Tree is finished..

My little tree is done! Pretty good effort, if I do say so myself.

Got me thinking about Christmas, and how I can translate this design to a type of Family Tree. Should I use photos, signatures, handprints?? Maybe some other method?? Oh, the choices!!!

Something a little different...

Although my machine is in for service, my new iron was working fine! Decided to do some appliqué prep instead.

I found this tree in a magazine (the same one as the sunbathers and snorkeller) and I knew I had a couple of fat quarters in green. The hardest part was the trunk!! But now I've got 19 yoyos to make. Good thing the heating is working!

The final background won't be white, not sure exactly what it will be instead!! Or whether to make a hanging, or a bag, or something else?? Definitely going to be machine quilted, whichever option I choose...
