They are all so beautiful, but I would have to pick the red & orange combo as my favorite.
I like the red and orange, but they’re all lovely. Thanks for the chance!
I loved all of the pet quilts. I guess it shows how important they are to us!
The fabrics are very lovely. My favourite is the grape and boysenberry – but I’d be happy with any one of them.
Love all the quilts and colors….especially like the grape/fusia. thanks
Blue! Always blue! I’ve had a Bird quilt ufo for too many decades as I’m still collecting just the right Blue for my Blue Jays :)
Blue and turquoise
I’ve got lots of blues and greens, but need the red and orange colors to fill inl
I love them all. It was really to pick 4 to vote on.
They are all so beautiful, but I’ll have to go with the red and orange as my favorites. Thank you for the chance to win!!! Meghan
I love the grape and boysenberry, but they’re all gorgeous!
I love all the colors but I’d have to say greens for my applique work!
The fabrics are beautiful. I can just imagine using the blue bundle in an applique quilt. Thank you for the chance to win.
BLUE!! All colors were cool tho.
They are all luscious color and I`d love choose Blue.Thanks for the chance!
red and oranges
I love color! So I would be thrilled to win any of these beautiful fabric packs.

I’d have to say the red and oranges are my favorite.
very hard choice, but I narrowed it to blue-and-turquiose.
Sorry, can’t decide. Love them all!
It’s so hard to choose. I think I like the lime green and dark green the best with Blue coming in a strong second, but they are all so beautiful.
Lime greens and blues. Yummy colors and quilts of love.

I like the red and oranges
What wonderful colors, I love the red and oranges. It’s hard to choose…. Thank you for the chance to get one of these gorgeous fabrics.
I would have to say the greens, because I seem to be very low on green fabrics.
“Krazy Katz” and “Winnie and Tiffany” had animals that reminded me of certain friends’ “lie around” pets.
The malva and blackberry are simply delicious! I miss the lilacs from “up north” and would use these to create a stunning lilac quilt!
I like the blue & turquoise bundle.
How gorgeous! The autumn is my fave. You have a great website :-)
The pink/peach bundle looks delicious!
Lovely colors! My favorite are the blues. Thanks for the chance to win
I really like the orange and red bundle, but fell in love with the grape and boysenberry bundle as well… Need them, I guess ;)
Lovely pet quilts all of them!
They are all fantastic If I had to chose its a tossup between the blue and the grape one.
I voted … although it was very hard to pick just one favorite of these great quilts. It is also hard to pick just one favorite of these wonderful fabric bundles. I shall say the one with the pink and orange. Thanks for hosting Pets on Quilts and for the chance to win … :) Pat
I’ve always like to sew or wear orange and reds combos as they are bright/happy colors so that will be my wish for the fabrics bundle. I also voted which was very hard to do as they were all very interesting.
Love the yellows and purples!
I have a love of all animals. My heart goes out to those who have had to put down beloved pets as I have done recently. As for the bundled fabric I love the blue collection. Thank you to all for sharing their talents and their pets with us.
They are all wonderful colors Grape N Bosenberry would be what I would choose. I am gathering these colors to make a quilt and these would work perfectly with what I have already.
I like the blue bundle the best.
There’s no question – I LOVE the Autumn bundle! Love the pet quilts too and I now feel guilty that I haven’t made one for my best buddy! Another project for my to do list!
They’re all beautiful! I have to say the blues are my favorite.
I love the Lime green and Dark green bundle. Thanks for hosting this opportunity.
Great Colors! Thanks for the Opportunity!
Love the colors of the giveaway fabrics and the quilts with the animals are hard to choose from they are all wonderful!
Such lovely shades of colour. I really like the Autumn mix and then the blue mix…oh heck they are all lovely. Thank you for your generosity.
Great pet quilts to vote for.
I love the taupes.
They are all beautiful! I love the Autumn (and all the others too!).
I would love either the grape and blackberry or the malva (plum) and blackberry. Either one would make me smile if I won them.
They are all beautiful…I love the Grape, my favorite color..Thanks for the opportunity!!!
Wow!Olive green and brown with black bundle is great! Also Autumn and Lime green & dark green!You said just want one? I can not pick just one ….
