«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 399 of 399i love the look & color of this line! my favorite shows are Psych & White Collar on USA. Both are interesting and have a sense of humor.
Downton Abbey for sure! I also like any of the murder mysteries by Sue Grafton. It's hard to pick a favourite.
I love karen barper books babscorbitt@gmail.com
Downton Abbey was great. Person of Interest and Monk are both feel good detective shows. I haven't read a book in a while to offer suggestions, but I always love the classics...I look for the oldest bindings on the library shelves.
My favourite TV series is Spooks from the BBC - and there are 10 seasons so it should keep you going for a while! Thanks for the amazing giveaway
We love Doctor Who! Sadly, they've given the show a break the last couple months, till Christmas.
I like 1Q84 haruki murakami I listened to it as an audio book it is a little hard to get into at first but once you are it is hard to stop listening. My husband even liked it and that is saying a lot.

Revenge is a great television series. It had me hooked from the first episode. Can't get enough of it.
I'd recommend anything by Michael Ondaatje, but especially In The Skin of the Lion, his books absorb me, a brilliant read.
Thanks for an awesome giveaway - my fingers are crossed!
My favourite book is Quiltscapes II by Rebecca Barker... being an artist myself dabbling between quilting, learning to knit and embroidery, this gives me inspiration.

Beautiful material! My favorite TV show is Blue Bloods right now. Cop drama but nicely family oriented! Have a great holiday!
Downton Abbey is great and have seen all 3 series and waiting for the Xmas special now
Awesome giveaway! My favourite tv series is how i met your mother!:)
Oh my god, it is so difficult to pick one favourite book or tv show.
I really enjoyed the BBC version of Sherlock, Dr. Who, Dexter, Diary of a Callgirl, True Blood. You probably know all of these but in Germany most TV shows are really crappy so we have to turn to English ones that are not on telly here.
Books... hm, you could try "Let's pretend this never happened".
The Sookie Stackhouse novels, short and entertaining.
Mort or other Terry Pratchett books.
And I really love "Rumo: And his Miraculous Adventures" and "Labyrinth of Dreaming Books" from Walter Moers. They both are just fantastic, very inspiring and the author illustrated them very nicely himself. I absolutely recommend them to everybody and so far everybody loved them.
Favorite book & Movie: Jane Eyre (any version!); favorite TV series (hands down) is NCIS! Thanks for giving us the chance to share the fabric love!
Books - I just read Kavalier and Clay, Michael Chabon
TV - The Paradise (which is the BBC adaptation of the book The Ladies' Paradise by Emile Zola) and Homeland!
Never ask a librarian for her favorite book! I read lots of kid's books C.S.Lewis, Lloyd Alexander, (you can't sell garbage to kids) and I like mysteries, Anne Perry has some good historical ones, then there are quilting stories.. many mentioned already ... actually, I enjoyed reading the suggestions above and wish I had a bigger choice of books in English.
What a generous give-away - that collection is awesome. And for an awesome read, I always recommend Traveling With Pomegranates by Sue Monk Kidd - great mother/daughter book.
One of my favorite TV series, which was cancelled last year, was "Medium" starring Patricia Arquette.
My grandson got me hooked on John Flanagan's series the Ranger's Apprentice. Fast, fun read. Thanks.
What a generous giveaway, lovely fabric. Right now I'm listening to Robert Parker's "Lullaby" on audio books. I like to listen to audio books while I sew. It's a pretty interesting mystery story. Thanks for the opportunity to win your gveaway.
Some of my favorite things to watch are Criminal Minds - the Boardwalk Empire Series -
as far as books - 1000 White Women - back in time - wonderful story - These Is My Words - story will stay will you long after you have finished reading.
You have such a nice giveaway any one will be lucky to win. Thanks for the Chance..

The only thing I'm watching right now is Revolution on TV - and we waited until the first half of the season was over to start watching. Books. I am reading a Sci-Fi series by Steven Erikson. 10 books! I am on #6, and I think I started two years ago. I have read many others in between, though.
My DH and I have been enjoying a cute show called Hart of Dixie.Net Flicks and have since been watching the new season on the telly.
I've been watching MI-5 streaming on Netflix and highly recommend it. (Originally named Spooks in the UK.)

