Vote Now: Quilts for Fathers
Grab yourself a cup of coffee and browse the gorgeous Quilts for Fathers for this week’s themed quilt contest. With so many beautiful quilts to choose from, I know we’ll all have a difficult time picking just one favourite, so this week you can pick two favourites.
This week’s sponsor, Jojo’s Quilt Shoppe, has donated three prizes for the quilters who receive the most votes.
BONUS SAVINGS: Also this weekend, everyone can save! Use code TAKE15 during checkout at Jojo’s to receive an ADDITIONAL 15% off your entire order! (excludes gift certificates). Visit: Jojo’s Quilt Shoppe.
Now it’s time for you to vote for your favourites!
- Voting is open Friday – Sunday @ 11:59 p.m.
- One vote per person (based on IP address NOT email address), so have your family and friends cast a ballot for their favourite quilt (from home if you send it to coworkers)
- Winner announced Monday!
How to Vote:
- Review the photos and stories below… there are several, so you’ll need to scroll down to see them all.
- Underneath the photos, scroll down, you’ll see the names of all the quilts with a square button** beside each one. Select the buttons for the quilts you want to vote for. You can select up to two quilts this week.
- Then scroll down, all the way, until you get to the bottom of the names of the quilts. Then press the vote button.
** Note: If you don’t see the square buttons to vote, but instead see the voting results, that means someone on your IP Address already voted, or that the voting period has ended, or that you need to refresh the page to see the voting options. Shared IP Addresses are very common in home or work networks.
Please Note: If you are not seeing all of the photos, check your browser settings. Go to view, and text size. Make sure it’s set at medium. If you need web sites to be larger so you can read them more easily, then use the browser’s Zoom function, not the text resize. You can also use the scroll bar above, beside the photos, to scroll and see the hidden ones.

What remarkable quilting. Your aunt is proud of you.
Lots of beautiful quilts but the one that caught my attention was Joseph’s Coat. How neat that the maker used cotton shirts from GoodWill that were probably worn by many, many fathers. I love that idea. My own dad loved to shop at GoodWill so he would have found this one pretty cool! :-)
