Marmalade & Jam - DQS9 sent

Here are some decent photos of the quilt I mailed at the beginning of the week to my DQS9 partner. I hope she likes it.
This quilt was a challenge to photograph for three separate reasons. First I wanted to show the texture of the quilting.
Second, it's mainly a dark charcoal/black.
And third, the only coloured fabrics are opalescent fairy frosts, which reflect a lot of light - and blow-out badly on such a dark background.
It took a lot of trial-and-error, playing with positioning and focus to get these! And some work in Photoshop.
There's more information about the quilt here.
