I have enjoyed seeing all the quilts, but I do have the book already, so excuse me from the give away. Thank you for sharing and for hosting.
I have two faves, epilogue, and no place like home. I think I'm drawn to each of them because of the colours/fabrics you used. Thanks for the giveaway!
HI!!!! I love them all!!! They are very sweet and pretty!!! I love Look to the Stars but then I also love Heartfelt!!!! Heartfelt looks very modern but also still very pretty!!! Thanks for the fun give away!!!!

I like No Place Like Home. Although it was hard to pick a favorite. Thanks for the fun giveaway!
Hard to pick just one, but today my favorite is turnaround. I think it's the colors -- like a bit of spring in this endless winter! Thanks for sharing the quilts and their stories, I've enjoyed seeing them!
I love how simple heartfelt is... but I feel the urge to turn it! LOL ain't I a stinker!
Hard to pick just one, but I think All Together Now is the one I would make first.
So hard to choose! There are a few that I'm completely smitten by. I think "Unconditional" is my favorite because it is unique, lets me use a lot of white, and has arrows (so in right now!).
pick a favorite?! gah! but I really really do like Turnaround. The colors and variations are awesome.
I love all you do but Pathways really is my favorite! It is very striking, and I just love the contemporary look.
unconditional is my fav for sure! I always love a HST arranged in a modern way with great fabrics! :)
Thanks!
I have been enjoying your posts about your quilts and would love to make many of them. My favorites (today) are no place like home and second wind. There really is no place like home especially when one is in need of a second wind. Been there and appreciate them both!
I like Turnaround. My eye just keeps moving and moving and I can't stop looking at it!
I love Bitsy Baby. I love the simple, fun design, the limited colour palette and the use of negative space. A really modern look for a modern baby! :-)
I <3 all of them! But if you're going to make me pick one, today it would be Bitsy Baby. Tomorrow it might be something else :)
I have the book already and enjoy it - lots of lovely patterns to make.
Claire
This has been fun, thank you! Looking back, I think No Place Like Home is my MOST favorite. :)
Oops, forgot to follow all the rules. ;) Not Place Like Home is my favorite because of the colors/fabric line you used (LOVE Simply Color), but I also see it looking fabulous in lots of other color schemes. It seems really versatile to me.
I love so many of them, but I think my favorite is All Together Now!
My favorite? Look to the Stars...it's got my name in it and I really want that book cuz when you were in Fort Worth, Texas, you ran out and I'm too lazy to order it but I have purchased the Pinwheel Sampler pattern three times!! Star F, Fort Worth, TX
I love sincerely because it would allow me to use up my large beautiful fabrics :)
sounds like a great give away to me, please count me in.
Happily Everafter and Unconditional are both calling my name. Beautiful quilts!
Love..love...love. Sincerly. So manu things you can do with it :)
LOVE "HEARTFELT"!
THANKS FOR SHARING!

Today I pick Bitsy Baby but tomorrow could be another. I love patchwork quilts but with the other block with just the couple of squares, just love that! Wonderful posts seeing all of the quilts!
I like turnaround because of all of the colors.
I love blue and white quilts that have stars, so Look to the Stars is my favorite!
My favorite is Unconditional. I love the bright colors against the white background. Beautiful!
I think heartfelt would be my favorite, so pretty.
Heartfelt is my favorite among the many beautiful designs Rachel!
How to pick just one! I have a few favorites. I think Happily Ever After comes first though. (then Bitsy Baby and Farsighted).
I've enjoyed seeing them. Thanks for the giveaway.
I like oh happy day. I like the right angles and the size of the squares and rectangles shows off the fabrics nicely.
Thanks!
It's a tie between Farsighted and Turnaround. I love how you can show off big prints in farsighted! I bought your Flipside pattern and am currently making a quilt from Sunnyside fabric. I can't wait to finish that one and snuggle with it!! Thanks!
Can I pick 2? I loved Bitsy Baby when I saw it, but I also love Embrace. Wonderful job on all your quilts for this book.
it's a toss up between Heartfelt and No Place Like Home… I don't think I can pick just one!
