Fabric Sale

Lovely Batiks bought this morning in a fabric sale at quilt group, just right to make more Rattlesnake blocks.

 You need somewhat plainer batiks in the centres to make the points sharp. I saw this on Wanda's blog Exuberant Color
and my friend Ruth is making it too.

Hers will be spotty and all the more exciting for that!

And in the garden the honey scented Euphorbia Mellifera is in flower right next to where I park my car, and as you brush past it you get the lovely smell of honey. I grew this plant from seed shortly after we moved here and a stem fell to the ground and rooted so now we have two big plants along the side of the house.
