Where would I be in Winter if I had my wish is right here where I am with friends and family. No matter what weather we are having.

Happy Quilty 2009! If I could be anywhere in winter other than home, I would probably go somewhere where there is snow, but not too much of it to be a bother. I live in Perth Western Australia and it doesn't even get to freezing here in winter (occasional light frost in the hills only). So how about New Hampshire, there's a great quilt shop there that I visit online...
Anywhere hummmmm right here leaving a comment for you...hapi nu year
Hi Candace...

Hi Candace from Tasmania.
I would love to experience England in the winter. Tasmanian winters can be cold but not too much snow. I love those photographs of english villages with snow topped roofs.
Regards,

Hey Candice, Happy New Year to you!
My favorite place to be in winter would be a nice log cabin up in the mountains with my family, hot chocolate, some boooks and my sewing machine!
But since I don't have a log cabin, my favorite place is snuggling on our couch while I sew and my hubby and son read books aloud!
Since I live in American Samoa, anywhere where it is cool and since I am here, I would love to be in Texas where two of my sons are...(I know that is not very wintery).

Happy New Year Candace! This will be the year you can move to your new home! My favorite place in the winter right now would be right here with my family and friends. I love January and February especially because the hectic holidays are over and I have more time for sewing and reading. (of course if hubby wanted to take me to Cancun or something for a few days, I wouldn't argue!)
My favorite place to be this winter would be North Carolina visiting with my new grandson!
My favorite place in winter is my chair in the sitting room, either working on some hand sewing or reading a good book, with my dogs at my feet.
This looks very fun! After the snow we have had this year, I am tempted to say that my favorite place to be is Mexico but really it is curled up in my chair with a good book, some applique, or knitting and a cup of hot chocolate.
I would like to be in Seattle this winter...and spring...and summer...and fall!
My favorite place to be in winter is in front of a warm fire doing some handwork or working on a quilt. If I had to choose a geographical location, I'd wish it to be Colorado, in front of a fire, etc., etc. LOVE WINTER!
I also like to be by my woodstove, knitting or sewing.

Good Luck everybody!

Happy New Year!
If I could be anywhere in winter, I'd be in New York City. I love walking in Manhattan and looking at all the store windows dressed up for the holidays. The giant Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center and watching the ball drop in Times Square on New Year's Eve.

Where I would want to be in winter - where it is SNOWING! Sitting indoors, looking out over a beautiful snowy scene. That IS where I am as a matter of fact. ;)
My favorite place is right here at home. With a refrigerator full of good food, my favorite coffee and creamers, and plenty of sewing to keep me busy. Preferably with a light snow falling every day and minimal housework!

Thank you for offering such great prizes.
Quebec City in Canada or Switzerland. Sigh.
Great giveaway! Mine starts on Friday so please stop by.
I hope that the new year holds many wonderful possibilities for you.
I would have to say that my favorite place is right at home. Although, a week in the Carribean wouldn't be hard to take either!
Thanks for the giveaway.

Aloha! I would love to be in a cold place where there's lots of snow! Maybe the Pacific Northwest! I've lived here in Hawaii ALL my life & the only snow I ever see is atop Mauna Kea!! I had the opportunity to be in Oregon in Dec. 2007-Jan 2008 & was so BLESSED to experience being somewhere it was snowing for days! Loved it!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
My favorite place to be in winter is somewhere warm. My poor old bones don't love the cold. I like a beach, even if it isn't warm enough to lay in the sun.
OR I like to be in Merida Mexico which is in the Yucatan. I beleive it is in the 80s there today.

Where would I want to be? I'd love to be infront of a warm fireplace watching it snowing outside while sipping on some hot cocoa topped with marshmellow cream. YUM
What a fun giveaway! If I could be anywhere in winter I would be with my little family at a cabin in the mountains that we have "borrowed" from friends before. It is snowy and beautiful there. As long as there is plenty of food to eat and games to play as a family, I would be happy!

