Tree of Inspiration!

This tree I pass each work day four times…it has a personality to me.  It is an apple tree, but often is quite sparse…and it hangs on to a few leaves long after the rest are gone.  One year it had apples long into winter.  This is the tree that inspired the tree in one of my latest quilts.

Her branches seem to flow in one direction….I like that.

Funny, how there are certain nature spots along the way that become like familiar friends….and they change with the seasons and yet stay the same.

Here is a closer view with the few leaves on her limbs. 

And, the fabric image….she inspired.

    Beth,
    You absolutely “nailed” the essence of that tree in your latest quilt. Fabulous. It is like the painters who paint what they see —http://painting.about.com/od/landscapes/a/plein_air_paint.htm
    You are doing that so well with fabric!
    Love it.
