I so enjoyed the recent thread asking what your favorite gadget is. I have learned so much from this wonderful board about alot of things. Who would have thought about cinnamon? Now, my question to you - who or what inspires your quilting? Alot of my inspiration comes from online sources. My top 3 websites are The Quilting Board, Quiltsville Quips and Snips and the Missouri Star Quilt Co. Some others that I follow are Crazy Mom Quilts, Ivory Spring, Lizzie Lenard Vintage Sewing, Dining Room Empire, My Quilt Infatuation, Quilting is my Therapy, and Stitched in Color. Please share your inspiration.

Pinterest is also a good picture source and of course my best inspiration comes from all our Quiltingboard members. Hope all my addresses work.

I get inspiration all around me. Tile floors or walls, peoples clothes, posts on Facebook (not necessarily quilting related) you name it!

I like to look at pictures on this board. I'll probably never be as good as most of the other members, but I'm having fun trying.

My favorite site right now for inspiration is Quilters Cache.

I'm doing a Buckeye Beauty that is built around some fussy cuts from a few wild shirts I bought at the thrift store.

Trying to do something slightly different with each quilt.

I'm doing the stained glass BOM and might try the Splendid Sampler to try and stretch and hopefully improve on my skills.

I go to the fabric store and walk around. Sometimes I see a fabric that I just love and that inspires me to make a quilt with it. It just "talks" to me.

Stained glass windows, (I'm working on a wall hanging using that method) travelling, (My next quilt will be based on a carpet I saw in Turkey) and particularly beautiful batiks that I run across, (Then, I have to find a pattern for them!)
Whenever I see a pattern I like on the internet, I save an image of it in a special file so I can always go back and look through my favourites again when it's time for a new project.

Thanks, DresiArnaz, for telling us about Quilters Cache. From there, I found Miss Sews-it-all. Great site and she collects vintage machines. This is so much fun!
