We're out and about again as the weather is playing kinder today. In the background is Lihou island which is only reachable when the tide is out and you make your way across the makeshift causeway.
The one house you can see is the only house on the island and is owned by a trust who let people rent it out. It is used a lot by the schools here and both our daughters have had the childhood 'a night on Lihou' experience.
And hats off to the quilt holder upper who had just been picked up from the airport having flown from half way round the world, missing a night's sleep and been told they would be going home via somewhere so a picture of the quilt could be taken :-)
Oh, thank you gracious quilt holder upper. Now, perhaps, you can grab a nap. :D Glad it was a pretty day for a pretty quilt.
ReplyDeleteMucho respect to the quilt holder upper! Lovely quilt and it's nice to see some sun :)
ReplyDeleteLooking good! Quilt holding assistant gets extra brownie points!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and so is the background!
ReplyDeletePretty quilt, beautiful landscape... Ah sky! Did you use the "potholder" method (seems so by the sashing on the back)? I am so curious about that method.
ReplyDeleteI love it!!!
ReplyDeletewhat is the blue on the backing??? it looks like denim colour.
