These are beautiful!!!
I love! Quiltalongs! I’ve done 50 or 55 in the past 27 years. I try to do 2 a year. My favorite flower is the daffodil. I love these new fabrics and the QAL pattrrn!
My favorite flower is the simple daisy.
I find quilt-alongs hard to resist, and I can’t wait for this one to get started!
This quilt along is beautiful
Such a beautiful line! I’ve done 3 quilt-a-longs.
WOW, that will be an awesome quilt along. I’m pretty new to quilting and have only participated in 3 other quilt alongs.
I’ve done several SBOWs with you. I’m in the last month of Woven with Temecula. My favorite flower is a Sterling rose.
Gorgeous, Val and Lisa!
I do love quilt alongs and I’ve done maybe 10
Garden Gatherings looks fantastic!
Wonderful book the fabrics are gorgeous
That quilt for the quilt-a-long is amazing!!
Love the bright colors! I have never done a Quilt Along! I’d love to try one!
Is this fabric flannel or cotton?
Love this book
This quilt is so beautiful! Can’t wait for the SAL.
Love the new fabric line:) I have participated in about 8 sew-alongs since I started quilting in 1999! BUT….I fell behind in most of them….LOL. The quilts eventually got finished. I am seriously considering doing this one as it’s a king size and would look beautiful on my bed:) As for my favorite flower it’s the LILAC. The fragrance is sweet and brings back wonderful childhood memories. They only bloom in the spring, but are SSSSOOOOO worth waiting for. I’ve planted a lilac tree every place I’ve lived. Thanks.
I don’t care for quilt alongs. It is not convenient to watch them on YouTube.
I LOVE LOVE sunflowers! Thanks for all that you do for us, Lisa and PG gang!!
My favorite flowers are sweet peas. They are so fragrant.
I like quilt alongs. I have completed 3 different ones. The “Garden Gatherings” quilt is beautiful. What a great quilt design.
I like (not in love yet) QALs because I’m a visual learner so find the videos very helpful. I’ve taken part in at least 3 that I can think of. 🤞
Love the fabric! My favorite flower is hollyhocks.
OOOOOOOOOOO Sew excited to get my hands on this new line and book!
I do like watching on YouTube. Always wanting to learn new tips.
I have never done a quilt along. Im always afraid i wont keep up….
I have completed 3 quilt alongs. I love the “Gardening Gatherings” quilt. That pattern is so striking.
I do love quilt alongs though I’m usually playing catch up. This quilt is beautiful and I intend to sew along with you. Thank you for the YouTube videos as well, those always help. Would love to win some of the gorgeous fabric. As another commenter said, lilacs are worth waiting for.
You couldn’t get a better teacher for this sew along…once you take a class with Val you are hooked…thank you!
Beautiful fabric line! You can’t go wrong starting a quilt with log cabin and star blocks.
I love QALs and I love this quilt! Can’t wait!
I’ve only participated in 1 quilt-a-long. I still work full time and it’s hard for me to keep up. I hope to be able to participate in more once I can retire!
My favorite flowers are peonies. The Garden Gatherings quilt is beautiful.
I have never done a quilt along. I worry that I will fall behind. The Garden Gatherings has such a cool look, this may have to be my first QAL attempt!
I love the colors!!! So spring like
I love the pattern too!
I love to do quilt alongside. I’ve done 3 quilt alongs and plan to join you and Val for this one.
The American Gatherings was the first major quilt-a-long that I followed AND finished! This next one is intriguing.
Love love the fabrics and the quilt b
What a lovely fabric line! I have done about 7 QALs and I really like them. I’m going to participate in this one too!
Now – I have to finish up a few UFOs 🙂
I do enjoy a quilt along; it keeps me on task. I have only done one quilt along but would LOVE to do more. And…I think this might just be the quilt!! Oh, and I love sunflowers. thanks and Merry Christmas
I love your quilt alongs! Something to look forward to and not overwhelming all at once.
Oh my. That is pretty and you know I like king size.
I absolutely love sunflowers. I have only done one quilt along but enjoyed it so much. Thank you
I participated in 3 QAL in 2020. The Garden Gatherings QAL is perfect for my new bed quilt. P.S. I love pansies and violas. As a child I knew them as Johnny Jump Ups.
My favorite flowers are daffodils
My favorite flowers are lilacs. I just love their fragrance. They remind me of my childhood.
This quilt is gorgeous! My favorite flower is the Sunflower. Sunflowers always make me happy.
I love red geraniums 😊
I have done your quilt along, so informative and fun. Fav flower is he simple white Daisy💕
I love wildflowers!
