You do very nice work. I am in awe of your seascape.
Did you "wing it" or use a photo or book for inspiration???
The pic of your son makes it that much more realistic.

I found a book that showed a different way of doing landscape quilts. It is all about free hand cutting curves. I enjoyed it so much I couldn't stop with one. I took a picture of some local mountains that I want to try and create with this method next.

Both are amazing! I really like the balance of colors/lights & darks in your husbands quilt.

Oh! The mountain quilts are amazing, too! I love your fabric choices in the first one, especially.

The second quilt ended up for my husband. It was just sampler squares we made at our quilt club. I changed out some fabrics in the squares and embroidered on some other fabric that I brought in to it. My husband likes it.
