My favorite summer memory is when I would go to Camp Luellamay as a kid. I loved that camp and loved the activities. Went every summer for years, starting with a week and ending with 6 weeks at camp. I would love to go to that came one more time before I leave this earth!
My favorite summer memory are the family picnics with my mom and dad when I was a little girl. They most always included my mom's fried chicken,baked beans,and potato salad. My dad is no longer alive, so these memories are precious to me.
When I was 10 my Grandma, uncle Frank, and I drove to California. It took 3 days to get there. We stopped at the Grand Canyon on the way. We stayed 5 weeks at Uncle Franks house. It was the best trip ever, but I did get homesick.
My favorite bundle would probably be the Fruit Slice - Fat Quarter Bundle Entire Collection by Khristian A. Howell, not normally into fruity fabric, but this is pretty neat looking! Again, thank you!
My favourite summer memory would have been the last time we went out to the cabin in NW Ontario. I was 9 yrs old and I spent the whole summer out there with my gran and any other relatives that would come out for a weekend.
My favourite FQ bundle is cosmos.

Some of my favorite summer memories were hanging out at the lake (Wylie) in South Carolina with my friends and family.
Favorite summer quilt...would have to be one my grandmother had in her spare room, it had lots of chenille squares, and the neatest pink, aqua, yellow, and mint flowers, I can close my eyes, and thinks about it, and go back to simply wonderful times!
My bundle pick would be Hanauma Bay.
My favorite of her bundles is the Cosmos line. christina112358 at gmail dot com

I like Cabana Blooms in Main Floral
That's so awesome of Julie! SO glad you get to sponsor a giveaway!
So let's see... best summer... I think that would have to be the summer after I graduated high school. My best friend and my family went on a two week vacation to California where we hit up Sea World, Disneyland, California Adventure, Catalina Island and shopping. Of course, shopping. Then I came home for a day to wash clothes and turn around to go to summer camp, which I always really loved growing up. Then I came home for 2 days, washed clothes, then repacked to go to Royal Family Kids Camp as a counselor. Then I came home one more day, washed clothes and went with my hubby (then boyfriend) and his parents to his parents' condo in Oceanside for a week where he told me he wanted to marry me! It was a good summer. And yeah... I was a young bride.

I love Peak Hour, now in Julie's store.

My best summer was the summer I met my husband. We both lived at the college dorms and my awkward, shy self would hang out by the dorm pool when I know he'd be walking by. I know, total stalker lol. Anyway he finally came and talked to me one day and 10 years later we're still together!
My favourite summer was the year my first son was born - 1988

each summer is special, I have two kids 7 and 9 and last year we bought an above ground pool from walmart and set it up, the kids and I loved to splash around in it and they both learned to swim really well in it
My favorite summer memory is the birthday present of a hoarded orange that my friend gave me while we were in Russia. It was my 16th birthday and neither of us that had citrus for a month. We shared it and sat there in the sun sniffing the peel. It was glorious. Like edible sunshine.
Maya by Leah Duncan is my favorite fat quarter bundle at Julie's store ;)

Favorite summer has to be one of many trips to Yellowstone. We LOVE that place and would return every few years if the budget would allow. I think we've already been there six times!
So pretty! I've been thinking a lot lately about the summer after my son was born, watching him experience sand and open water for the first time. I can't wait to see my newest baby's reactions to those same things.
My favorite summer memory would have to be the trip to St. Thomas a few years ago. We had so much fun just hanging out at the beach and playing in the ocean. Such a relxed pace!
So pretty..lately i have been attracted to the orange and turq combos...and summer is my favorite time of the year. Nothing better than a hot Southern night.
Favorite (childhood) summer memory: a week @ Merry Meeting Lake, in New Hampshire with my cousin.

That is one beautiful bundle! Best memory of summer: I think that would have to be when I was about 10, going camping in northern Michigan with my grandparents. I miss them. : )
I'm a follower! : )
Favourite summer - one when my kids were young and we had a hot sunny summer. We spent most of our time at the beach or the swimming pool, except when hubby was home from work and we would go boating. So relaxing!
Congratulations on your 500th (and 501st and 502nd!) post!
My favorite summer was the summer I turned 16. My dad and stepmom gave my twin sister and I a used car for our birthday, about 2 weeks later we both met 2 guys (who were great friends) and we started going out with them. Had a lot of fun, and he treated me great! Summer ended, and it was back to real life. As much real life as a 16-yr-old had back then! LOL! I got older, and summer was just another season in the year.
Favourite summer? The lazy crazy summer I started dating my hubby. I smile still, thinking about it!
My favorite FQ bundle is Poetica in Seafoam Symphony.
~Terry~

Probably my favorite summer memory is getting married to my wonderful dh. We got married in Santa Barbara.

Best summer? When we took a missions trip to London, England!
I love the poetica bundles

My favorite summers were going to the beach with my family and boarding all day, then getting fish and chips for supper on the Pier.
My favorite Summer memory was my first kiss with my husband! I lived in California and he lived in Colorado and would visit his family in CA every Summer. The 3rd Summer he finally got up the nerve to make a move - we were 16 and 17! Now we're married with 4 beautiful kids. Best memory ever :)
I am very excited about the Quilt Blocks line that Julie will have in her shop soon! Thanks for the great giveaway!!

