Swamp Maple is gorgeous. It deserved its first place.
Aaaah....love the dimensional feel of your Swamp Maple! :)
I love your Maple quilt, leaves are beautiful. Love the quilting in your rainbow too!
the tree is lovely and 3d leaves! Nice
WOW! stunning!
Love both of your quilts, both very different, you have many talents. Great job.
Wow! That tree is amazing! Nice work!
Beautiful piece of art! I like the way it looks like a window, and the sky is so subtle, just the right shade for autumn. I also feel an urge to make a quilt with autumn leaves every year :)))
Fabulous quilt. Thanks for sharing, so much inspiration here.
Beautiful. And love the leaves too.
Gorgeous! I love the 3D effect. I imagine that using silk really adds to it. I noticed that the sky is made from leaf blocks, but it's so subtle!
Both quilts are gorgeous. You are very talented!

Maple tree speak strong. I know there was much work involved for looks simple and beautiful. The hand dyed fabrics are beautiful and the quilting is amazing.
