Tree choices
The questions of the evening are...
Thin tree or thicker tree? And, willow foliage or regular deciduous foliage for it? (The flat brown color is just a place-holder. The actual bark will be warm mottled brown.) The tree on the right go a little cropped, so see the b&w sketch below for the full shape.

Helpers
This is Calypso, she's such a good helper! The sky is quilted (and my arms are stiff because I'm out of practice quilting larger pieces). Time to start thinking about the tree that'll go next to the door.

Quilting
The quilting phase has started! Still using my small 20+ year old Bernina, and picking out almost two dozen spools of thread.
