Welcome to the QuiltAlbum Blog Hop! Thank you Pat Sloan for inviting me to participate in this event.
What is QuiltAlbum ? It is an easy software that helps you to keep a quilting journal- a database that keeps all the important information about your quilts in one place and makes it simple to print it out for different purposes.
You have spent many hours creating your quilts – this program creates a lasting and complete record of your work - for yourself or for your descendants!
For every quilt you can store as many pictures and information as you want. And you can print out nicely those photos and information – as pages that you can bind into a physical album.
Here are a few of my pages:
You can print a complete summary of everything stored in your QuiltAlbum, as an index for your printed album.
You can also print out a cover for your album.
You can print greeting cards - in many styles-all using your favorite quilt photos.
and quilt labels.
And here are a few tips:
- Use your best photos; I did not have time to search on my computer for good old photos and I saved what I wanted from my blog. If you write on a blog you too can do this if you are in a hurry !
- I did not have time to add details for my older projects; instead, for every project, I added the month and year I wrote about it on my blog so I can easily find it if I need more information!
- Use for printing a nice cardboard.
I am not a very organized person. It would take me forever to find on my computer pictures of the quilts I made 6, 8 or 10 years ago.
It would have been great to have QuiltAlbum since I started quilting and see, in one place, all the quilts I have made over the years.
Click here to learn more about Quilt Album. It is not just a fun and easy to use program, it's useful.
Now, Pat wanted to share some other fun things about me with you.
1. What one item do you really want to add to your studio ?
I would like a tread rack, like this one!
2. What color would you paint your living room if you had to do it right now
Living room or any other room - GREEN!
3. What is the last piece of fabric you bought
4. Your favorite candy to find in your Easter Basket
-----------------------------------------------

I would like to win this little program.
Your friend Erika from Austria, where the "Mozartkugeln"came from.
I do love organizing, so think it would be so useful to organize!
I've done so many quilts in past years, and some of them I give as a gift. I have photos about some quilts, and havent about others :O( I Think I must be more organized! Thanks for the good idea!
Most things I make are gaving away. So I make allways foto's of them. May be this is a good way of organising it.greetings from Liesbeth
I'd looove a licence of this software! I hate browsing through folders and sub-folders and photos and try to remember "what was this again?" every time! And when I'm looking for something I did and cannot find... a general index with pictures would be great to look over all and say "yes, this is the one I'm looking for!" in just seconds instead of hours...
And I guess it can be used for other photos/info also, since I don't only make quilts, but I toy arround with other stuff as well :).
Thank you for giving us the opportunity!
Wow!!! It seems to be a very interesting software...;)
Thank you!
Would really help me organize my quilting
This software would make documenting the progress of the birthing of a quilt so easy!! Thanks for the giveaway and for such a wonderful post!
Fingers crossed!
I would love, love, love to be able to use photos of my quilts to make personal stationery! I, too, would love to have a thread rack someday.
This is the first time I've heard of this software - it sounds great. I'm all in for more organization. Thanks
http://averagequilter.blogspot.com/
Wow - sounds great! Please count me in!
This seems like a great software.
I have been a quilter for years and take pictures to document but never seem to get it scrapbooked. I am trying also to create a portfolio to show to galleries and for submissions to shows. This would be a great help!
Love it! Hoping to win a copy. Software people can design anything. Love your picture of the purses. They look like a flower. What a way to keep track of items.
I am still thinking about those candies...HA!!
Thanks for this giveaway and for learning just a little more about you.
I think you sold me on QuiltAlbum.
You make it sound so easy.
Thanks
Hi Greta: I like the Quilt Album, looks cool. Would love to win it.
This looks like such a fabulous program. Like you I can never find the photos of quilts I made although having a Flickr account has helped. Thanks for sharing the features with us.
Software looks cool - very useful and user friendly.
Hi! This software looks amazing and would help alot with organizing. Would love a chance at winning it! Thanks!:)
I would love this software. Thanks for the opportunity to win!=)

Want to win!

Sounds like a great program to have, thanks for the giveaway!
You make a very good saleswoman for this software! Thanks for sharing it with us.
I've been reading about this quilt program, Geta, and it's something I can use, for sure!
I have a friend who is a quilter that is living in Bulgaria now. I love the pictures of your quilts. Please enter me for the software. I really need to keep track of my quilts and other craft projects. This sounds like a fun way to do that. PS: I have 3 small thread holders. They are great.
Hi Geta, This is just the software that I have been waiting for to start documenting my quilts. It would be lovely to win a copy of it. I'm one of your followers and I love your blog and your quilts.
I would love to try this software. I lost many pics of quilts I made years ago when my old computer died. With something like this I could always have a backup disk.
Oh, to finally be able to keep track of my quilts and all the information pertaining to them! What a wonderful idea. I'd love to win this software....
I would love to win this software so that I could keep track of all my quilting projects. I need some help with staying organized. Pick me!!
Hi Geta,
My name is Gita and I'm a quilter also. This new program seems like it would be very useful.
Gita
I'd love to win this program. I've been keeping photo albums of all of my quilts since day one, but this looks so much easier and more comprehensive. Great idea!
Well, this is an incredibly beautiful, bright blog. I am taking your 'button' for my blog. Wow!
Hi Geta! OMG...your chosen color for your living room is so close to the color I have chosen for mine!! I, too, need to be more organized with my quilts, and the information regarding them!

