This is a family tree quilt I made for Hubbies family reunion a couple of year ago.

You will see pins in some of the leaves as I had every family member who was able to sign a leaf at the reunion...... when pic was taken not all leaves were sowen on.

The two leaves on the ground are two members who are deceased.
These leaves were put on the ground as gone but not forgotten.
There are over 200 leaves leaves on the tree...... inlaws - children and grand children.
13 children in hubby's family are the rose buds that vine around the tree.
Their mom and dad are in the heart on the tree.

Was fun to make and was a hit at the reunion as I didn't tell anyone I was making it. Took me 6 weeks. to make the quilt and all the leaves.
