I would love to win the mushroom fabric. I really love getting a Christmas tree. I just love the smell! One year we went up in the mountains to get our tree and that was wonderful...I would love to do it again.
ReplyDeleteCute, I'd love the apron panel. Favorite tradition... chocolate milk in the stockings each year.
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to make myself an apron forEVER - that panel would give me no excuses. My favorite holiday tradition is Memorial Day because we have no traditions or family obligations that day and can just relax! Though I love the fam as well. :)
ReplyDeleteMy fav holiday is Halloween I love taking my girls out trick or treating! I love the shroom fabric!
ReplyDeleteI love the flannel fabric. My favorite Christmas tradition is making gingerbread houses. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great giveaway. I would love to win the apron, I recently decided that I need to make myself aprons for all the seasons.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tradition. For Christmas, it's putting up the Christmas tree. I love going out in the cold, picking out a tree, then coming home and decorating it. It's not christmas in my house until there is a tree.
favorite christmas tradition- Watching White Christmas with my brother on Thanksgiving! It is the official kick off of the Christmas Season for the two of us, and we do a corny bro/sis reinactment of Bing Crosby & Danny Kaye singing "sisters sisters"! and onto prize fun- i can totally see a warm winter scarf being sewn out of that fuzzy flannel fabric! nice!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tradition, although it's only 3 years old, is the Advent activities that the family does each evening.
ReplyDeleteI REALLY like that mushroom fabric!
Either would be a great prize for me.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite holiday tradition is filling the stockings at our house on Christmas Eve or sometimes on Christmas morning. (Thankfully our daughter has never been an early riser - I have to wake her up on Christmas morning because I am so anxious for her to check out her stocking.)
Aww, I just love that mushroom flannel. My favorite part of the holidays is giving presents. I'm a natural schemer, so I spend the entire year pondering what to get for my friends, sometimes I'll buy something six months in advance. It's really great to be able to finally give the present!
ReplyDeleteI love the holidays to be with Family and I like to make presents.

I like the apron,I don't have one.
I love everything about Christmas...the family get together's, the caroling, the Christmas tree, the baking of Christmas goodies, all of it!! And if I win I love the Mushroom fabric!
ReplyDeletemmmm....thanksgiving food....best part of the season! i love the mushroom flannel!
ReplyDeleteWow, I love both prizes but I am wanting flannel PJ pants for myself so the flannel is #1 for me! One of our traditions is to go to a movie on Christmas day! We love movies and it is a great way to get out of the house. (You know, family is great, but when you need some time off from being "on" around the fams, a movie theater is nice and quiet and dark!
ReplyDeleteMushroom fabric, please! :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tradition is all the board and card games with my crazy competitive family when we are all together. And I'd love the flannel - I'm making a scrappy flannel quilt right now, and have stalled out because I need more variety.
ReplyDeleteI love the mushroom fabric!
ReplyDeletelove those mushrooms!!
ReplyDeletefave trad--picking up the first qt of egg nog on the way home from picking up our tree. pour, spike, decorate. holiday bliss.
The mushroom fabric is the best!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite holiday season is Halloween. I love going to pumpkin patches, haunted houses, watching scary movies and drinking apple cider. Oh, how I miss celebrating Fall in a place with seasons.
either one is great-thanks for the chance to win! as a former salemite, thanks for your blog! my favorite tradition is watching the kids, now 18, 19 and 21 (and our 17-year-old exchange student) bound down the stairs to the advent calendar every morning to see what little goodies are theirs for the day-i keep thinking that they will grow out of it ;)
ReplyDeleteI love the mushroom fabric! I just made some polymer clay mushrooms to go in mini terrariums with moss for my sister in laws...it's cuter though!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tradition....well...does eating boatloads of chocolate count? because that's pretty much all I do!

ReplyDeleteI'm up for the flannel mushrooms! I love decorating for fall...I love the colors everywhere and a nice wood fire going...pumpkins on the porch and cattails in the milk keg. Christmas fun is making our traditional cookies and having fam/friends over to decorate them each year.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Christmas tradition is getting together with my Husband's family and having our annual gift exchange. We all bring a woman's gift or man's gift and we play the game of taking your gift or taking someone else's gift. It is so funny and can get pretty competitive. The most coveted gifts are the original paintings by my Brother-in-law Dan Cochran. There is much laughing and loving during these get-togethers.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway. I love both prizes so either would be good to me. I think the thing I have loved the most with Sew Mama Sew givaway days are all the wonderful blogs I have found. I just can't look at them all, but I'm trying.
My favorite tradition is making sugar cookies Christmas Eve with the kids, then driving around and looking at Christmas lights. I really like the flannel fabric, I'm thinking p.j.'s.

My favorite holiday tradition is celebrating St. Nicholas Day. We don't know that many people who celebrate it (around us) so it feels like a fun little family secret.
ReplyDeleteI'd love the mushroom fabric. Very cute.
I LOVE that mushroom fabric so much.
ReplyDeleteI bake gingerbread women and mean with a treasured family recipe at Christmas time and give them out to all my pals.
Our favorite tradition is going to Chili's for dinner after XMAS Eve's mass. I can't decide..hmmmm...I've yet to make an apron

