A Family tree. Your family -- starting with you and your husband (or parents if no hubby), the prints are the trees flowers and of course the leaves would be green for spring and summer. Each name of your family would be on one leaf with dates of birth, marriage, death-if needed. You can go backwards as far as you wish and have the ancestors on one side and the rest of the family on the other or mix the two eras all around the tree canopy.
You could use palm branches or maple leaves or anything that tickles you pink. It would be your quilt and your own design. There are many tree trunks to find at crayola .com as well as many types of leaves. If you can't think of which one to use go to Google for tree trunks and view the pictures it puts up until the one raises it's limb and shouts "Me please". You will know the right one when you see it. Hope this gives you all thoughts.

Here's a link to just one tree--with some editing it would be a wonderful family tree. Could applique or cut the paper into blocks and make your own pattern. I saved this tree for future possible projects
