I made my trees for the Modern Christmas Trees QAL being hosted by Christa's Quilts http://christaquiltsblog.com/quilt-alongs/ Because I couldn't decide on which fabrics to use for the trees I decided to make them with the scraps from other projects. Christa refers to these as improv trees, which makes me sound very modern, which I am not :-) To me they are scrap trees. I used my Tri Recs rulers for the first time and am happy with them. I've had them for a while but didn't know how to use them, so this was a good project to work that out.
This Annalee Quilter Mouse is my birthday present to myself. She makes me smile.
Have a great weekend.
God Bless You.
Very cute trees and glad you tackled a new technique. Happy Birthday and love your gift to yourself.
