It continues to rain daily here...have noticed lots of moths that I hadn't seen before.
This one is a sort of brick color with large "eye" spots on the wings. I was told it may be an Owl moth. Very pretty! We also has some Lunar moths and a very large purple one that I haven't found the name for yet...

I made a king-size quilt... once. Anytime I think I need to make another... I remind myself of the 1st one... *lol*
I love the pattern and the colour. It seems to remind me of the beach. And I must congratulate you for making this quilt. It is beautiful. How long did you make it?