My favorites are Oh Happy Day and Bitsy Baby which would show off your favorite fabrics, and No Place Like Home which kind of reminds me of an album block quilt. Thanks!
I personally liked Second Wind, for the sentiment of giving someone hope during an illness, and then Oh Happy Day, as a celebration quilt. Oh Happy Day looks like a good quilt to showcase your favorite fabrics in larger pieces.
I like heartfelt--seems like a great way to use treasured scraps!
They are all so beautiful but my fave is Sweet Cheeks. Really different to my usual style and very much looking forward to trying it out. Congrats on the book.
I loved the colors in Oh Happy Day
There were a lot I really liked. If I have to pick one I'll say "Sincerely".
It's hard to narrow them down! But I like Epilogue and It Takes Two. I love the solids you used in It Takes Two, creating a really cool effect that's not too busy with patterns. :)
I like them all, but No Place like Home, is calling my name loudest. :)
So hard to choose. I think my favorites are Happily Every After and All Together Now. The book is on my list to purchase.
Because I cannot pick just one ... Epiloque and Heartfelt are my two two favorites from your book of lovely quilts.
I would love this book! Embrace and turnaround are my favorites :)
Hmmm... Hard choice, but I pick Embrace as my favorite. The reason is the combination of colors used and especially the peach background.
Beautiful quilts! Look to the Stars is my favorite. I love two color quilts and would like to make a red and white version. Thanks for the chance to win.
No Place Like Home - love that quilt! I can see why you have it on the front cover! I really, really want to make it.. Hope I win so I can!
Unconditional is one of my favorites, it is such a unique and new pattern to me! Love the colors too!
No Place Like Home is my favorite. I LOVE the colors in it! Thanks for the chance to win.
I totally love Oh Happy Day and also Pathways - delicious fabrics used to highlight your pattern.
Each one of these quilts would bring joy to someone's life! My favorite is All Together Now. Love the pattern---love the pretty mix of colors---and love love love the beautiful daughter we adopted thirty years ago!! :-)
hi rachel, long time no speak :D i am super excited for you on your book, congrats!! as for which quilts i like, my fave is unconditional, then happily ever after falls in close behind, close! and then i really like the second wind one, but the first two are my absolute fave! i know you said pick your favorite one, but i figured you'd like more, three's a charm right?
well, i hope life is treating you well, and your family also. i miss the old(er) days...haha, keep up your hard work, it's nice to see you become what you have, had we not be trying so hard to make our business up and coming, i would have more time to quilt, but with all 4 kiddos in school now, i work full time with the husband, and quilt for fun on the side. as well as reading still.
and in case your wondering, i found a few really good authors, but for now i will leave you with one name....colleen hoover. seriously check her out, she is amazing!!
take care chicka, and maybe sometime soon we can catch up.
keep up the hard work, you are a rockstar <3
Rachel, I absolutely adore No Place Like Home; and I agree there's no place like being home. Home is where you live, and I've found being a military wife that you have to make the best of where home is (that is, where the military takes you), step out of your box, and trust the Lord. :) Thank you for the giveaway!
My favorite is definitely happily ever after. I love love love the simple design but stunning overall impact!
My favorite is definitely happily ever after. I love love love the simple design but stunning overall impact!
They are all lovely quilts but my favourite is Oh Happy Day. It just makes me happy looking at it. Perhaps it has something to do the Bonnie and Camille fabrics you have used. They are my favourite too. Thanks for the lovely giveaway.
Unconditional just made my heart sing when I saw it! It is the perfect quilt for my sister in law and will commence as soon as I get a copy of this book! my other fave was sweet cheeks-- with a name like that! I was sold!
Congratulations Rachel--great book!
I like the cover quilt..No Place Like Home ...because of the way the fabric is placed. I can visualize it in so many fabrics and think that it would be a great scrap user. Thanks so much for the giveaway!
