    I picked Ellie Ann because it reminds me of the fabrics that my grandmothers had in their house when I was younger. Love those florals! They are so fresh and spring-like.

    Thanks for the chance to win!

    I voted for the batiks. I love the rich colors. The unique designs of each fabric give them texture without overpowering the main color of the fabric. Great fun.

    While both are beautiful collections, I love the old fashioned look of Ellie Ann. Good job with the design Eleanor Burns! I just bought a charm pack of Ellie Ann and can't wait to make a baby quilt.

    This was a very hard decision. I really like them both but ultimately picked Ellie Ann because of its versatility. It could be used for a feminine as well as masculine quilt.

    I voted for Ellie Ann. The colors are soft and feminine. The colors of the batiks are nice, but I don't like the fact that you could cut a patch from one part of a fabric and have the color be different from a patch cut from a different part of the same fabric.

    I don't usually go in for soft romantic florals, but Ellie Ann is a true exception to the rule. I already bought some and it sits on the top of the To Do pile. I look forward to working with it. Oh yeah and the melon color way is the best!
