I prefer the look of hand quilting but machine quilting is so much faster so that is what I do.
Milk Chocolate, with white a close second.
My question - Do you drink something when sewing? Coffee, tea, water, or something stronger???
Sometimes, I drink coffee but I'm usually so worried about a spill that I don't.

(I also have 3 more featherweights that my MIL has asked my husband and I to look at.)

Sue
sue52g@gmail.com
Whoop Whoop for you Sarah! 1 million page views is something to crow about for sure!
ReplyDeleteTo answer Sue's question - I bind both by hand and by machine, depending upon the quilt's use.
So my question is... what is your favorite time of the day (or night) to sew?
Follower since the first time I visited you, but just started following you on Instagram (they finally made an app for Windows users) I', @buzzinbumble
ReplyDeleteFavorite time to sew? Any TIME!! I'm 24-7 most days. My question? Christmas is around the corner - what is the number one item on your quilter's Christmas Wish List?
ReplyDeleteI am a GFC follower.
ReplyDeleteFollow via email and in my blogger reading list too ;) Kathi
ReplyDeleteI've linked up.
ReplyDeleteI follow you on Instagram!
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog, and my favorite time to sew is anytime before 6 pm. I'm usually out of energy by then.
ReplyDeleteMy questions is: Chocolate or Vanilla?
My all time wish is to continue be able to see to sew, as I have some eye challenges, and I do a lot of charity sewing. I follow you on cloud. feedly. A friend set me up with it. I love your ideas and enthusiasm. Question, Make one project at a time, or have many going?
ReplyDeleteI want EQ7! This paper, pencil, ERASSING is so old school. Open seams or press to one side?
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog...religiously!
ReplyDeleteI have EQ6 but necer learned how to use it :-S My question, do you quilt your own quilts or send them to a quilter?
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog :-)
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Pressed to the side. Gotta nest those seams. Are you a pinner or no?
ReplyDeleteI linked to Whoop Whoop.
ReplyDeleteYES...I'm one of those extreme pinners! Gotta have those sharp pins too...yeah I'm kinda picky but it works for me. Thanks for the sweet giveaway, Sarah...love the basket! My question: since I am currently on vacation, do you make a point to visit a quilt shop when you are out of town on vacation?
ReplyDeleteI'm a pinner--some of the time. If I can press it together I prefer to do that, but sometimes it just won't work. Where do you look for quilting inspiration?
ReplyDeleteYou go, girl! Congratulations on the milestone! My answer: I look for quilting inspiration on the colorful pages of magazines, any magazine will do. My question: What do you do when you enter a quilt store and don't find what you are looking for: leave, or purchase something else?
ReplyDeleteI find inspiration in solving quilting problems...Not enough of a fabric, a color I Have To Use... A special gift for a special reason.
ReplyDeleteMy question is; Do you ever get up extra early to sew?
Is my husband reading this? I rarely leave a quilt store empty handed -even when I can't find what I'm looking for. It's like dress shopping, the perfect dress is always the one you weren't looking for. My question - The perfect holiday is on the coast or in the mountains?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on one million! The perfect holiday could be either coast or mountains. How about we alternate years?
ReplyDeleteMy question - where is your favorite quilt retreat?
Kathy at ycreekquilts@gmail.com
The Oregon coast is beautiful so you would definitely find me heading to the coast. My question - solids or prints?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! Prints. Milk or dark?
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! Congratulations on an amazing milestone and thanks for the chance to win such a generous gift! My answer to Cynthia Brunz Designs question is prints. Although I would like to make a solids quilt. My question: how many quilts have you made? If it's a lot, just ball park it! :)
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog!
ReplyDeletePrints! :) Question, Triangles or won't touch them!

ReplyDeleteSusie
Nope, never sew over pins. How many UFOs are in the works at your place?
ReplyDeleteAnn
I just added them up this week. There are 37 quilts in some stage of progress. Frightening, right? What is your favorite designer to make quilts with and why?
ReplyDeleteBrigette Heitland I would say is my favorite designer. I love the patterns and fabrics she comes up with because they seem to be so fresh and modern and just what I am thinking of at the moment she creates them. She has a couple new lines coming out called Paper and one later called Ink. Love them. Okay so my question is where do you find inspiration for your quilts?
ReplyDeleteHello Kris,
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely anything can give inspiration for quilts - crockery designs, pictures in books, fabric designs, leaves picked up when out on a walk...
My question - would you rather sew to Italian baroque or heavy metal?
Definitely Pepsi!!! Cats or dogs?
ReplyDeleteGosh, my question couldn't have been that difficult could it?
ReplyDeleteCongratulation Sarah! I have put a mention and link on my blog.
Congrats on your milestone, Sarah!
ReplyDeleteDogs! Plain or peanut M&M's?
Thanks for nice give-away.
ReplyDeletePeanut M&Ms. Bias or straight-grain binding?
Thanks for nice give-away.
ReplyDeletePeanut M&Ms. Bias or straight-grain binding?
Straight grain so far. Have you started Christmas shopping?
ReplyDeleteBias Binding :) Would you rather only wear purple or orange for the rest of your life?!
ReplyDeleteI follow by email x
ReplyDeleteI'm a redhead, so definitely not orange, it would have to be purple, although to be honest I would rather it be green or blue. LOL
ReplyDeleteDo you prefer cats or dogs?
missysaprons@gmail.com

ReplyDeletemissysaprons@gmail.com
Congrats, Sarah!! I would wear purple for the rest of my life...it happens to be my favorite color!
ReplyDeleteIf you had to give up either chocolate or coffee, which would it be?
Chocolate. I need the coffee, just want the Chocolate. What colour are your eyes?
ReplyDeleteGreen. Binding -- machine stitch or hand stitch?
ReplyDeleteHand stitch binding.
ReplyDeleteQuestion: beach or mountains?
Hmmm hard question. I like both. Depends on my mood and cravings.

Where to retire? Right where I am—I'm already retired. Love it here. Paper book or e-reader?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations of a million views. What a milestone! I prefer paper books but use an e-reader all the time since we travel so much and that's an easier way to carry several books. My question: How many sewing machines do you own?

ReplyDeleteSave every little scrap or pitch them?
I follow via email.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Sarah! I save a lot of scraps, but not every one. I have been known to pitch them and then rescue them later!
ReplyDeleteWhat's your oldest UFO?
Long time follower.
ReplyDeleteMy oldest UFO is 2 years old, but I only have 3 total. :-). What time of day do you like to quilt?
ReplyDeleteI follow via email.
ReplyDeleteI'm a new follower on Instagram, as Ceciliaquilts. Thanks for the great giveaway and congratulations!
ReplyDeleteDid not see an either/or question so I'll just answer the last question posted. My oldest UFO is a batik quilt I pieced when I lived in Ecuador 3 years ago. Thought having a long arm would eliminate the stash of quilt tops. Who am I kidding?! So, white, red, or something in between (wine that is).
ReplyDeleteI save anything more than half inch.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your accomplishment.
Large or small quilts?
Good questions, but I've never tried wine. However my oldest UFO is probably 10 years old, I had lots of stress then and to help reduce it I was sewing like crazy......sewing has always been relaxing for me.
ReplyDeleteSarah, congrats on the 1 million views, that's whoop, whoop worthy!
I'm a blog follower........question is..........how many pair of scissors do you have in your sewing area?
ReplyDelete
