This is Linda's fourth quilt....but my favorite.....well maybe...I have to many favorites....but if this were mine I would hang it on the wall. It's so pretty!

So for quilting I wanted to enhance the trees with leaves, and wood grain. I quilted little leaves and loops around the tree blocks. Then I put a leafy feather in the side setting triangles to bring it all in. For the birds and wreaths I echoed around the outside and filled them in with Swirls....to kind of break up texture and make it stand out.

Beautiful quilt!

I used my 26 innova and quilted all of this freehand. The batting is quilter's dream cotton.

Thanks for looking.

Charisma

I love this one, too!

WOW, you're right...she did a beautiful job or piecing. Love your leafy feathers, GORGEOUS.

I love how you always enhance the piecing/applique with your fabulous quilting Charisma!! Gorgeous quilt and quilting!

Oh beautiful detail!!! I love the tree bark and how it looks like wood.

I've never used "quilter's dream cotton" does it compare to 80/20 Hobbs or in it's own catagory?

Just beautiful!!

Beautiful piecing and your quilting tops it off! Just wonderful! I always enjoy looking at all the pics you include. Thanks

Beautiful and i envy your patience's.

Charisma, I have to say that this is my FAVORITE of all the ones you have posted. I love the quilt, and the quilting is subtle but effective in highlighting the best features of the quilt. I like it a lot....more than a lot!!!

WOW! Beautiful quilt made prettier by your gorgeous quilting!

Very pretty!

......................Wow......................... .......gorgeous, and I would definitley hang it on the wall. :thumbup:

Oh, that is so wonderful!! The quilt and the quilting are both fabulous and together...WOW!

Perfection! What more could anyone say! My grandma used to tell me "the quilt top is the background to show off the beautiful quilting, not the other way around". I truly believe that when I see your work.

wow I love this!

Yes, just like all the comments before me -- Great all around!!

How Charisma keeps the quilting balanced, unique and perfectly matched to the quilt is unbelievably awesome! I love what she has done for this one, from the wood grain in the trunks to the leaves in the trees to the way she has made my cute little birds pop it is all wonderful, Thank You Charisma!
The tree of life pattern is an adaptation from an Edyta Sitar pattern, the half square triangle units are from an exchange, and the appliques are from Edyta's silhouette stencils, it was a lot of fun to plan and execute :o) Now that Charisma has brought it all to life it feels just wonderful!

Stunning...:)
