Curvy Geese Trees Quilt

January 9, 2015 by persimondreams 18 Comments

At this point this post is going to be fairly bare bones … I’ll come back and add more details in tomorrow or Sunday.  I was super lucky to get a go through a great 2015 cleanse this morning via the stomach flu. But – I really wanted to share with you my Project QUILTING quilt. IMG_6858I call it ‘Curvy Geese Trees’ (unless Trisha has a better name she’d like to suggest …)  I was inspired by the Project QUILTING ‘Tree’ Challenge AND IMG_6863-001 the Prairie Heritage Quilt Guild ‘Curves’ challenge.  We had to incorporate the chevron red/yellow/blue/green/orange fabric into our design that also followed the theme ‘curves’.  I used Jeli Quilts’ Double Goose Paper Pieced pattern to create my geese trees. IMG_6864 I love my little geese trees!  I have one that just used the inner geese for one small tree. IMG_6868 And then I did a double geese for the bigger trees. IMG_6870 I free motion quilted the quilt using my Bernina 750 IMG_6854 and three different shades of Aurifil thread. UPDATE 1/10/15 IMG_6873 Turns out … I wasn’t quite done with my quilt when I posted this on Friday.  This quilt wasn’t finished until I added a little glitz … IMG_6874 Some sequins to be precise.  They add just the right amount of pop!

    This is just stunning! I would never have thought to use the geese as trees. Thank you so much for tagging me, I absolutely love seeing my patterns in the wild.
