Thank you for this awesome free pattern. I am a novice quilter and love to sew. Love your site. Thanks again.
Thanks for the chance to win! I am not yet a quilter, but I am gathering all the info and reading all the books I can before I step into the pool!
I would love to win, I am always looking for new quilting ideas!
Yes I’m joining the modern bom. I love block of the month stuff but hate the extra charges so it’s perfect for me. Plus no shipping!!! I have loved their stuff for quite some time. Thanks for sharing and giveaway!
I do quilt, and I love the quilts that Bill and Weeks make! I would love to win this book!
I am new to quilting but I love love love it! I actually started quilting because of modern quilting. The colors and the way pieces are put together – I just love how it’s made quilting new again!
I’m a new quilter trying to learn and would love to win a book. The quilt on the cover is awesome!
i heart Ringle and Kerr. The Modern Quilt Workshop was the book that really made me want to learn to quilt and my very first quilt was Outside the Box from that book. it took me forever to finish that quilt but i learned so much from it.
Thanks for the chance to win a copy of what looks like a wonderful book!
I do quilt, and I love those birds!
Quite often I refer to “The Modern Quilt Workshop”, the new book seems even more interesting!!
KarinM.
So far I’ve made 2 quilts, and it was super fun. I’m looking forward to more quilts in my future, and this book looks super neat!
I love the colorplay in all the quilts. Really, it’s how colors and values work together that make a spectacular quilt.
I don’t quilt but have been thinking, dreaming and planning for it for over a year now. So many bloggers inspire me but I have yet to take the plunge – despite purchasing books, fabric and reading every tutorial I can find. This book looks so amazing – thank you so much for the free pattern and for the fun giveaway!!
I’m an intermediate quilter… I have completed several, but am now getting ready to attempt a more complicated pattern!
These projects look gorgeous. If I do not win, I think I will cave in and buy.
I want to learn to quilt for a good purpose, for ex. giving the quilts to sick children or elders. I have never done it, so I have no idea where to start.
I have been a quilter for 27+ years. I’m usually a traditional quilter, but I have been seeing so many modern quilts that I am working on expanding my comfort zone.
I’d love to look at the book. Thanks for the pattern!
I have been wanting to learn to quilt for a while now. This book might just encourage me to bite the bullet.
I’ve been wanting this book! It is on my Amazon wish list.
I have been seriously contemplating starting to quilt. I’ve been doing some research and am trying to decide on a good beginner pattern. It seems very intimidating to me – but I know once I get passed those first few steps of starting, I’ll probably love it.
I’m a quilter, and besides loving the process, I also love to be able to say, “I’m a quilter” because it rolls off the tongue a little easier than “I’m a sewer.” (sewist?)
I’m pretty new to quilting but I would like to call myself a confident student
Learning from mistakes are actually a great way to learn and master new techniques. I really like modern quilts. I’m planning a project using only solid fabrics, perhaps I’ll try som fabric combos on that pillow case pattern. Awesome blog, by the way!
I am a quilter and I’d love this book. Weeks and Ringle make really inspirational designs!
I’m a quilter and have been for over 10 years. I usually work with reproductions but I’m drawn to the color and design of modern as well. I’ve been very interested in this new book by Weeks Ringle and Bill Kerr because I want to make quilts for my sons who are in their 20′s. I know the projects in their book would be fun for me to make and the boys would like them.
I love the modern approach to quilting and I’m partial to clean, sparse designs that use mainly solids. This book looks like a great source of inspiration!
I’ve made two quilts for friends, both very simple patterns, and now I want to make a modern one for myself. This book would be great!
This looks like a great book and thanks for the pattern! I’ve been quilting for about a year and would like to learn more about designing my own tops. Sounds like this would have good tips.
That book has been on my wishlist since I completed my second quilt. I adore all of those patterns.
/crosses fingers
i’ve always wanted to get into quilting
Thanks for the pattern! I was looking for a small gift to make for a friend. This is perfect! The book looks wonderful! Thanks for the chance.
Been quilting for years, and seem to have my own aesthetic, but I do enjoy the modern quilting I’m seeing around. My love of quilting was piqued by the juxtaposition of amish quilts in all their brilliance, and the fussy wonderful-ness of sampler and Victorian quilts.
I’m a really new quilter. I just completed the piecing of my very first quilt. I now have to actually quilt it! This is the scarier part for me! I’d love to get my hands on this book!
I’m a fan of Fun Quilts studio – I think they’ve been a great push for the modern quilt “movement.”
Very interesting pillow pattern. I’ve just gotten back into sewing and looking for “trendy” patterns and projects. Thanks for the free pattern!
It cannot be said that I quilt, or that I physically quilt, but in my mind… Oh, in my mind I quilt the most beautiful quilts you can imagine. I’m a quilt procrastinator, I should say. Maybe that book would definitively launch me into “real” quilting.
Thanks so much for the pattern – that’s a lovely block. Sigh, one more thing that I HAVE to make!
I love quilts and when i don’t have to constantly watch over my 1yo, I can’t wait to try making one!
I love Bill & Week’s modern style of quilting. I have been quilting for many many years and gone through many styles and am enjoying the new modern look! Thank you so much for the pattern. The birds are beautiful!
Ijust love this bright, modern look.
Great to have more modern quilting books!
I’m a dedicated quilter and long time fan of Weeks and Bill. I love modern quilts and may join the modern block of the month but I already have so many projects!
Beautiful pillow! And those birds! Thanks for sharing. I have made a few quilts through brute force, with no training and before internet tutorials existed, but I am interested in learning some helpful tricks.
I’m still a relative newbie, but I’m really getting into quilting, thanks to the new MQG in my town. Now if only a “modern” fabric store would open…
I really want to make the quilt on the cover of the book. just lovely.
Those birds are fabulous! Would love to win this book.
Wonderful! I am in need of some new quilt ideas. Thanks for the chance.
Thank you for the pattern. Great modern pillow design. I love quilting and have been quilting for 10 years.
Thanks for the freebie, and the chance to win! Love the new look to the quilts!
I have an entire PInterest board dedicated to quilts I want to make one day. I haven’t had the time or guts to start one yet, but I hope to by Christmas…at least a little one.

I love to quilt and have been wanting to dive in to the modern world!
Love this giveaway! I’m not a quilter yet, but this book would be the perfect excuse to start.
Lovely book! Thanks so much for the pattern!
I’m a novice/int. sewer and have been circling around quilting for a while. I love the new modern patterns–not the style my mom used to make. I would love to have this book!
