So, when I saw this pattern, I was intitially not very excited. Could not figure out how to keep with my snowflake fabric theme. However, I found that I really enjoyed watching it come together. I did manage to use my green snowflake fabric. I found some pretty decent Christmas scraps for the trees. I thought it would be difficult, but it wasn’t. A bit tedious maybe, but not too hard. I am excited to see what Block #3 will look like for the I wish you a Merry Quilt Along.
I also did a bit of work on my Table topper design. Sewed down all the leaves. I am starting to like it. I got it pin basted and selected my thread. THe thread is perfect, it has all the colors of the homespun in it. I love the varigated threadds. I also bought them on clearance for 50 cents each, which I also love. I think I know how I am going to quilt it, bit need to stare at it a bit longer. Also considering putting some vein in the leaves.
Happy Sewing

I really like the topper. It would look great on MY table. 🙂 Veins in the leaves would be a nice touch.

I love your trees block. The added green blocks really set if off. Also, your outline sewing on your leaves is perfect. If I could do that I would not mind applique so much. Great job on both projects.

Very nice Tree block.
I love the fall table runner.
I find myself “staring” at my projects.
It’s good to know I’m not the only one.
