My kids love to visit my inlaws where they get to watch deer walking through the yard!
ReplyDeleteI always loved Bambi. I never could understand hunting for deer. One look in those big eyes, and they would have me hooked. Great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteLeave a comment about deer? I could sing you a song... "Doe - a deer, a female deer"...you will be singing that all day now...you will, you know you will!
ReplyDeletewe live in the country and often see deers around us. 15 years ago it was a seldom view but not now - and we love it.

Deer are really cute. :)
ReplyDeleteI grew up in the country and had a doe that would bring her wee ones to the porch for goodies every season. =) I <3 hoos!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I agree that the ric rac quilt would look really good in pink, but then again pink's one of my favorite color, so I think just about anything would look really good in it.
ReplyDeleteso beautifull, realy cute
ReplyDeleteFor me, when I look into a deer's eyes it's like looking into an old soul. You can see straight to their heart when eye contact is made. They are just very sweet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway, this set was put together so perfectly I would absolutely love to make a quilt with it!
We don't see them much where we live, and we are living close to the sea. But once or twice a year there's one jumping through our garden in full speed!
ReplyDeleteI must tell you about my son when he was little.
I think he was at the age of two plus plus. He was watching the Bambi video, and when Bambi's mother died, he was so sorry for Bambi and started crying. He never wanted to see that video again, and he never has. He's now at the age of 22, so I think he'll be ready for it now! :-)
I'm Australian. So when I think of deer its Rudolph the red nose reindeer.
ReplyDeleteI love deer. we used to have some that came to visit our yard in our old house. thanx for the chance!
ReplyDeleteLiving in this house for two and a half years now we REALLY miss seeing deer out our windows. Oh we see an occasional one or maybe two but not the daily sightings of a LOT of them! I especially miss seeing the fawns this time of year. LOVE the fabric!

I'm Australian and they only time I've seen deer is at a deer farm that we drive past on the way to our beachside holiday house. They also sell cuckoo clocks!
ReplyDeleteI hardly ever see wild deer in my part of the UK but when I was a child there was an annual deer roast in our village!!
ReplyDeleteI have the granddaughter of the daughter, of the mother of the same deer line - who comes to my apple tree by my kitchen window to feed on all that delicious fruit - she keeps the drops cleaned up. And then the babies join in, my peaceful morning, first cup of coffee with mother and babes.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have some Hoo's in the forest fabric, it's so lovely!
ReplyDeletewe have wild deer in the forests in co.Clare and it's so easy to spot one in the middle of the road. They're so beautiful, the last one we saw was a baby, a Bambi...
Growing up my friend and I stole her brother's car and hit a deer. No hiding that one!
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I went down to The new Forest several years ago and heard some sustling in bushes, we were able to get within a metre of a beautiful doe curled up on the ground with a new babe, I still get a tear in my eye when that scene comes to mind - precious.
ReplyDeleteDeer me, what can I say about Deers. They are really cute, make great movie stars ( Bambi ) and the Reindeer variety have a very special job pulling Santa's sleigh.
ReplyDeleteOh thank you! Okay, probably not what you want to hear about deer, but we live in the pine barrens of New Jersey and my Dad was an avid hunter so we used to eat deer all the time...I know I know, but that's my only association with deer!
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway! Please count me in!
ReplyDeleteThe life expectancy of deer is 20 years.
I just had an encounter with deer last weekend. In my side yard I had a mother deer and her fawn that somehow found themselves on opposite sides of a chain link fence. I watched and photographed them mostly through my open window -- the mother was about 15 feet away. I could hear the baby "crying" -- if deer do that. They finally got themselves reunited on the same side of the fence but I watched for about 30 minutes before they figured it out.
ReplyDeleteSuch a peaceful animal but, with suicidal tendencies when darting in front of my car.
ReplyDeleteWhen I think about deers my first thought is( how predictable) always Bambi
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love deer! In Germany they are very modern together with "fly agaric" (I hope it is called like that) and little dwarfs.
ReplyDeleteThanks for that great giveaway. By the way: I love the skunks on the fabric!
Greetings

