Where did the summer go?
It's November and the holidays are
coming at us...full speed!
This past summer I took a bunch of photos of my
antique kwilt collection, in various locations.
(using a Cannon point and shoot camera)
Many of these kwilts are family heirlooms
Some I found in antique store for a steal!
All are beautiful...All have a story
I wish I knew all the words; all the history.
Ready? Lots of photos coming your way.
I went to a garden party...
actually I hosted this one for some gardening friends.
Here is my deck and back yard.
Love the kwilts and flowers together!
Sun Bonnet Sue just waiting on the finches!
My pergola (with swing)
is a favorite setting for my kwilt photography.
The sun was setting - peeking thru the woods!

And my favorite place for summer photos was
at a shelter house at Blacklick Woods Metro Park
in Reynoldsburg, OH
for this photo opportunity. It was quite a job
to get these hanging by myself.

Light playing thru the trees...ready for a picnic.
Back at my deck again, some close ups of kwilts & flowers.
but I'm having a really fun time in this journey!!
I'm hoping Santa hit the lottery and will
bring me a new camera with lots of bells and whistles!