Thanks for hosting this giveaway. I would love to win this software! Love your blog!!
This program would be so much fun to have. I try to remember to take a photo of my projects, but I forget sometimes and then the quilt is gone.
Thanks for participating in this blog hop.
This would be a great program to own! I would love to have everything organized like this. Such a handy tool. Thanks for the give-away!
Geta tus telas son muy bonitas, pero yo ayer me volví loca y compré 5 telas azules diferentes 2amarillas y verde y 3 beis....se me acabó el dinero, sino seguría comprando.
Thanks for all of the information on the software...it looks like such fun...would love to win it.
Love that living room you posted. The Quilt Album software looks amazing!
You actually mentioned one of the reasons I'm hoping to get this software very soon. I'm just now starting to do quilting although I have done a few baby quilts, but I will be able to put my creations into the software from the very beginning. I love the features I've read about in this software too. They have really thought of a lot of features and added them in which is great. Being able to print a business card showing off your own quilts is awesome.
The software looks phenomenal....organization that doesn't take up space. Perfect!
Enjoy your hexies.

I would love to win this in order to record my quilts in a beautiful fashion.
I really like the shade of green that you chose. Green is my DS's favorite color so I'm always looking for ways to use green without it being like St. Patty's Day.
What kind of candies are those? YUM
Geta, it still amazes me how easily we can connect to quilters all over the world. I'll never lose that feeling of awe! Its a privilege to meet you, and many thanks for participating in this blog hop.

This program looks like fun and organization in one easy step. I LOVE it!!
Great blog! This is my first "blog hop" and I'm enjoying all the fun!

This is an awesome give away! Thanks so much for giving me a chance to win!
Geta,
How incredibly thoughtful of you! It sounds like a very useful software - and one that I could also use for keeping things organized for teaching, as well as personal reasons. I also enjoy being able to offer my students an opprtunity to see what else is out there and what they might find useful. Thank you for the opportunity to win this - and to let us know about it. Many blessings,
Sandy
Geta,
I forgot to tell you - we have the same passion for chocolate and Martzipan! Wow - do I miss that particular brand, as it is not available here in the USA! I did find a small shop that carries it around Christmas, but if I am not fast enough, it is all gone! I also miss the Weinbrandtbonnen.
Blessings,
Sandy

Paul
Geta, I love your work, you are so very talented and I have learned so much from you. Thanks for the encouragement, excitement, and good vibes! It keeps me motivated. I'd, of course, love to win the Quilt Album too. I see you've gotten loads of comments. Can't wait to see who wins. Liz

I am happy to read you would paint your living room green! I recently painted the dining area of my living room "asparagus," a lovely rich green by Behr paints at Home Depot.
Hi Geta,
Your work inspires me. I have taken photos of most of the quilts I have made and those are stored on the computer, but software like this would allow me to know the hows, whens, etc., to any quilt I make. I would love to have a copy.
Keep up the wonderful work!
It looks so easy !
Many thanks for giving me a chance to win..
Greetings from England
j an @ hood net .co. uk
I am truly disorganized when it comes to documenting my quilts. forget to take pictures, etc. I would so much enjoy having this software to help me keep better records of my quilts.
It would be great to win the quilt album!
I would document my "Grandmothers Log Cabin". My paternal grandmother pieced the log cabin top (by hand) and my maternal grandmother quilted it years later, by hand. I love it and use it carefully!
What wonderful software. Thanks for the opportunity to win your giveaway.
Thank you for the giveaway..and your free quilting pattern...love your work...
Wow what a great idea! Everything in one place and you can share! I would really like to play with this software. You have a great blog. I love to see what other people are doing in other parts of the world. Pam
I have a friend who also recommended this software. I'd certainly love to win it! I've taken photos of all my quilts, but alas, I haven't documented details. This would be a fabulous way to leave a legacy in addition to the quilts. Thanks for having the give-away. Pick me pick me Karen O in TX
Looks like great software and would be great to keep track of all the quilts I make and to go back and document all the ones I have made since 1981 when I first started quilting. I think I still have photos of all of them somewhere.
Love your blog! And this software looks like it would be a great tool - if I don't win it, I'm buying it!
This software looks like a great way to keep track of all my projects, there have been many since 1991 when I started my quilting journey.
good program good day
Thanks for all the info and wonderful projects you did for Quilt Album. I'm new to your blog and can't wait to see more!
I've been trying to do what the software does, but manually.
Oh yes this software looks VERY useful. wanting to keep track of my projects is why I stated my blog....sort of a journal of my quilt journey.
I am very interested in all the extra things this does as well...we quilters are a lucky bunch to have access to so many wonderful products
I really love the idea of that software - I've tried to keep track of my quilts by hand - and have not been too sucessful. This would really help.
After 26 years of living in Hawaii, we will be moving to WA in 3 weeks. I haven't had a 'sewing room' here during the 7 years I have been quilting, but finally will have one there. I look forward to having space and being organized. I would love this program to help me in my new environment. Aloha.
I love anything that will get me and keep me organized. Slowly but surely, I will pare down on stuff I don't use so I can find the things I do in a timely manner. I am loveing the thought of the Quilt Album. Right now, I hunt through 3 computers and a number of SD cards to sometimes locate what I want. It would even netter to win it.
By the way, my living room is green and its great.
This software would sure be more convenient than my current method. Thank you for the opportunity to win it, as well as make us aware of it.
Maybe my quilt pictures would be more organized, somedays I have a hard time finding the pictures I need.
Thanks
Kalynn
Wow - this is so great. To make a book like this is so great :-)
Wish you a great week end.
I enjoyed reading about all the different ways to use the quilt album. Please enter my name for your drawing.
Reading about the Quilt Album was really interesting. I didn't know there was something like this out there. I would love to win one of these!
Love your blog too, by the way.
Hugs,
Trish (newlapp@pa.net)
Of course I'm ready!!!
This software sounds interesting, I wouln't mind having it.
I love your blog