I love deer since my I saw Bambi many, many years ago. They are specially cute when they are babies with their white spots.
ReplyDeleteDeer are cute but even the does can be angry. I've been snorted, stomped at, and almost chased while taking my 100lb scaredy-dog out for a potty break.
ReplyDeleteOh Deer! I love this fabric! lol
ReplyDeleteDoes that count?
Did you know deer can become a thundering herd!? We've walked over a hill on our place in the country and startled a grazing herd, and when they run, it's like a buffalo stampede!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing deer in the forest. But I don't like it when the bolt across the highway.
ReplyDeleteThe other day I saw a mother deer and her fawn in the yard. The fawn was the size of a large dog. It was a pretty sight to see them running together.
ReplyDeleteI love Bambi's and this giveaway is a must in any collection. I collect fabric w/owls.
ReplyDeleteWe have deer pass through our back yard every once in a while...and it's always a big deal yelling for the kids to come see the deer!
ReplyDeleteIf the herd of deer that lives at my house isn't eating my shrubs and flowers in the front yard, they are sleeping in the woods behind my house. I am starting to see the babies with the spots.
ReplyDeleteMy parents used to take us to see santas deer at the north pole, aka pennsylvania lol
ReplyDeleteI love deer but I worry about them running across roads! I used to live in the country in Pennsylvania and we really had deer. I would buy large bags of apples and lob them into the woods for the deer to eat. Sometimes we'd get 20 to 25 deer in our backyard eating those apples. I wish they'd stay away from roads and interstates though.
ReplyDeleteI love this fabric. There are some babies coming in the family and this would be absolutely WONDERFUL!
ReplyDeleteDeer are brave creatures crossing roads at any given moment when a car is just inches away. I had a couple close encounters while living in AZ. Yes AZ of all places;)
ReplyDeletegrowing up my dad had a salt lick int he backyard...amazed me how quickly the deer went thru it...this fabric us cuteness overload
ReplyDeleteDear oh deer...we rarely see a deer where I live Downunder...have to travel to see them. I would love to see them in the US woods though!
ReplyDeleteI Aunt hit a Deer in Georgia. I couldn't believe the amount of damage it did. But after I hit a cat or raccoon in Miami, I understood.
ReplyDeleteI see alot of deer here where I live in NZ. They run wild on the farm
ReplyDeleteI like Bambi and this almost looks like him!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I'd love to make a little one's quilt from this fabric. Thanks for the chance. We once had a 7 lb yorkie/cairn mix dog and we let him out in the back yard for the "bedtime business" . Well, 2 deer were standing in the meadow and he took off after them and chased them out of HIS yard. Pretty funny- he thought he was a German Shepherd!
ReplyDeleteDoe a Deer is from one of my favorite movies, The Sound of Music. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI live not too far away from a large country house where deer walk freely around. You have to watch where you walk though!
ReplyDeleteDeer are good luck for me. When I thought I was going to lose a pregnancy I saw 2 deer standing in a field. We were on our way home from the hospital and I took it as a good sign that my baby was going to make it and she's 26 years old now!
ReplyDeleteThe deer on the fabric is really cute... much cuter there then in front of my car... thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteOh Dear! I love deer! My husband tries to hunt for deer but they dearly love to elude him!
ReplyDeleteWe have a little animal parc just around the corner with a lot of deers. It is our favourite short walk to pass through there and look at all the deers!
ReplyDelete2 weeks ago, on a 7-mile run, my husband and I saw a deer standing at the side of the trail. It was pretty shocked to see us! I think I could have petted it.
ReplyDeleteI think deer are beautiful to look at ... years ago my aunt & uncle had a salt lick at the back of their yard ... so neat to watch them cautiously come & enjoy. :) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy that my hubby enjoys deer hunting, but never shoots anything!! lol
ReplyDeleteHe is color-blind and can't see the deer until they are moving..which means it's too late...
One day when I was young we looked outside to find about 100 deer in our back yard. We were so shocked to see the congregation that we never even thought to grab a camera until about half of them left. People are still in shock when we show the picture. Then when we tell them there were even more they cannot believe it!
ReplyDeleteI love this fabric! It is so cute even the skunks! :) We have lots of deer that live on our property. Most of them have lived here for awhile since they know it is safe and we don't hunt them. It is so pretty to see them early in the morning or at dusk out by our pond.
ReplyDeleteI have a cabin in northern Wisconsin. The deer there are plentiful and come through our yard often while out feeding. I think the deer on the fabric are cuter! Thanks for the chance to win it. jmniffer at comcast dot net
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! We have deer on our property that we love to look at.
ReplyDeleteThere is a three legged deer in our neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteWe always have lots of deer at the start of hunting season because they know that no hunting is allowed in our neighborhood! Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteA few years back there was a deer lying under a tree in our backyard. We thought it was giving birth. When we called the local wildlife service they came and quickly informed us that it had actualy been hit by a car and needed to be put down. I can't tell you how disappointed my kids were when they were no longer allowed to watch from the window of the deer giving birth and trying to explain the gunshot a few minutes later was interesting. Yes, my children are firm believers that deer get to go to heaven as well.
ReplyDeleteDeer: I do wish the deer would stop eating my blueberry bushes!
ReplyDeleteOh my deer... what should I say????

