Art Quilt Tahoe - Arrival Day


The setting is far more beautiful than I imagined...

 
 ...on the shore of Lake Tahoe...
...which is a mighty big piece of water.

Very fresh and piney air...

  ...with sometimes the smell of wood smoke.

 Lots of boulders and rock formations...

...with ice forming on the puddles.

Frozen flowers...

...and leaves...

 ...still decked out...

...in autumn splendor.

The sound of waves from the white-capped water breaking on the rocks...

 ...and the scolding of a blue jay as the chill wind blew a flurry of snow flakes.

Today my surface design class with the incomparable Jane Dunnewold began - of which I will write more about tomorrow.  For now, good night!

  2. Beautiful... and love seeing the blue jay - very different from ours. I had a lovely pileated woodpecker this morning, right outside the window. Have a great time!
