Freefall Spring QAL

Sandra @ Musings of Menopausal Melon is hosting a quilt along -- Freefall Spring QAL.  Instructions are provided every two weeks, and there's still time to join in.  I missed the first progress link up, but I've managed to catch up.

The first eight blocks are 8-inches square.  I used some batiks I had in my stash for the leaves.


Here are closeups of a few of my favourites:





And to show that the snow is all gone, some leaves in the wild.



I'm linking up my progress here.

    Great autumnal colours, Anja.
    I made a similar quilt (just add stems to the leaves) a few years ago in traditional fabrics and it is still a favourite on our couch.

    You are so prolific Anja. I love batiks, these are beautiful autumn shades, the leaves stand out beautifully on the background too.

    Anja! LOVE your color choices for this QAL! Very striking. I wish I had not signed up for 3 Stash Bees as I think i would have more time for things like this if I hadn't! :)