As a librarian, when you say deer, I say Bambi:) Love the design name, doohickey designs.Have a great Thursday!
ReplyDeleteYou probably won't like my comment about deer ;-D We love venison, so deer are very dear to us ;-)
ReplyDeleteDeer are elegant and beautiful animals. I live at the base of a mountain and we see the deer trotting through the neighborhood all winter, spring and fall. They love tulips, which are highly nutritious. They won't eat daffodils as they are poisonous. Occasionally, a cougar follows the deer down the mountainside. Then things get really interesting.
ReplyDeleteOnce, when I was driving in Scotland, a deer jumped from the hillside on to the top of my car and ran away! I don't think it was hurt at all but I had a terrible time explaining why I had a dent in the roof when I took the rental car back. Thanks for the chance.

just the other day I saw a young deer scared silly in someones front yard in the middle of suburbia :(
ReplyDeleteEven though we live in a neighborhood with houses close together, we still get the occasional visit from a couple of deer....they like huge apple tree in my yard.
ReplyDeleteI too live in the middle of a neighborhood full of deer. 2 springs ago I was sipping coffee on my deck and saw the FATTEST deer I'd ever seen -- I assumed SHE was ready to pop any day. The next morning my neighbor called me over to his backyard and pointed to a little thicket. It took me a full minute to focus on the cutest little fawn - sooo well camaflaged!! I love living here!
ReplyDeleteThat little deer would look fantastic in my I spy quilt! I would love to be lucky enough to win this beautiful fabric.. I have oooh'ed and ahhh'ed over it for a while now. It is just sooo cute!
ReplyDeleteThe fabrics are beautiful. When I was living in the Northeast, we had a small garden and our backyard leads into the woods. Very early one morning I looked out my window and what did I see? A mother deer standing at the edge of our yard watching as her baby was eating the broccoli from our garden.
ReplyDeleteKinda silly, but last week 2 baby (twin) deer were born right outside my OBGYN's office! I thought.. smart mama... if she needed help... they might be able to help her!
ReplyDeletedeer have eaten the lettuces in my garden. hmph. they're pretty though.

