I'm torn with Lady A and Florida Georgia Line. They are both amazing!! Thanks for the chance!!

Mini Grand Prize (both autographed books and a $15 iTunes gift card):
I love country music - Billy Currington and Keith Urban

Signed copy of Kitchen Stitches:
I am a Big fan of Micheal Buble ! I listen to Pandora while I am sewing :-D My guess for you would be Blake Shelton
I enjoyed the rest of your show pictures. What a beauty of a quilt. I think you would enjoy the eagles. I wasn't a big fan when they were very popular but have since become one.

Signed copy of Seamingly Scrappy:
38 Special is a great band to listen to when I am quilting an E2E pattern so I can just rock out to the music - makes for a fast quilt!!!
Pink Floyd

Congrats to all of the winners. You have until the end of the week to send me your snail mail address to claim your prize before I choose a new winner. If you didn't get an e-mail from me, there wasn't an e-mail address left or you are set up as a no reply. E-mail me your information to rubybluequilts (at) gmail (dot) com.

And since this was so much fun, I wanted to share with you which music you guessed that I listen to, the music you guessed I don't listen to, and some of my other personal favorites.

Let's get started with the correct guesses. These play either on my Pandora, my CDs, my MP3s, the radio, or you may find me dancing to them in public given the chance:
Luke Bryan (I'm actually seeing him in concert this summer)
Colbie Callait
Michael Buble
Led Zeppelin
Lady Antebellum
38 Special
Billy Currington
Keith Urban
Metallica
Jason Aldean (I'm going to see him too)
Dierks Bentley
Air Supply
The Beatles
Straight No Chaser
Martina McBride
Journey
Chicago
Jim Brickman
Taylor Swift (yes, kinda sorta still)
Kenny Chesney
Tim McGraw
The Band Perry
Miranda Lambert (seeing her with Jason Aldean!)
Blake Shelton
CCR
Heart
Florida Georgia Line (seeing them with Jason too, it's gonna be a great concert)
Richard Marks

So that didn't leave many guesses that I don't listen to. That left:
Natalie McMaster
the Rankin Family
Enya
Springsteen (hate me if you must)
Toby Keith (not a big fan)
Pink Floyd
Mumford and Sons
Jack Johnson
the Stones
Tiffany Alvord
Ray Charles
Rockapella
Eagles (again, hate me if you must)
Kaiser Chiefs
John Williams
Hank Williams Jr.
Fleetwood Mac
Barbara Streisand
Neal Sedaka
James Taylor
Beach Boys (however I grew up listening to 45s on my grandparents jukebox, they're just not in my current playlist)
George Strait
Rod Stewart
Benny Goodman
Trisha Yearwood
Barry Manilow
Cher
Elton John

Okay, maybe now that I see it all in a list, there may have been more that I don't listen to. And trust me, I may not dislike their music, but it's not something I regularly seek out and listen to.

And now for the odd balls. Here's some music I listen to all the time that may surprise you:
Pentatonix
Lindsey Stirling (seriously, check her out, she's AMAZING)
Korn
Slipknot
Mushroomhead
Disturbed
Nat King Cole
JANET JACKSON (enough said)
Staind
Brantley Gilbert
Colt Ford
Bruno Mars
Daughtry
Linkin Park
Incubus
Ingrid Michaelson
Justin Moore
Katy Perry
30 Seconds to Mars
Kelly Clarkson
One Republic
Rascal Flatts
Sara Bareilles
SHeDAISY
Theory of a Deadman
Zac Brown Band
Styx
Jake Owen
Boston
Toto
Kansas
Frank Sinatra
And many many more! 

So as you can see I like my rock, especially hard rock (it helps to quilt faster), some country (which is what I grew up on...), some 80's (but when you're a child of the 80's...) some 70's rock (when your parents grew up in that era...), and some classics. Probably not the music you had in mind. Or atleast some of them. I just looked and between my Hubby and I we have 254 different artists in our iPods... That's not including the stacks of CDs we still have :)

But thanks for stopping by if you're still reading this and if there's anything else you think I should listen to, please share! Have a great day and congrats to the winners again!

  4. There are a couple of artists I didn't see on your list:
    The Rollingstones and Pharrell Williams
    I am sure you have listened to the Rollingstones but not sure if you have listened to Pharrell Williams. You should listen to the song "Happy". His song makes me happy and I am sure it will have the same effect on you.
