I've actually never quilted yet! I'm just starting to work with fabrics (I try all sorts of things crafting!) to start, I will DEFINITELY use patterns, but I'd love to extend beyond that at some point!

For me, it's improv...I like the organic feeling that comes with that :)

I'm very new to quilting (other than rag quilting), but I think I prefer traditional patterns. I'm still too scared to improvise. ;)
Those 30's reproduction fabrics are gorgeous! Thank you for the chance to win!

I usually use a pattern. Once in awhile I will do freehand for something different. Thank you for a wonderful giveaway! :)

I usually add my own little *touch* to a traditional pattern-- something to make it "mine". :-) Thank you for this giveaway-- I LOVE those 1930's prints-- to me, they make the most cheerful quilts ever!! :-)

I stick with traditional from a pattern because I not a very good quilter (that was my Mom), but my favorite kind of quilting is someone else's art quilts!

I am commenting on behalf of my sister, because I would love to win this for her. She tends to do both. She made a quilt recently for our daughter using a pattern, but made another for our grandmother of her own design. Thank you for this lovely giveaway!

I like traditional from a pattern, because I just started out! I do hope I eventually get comfortable enough with my skills for improv.

I'm a newbie quilter so I definitely prefer traditional quilting from a pattern. Maybe later I'll try something of my own! Beautiful fabrics!

I like to do a combination of both. I love tradtion but I also love to add my own touch.
