I hope you all enjoyed a wonderful Mother's day weekend! It was peaceful here at the farm. Sunday the sun broke through the clouds long enough for me to enjoy a great beach walk. That is until a storm blew in quite quickly! It rained before I could get home...
This morning, we walked down to the new cottage location.
He's done a lot of trimming! The birch, maple and spruce trees will love the added light!
I look for treasures of the sea... small driftwood pieces, sea glass, unusual rocks... I call this one the Medusa tree... it'll be awhile before the sand gives this one up.
Some insect bored it's way around this branch
and along the trunk.
Seaweed covered the beach... that doesn't happen every day...
This reminded me it was time to head back home and load Lolah!! What a great feather design.
At Christmas, I was gifted with a software program called Quilter's Creative Design and decided to try it. One fabric on the quilt has red hearts on a white background so I chose the hearts. The beauty of this software is that you can size the design to the quilt whether it's for a pantograph or an individual block. I entered the width of the quilt top and the size I wanted the design then printed the panto.
I call this one Hearts On A Rail... another top I purchased last summer at the local quilt fair.
The ocean smelled wonderful this morning. It gave up some lovely treasures; it's not often that we find blue sea glass on this side of the peninsula. Reds are even rarer.
My time on the beach rejuvenated me enough to load Lolah and finish quilting this beauty in one afternoon! I love that!
