A Gift

This past Sunday was my birthday and Mary of Quilt Hollow sent me the sweetest little quilt. A while back she asked my favorite colors. I told her brown and green but I do love pink too. I know brown is not a very pretty color but she sure made it look good in this quilt. I just love earth tones.
I just love it. If you look close you can see her quilting too.
I put it on my kitchen table along with this candle holder that I have not put away from Christmas. Brown and green, a very nice combination to me.
 Mary sent this pin cushion at Christmas time. So sweet. Thanks so much Mary. I will cherish this quilt and pin cushion.
I have to share something pretty cool too. I follow Mama T's blog. You have to go by and see her quilt that she has hanging in the National Quilt Museum in Paducah. It is amazing. Go by if you have a minute and give her a high five/congratulations.

Don't forget to link up your UFO finishes here. You have until the end of the 28th.

With Passion,
Carrie P.
