\"LighthouseColllage\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a quilt by a Canadian quilter, featuring the Greens Point Lighthouse<\/a> on Letete Passage, going into Passamaquoddy Bay in New Brunswick. <\/p>\n

The funny thing is, I photographed this quilt at the exhibit in New Zealand<\/a> last month! <\/p>\n

The day before I saw this quilt, I had sailed on a huge ferry ship across Cook Strait<\/a>, traveling from the South Island to the North Island of New Zealand<\/a>. There was a lighthouse to guide the way, and so this quilt caught my eye the next day. <\/p>\n

Often inspirations come in clusters, and if we are paying attention, a group if ideas can fuel our creative juices for a long time. <\/p>\n

Even thought our business is in Colorado, we sell lots of fabric with lighthouses, ships, beaches<\/a> and marine life<\/a>. Often a quilt with a lighthouse, a ship and a beach will remind us of a memorable vacation on a coast…whether it is the New England Coast, or a beach off the Cook Strait<\/a>! <\/p>\n

Are you planning a trip to the coast, or do you have a great vacation memory involving a lighthouse or a boat? <\/p>\n

* this is a collage with a quilt by Leslie Forbes, and lighthouse\/beach themed fabrics from eQuilter.com <\/p>\n
