Show me a picture of your favorite. Now this is not the one that was the easiest, or the one that took the least amount of time. It may be the opposite. The one that was a struggle for maybe two years, but when it was done, you stood back and thought "Look what I have done!".
What one has given you the most satisfaction of all. I want to see it.

I think that this is my favourite quilt. I found most of it in a charity shop, a couple of the blocks half completed, and most of the fabric in different areas of the shop. I completed it as a QAYG, and gave it to my sister.

This is my favorite. It was the biggest one I had attempted, the most time consuming and challenging, made for my sister's 50th birthday, to use in her log cabin. I designed horse-head medallions by freehanding the profiles on a paper plate, and figuring out how to quilt it using multiple motifs instead of just staying "safe" with what I felt comfortable. I figured if she could handle a 7-acre farm, animals, new job, and a new house all by herself, surely I could try new things with my quilting.
My sister had moved all her belongings, horses, dogs, and cats after a nasty divorce and began life anew . She knew that God had provided everything for her transition, including her unexpected dream home. I named this quilt "Providence Lodge"--and she loves it every day.
PS This photo was before I washed out the marking lines.

How fun this thread is! I have really enjoyed seeing all of the beautiful quilts. Thanks for sharing ladies. My favorite quilts are these two. Both gifts to family.
