Flowers and a finish.

Some more flowers are out in our garden at Mt Vic. This beautiful orchid has come out just near the brake van. It's more by good luck than good management. The soil is pretty poor and it has had no attention but it must be just the right spot for it.

And we have a few tiny flowers on the crabapple tree that we planted about 2 years ago. Hopefully next spring there will be more.

Another quilt is finished. This is the quilt from the Bloom Creek Quilts book by Vicki Bellino. The quilt is called 'Sand Dollars', I think due to the fabric chosen. My verson really looks nothing like the original due to the fabrics I have used and the greater contrast between them. It was quilted by LG Quilting at Portland and once again they did a great job.

The fabrics in this quilt are really soft and smooth so its quite nice to snuggle into! I have also pieced the back to use up all the fabric left overs.

That's all for now. A thunderstorm is gearing up outside so I think its time to shut down and go and watch!
