My favorite Anne or RTA quote???? There are SO MANY but I'll go with a funny RTA one-- "Well, I'd like to fly and spit diamonds, but that don't make it so."
ReplyDeleteOn the Sullivan store, my hands-down favorite item would have to be Anne Shirley's Rust-Colored Cameo Brooch (http://shopatsullivan.com/vintage-fashion/anne-shirley-s-triple-strand-pearl-necklace-earrings-10.html) but there are so many others to pick from too... I could browse that store all day. If I had a bottomless wallet. :P
ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome giveaway! I have so many favorite quotes both from the movie and the books...“It's not what the world holds for you. It's what you bring to it." and I also love, “I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorites is "Tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it yet" :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing on the Sullivan Store is the Anne of Green Gables movie set...ahhh I love those movies!
ReplyDeleteFavorite "Anne" quote....Is it possible to narrow it down to one?! ;) I love, "I don't want sunbursts or marble halls. I just want YOU." *nod* That one's pretty great.
ReplyDeleteThe fashion week sounds like fun!!
ReplyDeleteDoes that mean that the wrong person could be the right person, but, but you've met him at the wrong time? Or is the wrong person always the wrong person even if you meet him at the right time? Or, or is the wrong person the right person because he makes you see that the right person is the wrong person?
ReplyDeleteFelicity King (my favorite on the show btw) :)
My favorite quote exchange:
ReplyDeleteMarilla - "What is to be, will be."
Mrs. Rachel Lynde - "And what isn't to be sometimes happens!"
Ooh....hard to pick just one quote, but here's one of my top faves.
ReplyDelete"Kindred spirits are not so scarce as I used to think. It's splendid to find out there are so many of them in the world."
I love Anne quotes so much, it's hard to choose a favorite! One of mine, though, is this: “It's been my experience that you can nearly always enjoy things if you make up your mind firmly that you will.”
ReplyDeleteI like the fitted blue jacket in vintage fashions.
ReplyDelete"Tomorrow is always fresh , with no mistakes in it", is probably my favorite quote!
ReplyDeleteI like the Joy Music box, and the Anne Shirley fragrance perfume. :)
ReplyDeleteI'd have to say "Tomorrow is always fresh, with no mistakes in it" also. =)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing... I think the Anne's Theme sheet music. That would be so fun to learn.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite quotes is: "I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers."
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have the Avonlea Cookbook. It would be so much fun to try some recipes out of that.
ReplyDeleteHaving been raised on both the Anne movies and RTA, there are so many quotes that my siblings and I will often exchange with each other. One of many favorites is when Jasper and Oliva attempt to elope and Aunt Hetty finds herself stuttering instead of Jasper, and Jasper finds himself completing the word when it is often times the other way around:
ReplyDelete"Oliva King, as I live and breathe you were about to E-e-e-e-e…"
"Elope."
'I am so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.'
ReplyDeleteFavorite... quote...
ReplyDelete*extremely concerned facial expression*
Um.
From Anne OR RTA. Riiiight. Well, in honor of the giveaway I'll limit myself to RTA... but do you know how much I quote RTA? Favorite quote is impossible. So... random quote that makes me laugh.
"The only thing sillier than a girl making goo-goo eyes at some old geezer." ~Rachel Lynde
Favorite quote? What an impossible question to answer! Haha...but I do love "I"m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers" :)
ReplyDeleteFavorite quote - when Gilbert tells Anne, "I've loved you as long as I can remember. I need you." {{{swoon}}}
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome giveaway!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite quotes has to be from Road to Avonlea, when Mrs. Lynde says, "There's nothing worse than the convalescing male."
The original AOGG soundtrack - I've been wanting to own that for a while now! They have so many cool things on their site....movie stills, furniture, and more. :)
ReplyDeleteI have my own Anne doll that my mother got me years ago but I know my daughters would love to have their very own Anne dolls! http://shopatsullivan.com/anne-of-green-gables-a-new-beginning-12-movie-doll.html
ReplyDeleteAnne's dramatic tendency and colorful personification is probably one of the reasons I love her so much! --- "My life is a perfect graveyard of buried hopes" ---

ReplyDelete: Open Collar jacket
:Brimless cloche hat
:White Beret with netting
:Summer lace dress