I like to do embroidery in the evening ,so i am always trying to find favorites for each evening I like mysteries Castle,Vegas Bluebloods ,Midsomer Murders Murdoch Mysteries.
If you haven't read The Count of Monte Cristo, you're missing out. White Oleander is another favorite. These books are in no way related to one another.
Hello from Minnesota! This is an excellent giveaway; I might actually be drooling. I love audio books with a good reader such as Armistead Maupin's "Tales of the City" or Alan Bradley's Flavia de Luce mysteries - the first one is called, "The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie." For series, Downton Abbey, Lonesome Dove, and Band of Brothers are all winners at our house.
One of my favorite TV series is from the BBC - called "New Tricks". It was on our local PBS channel for a few months several years ago & I never forgot it. So one day I looked it up on Amazon.com and learned I could buy it. I now have 8 seasons on DVD. Thanks for the giveaway.
Surf Ninjas for the best movie win!!! MOTO-SURFING!
My favorite books of all time are written by Marie Bostwick and they are all about quilting and the people around Cobbled Court Quilts and so far she has written 5 books in this series.
Books that I've read recently that I loved (most are serious, high-brow literature-- with wonderful plot lines, characters, and senses of "place" and of course very well written): Cutting for Stone; Let the Great World Spin; Istanbul.
I love Clarice Lispector's short stories, she's Brazilian but I am sure you can get them in English. For a TV series, my favourite is Twin Peaks.
saruqa at gmail dot com
I watch CSI and criminal minds, I recommend both if you like murder mysteries.
I love all Jan Karon's books. She wrote the Mitford series and the newer Father Tim series that follows it. I have read them all 2-3 times. It's a great series.
Anything by Terry Pratchett!
I read Peaches by Jodi Lynn Anderson and the sequel to the book. I passed it on to my teen daughter and she loves it too.
"A Wrinkle in Time" is one of my favorites.
Thanks for the give away, I love to read books from Francine Rivers and Lynn Austin.
My favorite TV show is Castle, love the romance between the two lead characters among all the mystery and murder. Beautiful fabric as a giveaway.
I really enjoyed reading "The Help", and you can pick whether you want to read it or watch the movie, or both.
What a great giveaway! Definitely read Janet Evanovich, the Stephanie Plum novels, so funny! I'm not really a tv/movie fan but maybe you'd enjoy Anne of green gables, the tv mini-series?
Downton Abbey is good to watch , but my favourite series is Game of Thrones.
Thanks for the great giveaway the fabrics are lovely
The 19th wife. Great, well written story.
Hmm, well I've been enjoying Being Human, the US version, no idea if it would be your style but its interesting!
These fabrics are gorgeous. If you enjoy romances, The Yellowstone Series by Peggy L. Henderson is a wonderful read.
at the moment I am in love with anything by Tula Pink :) Made the herringbone and arrow's quilts...more to come!!
Thanks for the terrific giveaway!! I love the fabric collection
vickie.van at hotmail.com
I have two all time favorite books...Little Women and The Hobbit.
For TV shows, I just finished watching all of season 1 of "Homeland" and can heartily recommend it if you like dizzying plot twists and lots of suspense. Plus Clare Danes as the most intense CIA agent ever. For books, one book I loved this year was Lauren Groff's "Arcadia" about a boy who grew up in a utopian commune and then was thrust into the larger world.
Anything by Jennifer Chiaverini. She writes Quilt themed books and they are excellent.
I love The Office and The Mentalist! Thanks for the chance to win!
I love that fabric! What a great give away!! My favourite show...well...we only get two stations so my options are limited but give me an evening of Big Bang Theory any day of the week and I'm happy! Books...I haven't read it yet but it is on my to read list is The Breadwinner Trilogy by Deborah Ellis.
I recently found out Maeve Benchy passed this year. I love her books and short stories. Irish humor that makes you belly laugh. Wonderful giveaway, thank you.
I'm re-watching Sex and the City right now - still classic!
One of my all time favs is The Raj Quartet by Paul Scott. Series of 4 books, beginning with The Jewel in the Crown. It was made into a mini series in 1984 which I would also recommend (as its an historical series of novels, the show holds up really well after so much time!!)
(laren.oz@gmail.com)
We are watching, Last Resort. It is not a holiday or hotel show but a submarine/navy show. Very interesting and we watch it online since we gave up cable!!!
Barb@Witsend
