Jazz, Light, Montreal


This is the fifth challenge from our Urban series, and the theme was Light.  


I'd taken the photograph above while in Montreal enjoying the jazz festival, and I thought it would be a cool little quilt with light front and center.


I write more about this quilt on my regular blog, OPQuilt.com.  It will post November 1st, 2014.