Love this new line, esp Sumer Bliss and Swept Away in Intensity :D
I am new to your blog and I am looking forward to read more as a follower!
Since I LOVE orange, I'd have to pick the Tangerine Tango bundle as my favorite... if I HAVE to pick only one :)
Best summer? I think that would be the first one my family lived through in Texas. We had just relocated to Dallas, after living for generations in a small town in NJ. None of us knew any one and we spent the long hot days watching old movies followed by leasurely evenings of swimming and eating nachos. There was a wonderful feeling of peace to the whole summer.
I also folloe Julie at Intrepid Thread. I still am highly enamored of her bundle From Cream to Curry-- Delicious!
And, yes, I am a very happy follower of your ramblings.
I love woodland tails in blue! So sweet!
One of my favorite summer memories was one of those that had a Lunar eclipse. It was really hot outside, and all the neighbor kids stayed up late, running back and forth on the melting asphalt to our houses, waiting for and "watching" the eclipse!
It was a hard decision, but I have to say that the Flock fat quarter bundle by Thomas Knauer is a top choice. So pretty.
Impressions in Purple and Citrus jumped off of the screne and shook my hand, so i guess that is my favorite.
I have lots of fabulous summer memories, most of them centred around the beach. We head to the beach every summer for as long as we can, so every year is a favorite summer!! I just love being by the waves, the sand and the sun!
Congrats on 500 blogs. I am now a follower.
I am a new follower. I loved looking around your blog. LOVE your Echo quilt. What a perfect find for the backing! And your granny squares...gorgeous
My fav bundle from Julie's shop is Poetica...love all the colours but especially the Seafoam
I follow. Thanks
My favorite summer was the first summer I had a car of my own. I would pile all my friends in it and we would drive to Disneyland for a couple days.
Congratulations on your 500th post. Favorite summer memory - 2 weeks at my great-uncle's cabin by a lake. There was no tv but we always had great fun - my grandfather always made sure of that!
I love Tangerine Tango!
I follow you. Thanks for a sweet giveaway!
My favorite summer memory is when I would go to my grandparents village - absolutely light-hearted...))

I like Hanauma Bay a Teal Fat Quarter Bundle! Congrats with your 502 posts!
I am a follower of your blog, Julie's shop is awesome!
Too many summers to find just one memory. We always have great times. But there was the summer I spent 6 weeks touring Europe with my family and 6 weeks after that getting married. Although my sisters say I was a bore on the trip, (always mooning around) I have great memories and then, well, all I can say is we're looking at 43 years of wedded bliss this summer.Yup, it was a great summer! Thanks for the trip down memory land.
Best summer so far is when we retired and moved here. It is so beautiful and we fell in love with the island the first time we visited it.
I remember the year we spent a week camping in The Great Smokry Mountains with our three kids. Another family from church camped with us and we all enjoyed it so much. Thanks for the great giveaway.
I'm a new follower.
Such lovely fabrics!!
A great summer I had in the year of my last exam :) yeah - thinking that this had been the last time of fearing exams - ha - didn´t know that almost 20 years later I will have another one:)
My current favorite bundle would have to be Vintage Modern.
My problem with fat quarters is I just love to look at them and run my hands over them. It takes something to cut into them because them they will be gone and I won't have any more eye candy. So I love all the collections. But if I were choosing I love Cosmos Vermillion and Power Pop. Love that yellow. Thanks.
I love cool breeze and congrat's on your 500 post, thanks so much for the awesome giveaway.
I'm now a follower of your blog. Congrats on 500+ posts!
My favorite summer is the summer of 2009. It is my most cherished and most devastating. My dad had terminal cancer and I got to spend every day with him, we got to know each other on such a deep level and he got to see me as a grown woman instead of always seeing me as his little girl. I will always cherish this time. He sadly passed mid summer and he told me he would talk to me every day. Even though I don't hear his actual voice I know he beside me everyday.
My favorite summer is when I went to California to visit my youngest daughter...I fell in love with San Francisco!!
What a gorgeous bundle! Julie is my favorite fabric lady! My most cherished summer memory is the summer I spent taking day trips on horseback through the Porcupine Hills of southern Alberta (our home) with my father and having his undivided attention and basking in the joy of listening to his stories of the cowboy life.
I'm a new follower.. :-)
Best summer memories were at the family cottage swimming and learning to waterski!! thanks for this chance to win the beautiful fabric.
I just love The Intrepid Thread and how she puts great bundles together...I want them all! I'll start with Hello Pilgrim, then on to Summerlove and then some color bundles, and then....
I follow your blog.
I love the Hanauma Bay bundle.
I have wanted the woodland trails bundle.
I think the hose fight with the Mr. last summer was great while we were washing the cars.
congrats on 500! I loved the Disney vacation I took with my family and now-fiance, a couple of years ago.
My favourite summer is all of them! Warm weather and family visits happen every summer! Love them all!
