My favorite season is spring. There can still be snow (which I love) but there is also green things and flowers starting to pop out (which I also love). I dislike really cold weather and I dislike really hot weather so spring is perfect. :D
Deborah, these are lovely! My favorite season is fall, and I'm so excited that it's just around the corner.
Tenho certeza que o vencedor terá dúvidas em escolher o mais bonito .Obrigada.Estou no meu preferido INVERNO aqui no Brasil,eu amo, temperatura em torno de 27 é ótimo.tiacarminhapezzuto@gmail.com
I love fall. Thanks for the give away chance. Back to school rocks!
Beautiful fabric choices! Fall is probably my favorite season. It starts to get cooler, a little rainier, and everything greens up again around here. I also live really close to the beaches, so fall is the perfect time to go enjoy some time by the water without the crowds!
I like all the seasons but my favourite is late spring when the fresh zingy colours are still there and a few of the really vibrant summer flowers are open. It is the best of both worlds for me, I love my garden and use it as inspiration for my sewing. Pam
I do like Fall and Spring. I don't like Summer or Winter because the temps are extreme in one direction or another.
my favorite season is fall, though living in hawaii this year, i'll definitely miss it!
My favorite season- I like them all- I know that is a bit of a cop out but I like each one for the different things that they bring- I love spring for the signs of new life, winter for the holiday season, fall for the harvest and the school beginnings and summer for all the fresh produce , beautiful flowers and the relaxed pace after a busy school year.
Thanks for the chance to win such lovely fabrics. The layer cake is particularly pretty.
Regards from Western Canada,
Anna
My favourite season, hard to say, but I really love spring when after the cold and grey everything starts to awake new. Thanks so much for the give away!
there is something nice to be said about all of them, but I would say winter is the best all in all
Thanks for the give away
I like all of the seasons except for Winter as I find all those long dark days and nights quite depressing. Spring is beautiful with the lovely blossoms, Summer for its long light days and, hopefully sunny days for eating outdoors(not this year in the UK though!) and Autumn for all its lovely colours.

Hi Deborah, it's really hot and humid where I live but when we do go for holidays overseas, we usually go during spring time.
Thanks for the give away!
I'm from Adelaide, Australia and it gets sooo hot in the summer! So my favourite season is winter here as I love rainy weather. We don't get a lot of rain here so when we do I love it!
Warm sunny days on the beach in Autumn. Its too hot in summer. I'm already a follower.Thank you for the lovely giveaway!
Hi, Deborah! Since I´m from Sweden and we don´t come near your summer temperatures I have to say that I love summer in Sweden. All seasons have it´s own beauty of course, but we really are in need of the light and sun during the summer.
Thank you for a wonderful give away!
I love Spring! I'm not a fan of the heat although we've had hardly any of it in the UK this year! I already follow you!
Thanks for a fabulous giveaway - I'm a big DS fan!!
I really enjoy Spring - coming out of a cool winter it is so lovely to be warm again, but not as hot and humid as our summers here in Australia!
I love the fall/autumn - the crisp air with a hint of composting leaves, the changing temperatures, the darker nights (ok - those aren't great) - and the thought of Christmas someing up - YAY! Super giveaway :)
Ooh lovely fabrics Deborah. I love autumn, the beautiful reds and oranges and golds of changing leaves, being able to snuggle up under warm blankets and wear beautiful scarves!
Victoria xx
I love summer - hate hate hate rain!
Bet you can't guess which I'd choose - thanks for the chance xxx
My favourite season is autumn! Sunny days and cool nights! Perfect!
Hello! I'm a brand new follower (love your blog). I'm "over the pond" in Australia and I love Autumn as our Summer is so stinking hot that the first hint of cooler weather is always so welcome. Lovely fabrics in your give-a-way!
Hmm, that depends where I am! I love summer in Provence, and autumn in the UK and winter in South Africa and spring in Australia :oD
I don't have a favourite season, I like each one for being different, spring for the fresh greens, summer for the warmth and bounty, fall for being so culourful and winter for its crisp freshness. I couldn't live without the changing of the seasons. :-)
I am already a follower. My favorite season is spring. It is so nice when winter is gone and the flowers begin to bloom again. I am always anxious to get some pots planted. Thanks for the chance to win fabric.
Been a follower via GFC for awhile. Thanks for the chance to win.
I'm already a follower. :) What a great giveaway!
My favorite season is definitely autumn. I miss being in the US for it, but am so glad to see the leaves changing here in Ireland already.
I'm a follower. I love, love, love fall. Did I say I love fall? The temps and colors are great! And the pumpkins, getting ready for winter. Thanks for a chance.
My favourite season is spring! I love how it smells, and all the young animals, and how you can almost feel the world shrugging off winter. Thanks for the chance!
I love autumn too.Spring and summer are of course wonderful, but in autumn I love the coulurs and the nature is going soon to take a long, long sleep.All is going a little bit slower..
That´s lovely.Also to have a chance to win fabric.Thanks!
Hugs Gudrun
Beautiful fabric! I love spring and autumn, the Spring because everything is starting to grow, the lights come back and you now Summer is just around the corner. The Autumn because everything i slowing down, you can sit in your sewing room without feeling that you "should" be outside!
PS. And I am a follower!
Spring is my fav! I'm a follower :)
My favorite seasons are spring and fall. I favor the more moderate temperatures and I love the spring colors and the fall colors best. I am a follower! Thanks for the great giveaway!
I,m an autumn person -mellow fruits and autumn days spent sewing for Xmas
That first set sure is lovely. I wish I could sew. But if I were to win, I would have you send them to Pam at Treasures & Textures as she is an excellent quilter who lives in AZ. :) Hope you have a wonderful day! Best wishes, Tammy
I don't really have a favorite season but I do love that time of transition in-between seasons... like right now, the summer is hanging onto its last bit of heat, but sunrise is coming later, and you can tell the world is about ready to change. And then in the fall, when you get that first whiff of snow... or in winter, when you see that first crocus or daffodil... or in spring, when you have that first really hot day that calls you to the rivers... Mmm... those are my favorite "seasons" ;-)
I love the beautiful colors of the fall trees.
I love the fall... the colors, the harvest, the smell, and the temperature.
This is a tough one! I guess I like winter because it is the only time I don't have allergies. Especially since the winters in Southern Ontario are so mild.
Sarah
Gorgeous fabric!! I think my favourite season is autumn. Late autumn though, when it's chilly and the ground is frozen on a morning. (I also love the winter but only if we don't get ice for three weeks solid and you have to take your life in your hands if you step out of the front door!)
I love the spring and all of its bright colors!
Great giveaway and I think you can guess which one I'd like ;)
My favourite season is winter (very closely followed by Autumn). I love the holidays, the cold weather, the snuggling, the jumpers, the decorations, the New Year - all of it!!! I'm such a winter person it's ridiculous!!
Spring! I love seeing all the new growth in my garden. However, I also really like winter - snow is fun and brings adventure along with it.
I love Fall usually. I honestly like Summer quite a bit, but it goes really long here in TX and I'm so over it by the end of the season each year.
My favorite season is fall. I love the cooler temperatures and the smells of the leaves. Thanks for a chance.
Fall is the best season, although I genuinely like them all!
Mine is spring.
oh fall for sure! I hate summer in Texas so much that I am giddy when fall finally arrives! Thanks for the giveaway!
My favorite season is fall. We are new residents of the northeastern US and I can't wait to see the beautiful fall colors!! Thanks for the chance to win!
My favorite season is spring with the anticipation of summer ahead. Nice giveaway too.
It's so hard to decide on one favorite season!! They all have highlights that I look forward to as each season approaches... But if I did just pick one? I think it would be FALL :)
My favorite season is fall. Especially this year with the record highs.
For me it is a toss up between spring and fall. After living in the north east fro six years, I love the colors of fall. But I think spring has a slight edge with the fresh, green after a long winter. Regardless, I kind of just miss the change of seasons right now!
I'm already a follower! You have an awesome blog! Thanks for the great giveaway!