No place like home is my favorite. It's got a nice variety of solids and and patterns, so it would be a fun stash buster
I love them all but my favourite hands-down is 'No place like home'... Absolutely gorgeous design and such a nice touch to a new home! Thanks for sharing each of these quilts and for the giveaway x
What I have to choose just one?!?! I guess heartfelt then, I love the use of negative space.
I really like the simplicity of Sweet Cheeks, but am also really drawn to Oh Happy Day! Would love a copy of your book!
satterfieldfamily at sbcglobal dot net
Pathways for sure is my favorite! But I love them all! Thanks for sharing all your wonderful designs. Cynthia
I love No Place Like Home!
Thanks for the giveaway!
I like Second Wind best because it uses two different blocks, and only two, but the arrangement is so interesting. And I love what you said with this quilt "when loved ones are facing and injury or illness, it's easy to feel powerless to help them.
presenting them with a quilt is a sure way to express your willingness to care and comfort."
Farsighted is my fave I think, but they're all great! Thanks for the chance!
Turnaround is my favorite, I know somebody right now that I need to make this one for!
I really like them ALL! I love the colors in oh happy day!
Pathways is definitely my favourite! love the choice of colours and the feeling of improvisation in it. Congrats on so many incredible patterns!
I have certainly enjoyed viewing all the wonderful photos of the quilts in your book. Loved how you presented them. So, that said, "Happily Ever After" would be my favorite and "No Place Like Home" a very close second. Love them all, truly.
Hard to pick one, but for me it is epilogue. Love the colors.
I would have to say the "unconditional" quilt is my favorite. I love how totally different it is! :)
I have enjoyed the look at all of them.... but I really love the Unconditional quilt.
Difficult to pick just one favourite! Bitsy Baby is one I'd love to try though.
Really tough call - I might have to have a tie between the cover girl - no place like home and unconditional. But they are all great - really enjoyed the recap!
I love All Together Now. It is so bright and cheery! I worked in an orphanage in Ecuador for six months and adoption makes me so happy. Each of the fabrics blends into one adorable quilt just as each unique family member comes together to make one beautiful whole.
Unconditional is my favorite but love so many of them! Thanks for a chance to win!!
No place like home is my fave.
My fav is no place like home! Love, love ,love it.
I love Unconditional! Thanks for the chance!
Unconditional, but not really sure why. Because it is modern with just a little bit of color. Because it is modern. Because I just love to look at it.
I really like Bitsy Baby. My cousin is having twin girls in a few weeks so I think it would be fun to make a pair of those for them!
I love your "Pathways" quilt! I seem to have lots of aqua solids in my stash so I'm really drawn in. Thanks for sharing your quilts from your book.
I like Unconditional because I like scrappy stars.
So many beautiful quilts to choose from but I have to say that 'no place like home' is my favorite because it just makes me smile to look at it!!! This is one quilt I know I have to make for my home!!!
I have so enjoyed looking at all of them but No Place Like Home is my favorite. Not sure why, it may just be the colors that appeal to me, but is beautiful!
I enjoyed all the quilts and it is very hard to pick a "favourite". I chose Sincerely because of its simplicity and colour choice.
Thanks for the chance to win this giveaway. To win would be awesome!
I love sincerely. I also love the way you have named them all. really beautiful x
Such pretty quilts. i have to say heartfelt really catches my eye. I love the names of your quilts and the book cover is perfect. Thanks for the give away chance.
They are all very nice but I think I like Heartfelt and No Place Like Home best. It's a tie, sorry, I couldn't pick just one!
I love "It Takes Two" the most. Great quilts; I'd love to win!
I enjoyed seeing all the quilts!! I only narrowed it down to one b/c I have fabric in mind. To share my fav and my reason you need to know I was the only Granddaughter to pick up the fabric/quilting bug from my Grandmother. She passed away, 5 yrs ago, while teaching me to quilt and I inherited much of her stash. I believe farsighted will help me use the many different fabrics more easily, as some fabrics are not 100% cotton. (My Grandmother was old-school, and used whatever fabrics she had/wanted.) So farsighted is my pick.
Thank you for sharing all the quilts from made with love.
