to the Houston Quilt Festival twice while I was in Texas. I loved it even before I really knew about designers etc. Sigh… Thanks for hosting this. I am going to have a good time looking at all of the quilts for the next couple of weeks!
Hope I win, too!

Hi, I'm Wendy in Louisiana, and I probably have the quilt with the most unusual materials, but for a reason.
great job amy, this is so much fun!
Thanks for hosting! I'm so glad I could participate this time. Here's my post: http://meagangracie.wordpress.com/2009/10/14/bloggers-quilt-festival/
What a great idea and loads of fun, many thanks.
My post and photos are up and your button is on my blog; I'm off to travel blogland and see the lovely quilts.
I'm in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains of southwest Virginia.
Hello! I finally decided to get in on this…. I don't have a blog so I posted my pics on flickr and added them to the Festival group.
I tried to link to Flickr with Mr Linky, not sure if that will work or not….
Thank you for hosting this festival. I LOVE looking at all the gorgeous quilts!!

WOW! I am fairly new to quilting! I am amazed at the possibilities and hope to someday do more complex quilts! What a neat idea to have a blog quilt festival!

Phew, I almost missed it, but I think I made it! Thanks for putting this on Amy! You're the best ;-)
Wow! And to think I figured out how to create a blog, a link, and a button just to share in all the fun……. My goodness!
Seriously, thank you SO much for putting this on. I've gotten nothing accomplished for several days now, *except* reading stories, being inspired and making new friends, It's been fabulous!
I can't believe it's almost a year since I finished this quilt! I love the interplay of the two colours. Writing from Edmonton AB Canada.
Thanks for the lovely quilt show!
I love being able to show off some of my quilts. It is so great to see others and go to quilt show in my PJ's. Thanks
Glenna from Arizona
Thanks Amy for doing the quilt festival. It has been great to see all the different quilt artists and their work.

Thanks so much

Oh, what fun! I love looking at all of the entries. Thanks for another great quilt festival!
Sally in SE Washington
Thanks for hosting again. I loved going through all the blogs last spring enjoying all the beautiful quilts. It's rainy and dreary here today in McLean, VA – perfect weather for viewing quilts again. Ahhh.
I'm back again browsing. What a feast for the eyes. Aaahhhh!
Thanks for all the fun, Amy. I did blog about your festival and hope I can participate in your Spring Festival 2010.

Thank you for this online Festival – I love it! Julie in PA/USA.

Thanks for hosting this! I just entered my quilt, and spent an hour or more looking at other entries. What a wonderful way to spend a chilly western Massachusetts morning.
Hi, Amy. Thanks for hosting another quilt festival. It is so much fun to look at "all" the quilts and blogs! I have been so inspired and made new friends. Thanks so much!
Oops, I forgot to say I am from central Illinois.
I just did my first EVER Mr. Linky! I'm so excited! And I am SO enjoying looking at all the breathtaking quilts! Thanks so much!
This is amazing! I just linked over from Wish Upon a Quilt and wow! The quilts are extraordinary. Mrs. Moen's quilt story gave me the chills. Quilts are no longer just sometihng to keep warm under or a way to use old material. They are works of art with symbolism & depth. I'm new to this "hobby" but I can see already how my English teaching background will influence my future works. I can hardly wait to get started!
I ddecided to use my Autumn Wedding Quilt as my Festival entry at All Things Quilty.

Thanks for putting this together for us. I really enjoyed seeing so many of the quilts.
Hi…I posted an old family quilt for the festival…my name is Kristine…live in WA state…SAHM of 2, wife to 1…this is my first time joining your festival…fun fun!
What an amazing concept – so many beautiful quilts here. I am inspired to continue to persevere at my early quiltmaking attempts!
This is such a fun way to see what every one can do! I am living in Utah, but I'm from Las Vegas. Thanks for doing this!
Hey Amy! I finally got my festival post up! Thanks so much for hosting this wonderful event! Oh, and I'm from good ol' Gilbert, Arizona :)

Amy, I loved looking over your last quilt festival, it's how I discovered Red Pepper Quilts, which is one of my favorite blogs to follow now. I don't have a blog right now, but I copied over my flickr picture URL and sent the picture over to the Group Pool. I'm excited to be able to participate in your quilt festival this year! I'm from Portland, Oregon.
I have been looking at the quilts for days. Your blog is so inspirational! I just wish I had the time and knowledge to blog too. Maybe if I stopped looking so much, lol.
Thanks for the fun

Many thanks from Phoenix for finding a way to gather so many accomplished crafters and ideas in one place!
I have spent way too much time on this over the past week. And I have loved every second of it! Thanks, I just posted my quilts, although I had hoped they would be back from the quilter by now. Such a bummer!
Thanks again! I'm loving it.
Wow! Look at all the wonderful places to visit! Thanks for doing this!
What a cool idea! Thanks! I'm Diane of IndigoDi at typepad and I live in Connecticut.

Amy, I'm after midnight on my comment but I made it under the wire on my quilt entry. Thanks for your recent post reminding me that I hadn't made my entry yet. I'm soooo happy that I made it and I'm actually dead last. Too funny! LOL!
I'm a local Utah girl and live not too far from Park City. I've lived out of State in Northern California for 13 years and have been back in Utah now for 11 years. I love it here!
Many thanks for endless hours of entertainment!
Oh dear…for some reason I thought today was the deadline. I was just told about this yesterday. Oh well, I did a post about my quilt anywhere here: http://pemberleycouture.blogspot.com/2009/10/online-quilt-festival.html
This is such an inspiring idea!
