Shay's Lake Lanier

I've just finished Shay's Lake Lanier quilt.  And please forgive my not-so-excellent photography skills... and by not-so-excellent, I mean totally lacking today!  Wouldn't you know it, as soon as I take the picture the wind blows... ugh!  Just forgive that little curling corner, it's not really curling.


And a few detail pics:

On the name block I added some black thread to make it appear like a distressed piece of wood.  The entire border/sashing is done as tree bark.  I just wanted this to stand out on its own.

And a special request by Shay was to have a duck stitched in the water on the ducks block - voila!




  You can watch me stitching this pinecone detail here.


This was a super fun quilt and I think it turned out pretty awesome!
