...brought to you by our garden (big surprise!)
The husband continues to surprise me by adding odd flowers and plants to the garden. I never know what I'm going to find when I go out there! This time, I found this flower in one of the hanging pots:
This is called a Bat-face Cuphea (Cuphea llavea). It really does look like a bat! Odd flowers, but wonderful colors.
And I finally got a picture of the blocked Reflection Shawl:
It's on its way to audition for a new owner tonight. If it doesn't find a new home, it's off to the dye bath!
Up this weekend: Catch up on some sleep. I haven't been sleeping well and I'm a little zonked. I'll continue working on the two pairs of socks when I can. If it's not too hot, I think I'll hit the sewing machine and finish up the Flower Power quilt. It's about 50% quilted, so it's doable. A little reading, a little quilting, a little knitting...yeah, I think that will work for me. (Not sure if it will work for The Husband, though! LOL!)
