It’s another finish, just in time to enter the Persimmon dreams, monthly Scrap Quilt Challenge!! The June theme, was trees!! This quilt is like usual, a design of my own!
This quilt top is made completely out of scraps!! All of the triangles are cut offs from multiple things, but mostly binding. They are seen together using a flip and stitch method then squaring up.
Each tree triangle section ranges from 1 inch to 3 inches high, by 3.5 to 4.5 inches wide. The trunks are honestly about the same dimensions.
The trees each have 5 sections and each row is 5 trees wide! I kinda love the odd number in most things. The rows are stacked from the shortest tree to the tallest tree. I then added a section to even each row out to match the tallest tree.
The quilt seemed to need something else. So the star was introduced. Honestly they added width to the quilt and the perfect finishing touch!! The star centers are 3. 5 inch squares. The points are also made with the flip method.
The rows were then trimmed for all to have matching widths. To finish it off, I added a 2 inch strip of white to the top and bottom.
I quilted it with grass like rows across the bottom of all the trees. Then swirls around each tree.
The binding, is made out of leftover binding pieces from other quilts.
Then there is this cute little tag!! It was part of my Christmas collection. It matched perfectly!!
Then look at this cute family of bassets!! On some if our recently cut trees!
