Yep ...I agree with the suggestion!
I showed it to my husband [he's a little wacky :roll: ... but fun] because we were trying to figure how you could continue such a great 'finished picture' that looks ready to frame!

We would continue with a harbor scene of sorts too... a touch of faint half-square triangles in the "water" and maybe a lighthouse to the side...

another row could have the statue of liberty... or some boats... or the other side of the "channel" ...

or [this is why I said he's a little wacky] you could continue "under the sea" [the grandkids recently watched the little mermaid and he could be focused on Sebastian!] :lol:[/quote]

Love your ideas. You, your huband and I must be on the same wave length. I had also thought of adding elfs in an underground Santa's workshop.

Or what about a tribute to Capt Sully for landing the plane so perfectly and saving all those people

My suggestion for next row is a Harbor scene with stature of Liberty and ships decorated for the holidays. This however is not my decision to make.

3's a Charm row robin -
RoseySue's first three rows. I added the top row and it looks a lot paler in the pic but blends nicely with RoseySue's row. I love all the soft rose fabrics. Hope you all like it. Carol

Oh Carol, It's so beatiful! The colors Flowers really enhance the rest of my quilt and the flowers are exceptional. I like what you did with the center too! You can make me a quilt anyday.

Quilty Thanks, Thanks, Thanks. Sue

Carol - that is stunning! RoseySue - your group really kept your pattern and colors going well!

[I'm glad we're off the sleigh over the city ....still thinking about how beautiful it would look over my couch :) ]

I loved the sleigh over the city - what a clever idea!
Its exciting to see such a variety of quilts going around. Gives me too many ideas and not enough time. Carol
