This was my second maple leaf--I had most of the blocks made and searched for the best orange for the setting strips and border. I found this beautiful Princess Mirah batik when I was on jury duty in the Land Beyond Ohare (what we Chicago types call where I tend to get lost),
It is being held by a nice young man from New Zealand who is visiting with my nephew. They teach English in Korea and are watching Korean soap operas on tv this morning before heading downtown.

Love the maple leaf quilts, I have made a couple. My favorite is still waiting to be quilted!
This is beautiful!! Thanks for sharing it.
I see that ghosty block again... :-)
Oh Lynn, both quilts are wonderful and seem so different yet both like fall!
I love your quilt, someday I will aspire to get to that. Im working on a 9 patch now and just learning my way. That is absolutely beautiful....

Ohh, I like both of those maple leaf quilts! Especially the ghost leaf. Neat idea. :)
Hello Lynn, I just wanted to say that I love looking at your quilts, they are just wonderful!
It would be impossible to pick out a favourite. Please keep 'em coming to inspire us all.
Hi there, I found you through a link somewhere.
I'm new to quilting and am loving it!!
Great blog, I'll be back again! Your quilts are beautiful!
Have a great day! :)
The batik is beautiful...really sets off the blocks. One of my first quilts was a maple leaf - originally I'm from New England so it remains a favorite!

I like maple leaf quilts and yours are great. Thanks for sharing and what helpful quilt holders you have.
Hi! I have family in Elmhurst. I just found your blog on the Quilt Mavericks site. We are stationed in Korea for the next two years due to DH being in the Air Force. I just wanted to write and tell you that your quilt is lovely!! Thanks for the enjoyable read!

I've done several maple leaves quilts in the past, and yours is most beautiful dear. I really like the fabrics that you chose to use in your quilt. Have fun quilting!
Your maple leaf quilt is very pretty, and the fabrics are great.
