Swerve!


That is the direction I took this in last night!  And I am so incredibly excited about it.  Here is the only place you will see these pictures, because I am going to have the new idea done enough that it will be amazing at Vega's shower next Saturday....wish me luck!



So far I have removed the pieced squares, and took them apart.  Carefully, so I can reuse them.  The new plan is to piece a tree to have the birds in and around.  It is going to be amazing!  COme back and check in tomorrow to see the progress. I have drawn the tree but I have not taken a picture yet.  I will iron the pieces and lay out a few squares and then begin piecing.  At least by next Saturday I can have the tree basted down to the center.  For the first time in this project I am excited about this quilt in a real way.  I bough the batting for it today as well.  Hopefully by Thanksgiving I can be quilting it....starting to formulate those ideas as well.  Let me know if you have any thoughts as to what some quilting designs could be.