It is hard to pick just one but no place like home calls my name. Love the quilts in the book,.
Hey Rachel! All the quilts are awesome, but my favourite is definitely 'No Place Like Home' - I love the double-tones of the blocks, and how you matched the solids with the prints.
Thanks for the giveaway opportunity!
Congrats on your book, it looks like a great one.
It was very hard to choose my favorite, because I like so many, but I think Second Wind is my favorite.
Thanks for the opportunity in your giveaway. :)
Sonia
I think No place like home is my favorite. But that was a hard choice. I really do think they are all lovely!
brookeali(at)hotmail.com
I like Unconditional and Oh Happy Day. Thanks for the give away!
no place like hope is my fave, thanks
Heartfelt speaks to me the most, though really I like all of them. :) Many thanks for the giveaway!
I think my favorite would be Heartfelt, but I can imagine using all of them for someone in my life!!
Thank you for the opportunity to win a copy!
Oh my gosh I can hardly choose. I think Happily Ever After, and No Place Like Home. But there are still several others I love too. If only I had time to make the. All!
If I can only choose one, I love Happily Ever After because those stars are gorgeous!! carolann427@aol.com
No Place like Home is my favorite! thanks!
I really like the clean, blocky look of oh happy day and bitsy baby.
I love Unconditional. I can see myself making this one. It reminds me of a star, but the look is fresh.
Sincerely was my favourite of you posts. They are all lovely it was Sincerely that got me think about colours and who to make it for :)
Thanks for the giveaway
Misspbar at hotmail. Com
I love Look to the Stars and No Place Like Home. I can't choose only one. I chose No Place Like Home because it's so fresh looking and I love all the colors you chose. Look to the Stars because I can never get enough of those stars, and I love the blue & white.
THanks for the great giveaway. I'm really looking forward to your book!
I like Happily Ever After and Pathways -- one more traditional, one modern solids. Both lovely!
Hard choice!! I think Turnaround
Rachel, I'm sorry, but you have to many great quilts to pick just one! I love Bitsy Baby...as it says simple and sweet. I may use this for my next GRANDson. Oh Happy Day.....love Marmalade, have some, have friends who love it, too. All Together Now....just got my third "chosen" Grandchild. So special...yes, blended. The list could go one!
I love Oh Happy Day the most, I think because it is so balanced and I do like squares and rectangles because they are easier for me to do.
Bitsy Baby or Sincerely.....hmmm, it's a tough choice!
For speed's sake and because it would be great for displaying larger prints, toda I choose Sincerely!
It's been fun seeing all your quilts - my favorite was oh happy day. Just because that's how it made me feel - happy. And we all need happy in our lives. Thanks for the tour and the chance to win your book!
I like Turnaround because of the colors.
I liked so many of them, but I think Happily Ever After was my favorite!
I love all the quilts!! One of my favorites is Pathways. The colors just spoke to me... my kind of colors & I've never seen a quilt design like it so I'd love to make one. :)
I enjoyed the tour of quilts. I'd love to make an epilogue.
I love the shapes and colors in No Place like Home
My very favorite quilt is the one on the cover. I love all the vibrant colors!
So many to pick from! I love star blocks, so my eyes are drawn to Happily Ever After and Look to the stars. I can see some great quilting in the negative spaces on both of them. And Happily Ever After could be used to showcase a bigger print, which I am always looking for!
Sandy A
I really like (and want to make) them all! Unconditional takes the top spot for my very favorite though!!
Rachel your book is close to my heart, I work in a pediatric icu and when quilts are donated to our patients they lift the spirits of both the families and the staff. My dad recently passed away and I so wish I had had the time to make him a comfort quilt, those quilts leave you with a part of your loved ones after they've gone. All of your quilts are beautiful, but Look to the Stars I'd my favorite!
I had a difficult time narrowing this down, but in the end I chose Epilogue as my favorite. It's beautiful and it really speaks to me. I know how hard it is to deal with mental illness, for myself and as a family member. My favorite saying is "ain't nobody normal." No one is immune from such issues. A quilt showing you care and love someone who is suffering can be just the "hug" they need. It could be that gentle nudge toward a healing heart!
