This is the maple leaf quilt down on the shore at Split Rock Lighthouse.
The kitty and oak leaf quilt. These were the oak leaves I won last fall at block lotto.
Both are ready to go to the quilter.
I better make sure they have some backing first.
It is hard to see the lighthouse in the pictures. This is what it looks like.
Going north from here, we ran into these giant chairs.
We were getting hungry
(and maybe a little crabby at this point)
so we drove north hoping to find something to eat.
(6 people, all with different ideas on what would taste good didn't help)
Split Rock was going to be the point we turned back south. But, this was the Fourth of July weekend
and everyone else thought driving the north shore was a good idea too.
So all the eating spots along the way were packed, and we just kept heading north.
In the end this was a good idea, or we might never have run into the chairs.
Too bad I didn't think to hang quilt tops on the chairs too.

A photo of one of the quilt tops on the chair (with no people in the farm) would have looked like you made a very intricate miniature.
Those chairs are WILD. What a beautiful drive you had (even if you were hungry). I'm envious.
OMG, Tell me more, tell me more. I have been trying to get the hubby to take the drive along the Canadian side of Lake Superior. I'm green here!
Oh, what fun photos! Love love love those chairs! (That photo reminds me of Lily Tomlin being the pouty little girl.) And the quilt tops are so gorgeous! What a perfect setting for them. I hope you eventually found something good to eat.
I never made it up to Lake Superior when I lived in Michigan. Looks like I missed a beautiful place. :(
Lovely quilts! The chairs are so fun - it would have been neat to have your quilt on the back of it. I'm hoping we can drive on the north shore when we are there in a few weeks.
I grew up in Michigan and have fond memories of driving the Superior shoreline . . . so glad you are loving the adventure!