My mother was an avid quilter. I’m just now starting to dabble in quilting and can already start to understand why she was so addicted. Would love this book!
Oh that looks fabulous! I’ll have to pick that up.
Always gain new inspiration from new books!!
Thanks for the chance to win. I’m always looking for new inspiration.
I’m taking my first quilt class now. I love the Modern/Contemporary aesthetic. Thanks for the chance.
I am just starting out learning to quilt. I am about to finish my first one. It was a learning experience! I really like the look of modern quilt blocks. I joined BOM so I hope to keep up with continuing to learn about quilting! So, I would love this book but the pillow pattern is great too! Thanks.
Been sewing for 40 years but quilting for 3 months! Coming from Pennsylvania, I thought all quilts had to look “old fashioned”. Now I know better! I can stop experimenting and sewing!! I get books from the library but they are not all modern. This book would be great!!!
I am def a quilter and surely hope to join in the on the Modern BOM but I have to clear some projects first. I have a ton of projects on the go right now. I love quilting!!!
Thanks for the free patterns .I love the black bird on wire wall hanging. I said to hubby reminds me of the Black birds sitting staring at me and my garden lol
These quilts look amazing! Thanks again for the giveaway!
Thanks for the great pattern. I’m just starting out quilting (my first is awaiting binding).
This is perfect!!! I have been looking at a way to expand my sewing to include quilting vintage fabrics with new techniques. Both of my grandmothers were quilters and I want to pass this tradition on to them. Can’t wait to make the pillow
oh, I’d love to have this book ~ thanks for the chance!
I love quilting! I am always looking for new quilting books!
I’ve made one quilt, and let’s just say it was a decent beginner’s effort. I definitely need to improve my skills!
I took a class a few years ago, but the traditional patterns aren’t my style, so I haven’t made a quilt. I’m so glad to see modern designs for quilts out there–now I don’t have any excuse! I get the RSS feed so I can follow, and maybe even make, the blocks in the QAL. The book sounds like the perfect way to start!
Those birds ARE amazing!! Wow, they make me want to run out and buy the pattern. I love, love, love them!
I would love to win this book! The quilt on the cover is amazing!
Thanks for the pattern! I’m always amazed at the way complicated-looking items are actually quite simple to make!!
I checked this book out at the store and it looked great! Saving up my pennies…
Love that quilt, and would love to win the book.
gorgeous! can’t wait to make this!
Just getting into quilting and love the modern look. Thanks for the chance to win this!!
I do quilt, but I haven’t been doing it for very long. I love it though and want to continue quilting, a way for me to be creative!
What a fun pattern! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the continued inspiration and patterns!

I love to quilt, although most of the quilts I’ve made have been more traditional. It’d be fun to try out some more modern designs!
I was inspired to start quilting because of the modern quilts I saw in my local quilt shop.
Thank you for the pattern! I love getting new ideas and tutorials!
The Modern Quilt Workshop was a revelation. (Wow, quilts I’d actually want to make and display.) I’m really looking forward to this new collaboration.
I would love to win one of these books. I adore Weeks & Ringle and would love to add this book to their other in my quilting library.
Thank you so very much for the pattern! it looks really cute and simple to make!
I’m in the process of making my first quilt and I’m looking for other idea’s and this book looks right up my alley!
I have been quilting for awhile and although I like traditional patterns I like to have modern interpretations or new patterns to make esp for the high school kids that I give quilts to as a graduation presents.
I have been quilting since I was ~12-13 years old. I am really into modern quilts these days and have to see this book!
I can’t wait to see what other blocks there will be for the block of the month, but I don’t want a ‘sampler’ so I guess I’ll wait to see them all before I decide what quilt I want to make.
I’ve been quilting for about a year, and I love modern quilting!
I would love to learn how to quilt!
Thanks, cute free pillow pattern! Thanks for the giveaway, too!
Oooh, I love the quilt on the cover! The colors, the quilting and the design! Sure would love to win it. Thanks for the chance
I love this style! I’d never heard of Bill before, but I’m a fan now!
I have always loved their work and would love to win this new book.
We’re in the process of building a house where I will actually have a sewing space that is not the dining room table. I am so excited! Learning to quilt is one of the 1st things I want to do when I finally have the space set up.
I love modern quilting. That Bird on a Wire quilt is lovely!
Great pillow. I love the colors! Thanks for providing the pattern.
Yes I am a quilter! And I recently checked this very book out of the library. I loved it! Thanks for the giveaway
That’s a really cute pillow! Thanks for the pattern
I’m a very new quilter but I love it!
Already a huge fan, Bill and Weeks influenced me a lot when I began quilting. I’d love to add this book to my collection!
I’d love to have a copy of that book! Thanks for the free pillow pattern as well.
Looks like a neat book
I have been a quilter for over 30 years and I love the ideas and colour combinations in modern quilts
Thanks for the chance to win this book! Always looking for new modern inspiration!
I do quilt a lot, but it is mostly traditional. I would like to try my hand at something a little more modern! Thanks!
I love quilting!
I love Modern Quilt workshop and thanks for the chance to win Weeks and Bill’s new book! I’m an intermediate quilter – so much to learn and play with, so little time!
I love to quilt, but still quite new at it – I love learning about new quilting ideas and projects! This book looks amazing!
I have been a quilter since my teens,so 30+ years. I usually make traditional or replica type quilts but recently been doing more modern designs. I have seen the “Quilts Made Modern” book at my local library and would love to have my own copy! Thank you for the free pattern!
I am a quilter and make mostly traditional quilts, although I’m more drawn to modern ones. I’d love to get the book to try some!
I fell in love with quilting about 5 years ago, and have tried several “modern” quilts. I love the concept, and would love to read a book to further my knowledge about the subject!
Thanks for the pattern! I’d love to win the book!
I absolutely love quilting (or at least my attempts). Not only is it a great creative outlet, you make great useful objects that can be treasured forever!
I have been quilting since the 70′s but I hate fussy quilts so I am thrilled with the turn to modern patterns lately.
Thanks for the pattern. The book looks great!
I just finished my FIRST queen sized quilt. I’ve been working on it for two years. Now I’m looking for inspiration for the next one. “Quilts made Modern”looks inspirational to me.
I’ve been quilting for 10 years. Quilts Made Modern has ispired me to go outside the box and I’ve made some pretty cool quilts in the last year. Thanks, Bill and Weeks!
I love to quilt and love the modern quilting movement
I’ve never come across Bill and Weeks before and love something new to discover. I’ve just this afternoon received a Go!Baby so am looking forward to getting more quilting done, quicker! thanks for the giveaway
Looks like a great book! I am a quilter, with a few quilts under my belt–all crib size, all given away! And yes, I am currently working on another baby gift.
