Our current challenge in the San Diego group is trees. I have done a lot of tree quilts over the years and there are quite a few in the Thomas Contemporary Quilt Collection. I looked through the 12"X12" pieces in the Collection and picked out these six to post tonight. As you see they are mostly parts of trees; roots, leaves, fruit, and whole trees. Everyone sees the subject in their own way and I am always delighted to see someone's vision. The bottom quilt by Caroline Higgs is an amazing fused applique which is machine quilted around each leaf, twig, and trunk. You can find the artist's name on the sidebar and click to find more information about the maker and the quilt.
