Leaves are coming out on my trees

...my trees for my Trees of Life quilt by Edyta Sitar, that is. Last night I sewed all the hst's (that would be a total of 188 for 2 of these wallhangings) and then even though it was getting late, I couldn't wait to put at least 1 tree together.

First, here is a pic of my hst's. Didn't I train them well? They all piled nicely on their own as I was sewing them! That never happens to me, so I took a pic:



Then, after I got them all cut, pressed and de-dog earred, I put some together into the first block. Here it is:



I'm thinking I really am going to like this. What do you think?

  3. Very nice. How big is this wallhanging? The blocks are big. Fall trees.

  4. I think this is great. I'd love to know how big it is. Just think how easy the HST's will be with your Go! cutter.
