Where's the Fox?

The quilt has straight line quilting stitches for the grassy area and borders.
Cloud shapes are quilted in the sky area (batik fabric).
The tree trunk, limbs, and leaves are outlined quilted.

I made this quilt for my niece's son, Hunter James Stephenson, born Feb 18, 2015.
She has a Winnie the Pooh Hundred Acre Wood theme for her nursery.  This is the third quilt made with this theme in mind.

Claire's quilt

Tami sent me a picture of a quilt upon which to base my design.  Every quilt has had a tree as the main focus.  This time she wanted a fox in the quilt as well.  She requested creams, sage green, butter yellow, and gray as the color scheme.  I designed the quilt with a trio of white birch trees.  (Birch trees are usually planted with at least three trees together.)  I used our birch trees in the front yard as inspiration and took a leaf from the tree to design the leaf motif.

I appliqued a silver fox.

The leaf fabrics were used in the two previous quilts made for Tami's two daughters.
I used a birch tree leaf to draw the leaf shape.

I found a modern print incorporating the gray/yellow/cream color scheme for the backing fabric.

I added a smaller fox applique to the quilt label.
