If you are new here, welcome to my blog. It is Giveaway Day - which runs for most of this week - at Sew Mama Sew. I have a set of 19 Fat Quarters of Bella, which was designed by Lotta Jansdotter, to give away. She is one of my favourite designers and these fabrics are lovely and fun.
I made a point of laying these fabrics out at the sunniest point of the day to get some good pictures as we are into the short days of December here in Canada. I have this set of fabrics to give away because I accidentally ordered it twice - you know, forgot about the pre-order I made - I am sure no one but me ever does that. So I tucked it away knowing that Giveaway Day would arrive.
To be eligible to win this excellent set of fabrics, leave me a comment letting me know your favourite movie of all time - yes, if you have two or more favourites you can tell me all of them. I am hoping to snuggle under some quilts, relax and watch some movies over the holidays and need some new ideas.
I am happy to ship anywhere in the world, so everyone is welcome to enter. I will draw the winner at 5 p.m. PST on Friday, December 7, 2012.
**** You must either have an email attached to your profile or leave your email address in the comment to be eligible for the prize. I will immediately draw another name if you skip this step, and since this is such excellent fabric, you don't want that to happen. ****
********** This draw is now over and the winner has been drawn, it is Leanne who blogs at Daisy and Jack, go here to read about the draw. Thank you to everyone who entered and to Sew Mama Sew for hosting Giveaway Day. ************
Remember, there are 5 different giveaway groups at Sew Mama Sew to enter, good luck!
Best,
Leanne

sorry for your mix up in ordering,so generous of you to pass along this beautiful bundle! favorite movies? PRide and Prejudice by A&E...or Bridget's Jones's Diary...surely there are more, but those are what i think of now.
I think if I had to pick a favorite of all time, I would pick Top Gun. It's a great movie, plus that movie brings back a lot of family memories for me.... Like walking to the video store and renting a VHS player just to watch the movies that we rented! Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.
Would love to win some bella :) My favourite all time movies are THe Princess Bride and Grease!
These fabrics are gorgeous!
I have so many favourite films, it's so hard to pick. I recommend 500 Days of Summer, Some Like It Hot, Harvey (Jimmy Stewart is awesome), Miss Potter and Finding Neverland. Happy watching!
I'm picking two, because I can't decide. Either Braveheart, or Gladiator. Not particularly girly, but I really like them both.
My favorite movie of all time is either Chasing Amy or Ferris Beuller's Day Off. I think I might add Crazy Stupid Love to my favorites too because Ryan Gosling is yummy and this movie is really pretty funny.
Sound of Music! :) And this time of year I love Polar Express!
The Sound of Music, BBC version of Pride and Prejudice, and (of course!) The Princess Bride.
One of my favorite movies has to be Pride and Prejudice. Any of the versions are great and it is such a classic love story.
Thanks for such a great giveaway.

War Games!
As I write this I am watching a movie called Songcatcher. It's about the collection of traditional mountain music in North Carolina around the turn of the century. GREAT music!

My favorite movie is Amelie. I just love the Bella collection and somehow I don't have any yet.
Ferris Beuller's Day Off.
My favorite film is Babe, followed closely by You've Got Mail. For something more classic, try "The Search".

I loved "My Life as a Dog" and "Amelie."
What a lovely giveaway!

I just love The Sound of Music.
I have so many favourite movies but what comes to mind is a movie I can never resist watching again and again if I see if while channel surfing ... and that's Overboard with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. I can't believe how many times I've watched it!
Oh boy my favorite movie... I'm gonna have to go with Cinderella. I used to watch it over and over and over and over and.... sirscientess(at)gmail(dot)com
Whoa. So pretty! Favorite movie is hard. I really like Wong Kar Wai's In the Mood For Love. We'll go with that for today.
I'm a bit of a dork--the one movie that I can watch over and over again that never gets old (in fact, it only gets funnier) is Monty Python's The Holy Grail. Still kill myself laughing on a regular basis with it!
Well I have to say Sixeen Candles, Breakfast club, Pretty in Pink- yeah pretty much anything John Hughes.
Right now my favorite movie is "Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium" but "Cars" is right up there too.
"The Princess Bride" (katierosek@yahoo.com)
What a generous giveaway - gorgeous too! I think my all time fave is Singing in the Rain - so much fun! Also love Truly, Madly, Deeply but not when I can't handle feeling sad - very emotional and moving, and a little out of character for me to like it.
Of all time?! Yikes! Current favorite is the new BBC Emma with Romola Garai. The best of all the Emma adaptations, and I've seen them all!
harper651 [at] gmail
Of all time? That is hard...I think I would go with the labyrinth or legend. I also like Howl's moving castle.
I have watched "Ever After" with Drew Barrymore about a dozen times.
I love this fabric, and the movie Anne of Green Gables. Thanks for a fantastic giveaway!
I was just laughing at myself for my movie pick and then saw that the very first comment was for the same movie: The Princess Bride. Just in terms of the movie I've watched the most in my life, and would always sit down and watch if I stumbled across it on the tv, it's going to be The Princess Bride.
When I was a kid I was convinced I'd grow up to marry a Westley of my own.
(clumsy.chord(at)gmail.com)
12 monkeys, i could (and have) watch it over and over again, I still get chills every time!
I love "While You Were Sleeping." I also love Sense and Sensibility with Emma Thompson.
Favourite movie of all time - ok it's a TV mini-series - BBC's 6-ep version of Pride & Prejudice! Can never watch it too many times.
(hi from canada too - alberta!)
LOL my favourite movie is Independence Day with the delicious Will Smith! Weird, I know!
It rained today (north of Toronto) - quite unusual weather for December! It's been dreary grey for a while now so the sun and then the rain were actually quite welcome :D
i love lord of the rings
radiyas(at)gmail(dot)com
I think it would be a toss up between North and South or Pride and Prejudice
Hmmm....I can't say I have one favorite movie...but I love adventure films (the Indiana Jones movies, the James bond movies, etc), animated films (Ice Age, etc).... How about old movies...Bringing up Baby...the Thin Man movies... ya just can't have one favorite! Happy holidays...

There are so many but I'm a mood to watch Amelie.

Still love Shawshank Redemption... thanks for the chance!
I have a couple. White Christmas and Love Actually. In fact, I may put one of them on soon!
I love Bella! Thanks for the opportunity to win!!

Love the giveaway, thank you!! My favorite movie is "Shawshank Redemption". However, close seconds are "Steel Magnolia","The Jerk", "Gone With the Wind", all "Harry Potter's", all "Lord of the Rings", "Finding Nemo" and "Up". Sorry, I got carried away. :)
Movie recommendations: Casablanca for a classic love story. Up for a great story. Casino Royale (new version) for fun. And Commando for a whole new perspective of The Governator! But of course this time of year, nothing beats Christmas Vacation! Love, love the Bella!
Remember the Titans... I've watched it so many times. Also, Shawshank Redemption, Up Close and Personal, Legally Blonde, Love Stinks...

My absolute favorite movie of all time is a little known jewel called Man in the Moon. It is the first movie that Reese Witherspoon made when she was 13. I laughed, I cried, I loved this movie!

Is it wrong if I admit it might still be The Muppet Movie? I love singing along to the finale!
