Several years ago, we purchased a

property in Muskoka which quickly

became the destination we retreat to

on weekends, for summer vacation and

even for winter getaways. Muskoka is

known for its rugged landscape and

natural beauty with windswept pines,

rocky shores and freshwater lakes. It’s a

sought-after destination for tourists from

around the world resulting in a growth in

Canadiana themed memorabilia.

The theme quickly became the motif for

the cottage décor. The first time we saw

the True North fabric line by Kate &

Bird for Moda, we knew this had to find

a place in our lives. The design of the

quilt was inspired by the simplicity of

the fabric line with the dense whole cloth

quilting, giving the appearance of a quilt

with a bed runner all in one.
