Anyone who knows me knows I love Christmas. In fact, when I was in high school my nickname was Christmas. I've been listening to Christmas music for a month already, my trees are up, and I'm ready to celebrate the season. We could use some snow, but I may have to wait until Friday for that!! :)
Once again it has been fun to participate in another blog hop (thank you Marian for organizing it). Here are today's participants:

This tablerunner is a free pattern from Martingale, and you can find it here. I've seen it numerous times and finally decided I should try it. It actually is a very easy pattern, and as with most patterns just changing the fabric choices updates it.
I used my walking foot to try some new things with the quilting which was fun and challenging all at the same time.

There is another giveaway from the Fat Quarter Shop of a $25 gift certificate. This is a combined giveaway, so if you win, you won't hear from me, but don't let that keep you from entering because the winner from the last hop was Nancy who commented here!!! This time I will give you a question to answer with your comment...What is your all time favorite holiday song? I love Joy To The World, but if you ask my family, they would probably say that they all are my favorite. :)
Thanks for stopping by, commenting, and I hope you win!!! Happy Stitching!! --Kristen

I also love them all but right now my favorite is probably 'Baby It's Cold Outisde'. Thanks for the opportunity!
I'm glad you found that tablerunner pattern for us...thank you! I love most all traditional Christmas songs but also some newer ones. Currently, "Mary Did You Know" is my favorite.
Have so enjoyed this hop and am sad it is ending.
My favorite is Oh Holy Night -- but I love them ALL!
Silent Night is my favorite Christmas carol.
What a lovely pattern. Sew pretty in Christmas colors. I guess I have to add a new idea to my 'to-do' List. :)
Merry Christmas
Mary did you know is my favorite. I love your runner
I'm terrible at picking favorites! I'll just name one song I like -- the David Bowie & Bing Crosby version of Little Drummer Boy. So cool, combining old & new.
TSO- Ring Christmas Bells...Love the power of their version.
Great quilt.
I love all Christmas music.. to pick a favorite is hard. Have yourself a merry little Christmas always gets me singing.

I love red and white patterns, probably because my grandmother made a red and white quilt which I recently received. This quilt is at least 80 years old.
Cute runner...very pepperminty! Thanks for the link to the pattern.
Great table runner! looks fun to put together.
As long as I am not the one singing, I love "O Holy Night" - But for a good group sing like caroling something rowdy is more fun!
I love your table runner! I think my favorite is "In the Bleak Midwinter" by Gustav Holst. But I'm a Christmas music junkie and play carols on the piano all year long.
I love Silent Night.
Very nice! You did a lovely job.
Jingle bells!

VERY PRETTY..THANKS FOR SHARING
I think I love them all--but What Child Is This? and O Holy Night are on top of the list.
Christmas music is the best. Silent Night has been on my mind so much lately - my favorite.
Your runner will be such a nice addition to all of your Christmas decorating. That is a great pattern.
Your runner turned out so beautiful and will look great on your table while the Christmas music is playing! Christmas music is so uplifting and full of love. The Little Drummer Boy is my favorite.
Yummy yummy yummy...first thing I thought of was peppermint candies! You did a great job on this runner! I'm going to have to turn up the Christmas music and download the pattern! Thanks!
Wonderful table runner. Thanks for the link to the pattern. I think I would have to say Silent Night is my favorite. However for fun I like "Grandma got runover by a Reindeer" LOL
Hark the Herald Angels Sing is the Christmas song that I love the most among the many. My first time on your blog and I've enjoyed reading some of the previous posts.
I love White Christmas...
My favorite Christmas song is Silent Night. On the form I said CindyM in Oregon but apparently I am Cindy Maki here. I am trying to change everything over to my one real alias which is my real name. LOL. It takes time when everyone uses a different blog host. Happy Holidays to you all!
O Come All Ye Faithful! Very lovely tablerunner too.
Your table runner is fabulous! I have not made one before, and keep thinking I should. This looks like a very fun one to try! Choosing a favorite Christmas song is a tough one... When I was younger it was the Little Drummer Boy. I think Do You Hear What I Hear is one of my favorites now.
No one else has ever heard of it but I love "32 feet and 8 little tails" by Elaine Paige. I used to make my parents play it over and over when I was little.

Very cute runner. I love the fabrics!
Your trees is up? Wow! I'll begin mine tomorrow - it usually takes me a week just to do the tree. I love it but oh dear, the work! Sweet little runner. I definitely like the straight-line quilting and yours looks wonderful. Have some heart this season. :)
Christmas Is In Your Heart today.. Your table runner is lovely. It's quite interesting actually because of the layout, it almost appears like their is a 3d effect.
Just lovely.
what a delightful little runner--love those little prints--
keep enjoying Christmas--
smiles, diane
Love your tablerunner and thanks so much for the link to the pattern. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

"Christmas is for children" (I think that's the name!) Lovely runner.
My favorite song is Christmas Time is Here by the Vince Guaraldi Trio (made popular by the Peanuts gang).

Oh, My! trees up already! You are full of the spirit!

All time favorite is Silent Night.
Great runner! You are way ahead with your readiness for Christmas. I have purchased several gifts but haven't even thought of decorating yet. My favorite song is Silent Night. Thanks for sharing!
Carol of the Bells is my favorite. I loved the version we learned in glee club. Great design. Thanks for sharing.
mary's boy child jesus christ song by bonnie m....love that song....happyness04431@yahoo.com
I used to sing in a women's choir and Christmas music is my favorite. I love them all! Haven't really met one I don't like. I just play them all all day long. Thanks
Favorite? So many but really love Carol of the Bells by Mannheim Steamroller. Lovely table runner. Thanks for sharing.
Great table runner -- thank you for sharing the link! They have a couple of cute patterns available as freebies!! What Child Is This? is one of my all time favorites! And there's blue grass version of We Three Kings that I adore, too! Thank you for sharing with us today!! :)
Love the table runner. My favorite Christmas song is Silent Night. :)
It is so hard to pick a favorite, but if I must, I would probably say "Silent Night."
Thank you for participating. The blog hop has been fun for me.
nice runner perfect for your holiday table. I just love all the music at Christmas ... songs on the radio , hymns in church
Merry Christmas
in stitches
Sweet table runner. Choosing one song would be too hard. I think my favorite would be the version of Little Drummer boy with Bing Crosby and David Bowie from years ago.
What a cheerful runner! That looks like such a fun pattern to make. My nickname is "Little Miss Christmas"
My email is: bestbelle2010@aol.com
Thanks!
Oh, there are so many nice Christmas songs as long as I don't hear them until after Thanksgiving. I especially like Silent Night.
My favorite song changes every few years but right now it's "Mary Did You Know". Cute tablerunner.
Really cute tablerunner! I have lots of favorites but as of the last couple of years my favorite has been Aaron Shust version of O Come Emmanuel.