I absolutely love happily ever after - a perfect quilt for a perfect sentiment!
I love pathways. I have pieced a similar top, now I just need to finish it!!!!!!!!!!
Hard to pick a favorite but I think I choose pathways. I love solids! Thanks for sharing all the quilts from the book. I'd love to win!
I love All Together Now! Congrats on the book!
Bitstream baby or happily ever after.
Very difficult to choose but for now I think it is pathways.
Oh my stars. I am digging the gray contemporary look!
Pathways for me although there were several I could have picked. Thanks for the tour.
I'm a sucker for pixel quilts so I like the Bitsy baby pattern
I love Heartfelt, I think it is a combination of the balance and the colors. Thanks for the chance.
I love Look to the Stars! I am going to make one with my scraps! Gorgeous combo of classic and modern.
Happily Ever After is my favorite. I love your color combinations, just can imagine it in others as well.
My fav is your cover quilt - There's No Place Like Home - I really like the pattern and the cheerful fabrics you used to make. And lets face it...there really isn't anyplace like home.
They're all so lovely, and so many of them! I like Second Wind and Far sighted the best because they are so easy and fast to put together. But then I like them all!. Thanks for the chance, Rachel.
It is a toss up between Turnaround and No Place Like Home. My first pick would have to be No Place Like Home. But when I was talking with my daughter about the quilts she told me that we had to do a quilt like Turnaround for her bed. Those quilts are great eye catchers.
I absolutely adore "Heartfelt"!!!! what a lovely memory quilt this could be.
I love happily ever after and no place like home. Looks like a great book:)
Thank you for sharing! I really like epilogue.
They are all beautiful but my favorite is 'Look to the Stars' because I love stars and HSTs. And the blues in the quilt:-)
hildy(at)ebertzeder(dot)de
I love Look to the Stars. I guess I'm a dreamer and love stars, stars, stars, and more stars. It doesn't hurt that it also was made it blue and white. Thank you for the look at all the quilts in the book and someone is going to be over the moon when (s)he receives the book. Congrats on a wonderful book and thanks for your generosity.
I <3 the 'all together now' quilt. I would be thrilled to win a copy of your book. I haven't been quilting for very long and love coming over to visit your website when I want some inspiration.
My favorite is Look to the Stars. I love stars and HST's. All the quilts were beautiful. Thanks for giveaway.
I enjoyed seeing all of them but my absolute favorite is Turnaround. I love the simplicity of the rich color and design.
Im totally in love with no place like home
I love your book and it's so hard to choose just one quilt, but no place like home is my absolute favourite.
No Place Like Home
Especially since I have been away!
They are all just incredible. You have made a great selection from your many wonderful creations for this book! I love Sweet Cheeks (quick and great for showcasing some larger scale prints) and Second Wind (it somehow makes me keep staring and trying to work it out - it's a fun one!).
They are all so beautiful! I would have to say Unconditional, because I am a star junkie! So lovely! Thank you.
I love the pathways quilt...the colors are so appealing...reminds me of a walk near the ocean...and makes me want to curl up and relax. Thank you for a lovely giveaway.
My favorite quilt would be 'No Place Like Home' but I especially liked reading the post about surprising your friend with the deployment quilt. Very touching, thanks for sharing.
I really like Farsighted. Simple, but has a very comfy feel.
My favorite is Turnaround.
Thanks for the chance.
I really like the embrace.
they're all great, but I like Around the Block and Pathways best. thanks for the chance to win.
I like Sweet Cheeks. I like the simplicity and the potential to change the colors as needed or even adapt various parts to use more fabrics. And I think the size is perfect for a baby quilt like you said. It has been fun seeing the quilts on your blog!
Do you know how hard it was to pick one?! I'm going with 'Theres no place like home'. I love the block and can see lots of possibilities! The block is great!
After going through all you quilts to pick my favorite...I then noticed it was on the front cover!
There's no place like home for me please!
Oh Happy Day is my favorite. I'm always looking for baby quilt patterns and this one is perfect!