So, we live out in the country, but almost never see deer on our property because of all of the local farmers etc... But this spring I was coming around the bend in our driveway to take the kids to school and then BAM...this white tail doe hops right out in front of us through the pine trees and off she went. I was so surprised I never even slowed down!
ReplyDeleteI think it's too hot right now for deer to live in Alabama. Cute fabric!
ReplyDeleteDeer are my biggest fear on mountain roads, but they are sort of cute.
ReplyDeleteDeer are fun to look at until they are darting in front of your car! Laughed when you said "yep, skunks can be sweet". We were watching Bambi the other night and this made me think of the skunk Bambi named Flower, and it was sweet!
ReplyDeleteOh 'deer' what to say about 'deer' - hmmmm! When we travel to Northern AZ it's not unusual to see deer standing slightly off the road. Growing up on a rand in South Texas we saw many, many deer running through fields and jumping barbed wire fences. Such a graceful creature!
ReplyDeleteKeeping my fingers crossed - this line is adorable.
I do not recommend googling "jokes about deers". :)
ReplyDeleteEven though live near a big city, there is a forest preserve very near our home and we often see deer. We need to be careful as they cross well traveled road. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOne Christmas Eve my nieces were trying their best NOT to go to sleep. They were going to prove that night that Santa wasn't real. My sister was trying everything she could to get them to go to bed. Finally at one point someone looked out the window and saw a couple of deer in the front yard. They yelled "Santa's reindeer are in the yard!" The girls saw them and FREAKED--running to bed as fast as they could so Santa could deliver their presents. That year they were still believers...
ReplyDeleteWe have hundreds of deer around here. I like to see them but they really do a number on my garden :(
ReplyDeleteSince I am a city gal, a deer sighting is very dear. My idea of a great vacation spot is one where the deer come out of the woods in the morning and visit while you sip your morning coffee. I could sit and sew and watch these graceful creatures for hours. This fabric line is sew cute. Perfect for a youthful snuggle quilt ... :) Pat
ReplyDeleteI just saw a deer yesterday!
ReplyDeletedeers are so cute! And, so are most other critters including skunks! I'd just as soon stay far away from most though. :-)
ReplyDeleteMy mom has 6 deer that visit nearly every day in her backyard.
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to try a ric rac quilt. Perfect little fabric line to try it out with! Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have deer around where I live but when we are travelling southward, it is always a thrill for our family to spot them. Thanks for this sweet giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy first dog as a child was a rescued miniature fox terrier. We named him Bambi, He looked like a baby deer to us. Thanks for the great giveaway! ;>
ReplyDeleteMy commute takes me past quite a few fields and I love to see the deer in the mornings, especially when the young ones are out. I have a new grandchild on the way so I've been looking for ideas for a quilt (or 2). This would make a great baby quilt.
ReplyDeletei still get excited every time i see a deer, and i live in a mountainous area.
ReplyDeleteLove this fabric! A deer story...once my sister had a deer try to jump over her car as she was driving down the road. Too bad for both of them that it didn't quite make it. It ended up doing a tap dance on the roof of her car before bounding off into the forest. This is just one of several strange mishaps my sister endured in that particular car.
ReplyDeleteI love deer--especially when they are made into chili. Otherwise they are very pretty.
ReplyDeleteI agree, deer are cute. And they're awfully quiet and sneaky!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute giveaway! I love the colors in the fabric. I am having problems signing in - my email is cook_karen@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteThanks
We once lived in a house that was surrounded by woods. My husband fed the deer so that he could watch them come and feed. One year we had a mama deer with twin babies move in! She was injured and limped badly and when she first came was gaunt, obviously having problems getting food. My the time those babies were grown she was as fat as a butterfall on the corn my husband was putting out for her. :) blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteWe have tons of deer here in North Texas! And here is one of my favorite moments that I've managed to catch.

Dear Deer: You are super cute especially little Bambi, but please stay out of my garden this year. Please save some carrots for me...
ReplyDeleteDeer as in Bambi. I grew up with Disney and still love them even today. By the way, the sequel to Cars is coming out anytime now (can't remember the date though).
ReplyDeleteWe have a lot of deer in our backyard because our house is set into a mountainside. One morning, we watched our Yorkie playing tag with a fawn. It was one of the sweetest things I have ever seen!
ReplyDeleteWe saw 18 deer the other day on our morning run. btw your graduate is gorgeous. I'm having trouble leaving a comment so here's my e-mail:

I love to see the deer around my house, but they can be quite hard on local gardens. High fences are in order.
ReplyDeleteWe feed the deer all year round. This week a doe and her little fawn showed up for breakfast...she had labored all day sitting on the grass in our backyard the day before!
ReplyDeleteAfter living in Hadlyme, CT I tend to associate deer with the Lyme's disease tick.

we recently went camping and I was able to enjoy the deer feeding not far from our site. it was so amazing! I can't wait to go back and just sit in silence and enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteI love this fabric,so cute and girly colors,perfect for my daughter =o).My favorite deer is all time Bambi,watching him as a kid,put stickers in album,reading the book,and now sharing that love with my daughter.It is so lovely that some things are eternal.Lovely giveaway.
ReplyDeleteThat deer is so cute...vintage looking but fresh too!
ReplyDeleteI don't think we have any deer in the deserts of Southern Utah, but remember just stopping in the middle of the street with my mouth hanging open to watch hundreds, at dusk eating the corn after they had plowed the fields in my Illinois town.
FOR ME IT IS WHITETAILS NIBBLING ON MY LILACS-IT IS A LOVE-HATE RELATIONSHIP WE HAVE-HA! THANKS SO FOR SHARING SOME NEW FABRICS!

