WIP Wednesday

I finally made some progress on my doll quilt for DQS 10.  I really wanted to try something out of my comfort zone for the swap so I chose applique. 

I cut the tree shape a few weeks ago using my Cricut and finished cutting the leaves this weekend.  The Cricut worked well for cutting through the fabric…any issues I had were purely due to operator error!  

I have lots of leaves left over so I’m debating adding more.  What do you think? 

For right now I’m going to leave it as is, and add the borders – green patchwork along the bottom and blue patchwork around the sides and top.  I plan on mostly using Central Park by Kate Spain for Moda but might supplement in some additional fabric as I go.