My favorite flower is a buttercup, It is my birthday month flower. And they don’t need much care, they just come back year after year and are beautiful.
I have done two sew alongs and hopefully this beautiful quilt will be my #3. Thank you!!
Favorite flower gerber daisy, it just makes me smile, and they come in such a variety of colors
QALs are my favorite addiction. I learn so much from the videos and tips from other quilters and I also love a deadline to keep up which happens half the time. Love the new fabric line and my favorite flower is iris.
I have followed a few of your QAL’s but have not actually done one yet. I am very interested in this one, though, mainly because of Val, who taught me to quilt about six years ago & changed my life forever. She is such an amazing teacher, quilt designer & friend. This quilt is even more gorgeous in person. ❤
I’ve only done a couple QAL’s and yes, for sure joining this one! And I love lilies too!!
Done 4 quilt alongs so far. Favorite flower Gerber daisy
I have done a few sew alongs, haven’t decided just yet on this one, ver tempting. My favorite flower is gerber daisies.
I love the idea of quilt alongs, but I always have trouble keeping up. I keep trying to do them and someday I will actually keep up 🙂 This quilt looks beautiful and I am planning to try to make this the one I keep up with!
I love Quilt Alongs! I’ve done 7 of them. My first was Sunflower(my favorite flower btw) Gatherings, then Twilight Garden and Moon Garden at the same time….. phew!!! I’ve done Thankful Life and most recently finished Everlasting from the wool boxes! I’m currently working on Dragonfly Dreams and can’t wait to see how it turns out!!!! I also did another Quilt Along with another designer, but I won’t mention any names lol:)
I tend to like mystery quilts instead of quilt alongs. No real reason. So excited for this fabric line. Nice to have some pretty colors to look forward too after the dull drums of winter.
I have no favorite flower. I love them all. This past year I did 4 large raised beds of all kinds of perennials and bulbs in memory of my mother who passed away last year. Wishing I would have thought of this project when she was alive as she was the one who instilled in me the love of flowers.
Beautiful fabric and quilt!
Love the fabrics and the quilt is beautiful!
Love Meet me in the Garden QAL. Can’t wait to get started next June. Along with Sunflower Gatherings, Live a Thankful Life, I have done 8 BOMs. This hobby brings me so much JOY! Thank you for all you do Lisa and team. 😊
I do 3-4 quilt alongs per year. My favorite flower is daisies.
So beautiful. My favorite flower is gerber daisies
I have done 4 SALs. Use them for building skills.
Sounds absolutely fabulous. Looking forward to starting.
I’ve never had the time to try a quilt a long, but this one is beautiful!
I love QAL’s. Since Covid I’ve done about 18 . What would we have done without Zoom? I love all the colors in your new QAL.
My favorite flower is the iris, followed by the rose and peony. Unfortunately won’t be doing quilt along, tho have done several lap size quilt alongs. New line looks beautiful, love all the light colored shirtings.
I like quilt alongside and have lost track of how many I have participated in. I joined your Americana quilt along this year and love the quilt. The top is sewn together and on the list for my long arm quilter in 2022. I love what I can see of this quilt but I don’t make anything larger than 72 inches wide so will follow to see if I can easily not put on so many rows on the side and still keep it all balanced with block designs and fabrics. I can usually find a way!!
I have done one quilt along. I’ve “watched” about 5 others. There always seems to be someone needing a quilt gift to take up my time. I’m REALLY interested in trying the Seedlings quilt. Maybe by spring I could do that for me. “If only….” My favorite flower is Sweet William because my William was the sweetest man on earth.
I try to fit in a quilt along, here and there. I have participated in at least 6 of them. They are fantastic to be able to get a large quilt top completed because otherwise I put it off and just make small quilts.
My favorite flower is a lilac. It reminds me of good times past and the aroma is delightful.
The QAL sounds like fun and I love the new lines coming out for it. My favorite flower is Hyacinths.
Wow, I’m in love with those fabrics! I love sew-alongs too. They are fun and keep me sewing!
I have started several but only finished one during Covid. Hard to pick my favorite flower as I love so many…….but I love gardenias as they smell so good and remind me of the dances during high school.
I’m just venturing into quilting thanks to one of the blocks in the Wool Box so I have not done a quilt along. My favorite flower is the lilac.
Love all the shirtings! Great colors. Looking forward to the quilt along.
A quilt along is great! Especially the fabrics. I love peonies!