Deer = the second word my son said (after momma) and the reason why my husband leaves me every fall/ winter!!!
ReplyDeleteWhen we go to early church there are tons of deer all over the grounds surrounding. Turkeys too. Its funny since we live in a suburb, but the church is off on its own hill and my kids love seeing them all.
ReplyDeleteDeer have the most beautiful eyes!
ReplyDeleteWhat cute big ears the deer has!
ReplyDeleteWe have deer in our yard during the winter. It's one of the highlights of the year. They are such majestic animals.
ReplyDeleteDeer are yummy! haha. I'm from a family that hunts and married into a family that hunts even more. Until recently we had a freezer full of deer sausage. SO delicious!
ReplyDeleteWe live in the city but yet we have seen deer from time to time. Kind of an amazing site when you aren't prepared to see them.
ReplyDeleteI have mixed feelings about deers living in AL. I have had 3 accidents that involve a deer running out in front of my car. On the other hand I have a fond memory of visiting Glacier national Park and seeing them lying calmly in the snow.
ReplyDeleteVery, very, very cute!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in elementary school I won a local art contest, and got to choose a fancy animated print. I chose Bambi!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway. When I was visiting my parents a few months ago in NJ, I glanced out the window and saw a small herd of deer lunching on her neighbors flowers. This is in the middle of suburbia - quite surprising.
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely, but if you like to garden, they are pests. Wish I had one in the freezer.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 16 I hit two deer at the same time with my car years. No injury or damage to my car but the deer didn't do so well. :o(
ReplyDeleteI love deer meat & they are so beautiful to watch.
Deer in CA are very very small. They look like babies :)
ReplyDeleteI live in Victoria, BC. Canada and you can find deer all over the city. They are small but can be very destructive to the urban landscape. Too bad they are so cute!
ReplyDeleteWe once rescued a newborn baby deer from the middle of the road. It still had the umbilical cord attached, and we got to hold it and love on it until wildlife rescue came to pick it up. So sweet!
ReplyDeletemdpntemp (at) hotmail (dot) com
Deer freely roam our farm -- and right now they are eating up the peas and corn in our family garden -- grrr -- guess have to take the attitude that we are feeding what will become our venison in the fall
ReplyDeleteStill they are pretty on the fabric prize
I love deer. I watch them from my kitchen window. I'm on the lookout for the wee spotted fawns. Unbearably cute.
ReplyDeleteWhen I think on deer I think in Bambi and Rudolph the Red Nose Deer!!!!, the fabric's so stinking cute-adorable-lovely...
ReplyDeletein spokane where i used to live, the deer would come right up to your window at night and eat grass. It would be cool to look out and have then 2 to 3 feet away from you, and they would not run away because usually they could not see you.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite memory of deer is watching the doe and their fawns come through my mother's yard every morning and every night on their way to and from the Ashokan Resevoir, where they would go to drink. They would come right up to the patio in the Spring to show off their new babies!
ReplyDeleteWe were camping a few weeks ago and a boy (probably about 10 years old) came running through our camp. He stopped long enough to say "Excuse me sir, but I think I'm being chased by a deer." Sure enough, about one minute later, a deer came prancing through our camp. Luckily, he turned and went the opposite direction from the boy. Poor kid! I bet it was scary to have a deer chasing after him! There were a lot of deer around our campsite that night.
ReplyDeleteDeer scare me when they jump out into the road :( But there are a lot near our house and night, and they are adorable on this fabric!
ReplyDeleteOne summer my husband was playing capture the flag in the dark with some youth in the sand dunes off the beach. Suddenly a deer sprang up in front of him. I'm not sure who was more started--my husband or the deer!
ReplyDeleteThese deer are dear.
ReplyDeletePlease enter me here.
Was just looking at my friends vacation photos of the Sequoias. they saw lots of bears and a few beautiful deer. I am leaving in about a week for Montana and Idaho, where AI suspect that I will see a few as well!

