I really hope you're not tired of seeing this quilt top. I've been showing it to you step by tiny step. I'm thinking that this is a noteworthy step however, so here's a picture.Borders have been added, so the top is finished. It does need a really good press, and then I can baste it ready for quilting. I had hoped to be further along by now, but I do know I can have it finished in time for the suprise presentation.
The kids and I had fun at the movies yesterday - we saw the new Simpsons movie. Of course the kids loved it, and I enjoyed it too. The cinema was really full, I haven't seen it that busy in a little while. When we came out of the theatre, the queue was huge, we're glad we went to an earlyish session.
Nothing much more of note happening here ... I'll catch up with you all soon! x o x

The "Tree Quilt" looks wonderful and will be a special surprise for the lucky recipient. I really like the cornerstones in the framing strips. They give a nice little splash of colour and tie the blocks together well.
This quilt is so gorgeous, Tazzie ! Absolutely stunning... a treasure to cherish !
Not to speak about the one published in my last "Australian P&Q" issue, which I got last Friday ! Congratulations, dear, you deserve it and I'm soooo rpoud to know you !

The tree quilt has looked great the whole way along, but I think the border adds the perfect finish. Lovely. Where did you get this particular version of the tree block, is it an online one? I'd love to know!
Hi, Tazzie! It looks so pretty! I love seeing intricate blocks like this all assembled in a top.
Beautiful quilt... looks like a real stash buster too!!! The different colored half triangle blocks remind me of the leaves with changing seasons...
It's beautiful and I don't get tired of seeing it! I've been planning a miniature quilting using the pine tree block. You quilt reminds me to get to it!
Just beautiful. I have enjoyed seeing the progression. Thnak-you.
I never tire of seeing a beautiful quilt!!
That quilt looks really great, Tazzie! Good job getting it put together!
What a beautiful quilt, Tazzie! Great job!!
I'm not tired of seeing it either - it's a beautiful quilt. Congrats on getting it all assembled!
I wouldn't get tired of this treasure, if I looked at it every day. Just beautiful!
Your tree quilt is wonderful and I never get tired of seeing pictures of it.
It is so fun to watch a quilt growing from one block to the finished top to the quilted and bound project. You can't share too many pictures as far as I'm concerned!
Oh, wow, its as wonderful as I had thought it would be, maybe more! I just love it. I want it! LOL!
Hello Tazzie,

I'm not tired of seeing this top at all - love seeing them progress from piles of fabrics to finished quilts. It's looking great :)
Tazzie, this is an exceptionally wonderful quilt. I am intimidated by piecing that with all the diagnonal seams. You have done a beautiful job of sewing it and it is stunning.

Wonderful job, Tazzie!!! You must be proud of yourself!
Fabulous!!! I love the tree of Life and yours is close to the best I have seen.
I just saw your sewing mat, I did one for a friend a month or so ago, I hadn't seen any others around. i love how you pieced yours, mine was done in an overnight rush for gift!

It's looking great Tazzie. You are so fast. I love your friend's quilt with the bowties - the little diamonds look great.
Just love those trees. You've been very busy while I've been away, Tazzie!
