Another photo to fabric...waterlily quilt.

I love Waterlilies, I love photographing Waterlilies, and I love having my photos printed on fabric for me to quilt.

This is my latest waterlily quilt....from a photo taken by me at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square near Philadelphia, PA.   If you've never been there.....you simply must go.    I took this photo last year, and as I usually do, I sent it to Julie Brandon of Red-Dog Enterprises,  to print onto fabric.  I added a couple of fabrics, but mostly it is quilted as is...to add dimension and color!

Georgia's Pearl.....photo to fabric

My latest photo to fabric quilt.  Georgia's Pearl hibiscus. My little Sisterhood artist inspired group decided to take field trips this summer with our cameras and interpret one of our photos in textile.  This trip was to the Lamberton Conservatory in Highland Park in Rochestet, NY.   My photo was printed on cotton  by Julie Stern Brandon, owner of Red-Dog Enterprises, Inc, and  quilted and embellished with beads and crystals.  (There were raindrops that day)

Trip to Letchworth State Park.....looking for color,

Today was an absolutely awesome perfect weather day in western New York.   The leaves are turning, but aren't at peak quite yet.   Here are a few of only 268 photos I took today!    Some of my favorites while looking for color!

The Middle Falls

Upper Falls....a different angle than I usually photograph.   Might be my favorite

.

The dam at the Mt. Morris entrance,   Some of us remember the great flood in 1972 when the water came within inches of spilling over the top.   Amazing to think about but pretty frightening then.

I managed to get a rainbow at the fountain at the Glen Iris Inn,

Love the color in this,

Wolf Creek....one of my favorite spots.

The trestle bridge....perhaps an inspiration for a "lines and angles" quilt challenge.

The brave soul on the bridge today.   This is, by the way, illegal.
