A couple months ago I posted photos of a little quilt I called Selvages I and now another, Selvages II, is done. Thank you Nancy in MI for sending me a large envelope of selvages in 2021!
Here's a detail of the center. Three small columns of selvages stitched by overlapping one on top of the other. I had two long strips of MarcusFabrics that I put above and below.
It's quilted in the ditch all around with three cables at the top and bottom connected by a single line of stitching on the sides.
The back is a fat quarter from the thrift shop. The piece is 17-1/2" x 19."
On June 2nd there was a beautiful sunset . . .
. . . but on the 7th you could barely see the mountains. The haze from the wildfires in Canada had infiltrated the area. We didn't see the sun until two days ago.
There is a woodpecker that stops at our feeder almost every day in addition to a red-winged blackbird and his mate. So fun to watch!
Wild Columbines at the top of our driveway.
Buttercups, too!
Still waiting for warmer weather :)
Enjoy your week!

What a neat selvage mini. Love your nature photos and it's too bad about the wildfire smoke!
ReplyDeleteCute selvage mini!! I hope by now the smoke has cleared out. We get that quite a bit in late summer and it is terrible. (and so bad for you!) Your wildflower shots are so pretty!
