Hello again lovely readers.......this week's post was inspired by trees..........both fabric and real ones.....
.......this is the start of a new version of my peppermint trees quilt which i made last year (pattern in my etsy shop link in sidebar).....
..........this time it is more colourful and decorative with red and pink trees as well as green ones......
....it's an easy make using machine appliqué and bondaweb.......
......soon put together and ready for some peaceful evening hand quilting........
............here's the flimsy (quilt top) hanging up in my sewing room ready for making the quilt sandwich.....
..........and with the sun shining on it.........below is the backing fabric i chose.........
...........and now some real trees on a walk in our nearby woods..........
..........lots of perfect bracket fungus........
...........and beautifully coloured leaves..........a design inspiration for sure.........
........and finally this week's quilt stack with a patchwork bird on top........cosy and squishy and all ready for these chilly november nights..............
.........wishing you a happy november dear readers and thank you for dropping by.......thanks too for your kind comments and messages, they mean a lot to me.........take care lovelies.....peace and love......back soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Oh wow! That design inspiration is gorgeous. Good find there. I look forward to seeing what you create from it.
I think the trees are lovely. I'd like to add trees in some squares and stars in other squares.
Love your tree project , and lovely photos .
Have a great weekend.
Looking forward to seeing your new peppermint tree farm quilt when finished. So many cute prints in there. Lovely Autumn pictures and love your cosy bird on a stack of your pretty quilts. Wishing you a cosy and Happy Weekend, Helen!