Thank you so much for this giveaway! I’m a new quilter, and it is quickly becoming one of the great passions of my life. I love the balance of creativity and order quilts have. Plus, it is so nice to cuddle with a beautiful quilt
Thank you for the pattern.. I’d love to learn how to quilt. Time to find a class.
That pillow will look perfect with the quilt I am making for my bed-yay!!
I’m a fan of Weeks and Bill’s last book, and would love to win the new one!
I’m new to quilting and love the modern style!
I love those birds! This book might just give me the push into quilting that I need.
Beautiful! I would love that book.
Looks awesome! Loving modern quilts.
I am new to quilting… I started my first quilt, got the blocks cut out, but that’s as far as it’s gotten… things are too busy right now. I’m hoping I can get back to it in the fall. This book looks awesome! I love the quilt on the cover! Thanks for a chance to win!
Oh what fun, thank you! I consider myself a beginner quilter but have already made four for my children and a half way through one for myself. And I crave more!! Thank you for the lovely project pattern.
Those birds are amazing, I love that wall hanging. Thanks for the free pattern and the chance to win this wonderful book.
I’ve been quilting off an on over the last 20 years. Mostly I make baby quilts for my friends and colleagues. I want to expand my repertoire to include full sized bed quilts, especially one for my sister featuring applique images of her dog.
Looks like a great book, and pattern! Thanks so much!
I have made a number of quilts, most of them for new babies. As my tastes have shifted more towards a modern aesthetic, I’ve slowed down on the quilting b/c I didn’t like the traditional “quilt” look as much, but these designs are getting me going again for sure. I especially love the birds on a wire…
I love the pillow. Awesome bonus for following along on this tour!
Ooh, I love modern quilts!!! The traditional quilting styles aren’t my thing, but the newer, modern styles are RIGHT up my alley.
Today I am actually cutting up the fabrics to make my first ever quilt, eep! I have made a T-shirt quilt but nothing like this before. I’m sort of making up my own design based on the fabric I have on hand so I’m hoping it works out okay!!!
In any case it’s for my son’s 2nd birthday so I’m sure he will love it!
I’m relatively new at the quilting thing, but I’m addicted!
Oddly enough, I like bird graphics but despise actual living birds. They scare the tamales out of me.
I loved their previous book, The Modern Quilt Workshop, and read it cover to cover in one sitting. So, yes, you could say I was a huge fan! I definitely gravitate to quilts with more geometric shapes and solid/bright colors, so their quilting esthetic is perfect for me. Thanks for the chance to win their book!
Love your blog! I’m going to download the pattern right now … I’ve been sewing a table runner today as a gift for a friend so I’m in the mood to try something new! Maybe the book will give me some inspiration! Thanks!
What an interesting, clean design!
I am just starting my first quilts. I’m making baby quilts for my 2 daughters. They will be simple patchwork quilts.
Oh, and I’m already a quilter. I really lean towards patchworky, yet modern designs with really clean lines.
I love the simplicity of modern quilts! Thank you for the pattern.
I’ve been a fan of Bill and Weeks since I saw their beautiful Spice Market quilt on the cover of American Patchwork and Quilting magazine. Love, love, love their designs. And after following them on their blog, I love their hearts too.
I am a daughter and grand daughter of quilters, with one (traditional) quilt that’s been on my stand, half quilted, for a few years now, and I am really looking forward to getting into more modern designs. I love, love love modern quilts these days and have never tried my hand at piecing, only the quilting itself. I’ve got two toddlers who’ve each gotten simple tied quilts, but my head swims with half-baked designs for “real” quilts – the next level, so to speak.
What a nice pattern. It looks like a fun and easy one to do. Thanks@
Thanks for a chance to win an awesome giveaway! And the pattern! I am just getting my feet wet in the world of quilting. This book would def. enhance my quilting skills! I have been following along with the Modern Block of the Month. I am loving all the inspiration! I just finished a Dr. Seuss Chevron quilt top for my youngest sons soon to be big boy room. Now to baste, quilt, and bind!I started with a disappearing nine patch for my oldest son and have been hooked ever since. Fingerscrossed!!!
I’m loving the modern quilts and “Quilts Made Modern” looks terrific. I’m going to give the BOM a try; this is the first time I’ve been tempted. Fingers crossed.
Weeks and Bill are so inspiring in their methodology and designs! I’ve not been quilting much lately, but after reading the Workshop book, I’m ready to jump back in! I can’t wait to see this new one!
I love to see color combinations and unusual ways of combining fabrics, Fantastic!
I’ve been quilting for two years, there’s still so much to learn.
I love to quilt and I have been eyeing that book for a while now. I would love to win a copy and thanks for the free downloads. Cynthia
Now I can say I quilt. I just begun two some months ago but I do quilt (also free motion quilting). I am interested in the monthly blocks because I want to learn so much. I think I’m not the very traditional type of quilter but maybe also not the very modern. But I like to see what you have planned. Maybe I’ll try some of the blocks out for my sampler quilt I’m planning.
Thanks for the free pattern.
Thank you for the great pattern!!
I love their style. I have another book by them and the instructions are great too.
I am a beginner quilter and have made a quilt for a wedding gift and a baby quilt for my grandchild…I am hoping they will both be heirlooms. I am a very visual person though and love looking for new quilting ideas through this media. I hope my gifts are enjoyed as much as I enjoy making them…
I love quilting and lately have been getting more interested in the modern quilting style. Such clean lines, and such beautiful colors and fabrics! I would love to have this book for guidance and inspiration.
I do quilt but not as often as I’d like. The last time I bought supplies for a quilt (from SMS, actually) was ages ago and I’m embarassed to say I haven’t finished cutting it yet.
Thank you for the review and free project/pattern! thanks for a lovely giveaway.
Thanks for the pillow pattern! & for the chance to win a copy of your book. I’m just getting started quilting and this would be a great addition to my library.
thanks for the pattern and giveaway!
That pillow is so cute! It’s definately going on my project list. That book looks great too. I’ve been thinking about getting back into quilting and have been on the hunt for more modern non-traditional quilt patterns.
I am still learning to quilt. I have finished five quilts and I am working on my sixth. I really enjoy the design process and watching my thoughts become reality.
I love to quilt! I am currently working on a throw quilt make with beautiful Hawaiian fabric and a wall hanging.
Looks like an inspirational book!
The first time I saw a modern quilt was an article on FunQuilts in an architecture magazine, and I was hooked! I love their patterns and how they explain color choices. Can’t wait to make the pillow!
