My favourite would have to be the quilt I first blogged about, my version of Kaffe Fassetts Wheel of Fortune Quilt. I had so much fun making this one. It was paper pieced which was mainly done at night in front of the telly!
Then I quilted it in free motion quilting on my domestic sewing machine. I had fun changing the threads to match the colour of the block I was quilting. I've mainly used stipple, clamshell, circles and straight line stitching. This quilt gave me a lot of satisfaction to make.
On the back I used Kaffe's mosaic fabric. I could look at that design for days, there is so much gorgeous detail.
As quilters, we put a lot of effort into each quilt we make, but some quilts do become more of a favourite than others. This one is mine....do you have a favourite?

What a lovely quilt, it smiles.I have always loved those stars, no matter what fabric the quilter chooses they always seem to sparkle
That is gorgeous, well done!
You know I love anything Kaffe. And Heather Purcell (owner of Superior Threads) would be so proud of you for swithching threads to match the colors on the top of your quilt. She teaches that concept in classes, and said it's something quilt judges look for now.
Beautiful! And the backing fabric is indeed fantastic! Quilts aren't like children that are loved equally. In fact, some of mine, I don't like so much anymore. ;-)
Love the backing fabric and the piecing is fantastic.
