On The 13th Day of Christmas


Those who know me, know that this would be a favorite of mine just because if has a date smack dab in the middle of it. I am going to put my tree up this weekend, yes I said tree. My new place doesn't have room for 9 trees so we are only putting up one. It makes me kinda sad!

WOW! What an incredible quilt! I am amazed - it is simply wonderful in so many ways. Its a work of art - a masterpiece. I LOVE the cheddar sawtooth border. Where did you find the picture of this quilt?

Caroline said...

What a spectacular quilt! I especially love the borders. Like Janet, I'd love to know where you found the picture!

What is the date in the center? I couldn't see it (maybe I'm not looking close enough?) ENJOY your ONE TREE in your new place...it's all YOURS and that's what matters! :cD

I am just loving all of these quilts that you are sharing. I think I need to get back to basics in 2009 and make one of these lovely quilts. I have the fabric, all washed and ready to cut. Can't wait to see what comes next.

Great quilt...love how they just run the vines on the borders to the edges. Enjoy your tree!

It's beautiful. We don't think of putting the year on quilts anymore, but maybe we should.
