Why Wine?

I realized I had not posted "Wine Styles," which I completed in March. Now it's in the gallery on the right. In case anyone is wondering, for a person who doesn't drink wine (it really doesn't agree with migraines!), we live in a development which is fashioned after Provence (I think it looks much more like Tuscany), so every home has its own little vineyard. People often say you can get your inspiration for quilts by looking around you. So I did. Hence, the fascination with wine-theme quilts.

Here is the view from the backdoor of our home. See, Italian cypress!
