ChookyBlue Christmas swap
A lovely Christmas runner came today from Gertie in Australia. I am so thrilled by it. She made it using my favorite technique" Applique" and it is just beautiful. she included some lovely fabric, a not pad from Australia and a lovingly made Christmas card. I have to say that the piecing is so precise that I thought it was a pre-printed panel until I looked closer. Gertie also fussy cut tiny Christmas ornament fabric so that all the ornaments are visible on the runner.
I could not ask for more.

Oh! My what a treat.
Sounds like you had a good swap partner :-) That is so nice! It really is a beautiful runner.
Beautiful! I sure hope I can wait until Christmas before I open mine, once it arrives!
beautiful gifts from Trudi........thanks for joining in the SSCS.......
Really a lovely gift, full of personality.
That is so pretty. I've been wanting to sew something Christmas-y.
it's beautiful.... love the colors and the applique
That is beautiful!
I'm sorry I wasn't given a pattern for the crow and pumpkin quilt. I could dig out the measurements and outline pic if that is any help?
I know what you mean about pattern names. I have made something similiar and the blocks are called Cobblestones. They are square, your pattern looks like it might be rectangles, though it is hard to tell.
