    They are all beautiful quilts. The Forest for the trees is my favorite!

    Thank you all for the wonderful comments! My head is swelling LOL!!! "Forest for the Trees" is my original. I strip pieced a collection of batiks (varied widths from 1.5" to 3") then strip pieced white batiks and cut out freehand for the trees. I then FMQed all of it together.

    And yes, I am trying to get ahead on my Christmas stack. I always seem to need extras so I am trying to get the gift closet filled early! Helps to finally have life settling down so hubby and I can stay home on the weekends. I quilt, he gardens.
