I pulled out a stack of Chocolat fat quarters by Moda that my friend Julie had given me last year. I have been saving them for the perfect quilt. I was having a hard time choosing what pattern to use. I wanted leaves... like this quilt
And I liked the log cabin too! Like this one...
I pulled fabrics from my stash to piece the back together, I like how it turned out. And it used up some stash that has been sitting for awhile. My friend Barbara quilted it for me on her longarm. She knows Denice too, so it was a gift we both gave her. So sweet. Barbara quilted an allover swirling leaves pattern on it using a yummy gold colored thread. She is so good at quilting!

BEAUTIFUL!!!
That quilt came out beautifully. Quite frankly even though it could be used for Christmas, it also reminds me of the bright red leaves on some of the trees in the fall. She'll be able to keep it out through both seasons (if not all year). It's too pretty to put away.
oh my, that turned out beautifully!! I love your choice of colors.
Heather, your quilt is beautiful. I alway love pieced backings. What a wonderful gift for your friend.
I also love the winter quilt in your other post...great design, greg colors, great machine quilting. You have become a pro. :D
Hope all is well with you and your family!
Just beautiful! It is a gift that is sure to be treasured!!!
What a beautiful gift!!! The fabrics are beautiful and perfect for the pattern. It was fun seeing your process of choosing the pattern and its great that you found one that combined leaves and log cabins!! Wonderful quilting too!!
She must have been thrilled. D, that is.