My family couldn't believe it the year we had a whole group of deer standing on top of our frozen pool. Quite a sight! I also remember the time our family cat was in a stand-off with several deer. The deer were MAD and stomping their hooves, but she just kept hissing at them. Maybe she thought she was a guard dog...? :) Fond memories of childhood!
ReplyDeleteForest creatures are my friends... especially looking so cute on fabric. :) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteDeer, where I am from are sometimes more a nuisance than "cute". They eat the corn, trample the hay and break through fences...I have had accidents as have friends, when deer pop out onto the road when you least expect it. I like to see them from afar...they are afterall one of God's creations, and he doesn't make mistakes.
ReplyDeleteEvery Friday morning on the way to our Homescgool co-op our favorite activity is to watch for deer on the NASA property we pass.
ReplyDeleteMy husband takes our daughter shining for deer almost every weekend. It's great to see them bonding over something so simple :)
ReplyDeletemelisskaatz at gmail dot com
I love to garden so I am glad we don't have any "deer" here!
ReplyDeleteWhen growing up on a farm in IA we saw deer many times in the evenings while playing outside. They would roam up and down the fields, looking for leftover corn. I love this fabric, thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteOh deer... I forgot what I was going to say. Doe!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! Ummm, something about deer. i don't like deer. They feast in my garden. ;)
ReplyDeleteMy kiddos love visiting their Grandparents, because they have deer in their backyard all the time! They're so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI like deer, especially when they stay in the woods. I once hit a deer who ran into my car. Poor deer. I cried and cried.
ReplyDeleteOh dear, all I can do is offer a bad joke with a terrible pun:
ReplyDeleteKnock knock,
Who's there?
Rain
Rain who?
Please let me in out of the rain dear.
Thanks for the chance!
I laugh as Dad is constantly using products to keep deer from eating his plants.
ReplyDeleteDid you know that deer love petunia blossoms... To eat that is?! They sure do, I've seen it myself, right by our front door! They will also drink water from a fountain that's right in front of a house with people looking out the windows at them! We love living in the "country"!
ReplyDeleteNot what you may want to hear but they sure are tasty!
ReplyDeleteWhen driving one day I hit a pothole. My son in the back seat said "oh no, Mom hit deer again!"
ReplyDeleteI cracked up laughing.
Oh dear me... what to say? My daughter saw a newborn fawn curled up and sleeping last weekend on her horseback trail ride!
ReplyDeletethanks!
Best deer I ever saw were leaping over 5 foot snow drifts the day AFTER Christmas - I was about 10 and was convinced they were Santa's reindeer enjoying the day off.
ReplyDeleteCan you believe in my previous life I was a deer hunter??? I can hardly believe it and can't even imagine doing it any more! I oooed and awed over a fawn I saw along side the road yesterday.
ReplyDeleteSooo cute! Hmmm... Deer? I love Bambi? Does that count? lol!
ReplyDeleteBambi makes me cry- haven't watched it in ages cause of that!
ReplyDeleteDeer are beautiful animals. My husband and son are hunters, so we always have venison in our freezer. My dad was also a hunter, so I grew up on venison. I know that many think that hunting them is wrong, but it is needed to prevent over population.
ReplyDeleteLet's see...sometimes we see deer in my grandfather's backyard when we visit.
ReplyDeleteMy husband comes from a long line of deer hunters. Venison was our main protein thru college and medical school. Now I don't care for it as much but we still bottle, jerky and make deer burger out of what he and the boys hunt.
ReplyDeleteDeer! just found three hosta nibbled to the quick this morning! They may be pretty bounding away, but I sure don't like them in my yard.
ReplyDeleteDeer remind me of Alaska, how I wish I could go back to that time in my life.
ReplyDeleteoh my! deer are beautiful creatures, so majestic! i have a few cross-stitched pics of deer, of course i had to "hunt" for the perfect charts LOL the little deer in the pink hoos in the forest would make an adorable quilt and yes, i think perfect in the ric-rac pattern!
ReplyDeletethank you for the generous give-away!

We have deer that frequently visit at our cabin in the mountains. Now to only learn how to garden with plants that they don't care for. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOSH...I am in LOVE!! That fabric is very very CUTE!!
ReplyDeleteWe have deer farms at Cape Jervis in South Australia! That's the closest deer I have. Beautiful fabric.
ReplyDeleteWhen I go and babysit the grands, we watch the deer feed near their pond. They are such pretty little things. I don't know how anyone could shoot them.
ReplyDeleteWe do not see alot of deer around here, only up in the forests even then they can be scarce. I remember we saw a gorgeous deer in Scotland bouncing and leaping over huge puddles of water after alot of rain, very idylic!
ReplyDeleteOh Bambi is my favorite. When my nephew would come over for a visit with his auntie, we would curl up on the bed and watch. He was 2 at the time, but claims he still remembers it now while he is 17! How sweet!
ReplyDelete
