Top and Bottom

 A finished top!  I ended up adding the strips of leftover fabric along each long side
 to widen  the quilt.  I liked the dark color around the outside!  
I need to find some fabric for the backing so this will have to go to the queue before quilting.
Yesterday I sat in the shade to do some knitting while I waited to pick up the boys. 
 The heat is making it hard to sit outside even if I am in the shade; 
 we are in full out steamy weather and it is not easy on my internal thermometer! 
 I love how the clouds are perfectly reflected in the river!

  1. Beautiful shot of the river! And I, too, really like the dark border on the quilt - very pretty!

    Our weather has moderated...but only for a couple of days. We are supposed to be in the thick of stickiness and humidity by the weekend.

  6. Beautiful quilt.

    We have really lucked out weatherwise so far this summer. We've had a few days of soul sucking humidity, but mostly it's just been beautiful. I've barely had the A/C on at all. I love it. That said, it's supposed to get hot and humid this weekend, and stick around for a week or two. :(
