Another quilt done! Done, done, done!
Yee haw!
I'm always on the lookout for a place to take photos of my quilts and this spot has been on my list for a couple of years now. This is on a bridge on our cottage road. There will be more quilt photos taken here, so be prepared to see this spot often .... until the snow flies. LOL
I so wanted to capture the beauty of this spot. How about my quilt on the rocks? Jeesh ... that sounds like a drink!
While I was busy snapping photos, my sister was snapping me in action. Ha!
How about over the bridge railing? The other side of the railing is even more beautiful and that will be the spot for another quilt soon.
How about at the cottage hanging on the old shed door?
What about laying in a field of daises and buttercups? You are probably thinking that the quilt got dirty being laid out in all those different spots. It will get washed soon. Just not today.
All these photos were quickly taken as the MOSQUITOS were horrendous!
Even the wildlife can't stand them. On our way home from the cottage, there was a moose standing in the middle of the highway. Wouldn't move until it was ready. What a sight to see and not a camera at hand to snap that photo. Oh my, what a lost opportunity.
My quilt is a split apple core. I just made the apple cores a bit bigger (3" x 4-1/4" finished). Once the cores were all sewn together, they were then appliqued onto a strip of green fabric. Apples + green peel = Granny Smith. That is how my quilt name came to be. LOL
