Who is the lucky one?

Thank you all for sharing your ambitious quilting goals with me--indeed you have my wholehearted backing for reaching them!  And for the birthday wishes, further thanks.  I spent my birthday in the hospital where I was born, helping my 93 year old mother in law after a surgery.  She is a tough old bird and was doing very well.  In a few minutes I'll be heading out the door to the hospital and hopefully her discharge will not be long after.  But first, the winner of Mr. Turkey and the Give Thanks pattern:

 These beautiful flowers were a birthday gift from my darling husband.  The decorated gourd holds all the entrant's names.

 Grant wanted to pick the winner, and she is....

 Darlene B!

Congratulations Darlene!  I have sent an email notifying her of her win.  Mr. Turkey does have two of these corner hanger triangles so that he can be displayed vertically as well.  Thanks again to all of you for popping in on my little blog and your kind words and birthday wishes!  Happy Quilting :)

Congrats to Darlene.
I hope your MIL is doing well. And I hope you get to celebrate in style another time. The hospital where I was born has been torn down and is now a parking lot.
Happy Birthday month to a fellow turkey (did you get that much? I got it mostly from a brother-in-law).
