  1. I LOVE these! They are so cute and I’d love to hang them in my little sewing nook :).

  2. Haha I got so excited I forgot to answer! I show the world I’m happy with my quilts and other handmade things, especially when I’m making them for those I love. I think I’d like the first one, the “She found joy in her heart” one…although either would be great!

  3. The little things in life make me happy such as snuggles with my 4 yo granddaughter, sewing, watching a film on my Kindle while taking a bath, stodgy food in winter and reading craft blogs in bed. These quilts are beautiful and seeing these makes me happy!

  4. Carrie I love them both, but I think I would prefer girl #1. Thanks for a lovely giveaway.

  5. Oh I would have a hard time choosing, they look like each of my two girls! I love taking care of my family, that’s happy me.

  6. Oh nice! Love the dark haired girl because it matches my hair. I attempt to pay it forward, especially at Christmas time.

  7. I show the world I am happy by smiling! And it usually cheers other people up too! If that doesn’t work I force stuff I have made upon them haha. Your quilts are beautiful! I love the second quilt because she looks more like me and I haven’t been feeling too great lately and I had a big sit down and a think about that and realised that if I make a choice to be happier and fill my time with things that I enjoy then I will be happier. What I need really is within.
    Ps. I’m a new blogger but I am in on giveaway day! X

  8. I love them both but would pick the one on the left, simply because I’m more drawn to earth tones. I show the world I’m happy by being honest about how I work at it.

    This is such a generous offer. I love your quilts.

  9. I try to show the world I am happy by enjoying each moment and making an effort to be kind. I love the second one. They are both beautiful.

  10. Oh wow!! These are SO cute!! Thanks so much!

  11. i love the second one. i show it through my cooking, sewing, and my son.

  12. Christine Sherman says:

    These are gorgeous! I love the yellow one 🙂 I try to be kind to others, it’s the best way to spread happiness!

  13. These are incredible and I would be honoured to have either of them. The world knows I am happy if I am creating with cloth, thread, or food. The happier I am the more that gets done. I also wear make up on good days!

  14. Julia Glotova says:

    When I’m happy I’m smiling or laughing 🙂 And I love the first quilt!

  16. I sing when happy! I love both: green and yellow are my favorite colors…..How about yellow with black hair 🙂

  17. I dance when Im happy! The number one is my fav. But both of them are just adorable!

  19. When I am happy, I smile a lot, I walk lightly, I stitch a lot, do lots of chores without nugging!I love your quilts and my favourite is No 1 as she looks more like me!AriadnefromGreece!

  20. What gorgeous quilts! I could just imagine one of these hanging as inspiration in my little sewing room. I love the first one – but honestly, both are gorgeous!

  21. Teresa Knittingdancer says:

    Beautiful quilts. I like Happy Girl # 2. It reminds me of my sister. I am happy when I am knitting.

  22. These are beautiful! I suppose I do by smiling, or just by being still and at rest. 🙂

  23. I love the second one because of the saying, but they are both lovely! I try to share my happiness with smiles and kind words.

  24. I try to show the world I’m happy by sharing friendliness and positivity with the people I come in contact with.

    I love Happy Girl 1.

  25. Both are delightful! And I am joyful when working on a project :-). Thanks for the chance to win one of your beautiful quilts!

  26. I love to dress in bright colours to brighten the day! These quilts are divine.

  27. I show the world I’m happy by trying to make others happy by giving them my time, attention, and help. Sometimes it’s by sending a friend a little hand drawn cartoon to make them smile, and other times it’s just by sharing a cup of coffee and a chat with a total stranger.

    They are both just so beautiful, but if I had to choose, I’d like girl #1. Thank you for the chance to win 🙂

  32. I try to show the world I’m happy simply by smiling at people. You never know when something that small can lift someone’s spirits! Thanks for a truly lovely giveaway!

  33. I like to share my joy by teaching others how to ride bicycles. I’m fortunate that it’s also my job… the best job ever!!! I would so love the first quilt.

  34. I love them both too…and most especially ‘she found joy in her heart’. Joy is my word for this year…to inspire me! I smile a lot. And I have a happy blog! Thanks! You are VERY talented!

  35. Heather in VA says:

    I like to smile and say hello to as many people as I can. Joy is my word for this month. So with that I’d love to win the “joy” quilt but at the same time purple is my favorite color and the purple quilt would go perfectly with my room. They are both so beautiful. If I win, surprise me.

  36. I show the world I’m happy by the way I make my home cozy and welcoming

  37. I love both quilts it’s so hard to chose, but I’ll pick “she found joy in her heart”. As for how I show people I’m happy? Well today I was singing at work while I worked.

  38. I can’t believe you are giving these away!! They are wonderful. I love the “She found joy in her heart”. One way I show people I am happy is to smile with my eyes.

  39. I go to school. At 59 I am older than most of my professors but being with younger students who are so full of energy keeps me feeling energetic as well. I love both quilts but what she neede was within describes my journey this past year.

  40. I work in healthcare. I show the world I’m happy by being cheerful, helpful and kind to everyone I meet. I love the dark haired girl, she looks more like me.

  41. by creating, all of the time 🙂 Happy Girl 1 is my favorite, but both of them are SO exquisitely beautiful!!!

  42. Wow, what a generous give away! Both quilts are amazing. Happy Girl #1 is my fav of the two.

    How do I show the world I’m happy? I guess by smiling and not being a whiner!

  43. I try to show joy with a smile :). I would choose the second.

  44. Happiness, for me, comes from accepting yourself with love. I love the “within” quilt. Excellent work!

  45. Deserae Fiedler says:

    I would like the second quilt.
    I let people know I am happy by smiling!

  46. I am most happy when creating! I love your work and the gal on the left is my fave. This for the chance to win!

  47. I smile, do good things for people, share the happy. I laugh with my children and play with them. I look at nature, I make things that make me smile. I surprise family and friends with things they like. And I remember my mom, who was always able to find joy, no matter the pain. I love these quilts, if given a choice I would choose 1, She Found Joy in her Heart. Thank you!!!

  48. I paint, I’m more patient and creative. I spend time with the people who matter to me. I would pick #1 – love the text.
