I do love me some tree blocks!

I designed these blocks to go in between the houses

of my Town Square quilt in the

 Quilty Fun Book

They are fun to make and a great way to use

some of the fun greens that are in your scrappy stash:)

This side of the Quilty Fun Sampler is growing!!!...

It's fun to see everyones addition to the quilt weekly…

here on the quilty fun flickr page:)

Here's the sampler quilt before I added the outside borders…

I thought you might like to see it so that you can be

 thinking about which color and print that you will use for yours:)

Seeing it without the borders gives a good visual in 

deciding which color you might want to bring out.

This is a scrappy quilt with many colors to choose from ...

I chose to use aqua in the end because I felt that I had a lot of warm colors

and so a cool tone like a green or a blue would balance it out nicely:)

Of course we will talk more about this when it comes time…

just giving you something to think about

while you are having a 

quilty kind of day:)
