Tree Quilt - 2017 Q1 Finish

Here is my first finish for the year.  Yay!  It is a wall hanging I plan on putting up each December.  I based it on a quilt from Vanessa Christensen's book, "Simply Color: Green."


Our house is quite dark, particularly during this hazy, cold winter.  So the white background really brightens up the stair landing.  I quilted it with simple wavy lines down the quilt -- kind of thinking about snow drifting down.  All the fabric is some I had in my stash, including the backing.  I didn't take a picture of the back because it's pretty ugly -- all my least favorite green fabrics I had on hand.  Since it'll hang on a wall, nobody will see it.  :)


I am almost finished with another wall hanging for this same spot, to be hung in February.  (I know, I know, it's already February.)

I am linking up to the Finish A Long at Elven Garden.

  2. I might just get busy on my tree wall hanging I've "meant to finish" for waaay too many Christmases. Thanks for the kick in the pants :)

    1. I hope it was more of a gentle nudge, rather than a kick. ;)