My favorite is the cover quilt.
My favorite is the cover quilt.
I love the Happily Ever After quilt the best. It's a great mix of traditional and modern, superb color selection,and a whole lot of happy!
Look to the Stars is my favorite. Plus I love the stars in the quilting.
I love them all, but like There's No Place Like Home. Thanks!!
Turnaround and Happily Ever After are my favorites. Thanks for the generous giveaway!
I LOVE the "Oh Happy Day" quilt. I am a fan of simplicity, so that pattern is perfect, and the colors - they couldn't be better!
Thanks so much for all your inspiration! I hope to finish my own quilt someday... :)
I love so many!!!!!! All Together Now is one that catches my eye! Love them all! Thanks for an opportunity to win a copy of your book!!!!
Love All Together Now (bright pops of color) and Embrace (reminds me of rainbow sherbet ice cream)!
Hard to choose one...love No Place Like Home an d All Together Now...but I have to go with Sweet Cheeks cause I just have my first grandchild. Would love to win!
My favourite is "Oh, happy day" if I remember correclty. But do not ask me why. Just because (as my kids would say).
ehodasz at yahoo dot com
My favorite is Happily Ever After. I love the way the stars seem to join the squares.
I like Heartfelt. Thanks!
Oh gosh Rachel, it's so hard to choose just one. I really do like quite a few of them from your book. I can't wait to get a copy of my own and put that on my Amazon wish list already too. I'll probably buy it before anyone will even see it on my list though.
I guess my favorite one is "Second Wind". I really love this one because you can show off larger fabrics, or fussy cut to highlight certain parts of a larger fabric.
Great book Rachel. Thank you for the chance to win a copy.
My favorite is "Second Wind" I love it for the designs and color choice but also for what you said,
When loved ones are facing and injury or illness, it's easy to feel powerless to help them. Presenting them with a quilt is a sure way to express your willingness to care and comfort." That is SOO true.
Thanks for the chance to win a copy of the book. So many great designs!
i have three favorites farsighted, it takes two and no place like home. but my bestest favorite is it take two. all of your quilts are incredible. what do you do with the finished quilts? have you thought about giving them away in a contest? thank you for so much beauty and keep up the great work. i would also like to see these as kits. babscorbitt@gmail.com
Look to the Stars!
There's No Place Like Home is my favorite; both for
the sentiment and the colors! Congratulations on your book!
I love Look to the Stars, Unconditional and O Happy Day, so how do you choose just one, when they are all so fun! I love stars, angles and simplicity. Love the book and the opportunity to win one.
Thank you!!
I like All Together Now.
Thanks Regina
I love No Place Like Home! Thanks for the opportunity ;)
Only one fav? :) There's no place like home.
I loved Look to the Stars quilt and even pinned it so I would remember to get the book. After that quilt, I was curious to see what other lovelies you were going to share. I like the fact that your quilts have an old fashioned look but with a modern twist! Keep the quilt ideas coming!
I just love Turnaround!
I love "unconditional". I love the pops of color on the light background. I love several of them, but I have to put this one at the top of the list!
I really like all the quilts, but Unconditional stands out to me. I'm not exactly sure why it does--I suppose I like the lines and the clean look. I think I am also drawn to the color palette you chose. Whatever the reason, I love it! Thanks for the giveaway!
"Heartfelt" really delights me - so many possibilities with it. The graphics are strong. Thanks for the chance to win a copy of your thrilling book!

All Things Together is my favorite, but would like to try several sometime..
My all-time favorite was your sampler pin wheel sew along a few years back......but, if I have to choose a fav from your book, I would say "happily ever after" ...just cause I love stars! Thanks for the giveaway!
Far-sighted because you could really highlight big print fabrics :-)
I ordered your book for all 4 of my girls for Christmas as they are new to quilting. I especially like Happily Ever After.
My fav is No Place Like Home…pink, orange, turquoise, lime green…what's not to love!!!
I've looked forward to the daily posts of your quilts. Happily Ever After is my favorite!
