About 5 years ago I peiced these trees. I got the idea from a possibilities book and I didn't want to paper peice ( I am not sure why now becuase I don't mind paper peicing?) but I didn't know how to use the angle on my ruler very well either it was my first time....and I have a few cut off points but now I am a pro?? LOL
Anyway..I quilted it for two days and finally finished it last night. I used silver metallic on the backgrounds...except the yellow fabrics I used gold metallic. I uses a green variagated for the trees and a purple thread for the border...this is heavily quilted but I wanted that shiny thread to stand out! So this is staying here! You can't see the metallic shiny thread in the photos..but trust me it is there!

gorgeous!

Did you quilt on a small machine or a long arm?

Love that... Oh, I might have to steal your idea, its gorgeous and I usually don't care for Christmas projects... I don't have time to finish normal projects, let alone ones just for holidays, but that's adorable. Great Job!!!
