I thought you might enjoy seeing Lollipop Tree done in these soft woodland colors.

This won best fabric selection at the Springville Quilt Show (Springville Utah) recently. It is made by Chris Coffin Manning.

    Lovely to see a different colour selection. It shows that a great pattern can be made with several fabrics!

    Thanks for sharing this photo, Robin. This subdued and very controlled color palette is admirable and so lovely.

    Isn't it lovely and restful to look at, it seems quite a different quilt from the bright Lollipop Tree quilts we usually see.

    Congratulations to Chris. A great new look--it feels like a whole new quilt and a very appealing one at that.

    Such a different look! It's such a good example of how the fabrics used can really change the look of a pattern. This one has a more "masculine" feel to me.

    it is really beautiful, I love the colors, Totally the opposite colorway of what I chose. It just goes to show that we could find beauty no matter what colors or fabrics we choose.

    Very lovely! I really like it.

    Is that the quilt show that is held in the Springville Museum? I went to one there maybe 12 years ago and remember that the quilts were wonderful.

    It's such a treat to see the Lollipops in this colour scheme, it's really beautiful. Chris was very clever by her use of the accent colours. Thanks Robin.
