Glorious textures of sand, sea and sky at Westport beach near Campbeltown, Kintyre.

Sunset at Westport beach. The tide was just creeping in and the colours and textures were fabulous!

The cup and ring marks at Achnabreck, Kintyre. These carvings are very mysterious, done between 5000 and 6000 years ago and no one has any idea why!
I have been going to do this for ages! My husband helped me to FINALLY get decent photos of the completely finished quilts from my Sottish collection. I have made a little book of the quilts with the original photos I too and used for inspiration . This is an ongoing project and I will be collecting some more photos soon to add to this quilting project :-) Hope you enjoy them. Stay tuned for more to come I hope, next fall and winter.