I totally LOVE this book. Although I don’t own one yet I have had my paws on it a few times.
I made one “non-modern” quilt block about four years ago and it’s still sitting my drawer with the rest of the fabric for the quilt. The modern aesthetic appeals to me much more, and I am currently making plans my first modern quilt.
Thank you very much! I am pretty much a quilting novice, but I am learning. I am am currently working on a paper-pieced Harry Potter quilt. The book looks lovely though!
Thanks so much for the free pattern – I’m right in the middle of sewing my first quilt. Would love to win this book!
I enjoy quilting. I am a fan of Bill and Weeks. I’ve attended one workshop, I have a lot of their patterns/any magazine articles on them. I just love their quilts!!!
Thank you very much for the wonderful free pattern. I really like the modern Quilter,. They have more creative freedom.
I’ve been quilting for years, and I love the modern quilts. I got fabric to make the first design in the BOM. I can’t wait to see the next design!
I finished my first ever quilt a couple of months go – and now I think I’m addicted! I have to say, I’m not entirely sure what a modern quilt is,but would love to find out…
I’d love to wibn a copy of the new book!
This is the kind of modern that’s inspiring to me! Am working on quilt #4.
I love these blog hop give-a-way contests! Not only do I get to dream about getting a free book, I get to visit new-to-me blogs and even a few favorite blogs that I’ve seen before! Thanks for hosting this give-a-way today!
I come from a long line of quilters and am working on my 3rd quilt now! I would love to win this book!
I’m a beginning quilter and feel more comfortable working on “modern” quilts. I do plan to participate in the BOM Club and think a copy of Bill and Weeks’ book would be a good addition to my growing library of all things sewing! Thanks!
Love ‘The Modern Quilt Workshop’…Weeks and Bill have such a great design + color sense. When I get stuck when chosing a color palette for a quilt, I often refer to the book for a bit of help. Their designs are so clean and fresh…in my opinion, they have the ‘modern’ design aesthetic down pat!
Thanks for the opportunity to win! Yes, I’m a quilter, would love to have that book and I am doing the Modern BOM.
Thanks for the cute pattern! Will add it to my “someday” files! D.
Thanks for the free pattern! I would like to begin quilting (have been sewing for years). This book would be great to work with. Thanks for the chance!
WE need a book like this. I am going to be inspired
Marilyn
Thank you for the free pattern and a chance to win this great book.

I learned to quilt more than 30 years ago, but was away from it for (too) many years. I always knew I would get back to quilting and as I have been quilting over the past couple of years, I find myself more and more drawn to modern quilt designs, especially the designs in Quilts Made Modern and other designs I have seen by this creative team.
Thanks for the pattern. Are the lovely birdy hangings on the wall quilted as well? Or are they felted? I don’t know if you know, but thought I would ask. I can’t tell from the photo, but they are lovely as well!
I made a few quilts several years ago, but then stopped quilting because the traditional was just not what I wanted. I have rediscovered quilting again and am LOVING the modern quilt! I am doing the Modern Block of the Month and am in a “bee” that starts in August. Such fun
I fell in love with stippled quilts a few years ago while perusing your site and since then have finished one quilt top. I have dreams of making lots of quilts when time and $ allow. This book looks beautiful!
This book is right up my alley!
This seems like a beautiful book. Makes me want to quilt modernly…
I quilt. I love the way it relaxes me. Time flies when my fingers are busy putting one good stitch after the last.
I am a learner quilter and love trying new techniques and styles… I make a smaller object in a technique and then a larger one …
Hugz
I’m just learning to quilt, and I’m going to try the Modern BOM sew along
I have had that book on my wish list since it came out – I love their fresh take on quilts.
I love the modern designs! I would love to play around with this book.
I am a quilter and I have heard great things about Ringle and Kerr’s books. Though I don’t yet own one, I’d love to!
I haven’t tried quilting yet–but I do want to. This book looks lovely! Thanks for the giveaway!
I do so love good quilty books and this sounds like a wonderful new book. Thanks for sharing insights and the chance to win a copy.

Thanks for the free pattern. Would love this book because I’ve been looking for some modern ideas for quilting!
I have been quilting since 2005, when I took a class at the Smithsonian to relax from government law practice. I am a huge fan of Bill and Weeks and their work. They treat quilters with the respect we deserve.
Love the birds on a wire quilt! I would love to chance the birds to parrots and make one to sit next to my parrot’s cage. Thanks for the free pattern.
I love to quilt! I enjoy the entire process – from picking the fabric/pattern, to pressing and making the binding – ALL OF IT! lol! Thanks for the chance!
I am a beginner quilter — and the pillow is so cute! Thanks for the pattern and chances of giveaways
I love to quilt, although I really am still learning. I have made a fair share of traditional quilt patterns and am ready to tackle something more modern. I’m loving all of this inspiration!
I am new to quilting and am collecting fabrics to make a quilt for our son. This book looks awesome!!! I’d love to have guidance!!
I love the modern quilt looks. Just sent my first one off to be quilted-want to do a modern one for my living room in seascape colors! I’m a novice for sure, but learning tons as I sew and rip out seams-about equal parts at this time!!!
I have been quilting for about 28 years. I am looking to update the patterns and fabrics I use to a more contemporary look. I love this book!
A fantastic book. Thanks for the chance to enter.
Happy days.
Bev.xoxo
Thanks for the free pattern. I am looking forward to starting quilting with my two girls.
I used to be into quilting big-time but got a little tired of the traditional patterns. I’m ready to jump back in with modern quilts now!
I’m a quilting newbie and I LOVE it so far. It is a great creative outlet and being able to use something you make is such an amazing feeling. I really LOVE modern quilts and have had this book on my wishlist. I can’t wait to see it in person!
Thanks for the pattern….
I am beginner in quilting…Love it!!
I am a newbie quilter but anxious to learn all there is to learn. This book would be a big help!
love it!
OMG Thank you for the cute pattern, I love the quilt on the cover. I’ve been thinking of making one like the one on the cover. I do enjoy quilting, after awhile a change from half-square triangle would be a blessing. I love to have the chance to win the book. I do enjoy their work! Thank you so much for a chance.
Surely I could finish a pillow…really! Thanks for the freebie. Hope I win the book…
I have not quilted before, but have just had my sewing machine serviced so I can give it a try! I’ve been inspired by so many blogs with gorgeous modern colours and textures, yet in designs that seem quite simple for beginners… I can’t wait to start picking out fabric!