Wow do I love that quilt! Just gorgeous! I’ve never done a quilt a long, but with a layout and fabric that pretty and the help from the designer on Zoom, I think I’m in!
You guys did great! The fabrics are beautiful- the pattern is great too! My favorite flower – Lilly of the Valley – a close second – lilacs. Take care!
I have done a couple of quilt-alongs, and this one is really tempting me. The fabrics are gorgeous!
Spring daffodils are a favorite.
I do love the idea of quiltalongs, but I have never been able to participate. As a newly retired teacher, I happen to start soon!
Your fabrics are beautiful and I would love to be part of this quilt along. So much can be
learned from quilt along instructors. I have completed tops from 5 quilt alongs, my latest was the Hodges for Heroes with you. You shared so much information and I learned so many techniques. I have a lot of old habits that I have trashed and replaced with your tips. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and time.
I’ve done several quilt-alongs. It’s so much fun to be part of a group all working on the same project. This quilt along is very tempting. I love the design and the fabrics are amazing…..
I love tht pattern. Promises to be a wonderful event. I have only done a few qals but they have always been fun!
I have only done a couple of quilt alongside. This one seems too intimidating for me. Lol. But, I would enjoy joining one again.
The fabrics are beautiful!
I have only done one quilt along, but I really enjoyed it! Looks like a beautiful, very interesting quilt!
These new collections look very beautiful and of course yummy to me!
I love the happy colors. I really loved your previous garden line. I made a Dear Jane quilt using a fat quarter bundle and pre cuts. Looking forward to the arrival, hopefully in the spring and not next fall! I like preorders so I don’t worry about missing something I really want. I am running out of space for my PG fat quarters however. I need to catch up before this comes in!
I have done a couple of quilt a longs, they are fun. Thinking about doing this one. Favorite flower is the rose.
Beautiful fabrics! I’ve participated in about 12 quilt alongs. My favorite flower is the pansy.
My favorite flowers are mums. And I love quilt all gs but I haven’t done very many. I’m looking forward to this one!!
I haven’t done a quilt along, although I would love to start one. My favorite flower is the Lily because they are so large they demand your attention to their beauty.
Happy Holidays! I have finished 3 sew along since Covid began. They have kept me sane.
Definitely a must have!!!
So glad I checked out the blog because the new BOM is just gorgeous and YouTube didn’t do it justice. My favorite flower is the hydrangea.
Love quilt alongs! Have all the blocks done from the last one, just have to put it together. I will definitely be doing this one!
I’ve participated in 3 quilt-a-longs and learn something new everytime! Love, love, love the Garden Gatherings line! Merry Christmas!
Loved today’s live, day 11 of the 12 Days of Christmas ! The fat quarter bundle reminded me of Christmas candy. I have been a faithful follower since Primitive Gatherings began in the early 2000’s so I have lost track of how many stitch alongs I have participated in but my house looks like All things Lisa Bongean, 😂. I love all flowers so it’s hard to pick just one but Peony’s smell good and fill a crock beautifully in the summertime. I really enjoyed how the halls of your retreat are adorned with Red and White quilts, they are my all time favorite!!! MERY CHRISTMAS 🎄 🤶
What a beautiful quilt! A must-do for sure! I have only done a couple of quilt-alongs, but this looks like one I must be a part of.
Hi ! I’ve only done “1” SAL, never a QAL. My favorite flower is Yellow climbing rose with a light spicy scent.
Absolutely LOVED the Hogs for Heroes QAL! I’m a newbie and I am thrilled I will be able to participate in this next adventure. Thank you Primitive Gatherings!
I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE quilt alongs. Love the instruction, love the community, and love the fabrics!
Ohhhh tgat quilt is beautiful! 😍
Looks fabulous! and Just the right size for me Hmmm guess I will have to join in!
My favorite flower is a daisy because it was my mom’s favorite.
I love quilt alongs, can’t even begin to guess how many I’ve done. My favorite flower is the Texas Bluebonnet. Nothing like driving through the hill country of Texas and seeing miles and miles of bluebonnets growing wild.
This new fabric line is such wonderful colors! I’m excited for the quilt a long!
I forgot to say I have done one SAL and love the motivation it gives me to complete. Also, favorite flower is carnation.
It’s going to be one fun QAL! I’m a zinnia lover….just so bright and cheerful.
Love the new fabric, already placed my order….Have done 3 or 4 stitch along truly enjoy them.
Favorite flower daisy
I love, love, this collection and already pre-ordered it. The QAL quilt is beautiful! I can’t wait to start it. I’ve only done 4 or 5 QAL but have learned so much from them. Thx for all you do!
