I finished stitching down the binding on the plaid zig-zag mystery quilt Sunday night and it was such a beautiful sunny day on Monday, I thought to take it outside for a photo.Of course, Johnny protested that I was outside in his territory without him.
It was perfectly calm UNTIL I hung the quilt over the wall of the upstairs deck ... I waited until the wind died down enough for the quilt to become mostly flat again. Here it is again, from a different perspective.
I'll be linking this post to the finishes party for A Lovely Year of Finishes later this month.

Very lovely finish Sophie! Those littl turquoise squares really make it pop...hugs, Julierose P.S. I envy your lovely weather--31 degrees and cooold here today--have to bundle up for my walk--I end up looking like "Nanook of the North lol"
That looks beautiful.
It is beautiful. I love the pop of color in the binding. Yep the same thing happens to me it can be very calm and the moment I try to take a photo of a quilt the wind kicks up.
Love the photography! I wish I had an upstairs adobe deck........
Great finish. I love the binding. It seems to reflect the plaid. I'm sure that wasn't a fluke.
Hugs
Great Pictures Sophie! This quilt looks like it would be SO snuggly!!
I love zigzag quilts. I've made two and love them both. I like your use of plaids.
What a great shot of your quilt hanging up there- you couldn't have chosen such a better colour than your adobe deck walls to hang it.
WONDERFUL quilt and AMAZING photos . . .
Love the scattered plaid colors. It looks great up close or far away. I miss that kind of architecture. And that color of sky. It's a more washed out blue here. Different latitude, I suppose. Congratulations on your lovely finish.
Love the plaids as well and Kitty..:)
It's a beautiful quilt with a very masculine feeling!
A great finish, Sophie. Being out in the sun made it look brighter. That was a nice setting you used. Thanks for linking to WIPs Be Gone. I like to see finishes, too as that WIP is Gone!
Love the finished quilt! It looks cozy and warm. . . and done! Doesn't New Mexico have THE most beautiful skies?!
A lovely finish!