My favorite thing to do at Christmas is memories I have of my dad reading Twas the Night Before Christmas to us every year. He still does it! I would love either prize!
ReplyDeleteReading the story of Jesus's birth on Christmas day, my favorite tradition. I would love either fabric. Both are yummy!
ReplyDeleteI would prefer the flannel fabric.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite holiday tradition is that every Christmas Eve we go to the Dollar Store with my husband's family. His Dad gives us enough money to buy a $1 present for everyone. We sneak around the store dodging each other and picking out gifts and then go home and exchange them. Some end up being gag gifts, some end up being useful, but it's always tons of fun and we have great pictures of this tradition.
My favorite holiday tradition is simply being with family, eating good food and playing games. I love the mushroom flannel!
ReplyDeleteLove the Apron...Now that we have a new grandson we will be starting new traditions!! But my favs were always decorating the tree, opening that one present on Christmas eve, and on Christmas morning the kids rushing to get their stockings and jumping in bed with us as we read from Luke about the real reason for Christmas!Thanks for the give-away ~
ReplyDeleteOh I would take both! My favorite tradition in the Christmas eve service with candel light at the church

Oh, I love the mushroom fabric. I would probably make some PJ pants from it.
ReplyDeleteI would love the mushroom fabric. I probably make pjs from it. My favorite Christmas tradition is everyone making one handmade item for each member of the family. It is fun to see what the kids will come up with.
ReplyDeleteI am loving that mushroom fabric. Super cute!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Thanksgiving tradition is that my family always just spends Thanksgiving Day making cookies. When I was little, my dad used to go to my grandparents to butcher hogs on Thanksgiving so my mom started making peanut butter blossoms with me when I was about one. I got to unwrap the kisses. Now our children get to do the kiss unwrapping! I love Thanksgiving. *We don't eat turkey either! None of us like turkey, much to the dismay of my husband:)

I think my favorite tradition started tonight when my lil girl got to help decorate for the very first time! I got out the hymnal to practice for the big day(normally I sound like a dying cow:) and then she took her turn. So cute turning the page to find the right song, holding it in her hands, staring at the tree, and singing like no tomorrow. (she's not quite 3) I would have to say that I would love to have BOTH prizes!
ReplyDeleteFavorite tradition: baking as many cookies as humanly possible! I would love the mushroom fabric...thanks!
ReplyDeleteOh, that mushroom fabric is too cute!
ReplyDeleteOur favorite Christmas tradition is going to the tree farm to cut down our tree.
Thanks for visiting my giveaway, as well. :)
Oh, the mushrooms! LOVELY!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tradition is gathering all the things or memroies of the past year, remembering them and being thankful for them. It's a great thing to do, and makes me realize and remember how luck I am.
I think my favorite tradition is getting together with my family on christmas eve at my great aunt's house. We eat, open presents and spend time with each other. I think this is the only time we are all together and we all have so much fun!
ReplyDeleteI think I would prefer the fabric! It is so cute!
Thanks for the great giveaway!
I would love to win the mushroom fabric! Halloween is so big at my house it's crowding the Christmas stuff right out of the attic!
ReplyDeleteFor more than fifty...yes, 50!...years we've read Luke 2 every Christmas Eve. It's a tradition begun by my mother and one I've continued as an adult.
ReplyDeleteThe flannel is fabulous, would make a lovely addition to a child's quilt.
Thanks for the opportunity.
I like almost any holiday, but new year's is a favorite - I love the festivity of staying up to watch the ball drop, and especially starting the year with a kiss!
ReplyDeleteI would prefer the flannel, but would take the apron panel too! Thanks for the giveaway!
I love when our family acts out the Nativity on Christmas Eve.
ReplyDeleteI would love to win the flannel.
My favorite Christmas tradition is getting a tree on my husband's birthday (Dec. 10). It's a tradition his mom started when he was a kid, and he looks forward to it every year. I think it's really sweet. :) I love the mushroom print flannel, it's just darling! So many possibilities. Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteThe flannel is my choice too! Cookie Day is becoming one of my favorite Christmas things now that my grand daughter is old enough to REALLY help... she's 7 now. She joined, last Christmas, the "women" in our family making all of our holiday favorites.
ReplyDeleteI love the flannel that's my first choice! My fav christmas tradition (I have a few) is eating way to many satsuma mandarin oranges, they are so yummy and christmas isn't complete without them.
ReplyDeletehttp://crissybell.blogspot.com
My fave tradition is decorating our tree with our sentimental ornaments... My first choice is the flannel, love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the chance!!!
Great blog and thanks for the giveaway. My favorite tradition is hiding the glass pickle on the Christmas Tree. I ran on to the glass pickle story and ornament at a local store in AStoria OR. We only have one child so I guess it probably isn't as fun as if you have a few but we still enjoy watching Alex look for the pickle. I would love to have the apron panel, my friend collects aprons and I would love to make it for her for Christmas. The flanel is great too. If I am lucky enough to win, you can decide. koletzke@centurytel.net
ReplyDeleteOh, that mushroom fabric is so sweet! My favorite tradition comes at Easter time. Simply taking a picture of my daughter dressed in her Easter best in front of our tulips. Not particularly exciting or unique, but my mom used to take pictures of my sisters and me in front of her tulips, so I'm carrying on the tradition. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance! I like the mushroom flannel please.
ReplyDeleteFavorite old tradition - hubby and I go and cut a tree for our home the day after thanksgiving. A new tradition - we have a new daughter (one month old!) this year and we (well, I) decided to get a small live tree and the tree will grow with her. Each year, I'll make a handmade ornament for her so when she finally grows up and out of the house, she can take the tree with all different handmade ornaments with her to her new family.
I love both! My favorite tradition would be buying a new Christmas ornament. My aunt started that when I was born. And I have continued this into my adult life. Finding the perfect ornament to remind me of that year. :)
