  93. I would love a video by Edyta Sitar, especially to see her use the laser cuts to make a block. I would also love to have a template of the car used in her quilt shown at School House. Also love Fig Tree and Camille Roskelley, and Bunny Hill, and Vanessa and so many of them. So enjoying all the videos, tweets etc from Market. Thanks Fat Quarter Shop.

  422. I love Ann Sutton.
    Thank you for taking us along to the show I wish I could have been there, can't wait for the Downton Abby fabric!!

  431. Though she is not primarily a quilter, Kamari Meng of French General recreates the 19th century French design sensibility so beautifully.

  436. Ann Sutton of Bunny Hill Designs, I'm just getting back into embroidery after many years. I can use some pointers and a brush up on techniques. Toni Anne ;->

  447. Yes, a tutorial with Tula Pink would be great. Although the other suggestions make me want to change, I will stick with Tula. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

  448. Wow! I can;t think of anyone that I wouldn't want to see in a video. Let's start with Edyta Sitar, Lisa Bongean, Tula Pink, Lori Holt, Kate Spain…

  457. I'd like to see a video from Vanessa Christenson of V and Co. Her fabrics are beautiful and innovative, and I'd like some ideas for what to do with them.

  459. I would truly enjoy a lesson from Vanessa of V and Co. Thanks for considering our input.

  465. OMG I am the biggest Joanna Figueroa fan so Fig Tree would be at the top of my list but Ann Sutton is a very close second 🙂

  471. Oh, I know she already has one but I love (love) watching Anne Sutton from Bunny Hill when she teaches. And her fabric! Love it too.

  480. My favorites are Sue Daley and Ami Sims! Love your daily messages. Each day I get a little info or inspiration. Thanks.
    Bobbie

  485. I would love to see Edyta Sitar of Laundry Basket quilts do a demonstration – she has so many great techniques. Her quilts are stunning and I would love to add a few of her fabrics to my stash.

    needleware7@gmail.com

  489. Do I have to choose just one? No possible! Camille, Bonnie, Joanna (Fig Tree), Vanessa, Kate Spain. . .I could go on and on! I love your YouTube videos!

  498. I just loved thse fabric flowers made with Le Bouquet Francais by French General in the Moda booth.

    I would love to see how to make these!

    Thanks

  499. Since I don't know if you want a choice from the ones listed on your blog (I choose Tula Pink….) or ANYONE (I also love Lucie Summers), I will just put them both. Both talented ladies.

  501. I would like to see a video tutorial by Vanessa from V & Co. as her blog is so funny & I think that would come through on her video.

  503. Tough choice….right now, I'm obsessed with appliqué quilts and I recently bought the 'Rain check' pattern from Thimble Blossoms. So I would love to see something from Camille Roskelly.

  507. Loved Tula Pink's stand. So many amazing stands though. One day I am coming to America for Quilt Market…. Might need another suit case by then 🙂

  520. I would love a video of Camille from Bonnie and Camille. I have loved all their designs.

  521. How to pick? I'd like to see either a demonstration of French General's roses, or the one of Anne Sutton–love everything she does. There are lots more I love, but I'll limit myself to two!

  528. I would have to say with Sandy of American Jane. I love her fabrics and projects. She either does French fabrics or vintage looking schools fabrics always in the red, blue, yellow and green colorways.

  532. All are wonderful, especially Me & My Sister Hubba Hubba, I love their fabric, have used it may times. I am a big fan of Nancy Halverson and Benartex, I have her collection from every Christmas season

  550. Your quilt market coverage is the best. I would love Lisa and Primitive Gatherings- working with Wool.

  555. Oh that's easy! I love to meet Anne Sutton and she can demonstrate her appliqué techniques. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her new red and white line and I would love to win the bundle you picked up!!!

  568. I love Downton Abbey and I have found a pattern I would love to make with the fabric line. PLEASE!
    PLEASE! PLEASE? Thanks for sharing your fun weekend with us. It looks like you had a BLAST!!!

  578. It seems I always have a new all time favorite, but I think that French General is definitely at the top of my list right now, however, from the your picture, Downton Abbey might be up there.

  583. I would love to see a tutorial from Camille of Bonnie & Camille. Or Vanessa of V & Co. (whose new line I just looooove). Thanks!
