Tree quilt layout

 
Posted by Picasa

This is the layout of all the quilt block centers — the months of the year surround the central tree which will have leaves/flowers from 3 of the 4 seasons (cause I don’t want a 1/2 dead looking tree, even if it does represent winter).

A close up of the center medallion. It’s pretty just like that, isn’t it? I’ll probably end up making it look ugly once I start sticking leaves and flowers on it.

I’ve stitched the crazy quilt pieces down, but haven’t added embroidery or beads yet. I also have to add leaves to the center tree. They will be a blend of pale yellow, purple and redish brown: the last leaves left on the tree as winter arrives.

This is one of my favorite squares, but it doesn’t photograph well. I guess I should say, “I, standing on one foot balanced over the bed with my camera stretched way out trying to get it all in the frame” don’t take very good pictures. I still have orange and yellow leaves to add to the center tree. (It looks better if you click on it to view it close up.)
