After running a couple of errands this morning, I thought I would try for a few photos. This is one I finished up for my daughter, who said the blocks---rectangles---reminded her of kleenex boxes.
I found some deep shade in the front yard for a long view.
I used a large print fabric for the backing and added a computer label complete with cardinal.
A closer shot and less angle.
I just used wavy line quilting on this, so no good close up on that. The light is stronger in the back yard....but you can see why I call this one, Mod Boxes. I think the photos give a lot more interest to this very simple block quilt. And I need to try some late afternoon shots for better details. Count this as another learning lesson. Feel free to share your thoughts on the photos....just be gentle with me :o)
Happy stitching.

Very nice... the different views allow one to study the quilt. Love your cardinal on the label... I have yet to try making a computer label for a quilt... will have to give it a try on the next one!
I can see why your daughter think of tissue boxes! It is a lovely, simple but effective design.
I think you did a great job with the pictures of the beautiful quilt. I especially like the one on the wrought iron fence. Of course I love, love, love your quilt labels!
I love this quilt! What size are your blocks?
