Love the bugs!

Cris in MT

Thank you, Cris.  I will work on the idea a little more ... make smoother lines, etc.  At least I know direction to head in. All of them will probably have blue eyes ...

Love those lady bugs!

The ladybugs are so cute!

Geraniums are pretty much a winter plant here unless you take them inside in the summer.  I'm pretty much limited my planting to desert flowers.  There are some beautiful ones.  Lots of pretty yellow lantana blooming now.

Great double pinwheel quilt.  Very colorful.  Should make the baby notice.

Sometimes Bob strings those robo-callers along and sometimes he just answers "Maricopa County Jail, How can I help you?"  They hang up.

I remember you telling us that once before.  I thought it was so brilliant that, for a while, I was answering our robo-calls in my very best professional voice with "California Department of Corrections.  How may I direct your call?"    It was very satisfying. :-)

If I understand your reverse applique, you turned under your background fabric and appliqued it to the butterfly fabric?   Was it easier or more difficult than your regular needleturn?

Your clay figures should be fun to have in your  garden.  Should they be durable for the winter or will you need to bring them in?
