This is one of my most favorite quilts, and was done with my beloved stash of Hoffman, RJR, SSI, and Kaufman fabrics, to name a few. It was made and donated for a raffle for the West Wind Art Gallery, sometime between 1997-2005. I'm thinking 1999, but am not sure. It does not appear in my Jewels of the Platte show before 1998, and I'm not sure it ever was shown in public. If it was, I'll eat cabbage. ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
If you have never seen a tree quilt quite like this one, it's because I designed it on graph paper and calculated the cutting it would take prior to making it, and I looked through all the references available to me including 3 books on tree quilts in my personal collection. I did teach a free quilt class on the block, however, for the Silver Fox Quilters, a senior class I taught as a gift to the community.
