I think my favorite Christmas song is I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas.. although I have had my fill of snow.. and don't care if I see it.. a little on Christmas is more than enough for me. It is the memory of my parents singing the song that makes it special to me.

I LOVE all Christmas songs by Perry Como, but if I were to chose just one Christmas song as my favorite, it would be Oh Holy Night (I like most artistst's versions).
Just one song Gwen? "I love Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas" too but also..."Oh Holy Night", "Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire"... and so many more that every time I hear them I say..."That's the song...." until I hear another. I am way too nostalgic at Christmas!!
Hmm... I LOVE anything Bing Crosby! But Oh Holy Night is definitely one of my fav's! : )
Favorite Christmas song.....hmmmm. Silent Night. Thanks for the giveaway! I've been subscribed to your blog via google reader for a while now, but also just clicked on the friend connect for good measure!
Ooh, delicious fabric! I love Christmas music... so hard to choose just one!
Currently (because it's a Christmas song that I listen to year round, no joke), my favorite is I Heard The Bells on Christmas Day by Casting Crowns. You should listen to it, because it will change your life. Probably. :)
Runners up are Pine Cones and Holly Berries (It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas) and Oh Holy Night.
How's that for a long answer to a short question? :) I am getting excited for Christmas!!
I actually have a whole Christmas album favorite. It's the Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton album. Brings back childhood memories because my parents always played it. On a record player, no less! :D
Thanks for the opportunity to win! And CONGRATS on reaching 1000!! That's a serious accomplishment!!
i am a follower and I have many favorite holiday songs but I love Silent Night!
Thank-you Gwen and congratulations for reaching the 1000 followers mark. That is a mighty fine tally. I love listening to White Christmas over the season. Never had one but would like to...someday!
My fav is Baby, It's Cold Outside, Dean Martin...Thanks, love your blog.
It's tough to pick a favorite, but I really love when "Carol of the Bells" comes on the radio. :)
I can see why your DD doesn't want you to give it away---how fun! I have too many favorite Christmas songs to pick just one, though! Silent Night for traditional; the Christmas song that Transiberian Orchestra plays for contemporary! Thanks, Gwen, for the chance to win!
My all time favorite is Little Drummer Boy!! Thanks for this sweet giveaway!
I am a follower
and my favorite christmas song is not exactly christmas but winter holiday "the gift "on jim brickmans album
I don't even know why, it's so not my style but my favourite Christmas song is 'All I want for Christmas', Mariah Carey. Shocking but it makes me smile :)
Thanks for the giveaway I'm a happy dedicated follower!
Picking a favorite Christmas song is hard, but I think I'd say Feliz Navidad as it reminds me of growing up as we lived in south texas and I was one of the few non hispanics.
I love Mariah Carey's All I want for Christmas is you! Gets me up and dancing every time!
I subscribe to you through google reader ;o)
Rocking around the christmas tree is my fav! This fabric is so cute! Hope I win!
COngrats on 1000! and what a wonderful way to celebrate it :) My favorite Christmas song is White Christmas and I do mean the original version by Bing Crosby. Its not Christmas until I've watched the movie and gotten shivers as Bing sings away :)
My favorite is WInter Wonderland!
O little town of Bethlehem!
Clay Aiken - Mary Did You Know? Minor key - love it!
I love all Christmas songs! I didn't celebrate Christmas growing up so it is truly a magical time for me now. I LOVE everything about it. And I just had my third child this year, and now we don't have coordinating stockings, and I've been thinking about making some :)
I love all kinds of Christmas songs, but I think the Little Drummer Boy duet with David Bowie and Bing Crosby is my favorite!
xoxo,
Amy

I love Judy Garland. :) Okay, favorite Christmas song would have to be O Come O Come Emmanuel. It's just such a sweet melody. I also heard a carol of the bells/raindrops on roses (yes from Sound of Music) combo once and LOVED it!

