This week in swag

My lovely Aunt Gail who lives in the frozen wasteland of Michigan made us this beautiful wall hanging:
She made it for us because she's super nice and because I told her the quilt she made for us that I posted about a few months ago was too nice to use so we planned to hang it on the wall. She said that we were to use the quilt as we would any other quilt and that she'd make us something to hang on a wall.
And as you can see she's as good as her word. We love the birds, some of the bird on the wall hanging flit around our house all year long. And the colors she chose for this piece go well with our red couch and the other stuff we have in our TV room.

Thanks for the art Aunt Gail! We love it!
