detail of stitching
This piece has a lot of quilting on it and took me awhile to do. Although you may not be able to tell, there are three different variegated threads in the blue areas. On the birches, I also used three different colors of thread. There are hand stitches on the birches and in the blue areas.

Thanks for playing along! Birches are the quintessential blue white and black, aren't they?! Nicely done. I like your hand stitched details.
Ooh! Thanks for playing with us! This is lovely -- such strong lines, gorgeous colors, great stitching. I wish I could see it in person!
Lisa,
This piece is just beautiful! Great work you have been doing lately. Also, thanks for coming to the swap; it was nice to see you!

Beautiful, Lisa! The birches are a natural, but so nicely done. Not cliche birches at all.
This is lovely.
Very lovely! It's so fun to see another quilt following the color schemes from the Twelve by Twelve group.
