| Lone Pine |
I
have a confession to make: I may have witched up yesterday's winter
ice event. Inadvertently, of course.
Last
week I finished two winter quilts. Lone Pine has bright white
decorative stitching along the branches to represent ice or snow.
Oops! I made this 16” x 18” wall mat with half rectangle
triangles of greens with a beige/cream print. I channel stitched
around the tree and added a binding of green.

| Snow Pine |
Snow
Pine is larger at 27 ½” x 32 ½” and made up of stacked shoo fly
blocks in varying shades of green from my scrap basket, with solid
white background. I channel quilted this one in 1” intervals.
I
love snow but the ice caused us to lose power for a couple of hours
and we have several pine branches on the ground. It didn't seem like
that much ice but my favorite weeping willow tree is twisted and
broken at the top from the weight.
Maybe
I should get back to beach themed quilts for the rest of the
winter...
