Custom Tree Quilt Step 2

After sketching the quilt out in my sketch book and getting all of the main details narrowed down I then transfer that image onto freezer paper in the actual size of the quilt.

This quilt will end up measuring 50"x55" and will have a 3" border of a colored fabric (yet to be determined).


This particular quilt is for an engagement gift so where the trunk spreads to the branches it has the couples names and their wedding date.  At the base of the trunk one leg has their engagement date and the other has the anniversary of when they began dating.

The next steps go very quickly so I will be posting several times over the next few days as I put this fabulous quilt together.
