Thrift store hunting for materials for upcycling!
I'm a little silly this way but I just love stacking and organizing my fabric for relaxation. I have a really small stash but I love looking at it, folding it ever so neatly, refolding it, re stacking it etc. Makes me so happy to just touch the lovely fabrics, stroke them a little, dream of what I'm going to make with them, and then make them look all neat and presentable =)
I relax by snuggling my pug. She makes me laugh and I think that is the best way to relax.
Thanks for the giveaway! I knit to relax... until it's work related knitting. :D

To relax I like to flick through magazines, or simply set the evening aside from doing anything necessary for just that night, have a glass of homemade red wine and watch TV wsat on the floor with my OH and our dog squished up in between us.
I am a beginning quilter and my favorite relaxing thing to do is curl up with a new quilt pattern book and dream plan the new patterns I would like to try. The fabrics look beautiful. Thanks for the opportunity.
Sewing without a deadline is very relaxing to me.

Relaxing: sewing something creative (not just fixing clothes) or going for a walk.

Love a hot toddy and my knitting!
One of my favorite things to do to relax- Crochet!
I find handsewing very relaxing--be it handpiecing, applique, embroidery all of it is relaxing! I also really enjoy coloring. Give me a brand new box of crayons and a coloring book and I am good! LOL

Laying on the couch in the sun reading or watching the leaves on the trees (falling now). :-)

Depending on the day, either sitting at my sewing machine, curling up with a good book, or going for a walk through a park.
Darn - USA only. Your giveaway is in the wrong section!! Should have been in the SHIP TO USA ONLY section!!
Beautiful fabrics. Reading tops the list (along with chocolate...) Thanks for the opportunity on a great draw. Merry Christmas to you. bonnielarson58@gmail.com
Wow beautiful colors and design other than just solid!
My way to relax is to refold my fabric. I never thought it'd be something like that, but just recently I had nothing to do...late in the evening and didnt' want to start anything and so I just went in to "clean up" my fabric, but ended up refolding and reorganizing and making it all straight and neat...2 hours later, it looked so nice...I was ready to start quilting!

Spending time looking through quilting books and magazines and dreaming up with new projects.
My favorite form of relaxation is reading a good book...sometimes, a not so good book if I am desperate!
I have become a follower. Is your part of Mississippi close to Starkville? My son is a professor there.
Does wandering aimlessly around Target sans children with my eyes glazed over count? If so, that would be it. I never even buy anything when this happens. Its like being in a Target induces trance. Sadly, I won't go anywhere near Target this close to Christmas, and this is one of the times I need the most relaxing!
Very pretty fabric. I enjoy taking a walk with my dog in the woods. relaxes me every time. vivian
I really like those fabrics. I relax with a book.
My favourite way to relax is having a nice hot bath with a good book.
Gardening
TV! Only educational programming mind you :)
Beautiful fabrics! Definitely quilting, even when I accidentally sew things upside down and need to start over.
I've become a follower. Thank you for the chance.
Finding new fabric!
Playing with my 5 year old son, totally in the moment, is one of the best forms of relaxation I know. Thanks for this chance!
Please don't laugh - When I'm under stress and need to relax I organize things. Sock drawers, my stash, books, kitchen drawers, whatever needs it lol. VermontPines at aol dot com

None of the above! A hot bath with a candle or sitting by the fire with a book. Thanks for the giveaway!
I hope that no one has put cleaning the bathroom1
Mine in reading!!
My favorite choice of relaxation is to work on hand paper piecing - I have been working on a Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt for several years now and it is nearing completion!
I am a new follower, Julia!
Reading, watching French films with my husband.
Relaxing would be soaking in the bathtub reading a new quilting magazine.
Thanks for the chance to win.

I love reading in my SUPER comfortable bed. Seriously my bed is my favorite possession ;) Thanks for the chance to win!
well gardeninbg if I'm itchy and can't sit still .. else reading ..
although I do love to sew, to properly relax I have to be doing some form of embroidery in front of the TV with a cup of coffee and preferably some chocolate next to me.
looking at blogs!!
Crochet, Knitting, Embroidery or Reading are things that relax me!
Relaxing? What's that? I have a new baby. I'd settle for sleeping these days! ;-)
Just became a follower, too! Thanks for the lovely giveaway.
I find monotonous activities the most relaxing, like chain piecing, feeding the pieces through without having to concentrate too much on what you are doing, or I can think of nothing better than laying on a a sandy tropical beech (but those days are looking gone lol)
Sewing,or spending time in in a fabric store. wrbontrager@verizon.net
I like to relax in front of the tv with some stitching watching my favorite shows. :) Thanks for such an awesome giveaway! Happy Holidays to You! :)
I used to be specific about how I de-stress -- anymore, I find it relaxing any time I have 30 minutes or more that nobody needs me. I often use that time to quilt or to browse a store or to go for a walk!
reading blogs for sure!

My self soother is knitting. Something is so calming about the gentle rhythm and the clicking of the needles.
Usually it's yarn activities, but lately I've just been watching tv to relax. Really love yoga, too.
Sewing and snuggling on the couch with my husband.

I hadn't seen those before, I love them! To relax I just need a nice hot bath with a fizzy bath bomb, a book about zombies :| and a glass of red wine!
Reading is how I relax! I can't wait to see this beauty inside my mailbox!!! Thanks!
Relax? Sewing or baking with DD2, or with my lovely crafty friend!
and following you!
Sewing relaxes me. I have to get in at least a half hour of sewing each day or I feel kinda disjointed.
I'm a foolower!
I love reading and playing video games and curling up on the couch with my boyfriend for movie night. And sewing, but only when I don't mess something up. -grin- Thanks for the great giveaway!
I like to hand sew to help me relax.

Lovely versatile fabrics. Thanks for ofeering them up.
Other than quilting reading and cooking are my "fun" things to do.

Definitely a reading book would be my favorite relaxation technique.
Reading a book or working on counted cross stitch are both favorite ways to relax. Still pretty new at quilting so that isn't as relaxing for me just yet. Thanks for the chance at your giveaway.
Cross stitching is relaxing to me. I stitch almost every day for my Yahoo group, World of Charity Stitching.
Thanks,
Peggy

I love walking with my dog - winter or summer, rain or shine.
I love to curl up on my bed and read blogs. It's just so cozy.
I find handstitching to be very relaxing.

I have recently started to enjoy getting out in the garden and watching bare patches transform with a little tender loving care!

I like fondling yarn :). I don't mind doing dishes - it's sort of relaxing having your hands in warm water (esp this time of year) Thanks for the chance to win!
Reading a good book or quilting.
Sitting in central park people-watching. So pleasant now that NYC implemented the smoking ban in public parks.

Eating Oreos!! Lol it totally calms me down

The most relaxing thing I do is sit in the barn and let lambs play all over me. Can't wait til that starts up again in a couple of months.
