northwind Tree of Life - I used fabrics that were left from our opportunity quilt and added some yardage of coordinating Jo Morton-type fabrics for the setting triangles. I had pieced many large flying geese for an inner border on the opportunity quilt and made additional smaller half-square triangles after trimming the flying geese, which gave the tree everlasting blocks a very scrappy look. This quilt was donated to the silent auction at our guild quilt show. I made a bird applique to practice the machine blanket stitch and used that as the label on the back.
