    Your tree is beautiful. I didn't at first have any idea that is where it was going. Adding the leaves, etc. is very creative. Um, I am going to have to get with it. lol.....Actually I sewed a bit last night. I have finished the main center theme of 4 blocks, but need to plan out the rest of my creation. Welcome back everyone. Welcome to this swap to others. Have fun creating and sewing.

    Thank you June, it really looks a lot better in person, than in the pictures, it took me almost all day just to quilt it, I have to take a lot of breaks because of my back pain, I've taking some meds and waiting for them to kick in so I can get some sleep. I feel like a zombie sometimes.
    As you can see I usually do most my posting wee hours in the morning...LOL
    And thank you for the welcome..

    Lu2sew2011, I was thinking a tree (just because I love all the shades of them) but wasn't sure. I think your wall hanging is wonderful. I'm really going to have to get in gear, but Dh is going out of town tomorrow for the week so I will have some long days to sew.

    Have a great day everyone!

    Wow Luv that was quick for you, not due yet. Now I feel slow, (no offense please just funning). I am working on the embroidery of ladies. Goal is to have the ladies embroidered by end of this month then will post photos. I will then have to decide what colors to sash them with to put in wall hanging. Been busy with show quilts and customer quilts right now along with canning and all that summer stuff so a bit slow, but working on it none the less.