I haven’t done a quilt along because I know I won’t be able to keep up. I’m not the person who signs up for a class and then comes to class with the quilt already done. Or even half done. Maybe not even fully cut out.
But my garden will give anyone’s a run for the money and my favorite flowers are purple, it seems. Why do I never use purple in my quilts (nor orange) and yet my lilacs, hydrangeas, lavender (obviously) and all manner of low growers are all purple? Lilacs may be the best, though, ohhh that smell! Heavenly!
Quit alongs are lots of fun and I usually finish the quilt on time. There is one exception in a bin downstairs.
That quilt is amazing, but I can look at the blocks and see it is very doable.I now need to finsih my UFOs to make way for this!
I only started quilting a year ago, and started watching the flag quilt along about half way through. I love the tutorials and the chance to ask questions while Lisa was presenting live. I will likely participate in the Garden Gatherings stitch along – what a beautiful quilt and fabric. Thank you for providing these opportunities!
I have sewn a few quilt-alongs and enjoyed them. I love this quilt and may have to sew along with this one. It’s just the kind of quilt that I love.
I love this quilt, and would love to win these fabrics! I love quilt alongside, though I tend to sign up for too many and then not finish! I imagine I will have to give in and do this one!
Jenny in Florida
I love the book and the sew along I ordered both. I love doing the sew alongs Thank you
Love precuts! That being said, I also love sew alongs and have participated in too many to count. Not all are finished quilts, but that’s ok …they will be some day…..
Wow! That quilt is stunning. QAL would be a lot of fun with this quilt.
I love, love, love this quilt! And I’m VERY excited about the fabrics!!! (Are these the ones we saw stacked in your studio during the Grand Opening tour?) I enjoy doing quilt alongs. My hint is to do a quilt along with another quilting friend and keep each other accountable to keep up and get it finished!! My friend Karla and I have done several in this way! Thank you Lisa for always giving us so many fun options to keep stitching something new and exciting!!!
I love quilt a longs, I try to do 2 to 3 a year. The quilt and colors are just beautiful, I might have to do this one. My favorite flowers are my Lilac bush and my Honeysuckle Vine, they both smell so good for so long.
I’ve done a couple of the wool quilt alongs and have enjoyed them. My favorite flower is a peony because they were my grandmas favorite and they smell so good too!
I am pretty excited about this see a long! I hope I can keep up! I love daffodils because they are one of the first signs of spring!9
Love quilt alongs !they keep me on track so I dont get too distracted by all the beautiful quilts to make. I try to do at least 2 a year. I will ne defimately participating!
I think the bundle would be a wonderful 50th birthday present for myself on Dec 30th!
I have participated in 4-5 sew alongs and I love the look of this quilt. My favorite flowers are yellow roses but if I had a choice, I would take an armload of everything imaginable in a riot of color! This quilt will certainly fulfill that choice. Looking forward it!
I have done a couple of quilt alongs and enjoy them. I am excited about this one and cannot wait.
Yes, I love quilt alongside. If you can’t meet in person, these are the best and I love learning new techniques. I have participated in at least five quilt along’s that I can remember off the top of my head!
Yes I love Quilt alongs even though I keep up mostly and then I still finish up late, but I do finish and I enjoy the journey. Haven’t decided about this one. Will have to learn a bit more.
I’ve never done a quilt along!
My favorite flower is Lily of the Valley – so small and delicate and pretty.
I e done about 10 quilt alongside but can’t do any more for a while
I need to finish kits that I have
There have been QALs that I’ve wished to do but have been hesitant to sign up afraid of meeting the monthly fees. So far, have always bought my project needs all at once. As far as a favorite flower I haven’t planted 1 I didn’t love. Some just require more care.
I have never done a Quilt along, but plan to do this one!
I’ve never done a quilt along!
Lily of the Valley – so small, dainty, and pretty.
This quilt is happy and full of color! My Favorite flower is Sunflowers because they make me Smile!
I have not done a QAL yet. But have done several BOMs and Mystery Quilts and love them.
I have quilted along 9 or so times. I’m trying to work on my ufos and not start anything new. I just purchased urban farmhouse gatherings book and fabric for a quilt so I’m not doing a very good job. 😊🙃
I love wildflowers!! 🌸
I love quilt alongs because it keeps me motivated to actually finish.
I have never done a QAL but this looks like a great one to try!
Beautiful quilt-have done quilt alongs. My favorite flowers are hibiscus. I can bring one-or two-in and put it in a vase in my kitchen window. You don’t need water in them –they last one day and are big and beautiful. I had 10 red blooms on one plant today!!
