Modern Tree

I saw a panel done with this strip method at a local quilt store. Sadly they did not have the fabric, but I found it on line. It was a lot of fun to just stagger the fabric and see the results! I am still working on ideas for the border; no rush, the ideas will come (usually in the middle of the night!)

I really like the way you used that panel and Purple is my favorite color. Good job!

I have the center panel, thanks for an idea of how to use it. Would like to see when you finish it.

Great way to add interest to a panel.

lovely. All the best ideas come in the middle of the night

That is pretty. I'd keep the border simple so the focus stays on the tree. :)

I finished mine the way the pattern instructed. http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...e-t268150.html I think the diamond fabric would make a great border for yours. Love the purple.

sinceresissy 02-02-2016 05:00 AM

I like it. The colors are great.

That is awesome!

Lynn, I also saw this panel at my local fabric store and bought their last one in stock along with whatever fabrics they had available. Was able to acquire the fuschia pink and blue/green argyll fabrics. Then went online to find more to go with it. Have some of the blue splatter, multi-color splatter and waiting for the orange splatter to arrive. Its been backordered since October from Hancock's so have a feeling I'll never see it. Picked up enough of the argyll for the backing and plan to fracker it like you did but was thinking of using black. Am looking to make it queen size so will need to add some blocks of sorts to enlarge it. Its still in the planning stage. Will be keeping my eyes on what you do with yours.

Oh my; that is just awesome. I need a new project and I would love to try this. Really beautiful.

That is stunning! Many, many people will enjoy looking at this one!

jamsbuying 02-03-2016 06:35 AM

Love the panel and what a great way to use it. Maybe a small black border first? Or just one larger black border!

Snooze2978 02-03-2016 07:52 AM

I have this same panel and wanted to fracker it also. You've just given me an idea with making it a type of bargello pattern. Thanks as I've been beating my head against the wall trying to come up with a good pattern to make this panel larger to fit a queen bed.

klswift 02-03-2016 09:56 AM

beautiful. Ideas are flying at me about framing and borders and.......Can't wait to see what you decide to do. PLEASE, PLEASE post the finished top.

quiltybarb 02-03-2016 10:33 AM

That is beautiful! I just bought window curtain panels that look similar to that design....wanted something bright and colorful....
will have to make that.....
