There are 7 rows in this quilt. The next row should go a little faster since there are more pieced blocks in this row than applique.
Last week I said I'd show you some of the trees around our home. The sky was very overcast and dreary when I took the photos so they aren't as brilliant colored as when the sun shines directly on them.
There is a chartreuse undertone which adds a lovely contrast to the orange leaves.
Wouldn't these colors make a lovely quilt?
This old maple is huge!
She's already lost a lot of her leaves but she adds so much color contrast to the other trees along the lane.

Oh thank you for showing your beautiful trees. I do miss the fall color now that we live in Texas. Maples just can't take our climate! Your quilt is going to be stunning!
Oh how I miss the leaves changing color. Thanks for sharing and love how the quilt is coming along.
Your leaves are gorgeous! But your quilt is even better...lol.
Beautiful fall colours to enjoy... mother nature sure does put on a great show!
Enjoyed seeing your quilting update!
Gorgeous stitching, and beautiful colors of the fall pictures!
I love your quilt shots for your post this week and your colors in chartreuse and light green and gold are great! Are you getting the cold weather we are? We are in the 30's now but in the 20's each morning when I wake! Kathi
Since much hand quilting was accomplished, I can understand your lack of inspiration. However, the quilt is absolutely lovely and the colors are charming. The hand quilting adds so much. Hope you get inspired so your stitching becomes more enjoyable.
Glad to get my weekly dose of hand quilting inspiration! Your trees are lovely, I know you enjoy that view in the fall!
I just love how the hand quilting makes the quilt seem to come to life. I know myself that near the middle of hand quilting a quilt, I get a bit bored and want to do something else. I persevere and before you know it the quilt it done. Would love to get one on the frame, maybe it will happen this week!!!
Your hand quilting is fabulous this is going to be a stunning quilt.
We had some lovely fall colors, but then the rain storms came and stole them all away!
I love the way you're quilting your gorgeous quilt! It's going to be a stunner!
There are so many lovely colors of Fall leaves that I would just love to pick up a bunch and take them to a quilt shop and march them up to fabric!!
Your hand quilting is so immaculate, Gretchen and of course, all the points are perfect. So lovely. Your landscape looks just like ours here in rural Ontario.
your quilting is so lovely as always and the trees so beautiful
Wow, your Floral Triangles project is really LOVELY! Your autumn color is gorgeous, too! What a great view you enjoy! :)
I wish I lived close to you Gretchen, as I would love to see your beautiful handquilted quilts. Photos never do them justice. Your Floral Triangles is fabulous!
Looking good Gretchen. I love the pictures of the trees with the golden leaves! I really miss seeing and enjoying the change of seasons. When I lived in Virginia it was so nice to watch the seasons change - even the blizzard, ice, and snow during the winters! Hugs
Your hand quilting is beautiful. Slow and steady wins the race every time. :-)

The Alice in Wonderland twist on the Celebrating Mary Brown quilt is a challenge but fun.

Floral Triangles was on my bucket list to make Gretchen and I was surprised to see they know longer sell it???? Oh well I will just have to make up a design of my own instead. Love love the colours you have used in yours and it is looking even more beautiful as you quilt it. Cheers Glenda
