A trip to Texas, the zoo, the pool, and lots of backyard time catching fireflies with my little ones. Love this fabric!

Spending lots of time on the roof garden soaking up the warmth of summer! I love these fabrics!!

Love your blog! Hope to squeeze in some serious quilting time this summer!! And of course, surfin' the net for some great inspiration! Thanks!

I plan to build up a "stock" of things to sell at craft fairs...fabric luggage tags, ribbon "clippies", etc.

Nothing planned really, just hoping for lovely Summer weather and some quality time spent in my little city garden and to make it perfect... a lot of stitching!

Have a new deck, bought a deck recliner three years ago. Hope to take recliner out of box, sit on it and hand stitch til it hurts.

Hello there, I am a big admirer of your work...simply put.....this summer I'm working steadily. I do interactive theatrical storytelling events using beautiful handmade puppets, props, and costumes. I have about 60 bookings this summer! Also working on making WrapADoodle swaddle blankets and other gifts for babies. Will take one week off at the Jersey shore. :) Hope you have a nice summer

Going to the beach next week with my family and my husband's parents and brother and his wife and daughter! Then we're going to Fargo in August to visit my husband's grandmother whom I've never met :)

I love these fabrics and all your others, too! :)

A vacation with my husband!

I know this is cliche for a quilting blog, but I discovered quilting at the end of last summer. I am a teacher. Choral music. High school kids. Not much time to learn. So...this summer I plan to quilt like it's my job....oh....I also want to swim, do a pilates class twice a week, take walks with my husband, enjoy time with my friends and enjoy my son's wedding!!!! :) (I love summer almost as much as I love your fabrics!)

We are heading onto winter - so lots of baking and quilting - good winter activities! Love your sweet designs.

Difficult for me to plan things
Hope I will see my grand children and take them have a swim in the mediterranean sea, where I live
... and maybe make a quilt with your fabrics...

Lovely giveaway!

I plan on enjying the outdoors & watcing my little one grow :)

the only thing we have planned is lots of t-ball games! we've had such a busy year already, it's exciting to have the summer all for us. Those fabrics would make a fabulous baby quilt!

I am planning to work like a maniac to pay my daughter's college tuition and my son's braces!

Going to Minneapolis to Back to the Fifties Car Show in June. Attending my brother's 50th wedding anniversary in July. Relaxing the rest of the summer. Love your fabrics!

the "summer girls" (all the girl cousins) are going to nantucket for a couple of days. we also will spend a few days in ogunquit, maine.

i'm going to sew like a crazy woman, but then that's what i always do! hoping for a weekend in san diego with my hubby...we need a vacation! love the fabric as always!

Darling fabric, my summer is going to be the same as the rest of the year running kids! Can't wait until next year when my DD can drive.

My husband and I purchased an old building in our small town and will spend the summer restoring it to open a quilt shop! I hope to collect stories of the building's past from local residents, maybe even some photos. I will take time out to order quilt fabrics and start sewing pattern samples!

My plan is to sit by the side of the pool while my grandkids and neighbor kids play in it! Iced tea, sunshine and laughter - I'm a happy girl!

I am planning a vacation with my family and to stitching morning till night.

I'll spend the majority of the summer with my 22 month old granddaughter Reagan, who lives three hours away.

I'm planning on going camping a few times. I'm also starting school again. It's been 7 years, so I hope I do okay.

Plans = Quilting, moving to NM, hanging out!
Thanks for the giveaway!

Traveling with family to NC and Pa to visit family, going to San Francisco and Yosemite with husband!
I love your fabric :)

Great giveaway! Love your fabrics. My husband and I are building a house ourselves, so that's pretty much where I'll be all summer! It'll be worth it come winter when we're cozy in our new house. :)

going to visit family, going to Charleston, SC - working on some house projects with my husband (hopefully making a stone patio)... I love these fabrics! I can think of lots of things to make for my girls with it :)

I'm planning on finishing up my WIPs, plan a wedding, and move!