Happy New year to you too !
Where I would like to be in winter ? Other than at home ?? Well ... somewhere warmer. Not hot. Not tropical, but ... 20-25 centigrades an occasional mild breeze and the sea close by :-)
Lovely giveaway! Please put my name in the drawing, my favourite place to be in winter is snuggled up in my bed with a good movie playing, a cup of tea next to me and some stitching in my hands :o)
Call me crazy, but I would love to be somewhere surrounded by snow. Some fancy, schmancy ski resort; I could enjoy the snow outdoors, and then a hot-toddy by the fire inside!
Count me in on your drawing - so generous!
Since I'm not one who enjoys the cold, I'd rather be in Far North Queensland for winter cos it's warm up there all year round :o).
Hugs,
Joy :o)
Anywhere in winter.......it would have to be Lake Tahoe, CA. So beautiful. We went out 2 years ago in June, how amazing. Although it was the start of summer for us here in NC, they still had snow in Tahoe. I love the charm moda packs. I WANT, I WANT.
Don't get me wrong. I love winter. But by around the end of January I would love to be anywhere warm. The Caribbean would be nice! Thanks for entering me in your giveaway.
well, how fun is this! where would i like to be???? i know this seems weird, but anywhere there is consistent snow...i love winter, snow, ice...i miss skiing, skating, sledding.
I would like to be with my family! Growing up in South Dakota we also had real winters, not snow for two days like other states, or no snow at all like the south (where we are now!). A real winter so we could make snowmen and have snowball fights would be awesome. Which we did last year and it was a lot of fun!
Happy New Year!
I would want to be on a warm beach....but first I'd have to hope I could get to an airport that wasn't having flight delays because of bad weather! So...I guess I'll be content to stay with a quilt by the fireplace. NICE prize package and I'd love to win it. I hope you visited my blog to enter my giveaway, too.
I love it right here in central Illinois! We had an ice storm (a terrible one) but it was so beautiful! Moda Winter was my favorite for Christmas this year!
Great giveaway! My favorite place is in our warm house (we have a wood burner for heat) watching the snow fall outside. Thank you! :0)
What a great giveaway! I do enjoy your blog very much! If I could be anywhere in winter, it would be right here on our farm in Oklahoma!
Best wishes for blessed new year.
Corny - but I I like right where I am at - nothing better! In winter it seems right to be in a cold climate. Fun giveaway!
One winter we escaped on a week long trip to Puerto Vallarta, and I'd sure like to be there now! Sunshine, warm ocean, with my family enjoying it with me...
Great giveaway, I think the best place to be during winter is HOME.

My favorite place to be in winter is at home, under a quilt with a handcraft project and a nice glass of wine. If I could be anywhere in winter, I would choose somewhere there was a ton of snow with the possibility of being snowed in as long as I had lots of craft projects, of course.
Have a great day.

I would like to be back in the famous Blizzard of 1977 (yes, I'm old!). I was snowbound for a week with my two young children: warm, cozy, plenty of food, nothing to do but play, watch TV, read, and sew. I made a suit. I'd do that again anytime.
I like being right here even if it is -25. My sewing studio is nice and warm!
Hi Candace...
I'd like to be on the beach in Maui doing some embroidery! Right now I'm looking at a new 6" snowfall in SE Washington... it's really beautiful, but 3 feet+ is enough!
Happy, happy New Year!

I love a cold raining day spent in my quilt studio with favorite music and quiet home as I stitch away my hearts content....oh....am I dreaming?.....I was heading there!
Easy! I'd be where I am, in front of the fire with my family. Christmas time/Winter time is the best to be with family.
I like to spend my time hand quilting in the winter, so I guess I would want to be right where I am...home with a quilt in the hoop!
At home, so I don't have to go out if I don't want.
In the winter I love to be at home with my son and husband and a good book, board game or project!

I live in northern Wisconsin so we get lots of snow & cold. But I need to separate "winter" into 2 parts. Nov - Jan is great. I love the snow - ski, snowshoe, icefish, stay home & quilt! But by the end of Feb. I want to be ANYPLACE WARM!!!!! (tegens@charter.net)

Now that I am retired I am right where I want to be in the winter time-living in the woods here in the ozarks-just gorgeous and I can view all the beauty from inside looking thru our bay window-Kathy
I can't decide between two options: I'd be curled up on the couch at home with a warm blanket, a cup of tea, and my latest knitting project, or I'd be out in the snow on a cross-country ski trail.

I would choose to be in Arizona where it is warm and sunny and my granddaughter lives there.

I'd like to be with my family, and that happens to be in Colorado. The snow is nice when it's falling and fresh, and I can stay inside and sew or read, with a big quilt on my lap. But I wouldn't mind a weekly Monday sunny beach excursion!
PS I am making goals, not resolutions, myself!
I'd be on a beach in the Caribbean!
What fun! I would be in Montana, lots of snow, a blazing fire, nice cozy drink and all of the quilitng projects I could think of. Oh, yeah, I better bring the family! LOL
Living in PA in the winter, other than being in my house next to a roaring fire, I guess that I would like to be on a beautiful tropical island. Instead of feeling the bone chilling wind I would be enjoying the warm tropical breezes. Thank you for entering me in your very generous giveaway.

Well, we get a lot of snow here so I would pick some where warm! What a nice giveaway.

