I was able to find the time, energy and desire to play with fabric today. I was given the border fabric from a very good friend and fellow quilter, and built inward. It was a bit challenging with the colors and Ladies gracing the borders….but, I like how it turned out.

She was hard to photograph….in the sun or in the shade, I couldn't get the colors to shine through, just right. But, you get the idea.

It was fun to play again, it seems like it has been months since I was free to just spend hours seeing what would come forth. I am not sure about the umbrella, but once the hat seemed like a rain hat, then the boots….and why not an umbrella.
And, yet the sky is blue. I wondered about this….she is covered and ready, walking the dogs, perhaps she sees clouds up ahead.
One more try on the woodshed….to see if I can pose her in a place that compliments her.

All in all a complex Lady quilt….there is lots to see and wonder about! Ladies in the border….and she is in and out….or out and in.
