The second sister quilt is done! This quilt surely did not want to cooperate for pictures! It took three outings to get any photos at all to use. Even then, my only straight shot of the whole thing had to be done in the house. Here it is along with an avalanche of shots.
I quilted the initials of my sister and her husband into the trunk along with the year of their marriage. 
I quilted the names of their children into the branches.
All quilting was done freehand with Glide thread. I used 80/20 Pellon Legacy batting.
I was able to give this to her in person last weekend. I think she liked it!

Love it!!! It turned out so wonderfully awesome.
Your quilt turned out great and the quilting was just right.
That quilt turned out so well! It is pretty obvious she is happy to have a quilt made especially for her.
I agree with everything said in all the other comments! The tree quilt is gorgeous and the quilting is amazing! Hugs,
It’s perfect in every way! I love that you “carved” their initials in the trunk of the tree. That was so clever. Your sister looks so cute snuggled under it. All I can say is BRAVO, my friend. This was such a work of love.
Oh my gosh simply gorgeous ,beautiful,fantastic. But then I don’t think you’ve ever done a quilt i didn’t fall in love with.
Beautiful colors. The quilting is spectacular. Congrats on another beautiful finish.

Of course she liked it! That’s no surprise to me. I love the quilting you did on it. Fabulous – as always.
What a great quilt! When you showed your plan, I didn’t think I would like it, but it turned out great! I’m sure it mean a lot to your sister. Thanks for sharing.
This is beautiful!!
The quilting on this one is fantastic and really complements the quilt design. Well done! Bet she loves it.
Love, love, love. The pictures from the railing turned out beautifully, too. I’m especially drawn to the dense quilting and names in the branches.
I love everything about this quilt. Blue Ribbon for you!!
They really need to give us colored ribbons in the emoticons!!
I could only find a pink bow,,,
Wouldn’t that type of setting look wonderful with an eagle and flag in the place of the tree for a QOV .?
What a beautiful treasure for your sister. It’s nice to see she’s already snuggling up with it.
What a treasure, I know your sister is thrilled! Great finish!
So love how this turned out. Great quilt and quilting.
