Tuesday night two more trees grew and four more were prepared for sewing. It is a paper pieced pattern that is somewhat on the small scale side. The tree block finishes is 3 1/2" x 6 1/4". The entire project will finish at 22 1/2" x 37 1/2". It probably doesn't appear like it, but that border is composed of three different patterns not including the corners. The neutrals are shades of beige on the yellow/gold side. It may look odd having a few darker fabrics in these first trees, but those darker fabrics will be picked up a few times throughout the entire project. Thanks to my Sister and Sister-in-Law Barbara a few years ago this quilt already has a name selected. Kamp Kastles...I believe they did a great job transforming Jeweled Forest into a "K" name...don't you?
I'm running a bit behind where I'd like to be in the progression of this months challenge. Keep your fingers crossed for me only a couple of weeks before D-Day!

Oh, this is a beauty! I would never have guessed that the trees are so tiny. I had the wheels turning trying to select a name for this and then I read that you already had one. That's great!
I agree with Janet O. I had no idea the trees were small. I love the turquoise (or blue) one. This will be another nice one. I know you will finish it on time lol
