    What a blessing you listened to your guardian angel and preserved this lovely scene in such a beautiful way. Thank you for sharing such talent with us. I really admire you and your work.

    I love your barn quilt! I am a photographer of old barns & old buildings as well as lighthouses. One of my favorites was an old stone building that was the tower at a tiny airport; it was round. I just have to stop & take pictures. I wish I had taken pics of all the barns we passed as a child in the midwest; I'm sure many of them are gone now.
    I have no experience printing from a photograph to printable fabric. Any recommendations for the brand of printable fabric? My dad printed some pics from my parents European riverboat cruise & mom made a wall quilt from them; however the pics were kind of rubbery feeling. I am hoping to make a lap quilt for my great aunt with photos but want it to have a soft hand like regular fabric would.

    Wonderful! See there was a reason your angel had you stop that day. An image frozen in time will now live on.
