The leaf idea was inspired!

Thanks everyone! I have now started the nest one. Another patriotic quilt. I was so mad at the kids for getting too rowdy and making the fabric rip while on the frame that I had to just sit on this one for a little while until I got over being mad about all the work and figured out something to make it all work. We looked in my embroidery designs over and over again to find something, anything and that is what we come up with and it covered it just perfect. We used scotch tape to hold down the fabric and batting while it embroidered and it covered the pplace just perfectly, now I feel tons better about this quilt.
