Tipsy Trees: A Tale of 2 Quilts

(This photo is darker than the actual quilt, which has a much lighter background in the tree blocks,)

A friend and I spent black Friday far from the shopping mall, making string-pieced tree blocks from fabrics in her stash and scraps. Here are the tops we made.

I love this idea for a string pieced quilt. I just quilted a string top on Sunday - but the more traditional variety of square with strips sewn on the diagonal - one of Jill's swaps on the forum. But I love the trees and the eclectic framing, instead of them all standing like little soldiers in the forest.
