Quilts hung and empty nest.

Official first quilt to be hung in the new house.  Now I have had a couple small quilts up already, but they were put there with tacks for temporary enjoyment.  This quilt is in the bedroom, my Baltimore Cousins quilt, and it fits perfectly above the bed between the two windows.  For the first time since I finished this quilt, it is in a location that allows all the blocks to be seen. 










This is the quilt room with a couple more quilts on display.  The lighting in here was a little lacking, so the light fixtures you see are all new.  They are LED and linked together.  They provide totally awesome lighting.  We installed a gridwall in the closet to accommodate my collection of thread cones and the smaller mini-cones are on racks behind the door.

 

The Mamma dove was having a hard time fitting in the nest with her two babies.  It was hard to see up there, so I am not sure exactly when these two hatched, but based on the size of the eggs, I am presuming these guys were up there much longer than I was aware.  This afternoon I went out with my selfie stick to prepare to take another closer look and the two of them flew off together right in front of me.  

Empty nest means we can now take this light fixture down and replace it with the new one we have been waiting to install when they flew the coop.
