Hi, all!
I'm definitely ready to get my whoop whoop on today - for several reasons!!! Vacation starts today, and in order to get ready for vacation, I finished three quilts...
...and quilted eight more that some other good folks have taken to bind and finish....
I'll tell more about these quilts in the next quilt ministry update, but these quilts will bring our total this year to 100 so far! Whoop whoop!!
AND - - - I've hit 700 followers!!!!
Because this event can't go by unnoticed, or uncelebrated, we've got a great giveaway!!! The wonderful Julie of The Intrepid Thread is offering up a fat quarter bundle of Amy Butler's new line, Cameo, in the Tall Stories color way!

I haven't vacationed in a long time - but as a kid, we vactioned in the Adirondack Mts. near Old Forge NY every summer (July) - their fireworks on the lake were spectacular and the local rodeo a must!

I am a follower.
I linky up'd.
I'm currently crushing on Pretty Little Things By Dena Designs - so sweet!
THe birds and the bees in turquoise and purple, oh my!
Cameo, did you see all that turquoise? They have it in Voile too! More turquoise in La Dee Da, and Pretty little things too! I could go bankrupt on that site, for sure!
I love to go to Italy! Venice and the coast nearby is great. But since I had been in Tuscany - maybe my favorite spot in Italy is there:-) Erika/ehellmich@yahoo.com
Hard to decide which fabric is No 1 - but feeling the pistol on my breast: La Dee Da in aqua or coral ...:-)Erika/ehellmich@yahoo.com
My favourite holiday spot is the Vendee in France, because it has gorgeous sandy beaches that are also full of waves that are brilliantly jumpable which was a favourite holiday hobby of mine growing up, we'd go back there every 3 or 4 years.
Congrats on all your followers!

My favorite vacation spot is central Maine. I go every year and it is so relaxing!
Hawaii is an awesome vacation spot. We only had a short time there when we went many years ago and would love to go back someday.
My favorite vacation spot is anywhere I can relax with my family! We're heading out this Saturday for our vacation!! Woohoo!!

I follow your blog. Thanks for offering this great giveaway and congrats on your followers milestone.
Love the Gulf Coast beaches--especially in the winter! Have a great vacation.
Loving It's a Shore Thing--those sunglasses just crack me up!
Vacationing anywhere there is the ocean is perfect for me. Mostly at Ocean City NJ....the boardwalk, the bubble tea and my BFF who lives nearby. Pure heaven.
I'm loving Bukhara the most at IT.
I've been a follower of yours for a while now.
In Julie's shop I like the new Bukhara - Half Yard Bundle Complete Collection... cheery!
I am a follower, of course! Congrats on reaching 700 of us.
My favorite vacation spot is Myrtle Beach in December. My Sweetie and I can still be on the beach with our sweatshirts and not have to worry about the crowd. Oceanside rooms are cheap cheap cheap.
I'm Linky #8. I finished the first week of the Tetris QA. All my blocks are cut for the whole quilt. It's not alot, or a huge finish, but with summer vacation and school not in session sewing time is very very limited. There's still time to join the Tetris QA with Melissa at Happy quilting.
Gratz on 700 followers! Since I live close to the beach, I have to pick the mountains as my favorite Vacation spot. Love finding water falls while hiking.
I am a happy follower. :)
Moab, UT is a vacation spot we keep returning to. We used to live there, so the return to visit is always fun and there's plenty of pretty scenery there too!
Pretty Things is a great line, but all are amazing!
Now I'm an official follower! I thought I was, but the button on my blog leading me here, just made it an easy "go to!"

My favorite vacation spot so far is Oak Island, North Carolina. It isn't commercialized and I can rent a house reasonably and be on the beach by 6:30 most mornings.

Fave vacation spot - anywhere that my family is! We did disneyland last summer and that was awesome, then this summer we were about 25minutes from our front door with my parents and sister and her family, and that was equally good!!
Josephine's "Bouquet in Ink" is fabulous on Intrepid Thread.
I love the islands, Block Island, Nantucket, and Martha's Vineyard.
