Termination Dust The Definition
This little quilt was my very first Batik. It's heavily quilted in Glow in the dark threads, so you still see the picture when the lights are turned out.
I Can't seem to find the photo of my large quilt named 'Termination Dust', eventually I'll find it & get it posted, but several have asked what I mean by "Termination Dust". It's what people in Alaska call that first snow that dusts the mountain tops 'terminating' the seasons without snow. They say we only have 2 seasons here, winter & road construction, so I guess it means that the snow is the beginning of the end of road construction.

OOoooo! I like it! I don't think I've ever seen that one.
Chris has new picts of Gage up.....he is a doll!
your first!! this is lovely Deb... really makes me feel like back in the woods in the northern lakes (canada) where we had a cottage when i was growing up.- i bet glow in the dark is fun.
Beautiful! Love this one and would like to see it with the lights out. Pretty cool.
Only two seasons, huh?
This is beautiful! No, it is beyond that--it is etherial somehow. I want to see it up close and personal someday.
I would never have thought of that. I like the phrase though - will have to use it around here too.
so wonderful love to see the glow in the dark
Another great little piece. I bet it looks lovely in the dark.
Beautiful quilt! I like the effect of looking through the window and the colors are gorgeous.
