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.