I LOVE quilting! I joined your block of the month and just bought some fabulous fabric for it! I’m excited to hopefully win a Quilts Made Modern! Thanks for the giveaway.
I just love those birds on a wire! Looks like an excellent book!
I am a new quilter and I am constantly amazed at the wealth of information and knowledge to be found online. Modern quilting is sometimes quite mindblowing!
Thanks for the great pattern. I already have both of your books, but could use another for back up when I wear mine out.
I have another book by Bill and Weeks, and it’s very inspiring. I love their use of solids.
I am just embarking into the wonderful world of quilting. I have all the pieces cut out for my first quilt and now need to bite the bullet and start sewing. I would love to win for more inspiration.
I started quilting about a year ago. My family was staying with my in-laws for a couple of months while we were in the process of a big move and with three other quilters in the house, I just got hooked.
This looks like a fantastic way…winning it would be great, but I will need to check this out either way. Thank you for the pattern!
Thanks for the pattern. I do quilt and love modern quilting. This book would be a real treat. Thanks for the giveaway!
Great pattern – thank you! I love to quilt, make pillows and sew garments.
thanks guys, ive got quilting on the brain!
I’m in the middle of my first quilting project, a potholder!
I haven’t tried quilting yet…. but may start with a mug rug! I really love geometric modern quilts, and crazy topstitching. I am afraid to start quilting, because I think i might love it!
Great freebie and the book looks awesome too!!
The cover of that book looks incredible! So tempting. Love to quilt and teach it to my 4-H kids. Would love to win the book!
I’m a sloooowwww quilter. I’ve made one baby quilt and one big quilt. I finished the baby quilt because it was a gift, but the other is for me…. so the bigger one is ready for quilting and binding, and has been forever. Someday soon – at least I hope so.
I have never made a quilt, but I am willing to learn. Modern quilts sound amazing!
I really just started doing it seriously this summer. I love modern design. I’ve got the modern block of the month on my to do list (as soon as fabric gets here).
This is really neat and has inspired me to take a shot at fabric wall art!
That book looks wonderful! Thank you for the free pattern. It’s on the to-do list!
I’ve just taken up quilting and have started with a set of placemats, my first free motion quilting experiment! I love the clean lines of the modern quilt blocks and am looking forward to the rest of the Modern Block of the Month posts! Thanks for the pattern and the chance at a spiffy book!
Thanks for the awesome pattern! I would love to win the book!
Thanks for a terrific opportunity to win this book. Looks amazing!
love to quilt, found modern quilting ab out a year ago and that is all I want to do. Love birds on a wire!
I’m newish to it, but I love making quilts! My favorite part may be choosing the “next” quilt, though. This book is actually at the top of my wish list these days! I’m really fascinated by modern quilts and just discovered Sew Mama Sew’s modern block of the month a few days ago and I’m thinking of joining! I can’t wait to check out the pattern for the pillow!
of course i quilt. its my obsession. usually traditional patterns but i’m ready to try some more modern quilts for my kids.
I just got some Cherrywood hand-dyed fabrics and my husband asked if I would be making a MODERN QUILT!
I would love to win this book! I love modern quilts! I’m doing the BOM with a twist.
I’m just learning how to quilt but I’m loving it and have some big plans!
I love Weeks and Ringle. Their book, the Modern Quilt Workshop was a tremendous inspiration to me–I still need to finish my Love Beads Quilts. I would recommend any of their books to beginners because they do such a great job of walking through the steps.
Thanks for the pattern–I love it!
Oops. I meant Weeks Ringle and Bill Kerr.
Overly excited fingers do not type well!
perfect pattern I need to make several pillows as decor for a wedding!
oh this book would be great too I would love to share it with my 20 something daughters
color is the one area that gives me trouble so I really turn to professionals for help. Ringle and Kerr make it look so easy!
Thanks so much for the hopscotch pattern. I love it. I love your work and thanks for the chance to win the book.
I am sort of new to quilting, three years or so, but have been sewing since I was about 10. I seem to lean towards the more modern quilts, especially those with larger blocks to piece. Can’t quite get the hang of some of those 2 inch blocks. I am a fan of Bill & Weeks and love their work. Just finished my first ‘wonky nine patch’ quilt and did all the steps myself — piecing, straight line quilting — binding!
This looks like a great book. I would love to have it.
urbanviolet(at)yahoo(dot)com
I love everything about quilting! I like finding the right pattern, the perfect fabric, the piecing/applique, the quilting, and the binding. Best of all though is using them whether they’re wall sized or bed sized.
The book looks like it’s full of neat patterns and photos, and I’d sure like a chance to win a copy. Thanks!
The book sounds fab!
I’ve only quilted a little bit but it’s something I’ve been meaning to do more. I really love modern quilts and seeing beautiful ones like these inspire me to get quilting.
I love to quilt and may give the Quilt a long a try. I have always been more of a traditional quilter but I’m branching out and would love a chance at this book. Thanks!
Do you quilt? Yes, Amateur.
Do you want to learn? Yes, I’m always searching for new things to increase my confidence and my skill.
Are you already a huge fan of Bill and Weeks and their work?! I’ve been to their sites and they do beautiful work. I also follow their blog.
Are you joining in our Modern Block of the Month? I don’t know? I will check that out!
Do you love a “modern” quilt aesthetic? Yes, I do very much so. I think that is my favorite aesthetic.
I’ve been patch-working lately, but haven’t made an actual quilt since I was 8 years old! Hahah – the book looks great, I would love to have some inspiration!
I am into my 5th month of quilt craziness. I am new to quilting, and am eating up all the books I can. Thanks for the chance to win, this book looks right up my alley!
Love the birdies on the wire! Thanks for the free pillow tute!
I love those birds on a wire!
I keep wanting to try out quilting, but haven’t started yet. I would love to win this book to help motivate me a little:).
Those are beautiful. I especially love the birds!
I made up two of the first BOM squares, which I’ve incorporated into the back cushion of a chair that I’m hoping to redo the cover for. Really enjoying all the lovely things you post, and would love to own a copy of this book.
I love to see new books on modern quilting. Thanks also for starting the modern BOM, I am sewing along!
Love those cushion covers. I’m an ex-quilter who has rediscovered quilting after seeing so many of these gorgeous modern quilts. The book looks fantastic!
Jumping in with Modern Block of Month. Not a quilter. Yet.
I’ve made a couple baby quilts for gifts, and am now hooked! I want to learn more free motion techniques and eventually learn how to design my own. I could really use some guidance and fresh inspiration, so this book would be perfect!
