What a nice variety, but what a challenge to assemble them into a quilt. I'll be really anxious to see what you do with them.

Nice looking leaves, everyone. Good color choices that go together well.

Those all look very nice! Love the variety!

Here is the first rendition of the wall hanging. It is on my ironing board and I have trouble getting a straight picture. If you have any suggestions for improvement, let me know.

I was thinking neutral background and green binding.

It looks great! Like the layout.

Nice job, Beverly. I love the irregularity of the green frames.

Ditto what Lois said, the irregularity of the frames and the color...Well Done!

Nice job, Beverly! I like the green frames.

Here is the finished top. The border will not be this wide, I always make them wide then trim after quilting. The greens are from all the strips you wonderful ladies have sent me over the years. Tomorrow I will try to get it in the frame and quilt.

Lovely

Love it! Thanks so much for taking your time to make this quilt!

What a fantastic quilt, Beverly. I love your border fabric. When I saw all those disparate leaves, I thought you could never make a beautiful quilt out of them, but you absolutely did. Great work. Thank you.

Very attractive.

Wow...your arrangement of the leaves, the green framing and that border fabric...Perfect! Can't wait to see it I person!

I am glad I tuned it after all the different steps. Fun to see you thought process. Nicely done. Not always an easy task putting things together like that and you did a wonderful job with the layout. Congratulations. TFS

Oh, that looks so nice. So sorry I didn't get one done and sent to you. :( This has been such a crazy year (I know we all get them every now and then) that I haven't been able to get anything done that I really want to get done. It is DEFINITELY time to retire!

WendyFaye, I sent a canadian maple leaf to Beverly just for you!

WendyFaye, you under estimate our sneakiness.

Haha, I sure do. Thanks so much, really looking forward to seeing you all again. :)

The quilt looks great! Good job! I will really miss all the fun of Retreat this year - can't believe I won't be seeing you all in a couple weeks.

We will miss you! I sent in the palm leaves for you and the aspen leaf for Sue :)

Oh Jackie! That's so nice!!! Thank you!

We will miss you Kate.

Next year, no matter what else is going on.
