Catching up - Micaela's May tree for Shauna

I just completed Shauna's tree last night - luckily she is very forgiving with timing :)


Here it is: I also couldn't resist adding some tiny owls!


I was inspired by Shauna's love of circles and also the fall colours at my parents' cottage - this is an oak just behind the cottage.

We also found out some sad tree-related news when we arrived here last week. The big white pine that we see as we look out towards the lake came down in a storm a few weeks ago. We will miss it.
Here it is in its glory:

I'm also looking forward to working on Doris' blocks - I promise I won't be late on those ones :)

  3. So glad that you are posting again, Micaela! That was such a great idea to cut the centers out of your circles and overlap them. Sorry to hear about the wonderful pine tree falling down.