Dexter fur shure , Sherlock Holmes with Benedict Cumberbatch (two seasons I think) , Downton Abbey I'm sure you've already been given that one, books oh I am a Canadian lit girl... The Margaret's , Lawrence and Atwood, Alice Monroe , all,of Robertson Davies , John Irving (well he lives in T.O. Even if he is a New Hampshire guy). I too have been seeking out some good reading for the break, can't wait to leave the political wranglings of education in Ontario behind for a couple of weeks and sink into some good stories. Merry Merry Leona good luck on your quest for good entertainment
Thanks for the give away. I just finished the last of the Longmire books by Craig Johnson. I really enjoyed them.
I really like the Fountainhead - I don't necessarily subscribe to all the "ideals" supposedly represented in the book, but I like the story!
The first and best book I'd recommend is the King James Bible. Not only is it scripture, but the language is exquisitely beautiful. :-)
When I sit down and get all comfy to do some handwork, I enjoy throwing in one of my DVDs of Bones. Gosh I enjoy that show! Thanks for the chance.
If you're looking for something light hearted and fun, I highly recommend watching The Big Bang Theory. It's my favorite :) As far as books go, one of my favorites is The House of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer. It's written for upper elementary/middle school aged kids, but it's great! I actually probably wouldn't even recommend it to kids, it's got stuff that they wouldn't understand in it. Any of Nancy Farmer's books are great though!
As books go i would really suggest anything by Tamora Pierce, I just love getting lost in her fantasty land. I also love how all of her books tie in to the same world. Kresley Cole is another author that i would suggest, especially her immortals after dark series (warning, romance novels)
Hi Leanne,
Favorite series- old or new- we have The Newsroom on PVR to watch and watched the first one of the 11 shows recently. It is terrific. Downton Abbey is very popular and they are opening the third season in January. We also loved the show Game of Thrones and Boardwalk Empire but they are quite graphic in places- not something you want to watch when young children are around..
Lots of great stuff to watch.
Regards from Edmonton,
Anna
I've always loved Criminal Minds. :)Thanks for such an awesome giveaway! Happy Holidays to You! :)
I am not much of a TV person. I Like Clive Cussler and Robin Cook novels. Thank you for the fantastic giveaway! jbechosend at sbcglobal dot net
I love "A Ring of Endless Light" by Madeleine L'Engle. I like most of her books (which is good since I was named after her!), but that one is my favorite. So much wisdom.
I am reading Little Bee by Chris Cleave at the moment and it is riveting!
My current favorite author is Louise Erdrich, and the book I like best is The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse
I still love my Harry Potter books. And a great new to me TV series: Once Upon A Time
Susanne
Thanks for the chance to win such beautiful fabric! One of my all time favourite books is One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Chezrooblog at gmail dot com
Thank you for the great giveaway! The fabrics look gorgeous. For a relaxing time over the holidays, I would recommend Drop Dead Diva. To read, check out Dick Francis' books. They always feature horses in some way. The earliest novels are the best.
I love to read so I have a few suggestions for you:
For light reading I love anything by Lisa Jewell. She writes mainly romances but they often have a melancholy edge to them which I think sets her apart from most of the 'chick lit'.
I've recently enjoyed Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch (and its sequels Moon over Soho and Whispers Underground) which are about a young police officer in London who encounters a ghost and finds himself recruited by a small branch of the Metropolitan police that deals with the supernatural
And finally I love the novels of Jasper Fforde - they are really difficult to explain his most popular series feature Thursday Next, Literary detective who can enter books. They are bomnkers but brilliant and the first one is called The Eyre Affair.
The "autobiography" ME CHEETA is a most amusing read, all about the star studded scandalous life of the original Cheeta the Chimp from Tarzan movie fame... :-)
I read The Hunger Game Trilogy. All three books three days in a row. Couldn't put them down.. AWESOMENESS!!
I have been enjoying the TV Series The Good Wife. And I always enjoy Project Runway! Haven't been reading too much lately, so I don't have any current recommendations. Thanks for the opportunity! I Love Architextures!
I love the mystery books of Terri Blackstock. She is a Christian writer and her books are just fabulous. Thanks for a great giveaway.
I would recommend curling up with Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency for a great holiday :)
If you haven´t read them before, Pat Conroy´s books "Beach Music" and "The Prince of Tides" are two wonderful novells. I can highely recommend them!
Gun, Sweden