I'll be teaching my oldest son to read...and doing lots of sewing for all three boys!

Beautiful fabric! My summer should be full of sewing and gardening with a little cooking thrown in for extra measure. HOpe yours is wonderful!

Absolutely adore this bundle of fabric. We'll be visiting my daughter and son-in-law's house on the beach in Brookings, Oregon. Fishing, crabbing, floating, walking on the beach, sleeping. I am ready!

Spending hours at swim practice or swim meets or music gigs....and while chauffeuring and sitting I will be stitching or dreaming of sewing or dreaming of a vacation...oh and a little desert gardening thrown in for good measure lol

Hmmm... hanging out at our town pool or the lake, running the kids around town, maybe a trip or two to visit my family and sewing when it isn't too hot in my sewing room!

The dreaded knee surgery is coming up! Will be so glad to have that behind me!

My in-laws are arriving soon for a month-long visit, so we are hoping to explore a little more of our beautiful Vancouver Island. Other than that, watching the garden grow, the children play and adding to my sewing to-do list!

I'm reopening my etsy shop in June! Can't wait to sew new stuff for the shop. The beautiful fabric will come in very handy for all my new sewing!^___^

12 hours of graduate coursework, work,and as much time with my kids as I can fit in there!

Karen G.

My summer plans are to spend as much time as possible with my Son and DIL and brand new granddaughter, plus my Daughter and SIL who will be moving 1400 miles closer to me!! Every weekend on the lake if I have my way!

I have a few trips to Philly planned and I'm hoping to go camping at some point. Thanks for the giveaway!

My plan for this summer is to spend a LOT of time in my studio making quilts for charity. That's why new fabrics are always so welcome. *S*

this summer we're planning on lots of outside play with my two little ones and a trip or two to the beach in Norfolk, UK.

Love the new fabrics! The plan is to get back into a creative mood and hope to use some of my fabric stash. Thanks for the giveaway.

My dad is taking my 3 children on a cruise for 2 weeks and I plan on spending time with my hubby and sewing, sewing, sewing! This will be the first time in 25 years we'll have the house to ourselves. My youngest daughter and I are also going to NY to look at colleges.

I'm planning on building a shed. I have no idea how I'm going to do it or what I'm doing but so far I'm feelin pretty confident :)
Thanks for the chance to win!

I'm looking forward to the beach this weekend and then some lazy days to recuperate from taking a 3 year old and an 8 month old to the beach:)

I am planning on hanging out at the pool a lot so I don't melt in the Arizona heat! Thanks for the giveaway!!

Our summer has already began. We are spending 3 weeks with my in-laws having lots of grand adventures. Then time to rest and relax by pool side and beach side, hit the zoo a few times before year- round school starts in mid- July.

We're planning to spend a lot of time outside and getting ready for kindergarten

We're planning to attend a huge family reunion camping trip for a weekend, and then taking the next week for a camping trip with just our own family - can't wait!

Love all your fabrics-the greatest!
This summer my daughter will have another boy(already has 4 yr. old twin boys) --so I will be spending time helping her. What a wonderful experience-looking so forward to that!

I just found out I am pregnant again so I plan to get the house organized and a new baby room set up.

Besides sitting at the beach, NYC for my 50th Birthday with hubby and friends!!

moving to a new town in a new state. I couldn't find a fabric store in town and it looks like the closest one will be 45 minutes away...put a big damper on the excitement of new beginnings.

Hope your summer is an adventure as well...

Stacey

There's no end to the excitement this summer. I'll be baking tons of cookies for my daughter's Pittsburgh wedding later this month and sewing lots of pink baby things while awaiting the arrival of my 6th grandchild due in early September. Have a wonderful summer Amy and thanks for another great giveaway.

Those fabrics are so cute!! I plan on just hanging with my 2 year old daughter, doing lots of craft projects, & hopefully squeezing a little family getaway! Thanks for the giveaway! :-)

I think I'll do anything possible to stay cool!

