I finally got it quilted. :D #1. I had to practice free motion quilting. #2. I had that craft sale stuff to finish #3. My daughter wants one of these for her new room in a house at college. So, the CW quilt has been temporarily set aside so I can get this ready for DD. She leaves Thursday....

The blue/green around the outside is one of the most beautiful colors I've ever seen--but the camera won't capture it. :?

There's only enough blue/green left to do one binding, so I pulled the tree truck brown fabric--and Rachel loves that--so I'll get green, she gets brown. :D I'll bind them tomorrow.

I'm getting much more confident with my stippling. :D :D :D

I also sandwiched "tranquility" and two other UFOs--I'll quilt them tomorrow. :wink:

Then it's back to the CW for hubby. :D

great job!

Great job Karla. Love the colors in the tree of life. Very pretty. Hope you and your mini's stay warm tonight. See where your getting hit with more 'weather'.

Very Pretty!!! And your stippling looks great too! :D

Okay--I tried to get a close up of the outside border color--I'll see if this looks close....

Alaskan lady--I am very weary of dealing with the weather as far as the horses are concerned. If it was just me I had to worry about--it'd not be a big deal. Take this morning, for example: I got up at 5:15 am on a Saturday :shock: because I knew the waters in the barn would be frozen. Then I emptied four 70 lb tubes of traction sand in the pasture (heavy!!) so the horses would have a path to walk on--I worry about them slipping--borken legs and lost foals :( . I also spread three buckets of lime--it adheres to ice and creates traction. Then I shoveled--again. Plus I did all the usual--clean stalls, empty buckets, make stalls up, get hay down for the week. It took two hours. I ate a double serving of oatmeal when I came in. :D

Thanks Melissa. Maybe it was just a phase before--a hormonal one? :lol: I'm glad I got through it. :oops:

Oh YES--that's the color!! Try to visualize it on the photo above. :wink:

:lol: :lol: :lol: But it was a fun Phase!!!! :wink:

Great job, Karla. I love your tree of life!

Looks beautiful Karla

love the tree !!
