    Is there a name for your gorgeous tree quilt? It just shines! It’s incredibly beautiful and so different!!! I just love it!

    how difficult was it to make? And please be honest about the level of difficulty.

    This was all made with 3 1/2" sized, 60 degree triangles. If you have worked with 60 degree triangles in the past it isn't any different. I recommend starching the fabric well before cutting because there are a lot of bias edges, but otherwise isn't too tricky. The bias edges want to stretch and distort.

    There isn't a pattern, I drew it out on triangle graph paper (www.freegraphpaper.com) and used all scraps.

    I love the design. It looks as if winter sun was shining into your eyes through a tree.

    That's amazing! I don't think I've ever seen one done like that before.