Thanks Gwenny for the chance to win this adorable fabric. My all time favorite Christmas song is "Carol of the Bells", especially by Manheim Steamroller.
Definately O'holy Night. I have loved that for years! Congrats on hitting the 1000 followers! That's awesome
deanaspice@yahoo.ca
I love any of the xmas songs sung by the Carpenters....I know I'm showing my age, but they just sang everything so great! I also love the Judds singing O Holy Night.....gives me chills! I really love all Christmas carols and songs....and I love that they are already playing them in the stores! Makes me happy! I'd much rather hear carols than the normal loud/annoying music they usually play.
Thanks for the giveaways....we love that! And congrats on your 1000 followers! Woohoo!
"I Wonder as I Wander" sounds rather medieval to me. But I also love modern things, like this lovely fabric!
My favorite Christmas song is "Away in the Manger." Thanks for a chance to win. bimbi9 at verizon dot net
It's hard to pick a favorite, but one of my favorites since childhood is Angels We Have Heard On High. I'm a new follower. Thanks for hosting the great giveaway!
Congratulations on reaching 1000 followers! What an achievement. I'm a new follower, I think #1033. hehe. Oh there are so many good Christmas songs out there. I'm going to say Little Drummer Boy, at least I think that is the name.
Thanks for such a great giveaway and a chance to win. Great Christmas fabric!!

Congratulations on all the followers, wow!! My favorite song for christmas, for now, is White Christmas, but it will inevitably change as the time grows nearer! Thanks for the giveaway.
Love love love love LOVE! This is a tough decision, but the first song that came to me was "Santa, Baby" cause it's just so fun!
Ashleyw0201@gmail.com
Thanks for the chance - that fabric is so cute! I absolutely love the John Denver and the Muppets Christmas album (a little corny, but so fun) - it's hard to pick one from there! My other favorite is the much more traditional The Holly and the Ivy.
Congrats on the milestone!!! And I love all versions of "Santa Baby" and "Baby, It's Cold Outside".
Some how singing Little drummer Boy calms down my now 19 month old for bedtime. So that has to be my favorite.
Yea for 1000 followers! Woo Hoo!

Congratulations on reaching such a great number of followers.

What Child is This is my favorite. I don't blame your daughter at all for not wanting you to give this away. For my quilt club we are supposed to get all of our ugly fabrics, put them in a brown paper bag and have an exchange at club. Suddenly my fabrics aren't so ugly to me anymore. I get too attached.
What adorable fabric!! New follower...found you thru Maureen.
My favorite song is Baby it's cold Outside and the old version...none of the new "pop" sounding ones!
Thanks for hosting such a lovely giveaway!

I have always loved Little Drummer Boy - but lately Carol of the Bells has been one of my favorites - my daughter plays it with her classical guitar group and I love it! This year she is also learning it for band on her flute and piccolo.
I giggled when I read your entry requirement, because as soon as I saw the picture of the fabric, I started hearing, "It's beginning to look a lot like Christ-mas!" in my head. Despite that, Silent Night and O Come All Ye Faithful are tied for my favourite Christmas song.
My favorite Christmas song is Silent Night, congrats on 1000 followers and a wonderful giveaway!
My favorite Christmas song is Joy to the World!
Away in a Manger tops my list!

Before I met my husband, I was kind of a grinch, not caring much for the holidays. Since marrying him and having kids I've starting enjoying it more. He has me listening to holiday music already! I enjoy All I want for x-mas is you by Mariah Carey. So upbeat and fun.
I love the BNL/Sarah McLachlan version of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
I'm dreaming of a white christmas--Bing Crosby. Hands down my favorite, also a big fan of Nat King Cole singing Christmas songs.
I love all christmas songs, but Silent Night is probably my favorite
I love Christmas fabric!!! My fave is "I'm Dreaming of A White Christmas" By Bing Crosby. Classic Christmas Perfection.
All I want for Christmas, by Mariah Carey Thanks for having this great Give Away!!
Huggs, Nancy
Silent Night classical version :)

O holy night for sure! I love the Josh groban version. Thanks for the giveaway!
