Inspiration….from the flower beds



Most of the inspiration for my quilted textiles

comes from my surroundings here at home…



Here is a bit of inspiration from the flower beds:



Pink Asian Lily




















Calla Lily




















Red Dahlia






Metal Bed frames make great flower fencing






Grape Arbor


I am always happy to share a bit of inspiration.

You are welcome to use my images 

for your personal art work.

The rain has shut down our hay making for now.

Gunnr isn't spending time in the hay field...


He is spending time napping with his Buffalo Quilt...






Nothing beats a good nap when it is raining outdoors...

Sunset in the Hay Field...



After dinner we decided to take a drive to the hay field




Mary's Peak








The tallest peak in the coastal mountain range








Our little valley sits at the foot of Mary's Peak


There is a rosy glow here tonight…






We reached the hay field just as the sun was setting…















We spotted a doe just across from the hay field







The sky put on a show for us…







Check out the rear view mirror…







It was a beautiful evening for a drive…







Gunnr tends to be a bit of a back-seat driver

Making Hay…..not Quilts



No, I am not making Quilts…


We are making Hay~


I haven't been hearing the hum of my sewing machine.


More like the roar of tractors in the hay fields.





Delbert…….raking hay











































Brad……baling hay





























My Favorite Dog……Gunnr







My Favorite Man and My Favorite Dog




If I can't be at my sewing machine…

then this is where I'd rather be!
