fall progress
I've been working furiously to get as much of my leaf quilt done since I won't be able to devote my hour a day from Denver. I had DH set up my design wall before I left and I took this on my new wall to show that I have actually been working on my quilt. I have over half of the alternate blocks totally put together and the parts are all made for the rest. All my parts for leaves are put together, but I decided that I wanted to do my stems differently. I thought it made them look more windblown. I did bring the stem squares to do handwork while I am here. Hopefully, when I get home I will be ready to put my blocks together.

It looks good up there on the new wall! I like your stems, too. That's the fun thing about Judy's projects - the personalization that each person does.
Ohh, your stems look a lot better than my straight ones do. :)
I like the scrappy leaf colors too, I was a stick-in-the-mud and did them all one color!
the stems are great -- they are much more wind blown with that little curve in them!
Looks good. I like your stem method -- more like how leaves occur in real life.
I love the look of your stems. The quilt is going to be great.
I love the stems on your version. What a great idea to make your quite unique! And also a great idea for a portable project while you are travelling!
I agree with everyone else, those stems are perfect!! Not stiff and stright like th eoriginal ones. They do have a more playful dnacing effect, sort of liek the leaves are really blowing!! Good choice!
Your curved stem is the first thing that caught my eye too! I agree - they will look windblown! You are so creative! :c)
I like your mix of orange fabrics too. Have a safe trip! ~Bonnie
Love your curved stems. I'll look forward to watching your progress. Have you worked on any of the stems while you're gone?

i also like the curved stems you are doing for your leaves. Look forward to seeing more of your leaves.
Curved stems are such an excellent idea. The one in the picture looks so real! It is going to add a lot to your quilt.
Great idea on the stems - and the scrappy looking leaf is very nice.
