Just a quickie from Taos
OMG it is SO beautiful here in northern New Mexico. The alders, the aspens and the cottonwoods are in golden yellow autumn colours. The light is amazing, the landscape and architecture breathtaking. Literally breathtaking as well: the altitude here in Taos is 7500 feet - about the same as the top of Mt Kosciusko, which is the highest point in Australia. So the air is thin, and any exertion leaves us lowland folk gasping a little.
But hey — no worries! And we've had r-a-i-n! And thunder and hail! A wonderfful day's drenching. We loved it.
:: Thanks for all your lovely compliments on the quilt. I do hope Larissa likes it. It'll arrive there tomorrow, so I'm hoping to hear.
Frogdancer: The design was our version of a Denise Schmidt quilt, which we adapted at random.
:: Gotta head off for dinner now — byee!
