A Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday Finish!

This finish was to be my sisters Christmas gift for 2009, then her Birthday gift for March 2010, so now it is an October Gift!!
When I hosted the red and aqua disappearing nine patch swap last year I joined twice. I knew I wanted a quilt with those colors and I know my sister loved them also.
So, here is her quilt and a little something extra for her.
Bumble the abominable snowman from Rudolph, which she loves!

    Looks great! Should I dig out my squares? Maybe take them to Florida! Oops - shouldn't mention Florida - makes Jane sad!

    I love that quilt...and I LOVE your playlist. I usually have my computer on silent because I HATE it when I might be nursing a baby to sleep and reading blogs..and up pops music. But, today I will be visiting your blog for a bit enjoying a listen :)

    Jane, I've been keeping an eye on that same backing fabric to use for my red and aqua quilt! The first time I saw the fabric, I knew it would make the perfect backing. Nice to see it done and know for sure! What a nice gift for your sister!

    good job! I participated in the swap and have yet to put the lovely red and aqua all together. It was one of my goals to do for 2010 and I don't know if I will make it. Your finished project is inspiring me to get to it.

    What a perfect gift. I know she will adore it! I must get mine done but I'm so busy at the moment I can't seem to manage it. I'll have to find the time somewhere.