We will be spending lots of time outside and with friends...and saving up for a trip to Disney at the end of the summer!!!

We're taking a Tigers' bus to Toronto to see two Tigers/Blue Jays ballgames. We'll be staying at the same hotel as the Tigers and having brunch on Sunday with some of them.

super cute fabrics!

my summer plans are to get outside more, and explore my surroundings. hoping to start hiking with a friend!

Most of the summer will be spent in Montana (we live in Virginia) where my DH will begin his Masters work and I will play in the mountains with our 2-year-old. We return home precisely 11 days before my due date (Dear #2, please, PLEASE stay IN until we get home!)

This year I will finish up 16+ years in Germany and head to FL to live near my first grandchild!! WOOT!

This summer I plan to spend as much time living outdoors as possible! I want to camp with the family and have dinners outside every night!

Ilove the on a whim line. We are mid renovation so that is most of our summer plans.

We are moving to our house this summer :)
I love your fabric!

Christine

I am going to Italy for a little vacation with my dh (and no kiddos). I'm excited, as we have never had an "alone" vacation :) The rest of the summer will be filled with sewing, gardening, pools, parks and family fun!

I'm having a baby in august so my only plan for summer is lying in the garden with him and my boyfriend and just enjoy :)

What a wonderful giveaway - count me in! I'll be in this area all summer enjoying the mountains when I can and quilting with a new group I recently joined at church ~

Darling fabric! : )

We've just moved from Portland to Seattle, so we plan to spend the summer exploring our new surroundings : )

Thanks for the chance!

LOVE LOVE these prints. THanks for such a generous giveaway!

This summer... we plan to do lots of raised bed gardening in our little urban yard, lots of biking, hikes in our provincial park nearby, and sprinklers.

A trip to the Oregon Coast (and probably the quilt shop in Cannon Beach). I'm also hoping to work on drafting some adult clothing patterns.

I love your work :) Best wishes!

This summer I hope to quilt, catch up on putting our photos in photo albums, and spending quality time with my daughter, husband, and friends before baby #2 comes in September!

This summer I hope to finish up an art quilt and submit it to the Quilt National juried show. This weekend I hope to gut my closet-sized bathroom and make it large enough to turn around in without bumping into something.

This summer we will sidewalk calk the driveway, run in sprinklers, eat ice cream and snow cones, we will have a backyard "drive in" movie night, camp in the back yard, go to daddy's softball games, play at the park and go to the pool, we will ride bikes and take walks, we will get a suntan, and best of all at the end of the summer we will take a little family trip to the lake. Can't wait!

This summer I hope to get my Upstairs bedroom clened up where I can quilt in it this winter. Hopefully I can get rid of a lot of my stash.
Mary

This summer I'm doing a few bits and bobs, going on holiday to Ireland for a friends wedding, have lots of lovely days out with my lovely other half and gorgeous baby daughter and working as much as I can on my writing, illustration + crafty things!

The fabric is gorgeous, thanks for such a great giveaway, love following your blog!

Thanks for thinking of us fans! Teaching nature camp, sewing, chillin' and family trip to Salt Lake this summer.

I want to spend the summer in the garden with the kids, keep your fingers crossed for some non-traditional English weather for us!

I'm planning to spend the summer hanging with my three kids, sewing and sipping frosty drinks by the pool. Maybe learn rowing, rock climbing ...

Summer is a long way away for me but this winter should see us take the kids on a snow trip for the first time!! I can se some hand quilting on that trip.
;-)

Wow! How exciting! My toddler has just learnt to identify a 'cat' .... Summer ... just hit winter here! I'd love to spend some long rainy weekends at our cabin hunkered down as a family doing creative stuff ... next summer I will look forward to again getting away to our cabin but instead to all the outdoorsy stuff & the ski boat action!
Cheers

Amy , thank you for the opportunity to win this wonderful giveaway. I use your fabrics in my grandaughters quilts and in things I make for myself , like my camera holder.
This summer I am planning my daughters wedding shower and wedding so I will be quite busy. In between, I hope to sew.

