About A Soft Package and Some Trees

For a long time now I've been wanting to make a Bottled Rainbows quilt.  So finally I just ordered the Kona fabrics for it, and they arrived yesterday!  (LOVE getting those soft packages in the mail!) 
Here they are in all of their yummy-colored goodness:
I ordered them from Marmalade Fabrics, who has packaged them in fat-quarter or half-yard bundles expressly for the Bottled Rainbows quilt.  Never ordered from them before but received great service: ordered online on Saturday, the bundle was shipped on Monday and I had it on Wednesday.  Complete with a nice thank you note.  Sorry to sound like an advertisement, but am just a happy customer. 
So now I can begin my first mosaic-tile quilt!  As soon as I finish the rest of my class samples...

Speaking of class samples, I finished my trees!  They look considerably better in their decorative-stitch-finery. (Am enjoying stringing words together with hyphens tonight, apparently.)
Here you can see three trees:
Yes, I stippled them all...fastest way to quilt samples.  

Now am off to sleep since it is 12:12 AM here.  Am gettin' too old to be a night-owl.

Happy Days!
