Wednesday’s Flower

While I’m working on my aunt’s quilt, I am going to try to restrict the amount I get distracted from it by other projects.   So One Flower Wednesdays will be, for me, truly One Flower Wednesdays!  This week I decided to make another of the large ones with the 1″ hexagons.  The back:

Something must have told me I would end up making more than one of the Spring Circles quilts.  I have kept the fabrics I’ve used for it in a separate container, which I would not normally do.  It’s going to be quite simple to go through and cut the pieces for the beginning of the new Spring Circles quilt for us when I get the one for my aunt finished.

Tuesday was a very grey cool day here.  It was dark enough that we had to turn the lamps on almost as soon as we got up in the morning.  The cats found places to curl up and sleep.  Smudge with a teddy:

  1. Love the one flower! So glad you took a picture of the rooftop garden. What a wonderful place! This picture gives you such a different perspective on what it looks likes. Today I just want to curl up like Smudge and Lester. It is rainy, dreary, and cold.

  2. Perpetual flowers I would love to have in our garden ! As for the cats, I’m following their example: with these grey and rainy days, difficult to find energy and motivation to do something else then naps ! 😉

  3. Cute flower. I shan’t send you any enabling links for a while considering the fact that you have a much more important project at hand. 🙂

    Beautiful roof garden – I wouldn’t have known that it is way up high in the air!

  5. Cathi – I just love the picture of your rooftop garden – beautiful! Even though I love living in the country, park-like settings in the city landscape really make me feel good to! Thanks for sharing!

  10. I should send some warm weather your way–it’s been in the 80s to upper 80s in Georgia. The cats are all in their long stretched out poses on the floors to stay cool.