Those kitties are so cute! Our family is planning a 3 day Bible Convention -, then in Aug we are going to PA for a few days to teach people the Bible in an area where there is not much help. Also visiting family!

I will be spending some time in and out of the hospital :( but hope to be making a few summer clothes since I've gained some weight. Thanks for the giveaway and hope your summer is wonderful!

How cool! TU!

Going to my 20th year college reunion....followed by a family vacation out on Fire Island....then RELAXING (and of course, sewing).

This summer I plan on doing some boating and a lot of sketching in my garden.

it's winter here in Australia right now but my mum is planning to come to the US to visit my brother and his new baby in August so that's plans for your summer. I love your fabric.

I work in the school district as an educational assistant and have two whole months off! I am planning to make two blouses for my daughter with some of your fabric that I ordered.

I'm going to stick to quick, simple projects this summer.

Plans for a family reunion, a stay at a B&B and sewing.

Darlis

This summer I have a lot on my plate...I will be packing to move to a new apartment across town, getting ready to put my daughter in kindergarten and most of all getting ready to give birth to my second daughter in September. I really hope that I am also able to fit in some sewing for this new sweet baby that will be here in 3 short months. Wow!!! Time flys!!!

well it is winter here but nice and mild so we will be bike riding along the river...I am probably too far away for your giveaway but wanted to say how cute your fabric is!

We just did a trip the NYC, now, I'm planning my hubs 70th birthday party. Nothing else, major, planned. Just baseball and the zoo.

I am retiring on July 1st so I am planning to spend some time with my sewing and with my 90 year old Mom

Oooo...I'm drooling over those small cats in pink!

Please count me in. Thank you for hosting.

LOVE the sneakers, mismatched pillow cases and is that a stuffed dog...?!

We're planning to spend a week at the Beach. We will be sharing with family and taking our dog too. So...sew, looking forward to it Thanks for asking. : )

What are you doing this Summer?!

Hopefully lots and lots of relaxation with my kiddos. And a trip to visit the in-laws.

a bit of camping with my husband & twins and a lot of play time at the park and some quiet time also... Hopefully a bit of sewing time too!!

I'm with "Nancy"... I'm planning on moving. I'm in the middle of a short sale right now and so I'm at the mercy of the banks... UGH! So, I have fabric in the plastic containers, and everything else in boxes... now, I just need a date to do this. Moving to the Carolinas to be with family and get into fabric back there.

I'm also moving. Seems to be a trend. :) No other big plans, but I hope to make it a fun one!

I will be creative and hope to learn Adobe illustrator. Love the fabrics...

Does it count if I live in Australia and we are just starting winter...rainy, cold, windy. I need some pretty, bright fabric to remind me that summer will be back again. :)

Oooooo! I love love love the fabric!!! We have cats, and both of our children still have their childhood stuffed-animal lions on their beds.
What am I doing this summer? Spending time with my college kids as they come home, working with small kids (babies and toddlers), doing as much as I can for my frail MIL, hosting a gathering of my old college friends, reading lots of books, keeping cool at the local watering hole, visiting family on the west coast, finishing up a quilting project or two, organizing my sewing room/office, puttering in my small garden... I think that is probably enough to fill one summer. :-)

I plan to enjoy gardening on the weekends since I work full time during the week. I love seeing all the glorious color from the flower beds when I step outside my home. I also plan to wallpaper both bathrooms and have tile laid in my kitchen. And of course I'll make lots of cool stuff from the fabric giveaway that is destined to be mine! :0) This is the cutest fabric ever - I LOVE kitties and have three: MeeMee, Splash and Willie. Best, Ani

Gorgeous fabrics! Well it is actually winter here, I plan to stay warm, try to avoid a cold or flu, cook lots of yummy home made soups and stews, and spend the evenings curled up under a huge pile of quilts!

