MemeRuss' projects Category Style Type Modern Traditional Applique Art Batik Hand Pieced Queen Baby Lap / Throw King Double Fabric By The Yard Fat Quarters 5" Square 10" Square 2 1/2" Strips Other Tree of Life This is the second quilt I made for my son. With the help of my daughter-in-love, we came up with some ideas. I put them all together in this tree of life/three little birds quilt. Three little birds on the right are his three children and on the left are the parents. Notes the birds are singing of course are the notes to the song. Background fabric is satin. The tree and leaves are cotton batik. By MemeRuss 7 LIKES | 433 VIEWS O Henry I found this pattern on Pinterest. I recreated it for my great nephew.

It was a challenge to sew because it was so heavy. 15 pounds! The pattern is called Strip Twist and is made with two jelly rolls of Woolies Flannel Colors by Bonnie Sullivan.

The trees are Robert Kaufman Artisan Batiks. The stars in the sashing are from the same fabric. This was my first time using applique. This very special quilt was a gift for my 6th grandchild born in March 2017.

The pattern was for a wall quilt and I wanted a Queen size quilt. When I enlarged it the cross turned out "gigantic" so I had to make a few adjustments. I used straight line machine quilting and it took a while to complete. It is all worth it for my little girl!

I didn't have any of his shirts so I went to Goodwill and bought some XXL shirts and just made this HST quilt. I used flannel for the backing. It is 81" x 81" and is the perfect size to use in my little camper. By MemeRuss 8 LIKES | 1131 VIEWS «12»
