Quilting and nature.........

I got the roll of batting out and cut the piece for this X quilt.  I quilted and trimmed it and now just need to cut binding.  I think I will use more of the border fabric for that.

I did the straight line quilting again with So Fine thread in a taupe color on top.








My second orange cactus has one bloom.  There are 7 more buds so I'm hopeful I'll have more blooms soon.






This pink one has bloomed already this winter and had just one bud the second time around.







I was so happy I had my camera in the kitchen so I could snap a photo of this guy.  He has been eating at this feeder quite often but I never had the camera close by earlier.
