Disappearing

After the heat -

- a short bike ride in the evening at 8 - but the clouds are threatening

.... himself (lying on the bench) is watching them ....

how they are gathering and where to

over the cornfield

 
it is not the blue sky - but the clouds.
At home my new quilt is waiting - I hang it up against the window -
I like how the light shines through
 
My seams are straight - but it happened that I did not always iron them
into the same direction.
In the middle I had to extend a patch - it can also
be seen against the light but no more when the quilt is finished
and lying on Christianes guest bed in France not far
from our "house of renovation".
This old quilt below is already there and both will live in the same room.
The specification was: Same size (156 x 225 cm) and
roughly the same colour. Now the yellow patches in the new one
are looking rather strong but I can reassure you without the light
behind it is much paler.

  6. Your new quilt is very nice, Anneliese and should play well with the existing one. It almost looks like stained glass up against the light. Those clouds are a wonderful shade of blue - very unusual.