The quilt looks so amazing. 😍
Beautiful…sounds like fun!
I love quilt-alongs…makes me feel like I am quilting with friends! I think I see participating in this one next year as a must do!
Love the shirtings! I have done a few quilt alongs. Some I have finished and some are still in progress 🥴😂
I have done a few quilt a longs… it really helps me focus and meet new people.. even if it is online…it helps me get through moving to a new area until I make new friends. My favorite flower is the magnolia..mainly because I was brought up in the South and when my husband and I were married, the church ladies lined the shelves of the church in magnolia leaves. Whenever we have moved to a new house, my husband has always planted a magnolia tree or bush to remember that special day!
I do enjoy them and have done about 8.
I have only done one quilt along and really enjoyed it.
Garden Gatherings line is beautiful! Beautiful colors. I’ve done several mystery quilt alongs. These are fun if working on many blocks because only needs to make a few or so a month. Lilac is my favorite flower!
Beautiful fabrics and the QAL is gorgeous and I look forward to participating. My favorite flower is the daisy – friendship and sunshine. Thank you for the friendships and sunshine you bring to us.
QAL’s are sooo wonderful, especially during this trying time of life! I have participated in four so far.
I have done 7 quilt alongs. Still have 3 “in the works”. Slowing getting them done, slowly. LOL
Love this pattern and the fabrics. I like quilt alongs, I have done 2 and I’m looking forward to this one.
Beautiful quilt and fabrics. Sounds fun!
Looking forward to this quilt along. I’ve done several but never a medallion. Love the fabric and the design!!
I’ve never participated in a QAL. I like the idea and hope to join in one soon.
One of my favorite flowers is a dark red zonal geranium. Such vintage charm!
I love the fabric, I won’t be doing quilt along because I have too many other projects to start. However Love the quilt behind you!
Peonies are my favorite as they hold so many of my treasured memories. My grandparents grew them in their garden, and after they passed and their home was sold, I got a couple of the plants from their garden. I have moved them from house to house as we move.
Have never participated in a quilt along. This one looks interesting but I won’t be participating as I am preparing a move from our large family home to a smaller one-level empty nest/widow home.
Favorite flower is geranium. Have a couple of your kits with them but not yet started.
I love hydrangea. I have done wool appliqué hydrangea and it is hanging in my family room.
Peony is my favorite flower, oh they smell glorious! Also love QAL. It’ll be hard to top the one from this summer though. Looking forward to it.
Love these fabrics and the quilt! I’ve done 2 QALs… fun! Excited for this project!
I do love quilt alongs! I have done Moda Blockheads 1 and 2 and am looking forward to this one. I placed an order today for the fabric. Looks wonderful.
Love the colors in this line. Quilt is beautiful! I have never joined a sew along. I work full time and have always been afraid that I wouldn’t be able to keep up and would get discouraged. This looks like one I’d really enjoy!
I have finished one quilt along and have 2 more to do. Yes I will be joining this one. Cannot resist. My favorite flowerd are dahlias. They bloom all summer and so many colors.
I love quilt alongside and have probably done the most since pandemic started. I think I have done over 6.
Quilt Alongs not alongside LOL!
Lisa you are a real gem. You are so generous with all your give aways! Thank you
I love quilt alongs!!!!
This looks like a really fun quilt to do a quilt along with! I have done quilt alongs in the past but not lately! Sometimes I gather the clues and wait till I can do them when I have more time! The Garden Gatherings fabric is so pretty, will make a gorgeous quilt!!!
Thank you so much for the wonderful opportunity to win these glorious fabrics and participate in your quilt along, Lisa & Val!! As I am still new to quilting, I have only participated in one so far! I love so many flowers, but I think my favorites are Hollyhocks!! They are such an old fashioned flower and my Granddaughter’s name is Holly!!
The quilt and fabric line are beautiful. I am looking forward to the quilt along.
Yes, I love quilt alongs…they have kept me happy (and used up lots of treasures in my stash) during the past two years. I have finished three quilts, am working on the last block of a fourth, and have two more bookmarked online for the new year.
Looks like fun and Val is also a great teacher.
I have only done two Quilt Alongs but I feel those quilts turned out perfect because of the easy to follow instructions. Looking forward to the Meet Me In the Garden quilt because it just looks explosive!!
I love the quilt alongs. They are so much fun and I anxiously await the next one. My favorite flower is the sunflower because it’s so cheerful and makes me feel so happy.
