I finished a lap quilt!

Chapel Porth, near St Agnes, Cornwall, UK

Morning everyone!  Remember I said I was trying to think of a way of photographing my hearty nine-patch for you?  Well, it was such a glorious day yesterday I decided to take it on a walk with me.  I drove the 3 miles or so to Chapel Porth, then went for a clamber over the rocks with the quilt stuffed in my rucksack.  The scenery and colours here are like nowhere else I know, and this view (left) takes my breath away every time I come around the sharp bend and down the steep hill of the valley towards it.

After I’d sat and watched the waves for a while, I made a start on up the high cliffs looking for what I hoped would be the perfect spot for a little photography.  And a cup of tea and a snooze.  I would surely need it after all that climbing and photography, deserve it even, don’t you think?

Ochres and pinks, a fabulous combination I think.

I could sleep on here for hours, daydreaming

A patchwork carpet up to Wheal Coates? Now that would be something.

You could count the hand stitched hearts

and wonder at the not so perfect ones!