The QuiltAlbum program sounds great. I would love to win it!
Thanks Geta for a chance to win a Quilt Album. I like your style from what I see on your blog. Will definitely be back.
lOOKS like something we all could use. I have 2 of your bags and LOVE them. Thanks for the give-a-way.
I love your photos. The printing options for this software make it very appealing to me. The simplicity of it too! Thanks for being part of the hop - and for the chance.
I would love to win this software giveaway. I have tried two other techniques to log and catalogue all my quilts and they all seem to not be "just quite right" This looks awesome. Your blog is wonderful to read and very inspiring!
Thanks Deb Brandt
You have a lovely blog. Love your quilting work in the header.
This looks so wonderful...I don't think any of us document our quilts enough. Thanks for the chance to win.
After 30 years of quilting I have only now begun to take pictures of my quilts. Your gift would be a perfect way of getting organize and making it a habit to take pictures of all my quilts. I have many but I only wish I had pictures of all of them. In my excitment of giving a gift of my quilt I forget the picture taking.
If I am the one who wins I will be thrilled but if not your gift will make another deserving quilter very happy. Thank you, Grete, for
being so generous and sharing your talents.
What a great software idea! Thanks for the giveaway!
I am new to quilting so it fits right in with getting started. I especially like the thumbnail index & being able to print labels & business cards with the Quilt Album software. I hope to win this software. B J
WOW! Someone thought of a great program that makes it easier for those of us busy quilting to just add the information we want.
Thanks for the chance to win!
I would love to get organized with Quilt Album!!!
Quilt Album looks great. I haven't seen it before. What a great way to record your quilts. Thanks for the chance to win a copy.
Oh, what a wonderful Birthday Gift that would be. I will be 71 on April 6th. It's harder to remember things like I used to and this album would be a great help to me. This would be great way to organized and record my quilts as well as the ones my Mama quilted. Mama died 2 years ago and her birthday was March 31. She wold have been 90 year of age. Thanks for allowing be to enter this giveaway to try to win a copy.
Thank you for introducing me to the QuiltAlbum software. I took the time to view the website and listen to the interview on the Pat Sloan radio broadcast. This is definitely something I would enjoy having and knowing that you endorse this product meant that this is a worthwhile product. I would like to win this software:)
I'd love to win this great software. Thanks for the chance!
I am new to quilting and would love to be able to start this program with my new adventures into quilting. It would be so nice to see a archival history of where I started and what I can grow to. I just love all your beautiful work.
Great way to organize pictures, specially when the quilts were given away!
thanks for the opportunity and for the inspiration you provide us.
Andrea
Love your site and the blog hop.
I LOVE your work! Thank you for the chance!
I would love to have the QuiltAlbum software! I'm not very organized, and this just might help me keep track of things.
Hi Geta,
Thanks for the chance to win this software. I have never even heard of it before getting your email! I wish it would have been around when I first starting quilting too. But I guess it's never too late to get organized!
Love your shadow trapunto. The computer album program sounds very interesting. As a new retiree and now a more active quilterf, I would appreciate the opportunity to organize this section of my life.
What a wonderful giveaway. I love things like this. Had a great time visiting your blog today too. Thank you.
What a great giveaway! Thanks for the chance to win.
This program sounds very useful. I can't wait to get started. Well...I guess I'll have to wait until I win!
