Leaves!

These are the fabrics I chose for my 16 leaves, in the Bee in my Bonnet Row Along, row 7.

Don't the squares looks so pretty all laid out on my design board?

There are 11 pieces for each leaf and sashing in between each leaf block.  There is a lot of pressing, measuring and cutting to make 16 leaves!

Originally, each leaf had two prints of the same color.  Since my rows have such bright colors, I thought I would shake it up a bit by pairing up different colors on each leaf half.  I thought it might be too normal with two leaves with the same color and print on each row. 

Do you see what I mean?

I have a yellow leaf and then a pink/red one, a red leaf and an orange/yellow one, etc.

16 leaves, all in a row!

Row #7, added to my design wall, er....wall!