It’s 6 am and making this pillow WILL fit into my day. The book looks wonderful!Thanks
I’m just getting started with quilting – but I am loving it so far! I’ve seen this book around and it’s gorgeous, so I’d love to win a copy!
I am a beginner and inspired to quilt
looks like a great book
I’d love to have that book sitting on my shelf next to my other quilt books. I quilt but don’t consider myself anything but a wannabe proficient quilter. Thanks!
I’ve made one quilt in my life – for a friend’s baby who is now in elementary school! – but I keep meaning to get more into it. Part of my problem is finding patterns I like… xo
I don’t quilt yet, but definitely want to learn!
I’ve been quilting for years. I love the way the modern quilting movement has opened new doors for creativity. The world of quilting just gets better and better, whether you are traditional, modern, or both.
What a great giveaway! I have just made my first quilt and have started on my second. I am always looking for more ways to sew and especially quilt!
I’m a quilter, and boy, do I need help with color theory!! Would love to win this book – I’m a fan!
My project this summer was to make my first quilt. I have it finished, except for the binding. I absolutely love it!! I think now I might have a quilting bug. =)
I do enjoy the look of the modern quilt, I must admit I am more a wannabe quilter- the projects look amazing!
I would love to do more quilting, but honestly would give this book to my sister, who is a diligent and creative quilter.
Reviving my love of textiles through fabric and quilting. Have been looking for a modern quilt book to generate new ideas…maybe this is thebook for me!
I am a quilter…but I am also a knitter and lately I’ve been venturing into sewing garments.
This modern quilt book looks great! I would love to have it.
I love to see quilts with a modern sensibility. Thanks for the giveaway!
I have only quilted on a small scale with pillows and doll blankets. I would love to go bigger and will once I have more space and moola!
Thank you for the pattern. I love the modern look of this simply pillow pattern as with all the quilts in the book. I especially love the look of the one on the cover!!! Looks like new pillows for the couch soon
. Would love to own an ebook copy – then I could make a matching quilt!!
Thanks for the free pattern. I love the bird pictures on the wall, too.
I’ve done two workshops with Bill and Weeks–they’re the best!
I’m starting my second quilt today and was excited to see this post – I LOVE modern quilt design and am hungry for helpful resources!
Jumping in with MBOM. Not a quilter. Yet.
I love quilting books, and even better, I love FREE quilting books!
I am new to quilting but I love it. I like a variety of types of quilts from modern to traditional. I tend to love bright colors rather than the more sedate ones.
Thanks for the free pattern. The book looks great with patterns that will inspire.
My kind of quilting! I love it.
i love to quilt, and though i have made an equal mix of traditional and modern quilts at this point, i love modern the best! those birds are quite amazing! the book looks great.
I’ve made quilts yet am only starting to “get the hang” of it. Like the modern quilt patterns (did the blocks for the P2 modern QAL) and would love to win this book!
What a great looking book. I have to admit I love quilting books, what a great way to get motivated!! Thanks for the fun pillow pattern.
I’ve just taken the leap and invested in a rotary cutter, acrylic ruler and cutting mat. Now all I need is the inspiration and know-how so I can put these tools to good use! Quilts Made Modern looks like just the thing to get me cracking! Modern quilting, here I come!!! Please keep me in mind for the e-book…. Thanks!
I am a huge fan of Weeks Ringle and Bill Kerr. My copy of Modern Quilt Workshop is well loved and I’m excited to see their latest book. I find their work so inspiring and their patterns very easy to follow.
i have made 2 quilts so far and love it, 1 for keeps and 1 as a gift. it is an amazing powerful beautiful thing to make your 1st quilt and wrap yourself in it right when it comes out of the dryer. somehow any minor imperfections in that first quilt just melt and away!
also, i am very interested in the modern BOM but i do wish we could get 2 blocks per month rather than just 1
trying to learn to quilt. starting small. I’ll try the pillow. Need this book.
I absolutely Love your site. The book would be awesome for me as I am a new quilter and am enjoying the “Not your Grandmother’s Quilts” movement!!
I love modern quilts! I’ve only made 1 quilt so far, and plan to do two more for my girls.
I’m a recycled quilter. I love both the old style and the new modern style. I think both have their place, and I love to mix it up! Thanks for the opportunity!
I have been stashing fabric for quite a while in the hopes that one day I’ll be brave enough to try making my own quilt.
YES I am an experienced quilter…loving the modern vibes!! Haven’t heard about these authors…thanks to you and your awesome BLOG/SHOP I have now! What I really like looking at this book preview is the possible motivation to get me INSPIRED and ready to start a new project!! Thanks again for your great STUFF!!
Thanks for the pattern! I’m a big fan of Bill and Week’s work. Definitely a quilter – love thinking about it, planning it, buying fabric for it, doing it…all of it! Thanks for the opportunity!
The birds are awesome!!
I’ve been quilting for about 10 years now. I tend to like modern style quilts, and often make modern quilts or quilts with traditional blocks with fabrics with more of a ‘modern’ feel. Thanks for the pattern!
I’m in the middle of my second quilt, and have been stuck there for years! I got a new sewing machine for Christmas, so that helps (the old one wasn’t working), now I just need to make the time to finish it.
I have been a quilter forever but that is why this book is so appealing! I do not want to make quilts that look as though they were designed for the bicentennial (1976) but would rather make timeless quilts, and that is what this book seems to be doing!
OMgoodness, love love love! I’m a newbie just starting my quilting-goodness-library so I’ve got my fingers & toes crossed to win a copy.
These Modern Quilt ideas have been wandering in my head ever since you first posted them.
Thank you.
I love these authors – I have their first book and Plain Spoken is one of my favorite quilt patterns. Thanks for the chance to win their latest offering. I love the clean lines and graphic nature of “modern” quilts.
I quilt since 2000, taylor/sew since early seventies. Do not use patterns for quilts, but I do use spreadsheets to figure out designs and measurements. Love the FunQuilts Studio for the design concepts. Used their “big idea” method more than once. They make a great team!
This book looks to be full of wonderful inspiration. I have just started quilting and would love to win the book.
Thanks for the great giveaway. Funny, I just got this book out of the library and have been perusing it today. It has some very lovely quilts. I quilt and sew, the more I do I realize that I really do love quilting and patchwork more than anything else. I make toys and clothes for gifts and for my son but when I do something just for me I always go back to patchwork and quilting.
I am an intermediate quilter and I love to try new techniques (well, new to ME, anyway.) I’m a sucker for online quilt alongs, and am currently in my fifth one! I’ve been itching to try some of the patterns in this book. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I’m a starting quilter, love a modern look, love sollids… would really love to win this book: it will be an inspiration!