Thanks for the opportunity to win this fabulous giveaway...I am drooling! It is really difficult to pick a favourite book but I would have to sasy Cutting for Stone BOOK: Cutting For Stone
By Abraham Verghese was one of the best I have read.
I enjoy reading and I have been collecting all of Danielle Steel's novels. As a little girl, I will alway love "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Raindeer". So cute. You have the most amazing giveway ever.

anything by Janet Evanovich, Shirley Rousseau Murphy or Laurie King
A favorite book "Unbroken" tells a fabulous true story about Louie Zamperini that will move you!
I have all Bodie Thones books. Some need to be read in sequence. The best Audio book I have heard is by Joel Rosenberg called The 12th Iman.
Downton Abbey is one of my favorite tv shows. The Hour has just come back on BBC America for a new season, and that is fabulous as well!
for tv shows I really like Grimm... for books, Sarah's Key was amazing... very difficult, but amazing
What an awesome giveaway! My favorite adult book is Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers. For teen literature (that is still a great adult read), that would be Little Women. It's a classic for good reason!
Have you read the Secret Life of Bees? This is an awesome bundle thanks for the chance :)
My favourite read is the Robert Jordan Wheel of Time Series. that will take you a day or week to go thru as they are all long books and I think there are now 13 books in the series.

I love Francine Rivers' books. My favorite is Redeeming Love.
I don't read much...or watch tv ( have you ever watched quiltcam with Bonnie Hunter, so fun). I like anything by Mercedes Lackey or David Weber.
Yum. What a gorgeous collection. Thanks for the chance to win.
For a great snuggle-under-quilt movie I heartily vote for Cold Mountain. Soooo lovely; I never tire of it.
My address is artistinres at gmail.com
I love all the books in the JD Robb series!
have you seen TV series 'Doc Martin'? very funny. Thanks for the giveaway
I just made it through Downton Abby seasons 1 & 2 while finishing off a quilt. Season 3 will be used to finish off last minute Christmas sewing. As far as reading goes, I am currently revisiting some works by Agatha Christie and I have to say I'm in love all over again. They are quick, snappy, and smart. The perfect little break from the ordinary.
Love that fabric!
My favorite book series is Outlander by Diana Gabaldon. Part history lesson, part action movie, part most perfect and real love story you have ever read!

Thanks for being in this fun blog hop. Merry Christmas. The one TV show I will not miss is "Parenthood". Enjoy your relaxing days.
Wohoo! I can't believe there weren't more suggestions for the TV series 'Community'. Finally a comedy that really gets you laughing.
I also agree with the BBC Sherlock series. Both shows on Netflix - yeeay!

Watch Doctor Who. Starting with the 2005 series... wonderful, wonderful show!
Lovely give away. I love Thelma and Louise movie.
If you like to read historical fiction I would suggest The Outlander novels by Diana Gabaldon. Be forewarned.,.. they are 900 pages +/- a few! My husband and I read the first 5 in 6 months! Since then she has written 3 more and working on another. We have them all...
I am about to embark on reading them all again... :)

Of course I had to start reading an Elm Creek Quilters book too. I have just bought series one of Covert Affairs. I like Alias too. I have also asked for book suggestions and have just put about 50 in a PDF to download in my left side bar.
Love the fabric.
This is great I read all of the comments and now I have a list of my own. I love to read a favorite author is Lyn Andrews, she writes about Liverpool families the good and the bad during the depression era. I think my favorite T.V. series is Flashpoint. It is so well done and tonight is the final episode. I love the cast. (A police drama that is full of suspense and not predictable.)
I recently read the Maze Runner trilogy and loved them all.
House and Grey's anatomy... Love hopspital (in TV ofcourse :)) Many thanks for the great givaway!
myself1977(at)gmail(dot)com
Those are lovely fabrics and I'd love to win them. My favorite book right now is (beside the scriptures) anything by Louis L'Amour. I know, I know.....but I've been studying writing in order to write what I want in a book and he has a style that is interesting and exciting. And I love cowboys and horses. Right. This is a girl who loves Shakespeare, etc., and who had read James Joyce and other weird authors....and now I'm reading Louis L'Amour. Who'd a thunk it? Thanks for letting us visit and carry on. Come by and visit me too and follow when you have time. Tell me what you like most to read. Do you have a kindle or something like that? I do....it makes it so easy to devour an author, bit by bit. I read all I could find of Maeve Binchy, too. Fascinating.
My favorite book series will always be Harry Potter. But if want something a little more grown up, try The Pillars of the Earth
I am rereading Gone with the Wind, Scarlett, & Rhett Butler's People right now; they're a pretty good trio of books. The only TV show I really watch is The Walking Dead. Awesome show if you're into that genre.
I just listened to The Bone Garden and enjoyed it.
I just finished watching the 1st season of Copper and I enjoyed it. Here is the description:
In its most significant original programming commitment to date, BBC AMERICA has announced its first original scripted drama series, “Copper”. The 10 episode series, which centers on a young Irish cop operating in the immigrant communities of 19th century New York, is co-created by Tom Fontana (OZ, Homicide: Life on the Street, St. Elsewhere) and Will Rokos (Monster’s Ball, Southland). (Source: BBC America)
I love the writings of Kate Morton-- "The Forgotten Garden" was the best thing I've read in a long, long time.

I read a lot of series. The last one I read, and can read over and over, is the Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Claire. It's teen lit but it sucks you in.

My favourite tv series has to be Downton Abbey, I love period dramas and it is funny too. One of my favourite books is The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfiled, it is a mystery about books. Thank you for such a lovely giveaway.
