We are now onto wonky trees in the Wonky Swap and here is my prototype...
It started out with a quick sketch like this
I am trying out strip piecing the tree from scraps, curvey piecing the background and appliqueing the trunk. It wasn't too hard though I'm glad my background was initially larger than it needed to be so I could trim down to a regular rectangle shape - still had to piece a bit in though!
Am liking it so far but I need to make 16 trees altogether - 8 green and 8 any other colour. As you can see I have my trunks and foliage - I just need a bit of background and some patience to finish my forest!
I am enjoying my playtime with these! Bit Dr Seuss meets Edward Lear - wonder if the Quangle Wangle is in one of these or could it be the Lorax!?

Oh and once I finish trees I need to make a wonky house for my quilt and one for Bee Blessed. Apparently all the Pippi's we made last month need homes poor things!
The Wonkiness carries on here chez Mrs Sew & Sow! Jump in - you know you want to!
Oh and just to make you a little bit green - I ordered and received the WHOLE COLOUR RANGE OF KONA SOLIDS. It has arrived ! Yippee!
