Love your chooks quilt, and that runner is really really nice my sort of thing.
What a lovely gift you received!
The runner you made is gorgeous too... very soft and pretty!
That certainly is a ChookyBlue quilt. Love your table runner I am like you I make something as a gift and really love it and never seem to get around to making it for myself.
I think you should start a runner for yourself NOW! You'd be finished before New Years!!
Very nice gifts coming and going from your house! The chook quilt is so perfect for you and it looks like a lot of fun. Your table runner is charming and will be well-loved. I'm going to have a go at making a quilt like the one I sent away too, sometime this year... although I will technically have to start it in the next few days as I said 'No new quilts in 2011! It's the year of Finishing!"
What a great quilt Chooky and the tablerunner is just gorgeous. No I am not looking forward to the high temps on the weekend either. It will be time to crank up the airconditioning xxx
well done Chooky, they are both delightful, have fun with your charm pack
I love the quilt you received, just perfect for you!!! That table runner you made Anita is gorgeous, you will definately have to make yourself one!
A very suitable gift for you from Nancy! Lovely! I like how the chooks are all different. Gorgeous table runner for Anita.

Lovely, lovely quilts, the chooks are as cute as can be. Your table runner is beautiful, what colour have you stitched it in? It's pretty and goes great with those Garden Party fabrics. Love it!

Great gifts, both of them!! All of the ornaments are great from your earlier post too! Fun swap!
Hey Donna! Love your chooky rug ... you might have been using it if you'd been visiting us ... finally stopped raining, but still overcast, cool and no summer weather in sight, so if you'd like to send some of the sun and heat, we'll take 'em! :0) Enjoy your week - I'm doing better with my Gardener's Journal stitching than the Aussies are with their cricket! :0) Bear Hugs!

chooks for chooky very appropriate. The table runner is lovely, love the prairie points, are they hard?
