A Challenging Year Revealed!

Have you any idea what the quilt will look like? Lia’s guess was in fact my inspiration, the four seasons. I am fascinated with the changes deciduous trees go through during the year.

The bare branches against a winter sky look like lace.

 

The delicate flowers in spring ….

 

bear juicy fruit in summer.

 

 

 As the days grow shorter there is a riot of colour that warms my heart.

 

But autumn winds blow and the leaves take flight.

 

The winter snow flies and the cherry tree takes a long winter nap!

 

 



The cherry tree through the seasons.

 

 

 

 

Transitioning from season to season.

 

 

 

 

 

The centre of the quilt where all four seasons converge.

And finally the entire quilt. I give you A Challenging Year!
