I've been working on my quilt. I broke my rule about stitching before the whole thing is designed so much of what you see is already sewn down. It's back up on the design wall so that I can cut the rest of the pieces. Here it is with the overlay over it. You can sort of see what still needs to be cut.
It's prettier, brighter, with the overlay pinned up and out of the way…
The leaves on the tree are sewn using the cutaway applique techinque so they are a lot bigger here than they will be later.
So far so good!



WOW! The colors look great!

Looking REALLY good! Love the bright colors. BTW, did you ever hear from that lady about what type of tree that was? I’m still sooooo curious! Thanks for the wonderful blog.

HI Myra:
Yes, it is a weeping cedar. I remember emailing you and I thought I also added a comment on that post. Maybe my email got eaten by your spam filter. Heres hoping this one goes through :-).