We are taking the kids to DC and then to Jamestown.

Love your fabrics by the way. I made this using your Owl on a whim 2.

We are going to take the kids to DC too, maybe a little time for ourselves somewhere and of course camp for the kids!

I plan on finishing a baby quilt for sister-in-law and trying some new techniques I have been too "scared" to try before. Stepping out of my comfort zone...

week's vacation with my sister at simultaneous knitting and quilting conventions (Knitters Connection and NQA) in Columbus Ohio. rest of summer crafting with all the goodies acquired at convention!

This english summer I am planning to spend a lot more time with my children and less time working, than heading to Australia at Christmas for a proper hot hot hot summer - I can't wait, friends, family, the beach, bbq's ... ahhhh

Oh Amy, I love your fabrics. We are spending time with grandchildren and I am sending my youngest child off to college.

Fabrics are super cute! I will be welcoming my husband home who has been working out of the country for 4 years!

I *heart* these prints! I actually have a lot of sewing and maybe some knitting planned this summer. I am working a half day summer school program, but that is just to keep me on some sort of schedule. Right now I am preparing to make a traveling bag for one of my nieces as a graduation gift.

Hopefully a lot of sewing!

These fabrics are so cute!

I plan on sewing and sewing and learning to sew new and different designs this summer.

Hello Amy,
I just found your site and absolutely love the sneakers. I will be moving for the second time this year...getting ready for grad school and putting my 4 yr old in pre-school. Love the pink small cats pattern for a smock or sun dress of some sort. Have yet to see your books section, but I'm sure it's very cute. Have a great summer! Cynthia M.

Plan to do some home chores as in painting then put up veggies and fruit from garden but sure hope to get in some beach/fishing time in NC.
Love the fabrics!

I am a new mom (5 month old beautiful baby boy) and a full time high school English teacher. My husband lost his job, so instead of staying home with my adorable baby (and I'm not just saying that, he is literally, THE most adorable baby ever),I will be spending my summer teaching repeat 9th grade at an inner city school in Southern California! Anyone want to trade? :)

I plan to watch my garden and two little ones (one is 5 weeks old!) grow!

My son (8 yo) and I are trying to grow carrot seeds here!

I am planning to take some art classes in London which would be a welcome break from my day job and hopefully a step closer to becoming a designer and illustrator *sigh* I can't wait!

I will be spending most of my summer with my 9 yr old grandson doing fun things. I love your fabric.
Elaine

What adorable fabric! I am going to be a grandmother this fall, so I will be spending a great deal of my time making baby quilts, and bibs and lots of baby items! Thanks so much for the giveaway!

As I am a Aussie we are now having winter but it is a great time to sew. I am going to be a great gran for the first time. Will be making nighties quilts etc for our new babe.

Gorgeous fabrics. My big plans are to enjoy sewing with the grandaughters and enjoying a new grandchild. How good does it get?

Amazing summer fabrics, Bravo!
I shall be spending the Summer with my children aged 1 and 10 yrs giving them the time of their life, think Enid Blyton esq'. Plenty of adventure, forays into the countryside, pond dipping, Paddling, imaginative play, running through fields, camping trips and picnics.
I will enjoy making summer dresses, shorts, sun hats and picnic quilts whilst they play or nap.I cant wait!
I hope everyone has a good summer!

The fabrics are soooo cute!!! I hope to do lots of sewing this summer along with a whole bunch of remodeling of our new(used) home!
L,A-

I don't know where to begin. I am out of school (I am a paraeducator for special needs children) for the first time in several years without having a summer assignment, so I will make cushions for the four grandfathers (four rocking chairs I have rescued over time), I will garden, play with my 4 dogs and 2 cats (and desert tortoise), and sew till I drop!

Hmm...if I am lucky, I might be sewing up something super cute with some new fabric! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!

And cats goes with the theme of our summer, which is getting to know the two kittens we adopted today.
