When I brought the trays of 2" squares upstairs I brought the 1.5" trays too. Once I get started in colorwash I don't want to stop. Yes I'm possessed. I made a third one with the 2" squares. All 3 on the bottom row are the same size as the one in the middle. I'm just not tall enough to get them all in one shot. First I made the checkerboard piece from the 1.5" squares that aren't as desirable for colorwash. Then I did the other colorwash. These will all be mug rugs but the top 2 will be more expensive because of the extra time it takes to sew all of the pieces.
My plumbing and heating guy said my new boiler would be put in this week but he didn't say which day. He finally called while I was out digging up hostas to say it will be Thursday. I needed to dig the hostas because they would have been in total sun now with the trees gone. I divided them into as many plants as I could and potted them. I have someone who is moving to a new house that might want them. I watered them and they perked up after I took this photo.
Now for the daily cacti shot: 2 white blooms fully opened with one to go and a red one in the background.
I was surprised how tall the violets had gotten in just a few days so I picked a little bouquet for my kitchen window sill.
