I had made so many comments on my iPhone or iPad that seem to disappear and they were good ones. I think you are the Squirrel Queen for 2019, so many wonderful and intricate projects you have done, you DrEAMi well. You have to imagine what my face looked like when I read the Kona color for the background was Kona PFD (Prepared for Dying) and thinking what a horrible and morbid name for a color and realizing you meant Dyeing. I've seen too many movies where the villain says "Prepare to Die", I think. Your daughter selected beautiful fabric for this heirloom tree skirt; I can see this being handed down to the granddaughter. The quilting is beautiful and just right. Have a Merry and Bright holiday!somethingrosemade14@blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02973160061640897272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1228319710577550585.post-67834556145853765322019-12-21T14:19:04.190-05:002019-12-21T14:19:04.190-05:00Wonderful finish!

I've loved watching it come to life, from those first skinny icicle-point stars you showed us on IG to its final resting place under its own tree, or on the shoulders of a humorous girl! I love how you quilted it, so modern and perfect. Sometimes less is more, and sometimes those straight lines are just so elegant. Thank you in advance for linking this up next Saturday! Merry Christmas my friend.

Really really pretty Janine! I think using a 'narrow-er' binding would help with the bulk going around the circle but as you said, this is not a noticeable place being at the trunk of the tree.<br /><br />Fantastic finish!!

Since that is right up under the tree, I bet no one will ever know that you weren't happy with it. This a wonderful finish, and looks great under the tree!LIttle Penguin Quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05963436433585505550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1228319710577550585.post-84568719225729654252019-12-20T12:10:40.425-05:002019-12-20T12:10:40.425-05:00Wow, what a beauty, I love it!Wow, what a beauty, I love it!Frédérique - Quilting Patchwork Appliquéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15307507105646376697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1228319710577550585.post-53510752485665686232019-12-20T09:52:36.641-05:002019-12-20T09:52:36.641-05:00I've been waiting for this one, and the wait w...I've been waiting for this one, and the wait was so worth it. It looks glorious under the tree, and I'm sure your daughter is thrilled. I love the stars and the fabrics, and the quilting is magnificent. It turned out bigger than I had imagined, but that size is perfect for the tree. Love the poncho model!<br />I thought about you when I was quilting this week and kept telling myself to slow down, it isn't a race - your quilting is inspiring!<br />Enjoy your holiday season.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786068334983762178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1228319710577550585.post-57356853022684015942019-12-20T09:17:31.504-05:002019-12-20T09:17:31.504-05:00What a lovely tree skirt!
