Nothing less to expect on a fantastic long weekend in Ontario driving bumper to bumper up north. A true exodus of the city slickers.
Invitation to barbecues and tasting homemade wine, meeting new people and having our son drop in with their friends made the weekend special.
Having said that I really wanted to finish my shadow star quilt. I took a class at Country Concessions in Cookstown to learn the technique with the Deb Tucker ruler to make the perfect flying geese.
One of the girls came with her sewing machine strapped to her Harley Davidson bike. That's dedication!
This vibrant quilt top against the barn stone foundation makes my heart jump. I used Kona for the background, Anna Marie Horner, Alexander Henry fly screen ( can't have enough of it) and Lilly Belle by Barie Ackerman.
In one of the wall openings I have a buddha sitting. I think the mood with the sunlight speaks for itself.
You can have a better quilting weekend than this!
beautiful!!
