Favorite Christmas Quilt

Good morning peeps! First off a special good morning to my sweet little Frankie, today she turns 22!! I'm so proud of her and love her so much. Happy Birthday!!
Now back to our regularly schedule day of the Cross Country Blog hop. Tomorrow is the last day, make sure you've made your comments on everyone's special day so you can be entered into the big drawing. It's Roseann's day and get out the Kleenex, I know she' s going to be tugging at our heartstrings again today.
Today's topic is about our favorite Christmas quilts. R is for Rose isn't a Christmas pattern, but when I saw this wonderful border print from a 3 Sisters Christmas line a few years back I knew it would be perfect. Elizabeth helped me out doing the embroidery, she didn't like my puffy paint idea (just kidding).
Ok, I think there' s just one more day to hop. Good thing, I need to go get a turkey. xop

The print from 3 Sisters is from the line called Roman Holiday, and I would KILL (practically) for a few more yards of that red you've used in your border!! It is one of the most delicious prints I've ever seen -- EVER!!! The quilt is fabulous! Thanks for the inspiration!

Birthday blessings to Frankie.

What a lovely quilt - beautifully blooming for the holiday and you don't even have to water it. Now that's my kind of rose.

What size turkey? When hubby and I get home tomorrow night - first on my list is to make a list - for Thanksgiving dinner items. I get started early.

Happy birthday widdle Frankie!

Super quilt! But, are you making fun of puffy paint or something? Um, because I am, like wearing my puffy paint sweatsuit today. Just so that I don't have to wrap up in my puffy paint quilt. And where the heck are my puffy paint socks???? I'll talk to you later. On my puffy paint laptop.

By the way. Are you done with that quilt yet? Did you know that most people call me "Rose?" I mean, lots of people do, anyway. Or they will. In time. So, are you using the quilt, or what?

P.S. What have you done to my happy zombie? She's MIA.

Happy Birthday to Frankie. Today is my youngest son's 19th birthday. I saw him long enough for him to unwrap his presents this morning. He grabbed some birthday cake (that I made last night) and hurried off to college. I won't see him again 'til tomorrow. Why do they keep growing up? Oh yeah, so I've got time to quilt!

I like that quilt and the border, yep love the border.... I got some, just not enough for what I wanted to use it for - a good lesson learned!!! I've really enjoyed reading your blog dailey and will be on withdrawals for a while - picked up the magazine today, and am saving for this week end!!

Who has time for turkey shopping when one could be quilting!? But, yes, you should get that bird and enjoy special times with family and friends.