I’ve been quilting for 2 years but still consider myself to be a beginner. I love modern quilts and need to expand my skills with colour. Thanks for the giveaway and pattern.
I started quilting at the beginning of this year, and have made 13 quilts already. I love the modern quilt aesthetic and have found the most wonderful modern quilting shop in Londonderry, VT to stock up on all my supplies. This book looks wonderful!
This book would be awesome to have!
Love quilting and the modern aesthetic makes it even lovelier for me
I love modern quilting! Birds on a wire, so great!
Great book – and as I do not own one for modern quiltsing would enjoy winning this one. Thanks for that chance.
Jumping in with MBOM. Not a quilter. Yet.
These two artists are so inspiring. I always learn from them.
I’m enamoured with quilting lately – I’d love to start with such a neat book. I think quilting can conjure up such old images as grannies and floral prints that it it refreshing to see this tide of MODERN aesthetics.
I dabble in quilting, mainly because I have trouble finishing an actual bed-size piece! But I’ve made some fun and cherished baby quilts, and am really loving the modern and light patterns I’m seeing lately. The book looks fabulous!
Love the quilt on the cover. I’ve never tried to quilt…am a bit scared that I’ll finish all the blocks & nothing will line up!
I haven’t been quilting/sewing for too long, just a few years trying all different things. I’m having fun and always learning. I already bought their book, it’s really great. I love their aesthetic.
This book looks so interesting! Thank you for the giveaway opportunity!
Im a newbie in quilting and handmade clothing. it has been really fun and I would like more books and tips for learning:D
Love the look of this book! I love quilting but I love seeing a more modern, less “country” looking. Quilts that could be draped over the couch (or hung over it) and not look out of place.
I’ve only made two quilts, both out of old shirts! One all flannel, and one t-shirt quilt. I’d love to quilt more, and have a sewing room set up already.
I quilted quite a bit for several years but then lost my quilting mojo. The Quilts Made Modern book looks like it contains projects which will inspire me to quilt again!
I love the projects in this book. I have been quilting for a few years and love the modern quilts that play with basic shapes and colors.
I love to quilt! I like the modern aesthetic but also appreciate the traditional. The only thing I need is MORE time!
I’d love to win some skype time with Weeks and Bill! I already have their book, so if I won a copy, it would make a great gift for a special quilting buddy. Bill and Weeks have really influenced how I think about quilting.
Dreaming of all the different color configurations that I could use to make this pillow! Thanks for the pattern and inspiration!
I’m new to quilting and I love the modern aesthetic. It’s so crisp, clean, and cheerful. I’ve only done 2 very scrappy quilts from old baby clothes and grandpa clothes for one of my family’s friends. So as I’ve been sucked into the addicting world of quilting, I have fallen in love with modern quilts. I can’t wait until I can start my very own quilt.
Thanks for the chance to win this great book!
I just started to sew and, with a baby niece or nephew on the way, would like to make my first quilt. Of course, then I’ll have to make some quilts for my own kids too!
I am a quilter and long time fan of Weeks and Bill.
I’m relatively new to quilting, and I do enjoy the modern aesthetic a lot. It’s what drew me in to actually try it myself, after having watched various older family members do it over the years.
I like how the modern patterns give things a very fresh look, and often really showcase the modern fabrics that have been coming out.
I am a new quilter, but I am hooked!!! I love modern patterns becuase of the clean lines and the unexpected play with color. I am still learning and would love to have this book to teach me more! Just found your blog, and I love it!!
I saw this book in person and loved it. I hope I win.
Yes – I quilt! Yes, I am doing the Modern Block of the Month and Yes – I would love to win this book!! Thanks for the giveaway!
I’ve been sewing for almost 60 years, but quilting for only 2. I love the creativity of quilting. I didn’t know about quilt patterns or look at any for the first year. It was such a growing experience.
I’ve been quilting for 10 years. I’m not sure how that happened! Anyway, I started by using patterns and then bought the EQ5 program to do the math and color variations for me. Since then I have designed many quilts and have moved from the traditional to more modern lines. Though much of my stash is still very traditional so it is a challenge. The book looks great and the pillow pattern is wonderfully straightforward. Thanks!
I’m just a beginner but I love the modern designs!!
Thanks
Looks like a wonderful book would love to add it to my very small modern quilting library.
Looks like a fun book. I’m a more traditional quilter, but am always open to trying something new.
I just started quilting this year and am loving it. I NEED to make that Transparency Quilt… such a gorgeous pattern!!
I bought their last book before I had really started quilting – it taught me so much about design.
I’ve only made one quilt before, but I really want to make time to do more. There are loads of ideas in my head but no time to get a project started (much less finished!).
I learn so much from Weeks and Bill. Thanks for the pattern, and for featuring two of my favorite quilt artists.
Thanks for the pillow pattern. Can’t wait to make it. I’ve been quilting seriously for the past three years, although I’ve been sewing for years. I love seeing the modern twist on the traditional practice of quilt making.
I’m just learning!I made blocks for a paintbox quilt and my mom and I just worked together to come up with a layout. I think I’ve caught the bug!
actually oday has been my first patchwork class with my girls, i work with teen moms in brazil and a voluntary teacher is teaching them so they can make stuff at home while baby sleeps, got to learn some new things myself too!!!
This looks like a wonderful book.. I took up quilting because I was inspired by my mom and great aunt. It is so wonderful!
Thank you so much for the pillow pattern. I enjoyed learning about this new book and it’s going straight to the top of my “Want It, Need It” list!
I love the quilt on the cover of this book, would love to make it!
I love to quilt, but I’ve never heard of these authors. I’d be very interested in reading their book!
i just started quitling recently and i love it! this looks like a wonderful book.
Thanks for the great offer. I hope to own a copy of the book soon. Some how!!!
I’m addicted to quilting…and I’m currently obsessed with solids…I love the idea of using solids to make traditional quilt patterns…I’ve just finished collecting 30 different fabrics for a monochromatic log cabin quilt in yellows of different values!!!
LOVE modern quilts…I think this is why I’ve become so interested in quilts lately, seeing all these beautiful modern projects…this book looks amazing and I’d love to win! Thanks for the chance.
Thank you for the free download! Once my sewing machine makes it’s way back to me from our storage in Oklahoma (in Arizona now) I’m sooo making it! Or three… This will be my first real attempt at quilting. I’ve been bitten by the crafting bug, and quilting is my new niche to tackle, thanks to my lovely grandma (RIP Grandma Lockhart!).
