I love the Art Deco-ish look of this version of the Weeping Willow Tree, a vintage quilt block pattern that's attributed to a few different publications from the 1930's. Willow trees are early leafers, and where I live they always signal the arrival of spring, although they sometimes get zapped by a cold spell.
The Weeping Willow quilt block pattern makes a big block that finishes at 30-inches square. Use the block as-is or add a border or two to make it a slightly larger wallhanging. You could also make a table throw from the block or put the tree at the center of a medallion quilt.
