Robin made this lovely blue Snowflake quilt using a pattern by Modern Handcraft. She adapted the pattern to make the full snowflake and added borders to make it a bed sized quilt.
I quilted it with the Bora Bora pantograph to give the feel of wind blowing all the snowflakes in the prints. Used white So Fine thread and white Quilters Dream 80/20 batting.
Robin brought a beautiful blue Grunge backing.
So I have been playing with my new macro lens which has a good learning curve when it comes to taking pictures in manual mode. Here are a few images I have captured so far in my yard.
Ctenucha Moth
Damselfly
Bees in the Snapdragons.
Bees in the Lupins
Delphinium
Geranium
Beautiful snowflake quilt! I love that pattern, I've made it twice now and will make another one this year. I think it's going to be my "yearly make" - it's so fun!