I’m retired now and quilting up a storm. This would make a nice addition to my pattern collection.
I’m really beginning to get into modern quilts, so I would love this book. Thanks for the chance.
I have recently started quilting, with a very basic squares pattern, I am hand piecing and also planning on hand quilting it. This pattern looks quite simple, however has a huge amount of wow factor, and would be easy to make bigger or smaller. I love it, thank you!
My grandmother is an award winning quilter, and she taught me how to sew. It would be a great tip of the hat to her if I could figure out how to quilt myself!
While sewing is not new to me, quilting is. I have been taking my time, making small blocks and small projects (sewing machine cover).. I’m *almost* ready to tackle a full sized quilt!
Count me in. I love giveaways, but who doesn’t, right?
Yes, I’m a big fan of theirs, and I’d love to add this new book to my collection. Thx for the chance.
I’m really drawn to these contemporary quilt designs and have a big stash of solids by now.
I’m always looking for new inspiration! Would love the book for that!
I love to see new spins on quilting!!!! I would love this!!!
I would love to make the quilt featured on the cover. I want to see more!
I have done some very simple, modified quilts with my step-mom as presents – they were sort of our calling card for several Christmases! But I’d love to learn more complicated techniques than just alternating blocks of fabric. I’m in Kappa Delta and what I’d really love to be able to do is make a quilt for the house that’ll be passed on long after I’ve left the chapter!
Wow! I love those sweet birds. Thanks for the sneak peak and the chance to win!
Thank you so much for the pillow pattern! I love it. I would love to win this book. =]
searchingoutsimple@comcast.net
I have been a fan of Weeks and Bill for many years. I have learned so much from their books. I love that they encourage quilters to quilt their own quilts. It is so rewarding.
Love the book idea and would love tackling a modern quilt!
I am a quilter and proud of it! I’m part of Nashville’s newly-minted Music City Modern Quilter’s Guild, and I love it! The first things I ever sewed were from quilter’s cottons, and through the years I haven’t quite gotten over how fabulous they are. But modern is definitely my m.o. Thanks for the chance to win!
I dabble in quilting. I like it, but it can be intimidating. Thanks for the giveaway!
Those birds *are* awesome. I would totally love them in various shades of blue on a pillow.
I like the birds. I really like modern quilts. I have quilted in the past and am now doing it again as I slowly make my way toward an early retirement.
Presently I have just started another quilt from weeks and ringles previous book modern quilt workshop. It is the library book quilt for my dad who is a retired librarian
Looks like a fabulous book! I am new to quilting and have only made some doll quilts and place mats. I like the idea of this pillow and it would be perfect addition to my new apartment.
Birds on a wire are great. New to quilting but exciting to start new quilting projects and learning new techniques.
I love quilting, especially modern quilting with fresh modern fabric and I love the quilts of Weeks Ringle and Bill Kerr!
I have always been in love with traditional quilts but I find I am drawn to the simplicity of the new modern quilts. The simple design and the use of color fascinate me. I hope I win so I can try out this new direction!
Thanks for the pillow pattern. I am a novice to sewing and learning to sew by following several awesome craft & sewing blogs. And now I’m getting addicted to quilting blogs, I so badly want to sew a quilt for my baby girl and this book has awesome projects.. crossing my fingers
I’m onto my third quilt top in the last year, about to finally finish the second one (shop quilted it for me, tonight I’m going to attach the binding). I do it when I can, when the hubby allows me a night off with the girls.
Lovin’ it!
I am a beginning sewer and would love to learn how to quilt. I am going to enlist my friends mom to give me some lessons. I love the creativity of it.
I love quilting and saw this book at a quilt shop this last weekend. I am just waiting for next months budget so I can buy it, it looked like an excellent book!
Lovely patterns, and they look doable and enduring as well. With two teen boys, two cats and a dog, I need that toughness in my projects!
I’m joining the Modern Block of the Month–can’t wait to get started, but I have to clean the house for the inlaws’ visit first!
I am a quilter who currently spends more time planning and dreaming of sewing than actually sewing… except for playing and sorting my fabric… A bit too much procrastinating… time for a new book.. hopefully!
Thanks so much for the free pattern! I’m a big fan of Weeks and Bill, love all their books and would love to own “Quilts Made Modern.”
I’ve been quilting for years. I still find the design process so much fun … and the physical sewing kinda tedious. But I can’t have one without the other!
Thank you for this pattern! yes, I quilt (and sew other things too). I would say my style it a hybrid between traditional and modern in that I love the modern fabrics and I often find the symmetry of many traditional blocks & quilts appealing. That said, I love unique quilts with artistry.
I love quilt books so much. My poor, but giving freely, husband just shakes his head at my book addiction.
oh this looks lovely! I am new to quilting, I have only made one so far! But I love it and am always on the lookout for patterns and ideas. Love how clean and fresh that cover quilt is!
My quilt tops have all been traditional. Would love to learn new techniques and make some “modern” quilts.
Hey, I’m new to quilting! I’m very excited about my first project which will be signature quilt for my wedding guests to sign. I got enaged recently and getting a copy of the book would be another fab bit of news!
Thanks for the great pattern and the chance to win a book that could lead to weeks of procrastination!
Love this!!!! Thanks so much for the free pattern! I’m a newbie is almost every way when it comes to sewing/quilting but I LOVE learning new things:)
I’ve only made a few quilts, very novice and basic, but I am always admiring the more complex, modern designs. I would be more willing to spend the time and considerable effort involved if I could make something so beautiful!
I have made a few quilt tops before and want to do a whole quilt soon. This looks like an amazing book! Thanks for the chance to win.
Thanks for this free quilt pattern, it’s beautiful. I’d love to look through this book and pick out a cool project!
Thanks for this free pattern, it’s beautiful. I’d love to look through this book and pick out a cool project!
I LOVE the pattern on the cover. Just getting back into sewing/quilting and would love this book to help me generate some projects
Thanks for the giveaway opp!
I loved Modern Quilt Workshop! I am a starting quilter with 2 quilts under my belt…and all the fabric for their Plain Spoken quilt waiting to be cut. Beautiful designs – thanks for the chance to win!
I’ve been quilting for a while, but I’m really getting into the modern aesthetic. I can never leave a pattern alone, so I really like the improv aspect. Thank you for the giveaway!
I do some quilting, but it seems to come in fits and starts. Thanks for the giveaway!
That’s a beautiful quilt!
I am just starting to quilt, and I love the pattern on the front of this book. It looks like something I could do, even though measuring and cutting accurately still scares me. Thanks for the chance to win it!
