Inspiration by nature…

I couldn’t resist taking a few more pictures of leaves. As I was walking the dog tonight I spotted the vibrant array of leaves in my friend Ginny’s yard and couldn’t resist snapping a shot. The photo above may be one of my favorite pictures of all time. I think of how challenged I am when it comes to picking out colors to make a quilt…and how easy it really is if you turn to nature for inspiration. I took the photo below as I was walking under the tree.
