Detail from "Winter on Whidbey Island"The quilt shown in the header is a work-in-progress from a class assignment. For me, winter on Whidbey Island is wind, rain and snow (especially wind) with the glory of surrounding mountains and visiting water birds to compensate for the weather.
The mountains shown are Mt. Baker, the Olympics and Mt. Rainier. The water birds shown are buffleheads, surf scoters and a loon in winter plumage.
Unfinished size: 21" high x 42" wide

Well - I'd say you got the hang of this very quickly!!!
Love the picture.
Very pretty! I like the wind.
What a beautiful quilt. I love it! Have you been quilting long? How do you come up with the designs?
Awesome quilt work Nancy and a very nice blog too!
Your quilt is beautiful--admire your work!
I've been quilting for 2-3 years, but I've been sewing (clothing, embroidery) since my early teens. I also have a fairly extensive art background. The designs come from my imagination and photo reference (Google Images is a great resource).
What a gorgeous blog you have!
