Today we have warmer weather, sunshine and time. So Nellie and I went for a walk in the conservation area behind the store. It is a wonderful place to visit and we met lots of walkers and dogs on the trail. I took along my camera to record some signs of spring. There are a few quilting inspirations too.

Skunk Cabbage flowers, always a first sign. Love the lime green and deep red!

I took some photos of things that inspire modern quilting lines.
This bark makes me think of random lines and boxes. More parallel than not, I think.
Or wavier lines than ebb and flow towards each other and away.
Or concentric rings, quarter circles like a Baptist fan maybe.
Nellie and I had a great time. Would you like to join us sometime?!
Hubby and I took a similar walk earlier this evening, down behind the hospital in Strathroy. We saw skunk cabbage too, and also looked at a lot of bark patterns... (Hubby is a wood-worker - he knows his bark!)
