My back yard is pretty boring right now, so my daughter and I headed to the hills looking for some contrast for the quilt. I love the old barns in the background here.
This one shows the quilting. I did horizontal lines about every 1 1/2" or so.
Back down the hill to where it was a bit warmer . This old gate caught my eye.

This quilt is the first one off my list for the 2013 Finish Along. The last quilt I finished wasn't even on my list! I guess I should have planned that a little better.
Happy stitching today.

It looks beautiful and the setting for it is perfect.
Lovely! Thank you daughter for modelling -- I would have sworn you took those photos in Colorado, but I guess not, huh?
Lovely quilt! Great colors, perfect against the dark and white landscape. But oh, so brave, putting it on a barbed wire fence!
yay for the finish and love your photo shoot!
I love that first picture! The colors are beautiful against the winter backdrop. Nice finish!
Suddenly I have the urge to chew gum! ute quilt ...love the photo op!
A GREAT spot for photographing a colourful quilt! Love it. Chiclets is a perfect name for this quilt.
The quilt is gorgeous and the view amazing!

It's beautiful and I love the photos! Thanks for sharing.
I love how this one turned out. The background fabric is warm without pushing all that luscious colour into overdrive… Great quilting choice, too.
Beautiful helper (who looks like a mini-Carla!) and your quilt is absolutely gorgeous - Chiclets! Perfect name! The photoshoot looks like it was almost as much fun as making the quilt :) Have a great day Carla!
Beautiful finish and you picked the perfect location for your photos.
Lovely quilt and a great photo shoot :)
The quilt looks great finished!
Love the first shot, everything that kind of dull winter brown, and then this pop of colour from a gorgeous quilt!
Just lovely! Great pics too!
Great quilt! And what a great idea for places to photograph it!
Great setting for your beautiful quilt. Your daughter is a striking model, but isn't she cold? How can she look so relaxed shivering and freezing out there? See, that's how it is with us Southern girls, we'd wrap up IN the quilt and you wouldn't get a picture till spring!

Your pictures are gorgeous! I was hoping it would be nice outside for my quilt pics last week, but I had to settle for indoors. Great job on the quilt and the super-lovely pics!!
Gorgeous quilt and scenery!
Your helper and the quilt are lovely - lovely photo shoot!
