Can You See Me Now?


This is the central part of the tree quilt. Look a bit familiar, but not quite?  It's because this is upside down from the way you usually have been looking at it.

If you have been having a hard time with this quilt, with the trees going in four directions, it helps if you look at it strictly as an abstract design of color and shape.

This is the same quilt, "right side up" and without the bottom row chopped off. I've been "fine tuning" and made a couple more yellow trees and another overlapping tree. You can find them.

The blocks on the vertical rows on either side have not been sewn together, but everything else has been. When I sew those long side chunks together, and then sewn those to the central panel, I'll flip the quilt upside down as in the first photo and design the extra row across the top (because my design wall isn't big enough).

I know I've said it before, but I am really, really, really, liking this quilt.
