On Golden Pond

Hello Everyone,

Yesterday I said I would be making some plaid leaves.....and I did!  I'm often asked where I get my inspiration for color.  My response is always the same.....it's where you live, it's where you play, it's all around you.

This is where the grand kids play in the summer, Snowflake Lake.  It's just a tiny little lake five cabins down the trail from us.  It only looks like this just a few days during the year.  It's my "Golden Pond" and my inspiration for color.

Mr. Joe and I sat out on the dock and said our goodbyes to summer.  It's a special time and a special place.

I can see making a watercolor quilt from the reflections on the water.

.....this one too.

This time of the year our senses are flooded with color.  I just happen to see plaid!  I know, I know, I can hear you saying, "She's crazy as a loon....a plaid loon!"

Soon,
Lynn