Thank you for the giveaway!
I can never settle on one favorite season since I love both fall and spring so much. I love that they're transitional, the sense of expectation they both hold. I just wish they weren't synonymous with rain here!
I'm lucky to live where the seasons change, and it's hard to choose. I think fall is perfect for me. I love the fall colors, foods, scents and temperatures.
I love the Fall........nice respite from the heat of summer but not too cold to enjoy being outside. That Civil War Layer Cake is calling me.......LOL.....thanks for the great giveaway!
My favourite seasons are Spring and Autumn. I love the spring bulbs and the blossoms, but I also love the changing of the autumn leaves. I also *really* like the mildness of the weather, not too hot, not too cold!
I like both spring and fall. I don't like winter because of the extreme cold, snow, and ice. Summer isn't bad until the temperatures soar and stay that way day and night. Spring is so fresh and green. Fall has all the beautiful colors. Thanks for the giveaway and for a chance to win some great fabric. I am already a follower of your blog.
I love Fall. All the colors and the pumpkins everywhere are perfect! I am a happy follower.
Fall is my favourite season in Canada, but I have to say that spring in England wins. Thanks for the brilliant giveaway!
I live the crisp air of autumn. Sunny afternoons and chilly nights, apple cake and football, getting to wear fall colors - olive green and rich brown, and back to school sales! (I am also a follower)

my favorite season is fall, hands down. the smells, the layers, the color, the roasting, the harvesting, the slowing down...
Oh my golly!! Thank you for such a great give away!!! I'd snap up those DS quarters if I was lucky enough to be picked!! Spring is on our doorstep at the moment with daffodils blooming and birds being extra chirpy so I'm going to say Spring is my favourite season.
Fall is my favorite season - not too hot and not too cold - plus it's our birthday season.

My favorite season is summer. Summer, Summer, Summer! I love it even when it's hotter than hot (as it has been the summer of 2012). I love the bright sunshine, the gardens in bloom, green grass, sandals, shorts, hot breezes, kids playing outdoors, sprinklers, ice cream cones . . .
Fall in New Mexico is fantastic: the leaves turn, the breeze crisps up, and the smell of roasted green chile is in the air. And I love wearing boots and scarves!
I love spring...hope in the air and in nature!
I am a fall girl! And a Denyse Schmidt fan. Thanks for the give-away!

It always hot or rainy days at where I live. My favorite will be in between of these two seasons... when there are times, it will be hot in the morning and rain in the afternoon.

My favorite season is winter! I love the feeling of it. The snow, the warm fires, being wrapped all snuggly in a blanket, and hot cocoa in hand. Best feeling ever! Since I am moving to Hawaii for 3 years, I don't think I will be seeing winter much :( I am a new follower!

It has to be fall as the colors of the leaves are changing colors in the mountains and the smell of roasting chili is found all over town.
I like spring with all the fresh newness of everything. Thanks for the lovely give away, and I might change my mind, but if I win the layer cake would play nice with my other stash.
Hello Deborah,
My favourite season has to be spring.....I always feel so great in spring. Its the promise of new life,of things reborn and although spring is lovely here in Spain with its fields and fields of almond blossom, spring always reminds me of my home in the UK. The daffodils and primroses and the wonderful walks in the woods where the trees are renewing their greenery. Yes I love spring!
I am already a follower and would love to enter your great giveaway.
Keep well