I'm from Texas and we don't get much snow. So, just for one Winter, I'd like to live somewhere where there is lots of snow...maybe Ohio...I like Ohio! :) But after that, it would be back to Texas for me...until summer, and then maybe I'll go back to OHIO! LOL ~ Amy
Love your give-a-way. Thanks for the opportunity to win!

If I were wishing on a winter star, I would want to spend the winter in San Diego where the climate is so much more pleasant than here in MN. But I actually like snow as long as I can spend my time in my sewing room and don't have to shovel too much. My grandson likes to visit and calls my sewing room "cozy". :-) Would love to be entered in the drawing for your great giveaway!!
I think it would be fun to be in....well....any place warmer than here really! Canada's pretty cold for a lot of months! lol I wouldn't want to be anywhere else but here for Christmas though. :o)
My favorite place to be in the winter is looking out at the snow covered landscape from a picture window as I quilt.
Great giveaway prize! If I could be anywhere in the winter, I'd love to be in a mountain cabin somewhere with my family...fire in the fireplace, lots of snow outside and lots of quilts to snuggle under. :)
I would be somewhere warm and dragging my family with me of course. As long as I am with my family I am happy though. Thanks for the chance!

Warm winter wishes!

Where? Of course in my sewing room creating warm quilts!
I'm happy in the winter as long as I'm inside with the fireplace on, sitting in my leather chair hand quilting with my cat covering my legs. Nothing better! Please add me to your list.

1st, what a generous giveaway! 2nd, my favorite place in the wintertime is snuggled up with my hubbie, my son (16mos) and my two doggies on the couch, drinking hot cocoa. Barring that, I would take Las Vegas!
Happy new year. My favorite place in the winter is sitting on my sofa with a quilt on my lap and making another quilt. And it's snowing outside
My favorite place to be in winter is at my cabin in northern Michigan. It's the only place I enjoy all the snow. Thanks for including me in your drawing.
Great giveaway. I think my favorite place to be is in my sewing room. Enjoying the peace and quiet.
i have always wanted to experience winter in England, so that's where I'd like to be!

I love being right where I am now, in Montana. We had the most perfect white Christmas this year. Eight inches of beautiful, fat, soft snowflakes. It was picture postcard perfect. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else...

Like so may others here, my preference is to be at home in the warm sewing - add to that, whilst watching a favourite old film on TV. Thanks for hosting a great giveaway.

Hi Candace,
I just found your blog through the WIW-website and I'm glad I did! Your blog is now on my rss feed list - I love the work you show and I'm already looking forward to reading more of you ;o).
My favourite place to be in winter would be in a lonly, warm cabin with a fireplace, my sewing machine, a cozy armchair & tons of chocolate in all its forms to enjoy stitching while looking the snowflakes fall...well, I've never been to that place but this is my romantic dream of winter ;o)
Happy new year,
Julia
If I could be anywhere for Winter, I would be here at home with my family and friends...
I would be in San Francisco with my daughter and grandson if I could be anywhere.
Well, my husband thinks he needs to be in Arizona playing golf. In all reality, I would probably pick home with my cats and sewing. I am a terible home-body.

Anywhere? I'd like to be in a cabin in the mountains and not have to go out for anything. I'd just watch winter happen all around me.
Happy 2009!
Someplace where the wind chill is considerably less than -27. Would want DH and my sewing machine, not necessarily in that order. But OK, he's a keeper. He washes dishes.
I would be in Washington visiting my daughter.
Thanks for entering me.

great prizes! i love being HERE. this year(in BC) we had a ton of snow and i love nothing more than going outside with the kids and playing in the snow
If I could choose anywhere in the world to be in winter, it would be right here in Kansas on my 5 acres, stitching away and enjoying the snow. A very Blessed and Happy New Year to you!
Candace, Thanks for the opportunity to win your awesome prizes. If I could be anywhere I'd be right here at home in Arizona. It's a little warmer here than in most parts of the US. I sure hope I win this one. :)
"If you could be anywhere in winter, where would you be?"
I'd love to be anywhere that's HOT ... like the equator. I'm so cold with all this winter. thanks.
I would be in a log cabin, in Maine, with a roaring fire in the woodstove, family all around the house. Of course I'd be stitchin on a quilt. warmheartthunder@yahoo.com
What a great give away!! Where would I rather be? Maybe Hong Kong? Thanks for doing this!!
My favorite place to be in the winter is snuggled up under a quilt in front of a nice warm fire.
Anywhere is winter? In front of a blazing fire wrapped in a quilt with my dog beside me. In a cabin in the woods! claire mckiernan@rogers.com