ReplyDeleteArielle
I love this plaque for the wall!!
ReplyDeletehttp://shopatsullivan.com/wall-hangings/what-the-world-holds-plaque.html
This exchange will never fail to amuse me:
ReplyDeleteDiana: Just say one word and tell me if you're killed!
Anne : No but I think I've been rendered unconscious.
and my favorite thing in the store would probably be the Anne of Green Gables dvd set. I desperately need to get it!
ReplyDeleteI have so many favorite quotes but the first thing that came to mind was in the last season of RTA:
ReplyDeleteFelicity: ...and whether you can see or not, I will marry you as I should have the first time you proposed.
Gus' reply after a few moments: If that's a proposal, I except.
Oh, and one more, just for fun (again, last season of RTA):
Hetty: Oh no, no, no, no, no. You see, the piano is for the enjoyment of our guests!
Betty Blaine: What are we? Gefilte fish?
Hey Ashley. Just wanted to say that I made a huge mistake when I entered this giveaway! I didn't realize that my mom had been on this computer lately and so it was her "login" that I was using on the rafflecopter. How do I fix that little problem? Do I just enter all over again, and re-enter my links and such??? Sorry!
DeleteOh, dear! I suppose you could enter all over again & let me know what your mom's login was. Or, you could just email. What ever works best for you. :)
DeleteSorry it's taken so long to get back to this. I know the contest is over right now but I thought I'd let you know that my mom's login would be under the name Missy. I don't really know if this matters anymore, but I thought I'd let you know anyway. So sorry for the trouble.
DeleteMy favorite quote? Hmmm... I have so many! I'll go with one from Anne of Green Gables that gets repeated a lot in my house:
ReplyDelete"Plumb puffs can not minister to a mind disease, and a world that's crumbled in to pieces."
She's so dramatic! Thanks for the chance to win!
-Marianne
Wow. There's a lot of neat things in that store! I only had time to look in the Fashion section but my favorite item was the "pretty pearl dress" so beautiful! Again thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDelete-Marianne
I think my favorite items from the Sullivan Store would be the Anne of Green Gables Movies, The Road to Avonlea Complete series, and the pattern for Anne's Wedding Dress.

ReplyDeleteRoad to Avonlea: "When your heart skips a beat, it isn't love it's indigestion." --Mrs. Lynde
Anne of Green Gables: “Why must people kneel down to pray? If I really wanted to pray I’ll tell you what I'd do. I'd go out into a great big field all alone or in the deep, deep woods and I'd look up into the sky—up—up—up—into that lovely blue sky that looks as if there was no end to its blueness. And then I'd just feel a prayer.”
<3
Favorite things at Sullivan: the dresses, that awesome "country kitchen wall phone", and of course...the movies. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to choose just one!
ReplyDeleteBut here's a great from RTA:
"When your heart skips a beat, it isn't love, it's indigestion."

ReplyDelete"Road to Avonlea" and "Anne of Green Gables" are a few of my favorite movies.
ReplyDeleteI like the blue fitted jacket.
ReplyDeleteAnne Shirley: You know something, Diana? We are rich. We have sixteen years to our credit, and we both have wonderful imaginations. We should be as happy as queens.
ReplyDelete[gestures to the setting sun]
Anne Shirley: Look at that. You couldn't enjoy its loveliness more if you had ropes of diamonds.
The Vintage Fashion section.
ReplyDelete"Tomorrow is a new day, with no mistakes in it." And my favorite Anne and Gilbert quote is this (although it might just be from the movies, not the books...) "I don't want sunbursts or marble halls, I just want YOU." *sigh* :) Well this seems like a ton of fun!

ReplyDeleteGenevieve
jenny(at)ykwc(dot)net
I wish I could afford this for sure!! http://shopatsullivan.com/dvds-1/avonlea-complete-series.html
ReplyDeleteas a redhead myself this is my favorite: “You'd find it easier to be bad than good if you had red hair," said Anne reproachfully. "People who haven't red hair don't know what trouble is.”
ReplyDeleteWow! These are all such great quotes! My favorite and the one that has the most significance for me since my grandmother died is an RtA quote: "You can rest easy knowing you have a place to come home to...Our Avonlea." -Hetty King.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite quotes is
ReplyDeleteMrs. Rachel Lynde, "You're never safe from surprise until you're dead."
My favorite item from the Sullivan store is the Complete set of Road to Avonlea
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite quotes would be Anne's; "I'm in the depths of despair!" :D
ReplyDeleteI love this Edwardian Cameo White Pearl Choker Necklace and Earrings Set.
ReplyDeleteONE favorite quote? Hmm. Well, I often say, "Tomorrow is another day, with no mistakes in it." "Well, no mistakes in it yet." :-)
ReplyDeleteLove RTA! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to just pick *one* of my favorite quotes from that movie! My top one would have to be: "I know I chatter on far too much but if you only knew how many things I want to say and don't." It always makes me smile. :)
ReplyDeleteMy two favorite things in the Sullivan Store are: "True Friends Plaque" and the "Edwardian-style Clear Rhinestone Necklace and Earrings Set." :)
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is "I'm in the depths of despair!"
ReplyDeleteDefinitely been thinking of this quote this fall: "I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers." =)
ReplyDeleteFor a moment Anne's heart fluttered queerly and for the first time her eyes faltered under Gilbert's gaze and a rosy flush stained the paleness of her face. It was as if a veil that had hung before her inner consciousness had been lifted, giving to her view a revelation of unsuspected feelings and realities. Perhaps, after all, romance did not come into one's life with pomp and blare, like a gay knight riding down; perhaps it crept to one's side like an old friend through quiet ways; perhaps it revealed itself in seeming prose, until some sudden shaft of illumination flung athwart its pages betrayed the rhythm and the music, perhaps. . . perhaps. . .love unfolded naturally out of a beautiful friendship, as a golden-hearted rose slipping from its green sheath.
ReplyDeleteLove that one :)
http://shopatsullivan.com/dvds-1/rta1.html <<Would love to watch that one.
ReplyDeletehttp://shopatsullivan.com/novels <<And of course all the books by L.M. Montgomery are loved :)
