Greenpiece catch-up

Because of my camera woes, I wasn't able to share my completed Moda Greenpiece BOM blocks for last month. Since I just finished up the center block, it seems like a good time to do a little progress report and share the ones from last month and the center together.

I am so bad at centering these appliques. Ugh! Fortunately, the blocks are cut nearly 2" larger than needed, so I should be able to center the designs better when I trim them down.

Center block:

I think I'm a little in love with this tree. I'm so happy with how this block came out! It is about 23" square and will be the centerpiece of the quilt. I added a lot more leaves to the original design, because I wanted a fuller-looking tree. I also added more fallen leaves, just because.

    The fallen leaves are a perfect addition to the tree block. It is a fantastic centerpiece for this quilt. Are you used to your new camera yet? Your pictures look good :)

    Great blocks, Robin,
    It is fall so fallen leafs are appropriate.
