Beauty Shots of the Spools Quilt

One of the things I wanted to do when I was in California was take some beauty shots of the Spools quilt I made for my son and DIL.  My son and I went for a walk one morning and found this spectacular tree. When he told me it was his favorite (and how could it NOT be?) I knew it was the place to photograph the quilt.

I took a lot of pictures, but I like this one best, because you can see a bit of the back. This spot was only two miles away from the beach, and it was a breezy day. I spent a lot of time rearranging the quilt because the wind was blowing.

 Here's another good one, but I think the top one is the one.

When I got back to the house, I thought I'd take a picture of the quilt spread out on the ground, but my son's dog, Helo, had other plans.

It was pretty funny. He just couldn't leave it alone, and had to roll around all over the whole thing.  And I thought only cats claimed ownership of quilts!

What a wonderful tree for your photo shoot. Pretty nice quilt too; I like the different size spools---so Lynneish.

It is a fabulous quilt on a fabulous tree. And the dog? My concern is: what happened to his two cats?
