More Roundhouse pictures...

I promised more and better pictures of the Roundhouse quilt. Today is one of those beutiful autum days and in lieu of my private oath to take the time to make better pictures,  I took DH, two quilts and my camera for a walk today. He's the only one tall enough to hold up the quilts :)

We live in a beautiful area - shame on me for not exploring that more often. This lake is about 200 meters from our house in the middle of the forrest. In the summer there is a small beach and a wooden bridge to jump into the water from. The bridge has already been taken down for winter though.

I brought both the Roundhouse quilt and the Dresden flowers quilt.

The background on the Roundhouse quilt is just plain polka dots in blue - it works great with such a busy front.

When I took pictures of the Dresden flowers a familiy of swans joined the party

Just behind the lake, there's a little pond filled by a water stream from the forrest. I love how the quilt is refected in the pond.

What a wonderful, beautiful day it is...

  2. Thank goodness for a tall mister! You photos are stunning and worthy of pattern covers. Love the swans in the one photo and the distance of the last photo. Awesome.

  3. That quilt reflected in the pond is divine! Glad you had a nice day for the photo shoot. I may have turned in to a no reply blogger in my last comment - hopefully this one works OK?
