Amy Butler trees.....by Charisma

Well I have this obsession with Amy Butler fabrics...every new line she comes out with I buy....I know. It's pretty scary then I hoard them for my "special projects"...it's a sickness having this haording disease ( only when it comes to fabric) I think I am among my supporters. LOL

Anyway these trees I just knew would make a good "cheater" quilt. Love the pink and red blossoms. The funky green color....yep.....just had to have.
I thought I could do some "fancy" custom quilting...then decided I really need to showcase some all-over type designs....so I used Clam shells from my loricle templates and quilted custom borders.
I hope you all have a blessed day.

Charismah the way you quilted this is pure genious. I would not have considered an all over clam shell but it is the perfect compliment to this fabric. What you did in the borders is nothing short of pure "charismalishiousness".
