And a yellow one. ;- )<br /><br />Most of the sequins on your Christmas stockings are still available. Unfortunately the birds are not, as far as I can tell. Which is too bad because they are one of my favorite embellishments.Magpie Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930036522719103192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8501766604865364993.post-27650740856737005962010-12-13T13:34:40.321-08:002010-12-13T13:34:40.321-08:00Hey LeeAnn, That red quilt ROCKS!

I think Tom, the oldest, got a very elaborate santa claus with sequinned beard. Patti, my mom (and the baby of 8) got a very simple one with a felt duck, trumpet, and an elf. I don't think she even got any sequins..
